SeaRanch Montecito was truly a villa resort and an amazing property. Beautiful grounds, landscaping and outdoor social and activities area were great for our party of twelve. Rooms and layout was great affording privacy and separation for the family to enjoy and relax. The outdoor kitchen with pizza oven was phenomenal and made for a great evening family meal preparation making pizzas and eating under the covered table in the evening. The fire pits, outdoor music, tiki torches, and comfortable seating areas were ideal for relaxing and socializing with the family. Loved the e-bikes, surfboards, and trampoline, in addition to the gorgeous pool, for fun, outdoor activities. Blake was an awesome host, giving recommendations for the area and responding to any requests very quickly. We are planning additional family reunions in the coming years and I know everyone would want to return to SeaRanch. It was great!!

Wow, what a beautiful property and what an incredible host. Blake was not only the best host we had ever had , he exceeded expectations and was a great human being. Blake made our annual family vacation one we will never forget. The house and property were fully stocked with everything and anything you could think of. As far as cooking goes , I was speechless when we were shown the kitchens both indoor and out. The grounds and house are Iconic being the most well maintained property we have stayed at. We wanted for nothing as there is plenty of activities in and out for the whole family. We stayed active as a family unit while each getting our special times alone. The beds are truly comfortable and felt new and clean. All family members were well rested and content. The firepits were a big hit along with the tiki torches at night. The Ambiance can't be beat at this place and we've stayed at quite a few houses. Blake , thank you for treating us like family!
