Welcome to Adventures at Arroyo Burro; your sun-drenched summer getaway in the heart of Santa Barbara’s beloved beachside neighborhood, the Mesa! Just a short stroll to the sandy, dog-friendly shores of Hendry’s Beach and the ocean view trails of the Douglas Family Preserve; this charming 1,300 sq. ft. home is made for beach lovers, outdoor explorers, and relaxation seekers.
Step inside to find three cozy bedrooms and two full bathrooms, along with a flexible bonus room that’s perfect as a workspace, playroom, or extra sleeping area. Stay connected (or stream your favorites) with lightning-fast Wi-Fi and smart TVs throughout, while one bedroom is kept screen-free for true unplugged rest. The kitchen is fully equipped for summer cooking—blend smoothies in the morning or mix cocktails to enjoy on the patio.
But the real magic? The beautiful backyard! This private outdoor haven is framed by lush tropical landscaping and features a hot tub, a cozy gas fireplace with colorful Spanish tile, and stylish lounge seating, ideal for enjoying warm Santa Barbara evenings. Dine alfresco, toast under the stars, or soak after a day of surf and sun—it's your personal slice of paradise.
The home also includes parking for two vehicles in the driveway, with additional street parking available. From this peaceful base, you're just minutes from vibrant dining scenes, local shopping, wine country day trips, and coastal sailing adventures.
We're proud to welcome well-behaved dogs (sorry, no cats), and happy to help you plan your perfect summer vacation. Whether you're chasing sunsets, paragliding above the coast, or simply lounging in the backyard with a cold drink, Adventures at Arroyo Burro is ready to make your Santa Barbara escape unforgettable!

Comfortable, Well-Equipped Home in a Quiet, Pet-Friendly Location
by RitaWe had a great time at the property, very nice home, quiet location, short walk to the beach and beach side restaurant. The house is very well equipped, kitchen, bathrooms .. nothing is lacking and the beds are super comfortable. It was nice that the property is pet friendly, our son and family lives in SB and they could come over with their 4 legged family member for dinner after work. Close enough to town for outings during the week and we really appreciated the backyard and BBQ .. overall a very beautiful week stay. Thank you
Perfect Family Getaway Near Hendry's Beach
by MichaelGreat spot to get away with the family. Close to Hendry’s Beach and its amazing restaurant and bar. We hiked the nearby trails, we enjoyed the smoothing jacuzzi in the peaceful backyard, and we melted into the super comfy mattresses afterwards. Highly recommend this spot.
Would visit again
by JosephVery nice
Great location, bright and clean house!
by DavidThe house is everything you see in the pictures—and so much more! It's located in a very quiet neighborhood, just a short walk from one of the most beautiful dog-friendly (even off-leash) beaches in California. Cozy and perfect for a relaxing stay!The hot tub is actually newer and more modern than it appears in the pictures
Perfect Home in a Quiet Neighborhood – Highly Recommend!
by GraceThis house was perfect! It was clean, plenty of room for everyone to enjoy a comfortable space. Great, quiet neighborhood with close access to State Street. Added bonus, there is a beach just blocks from the house. Would definitely rent again. I highly recommend this house!!
Lovely Home in a Prime Location
by KristenBeautiful home in an amazing neighborhood, walking distance to the beach and hiking. Great backyard space with comfy seating, beautiful nighttime lighting, and a great fireplace. Very easy access to town with great restaurants, short drive to anywhere in SB, but located in a nice quiet neighborhood. Do not miss sunrise and sunset at Hendry’s Beach or at the Douglas Family Preserve above it. Great walking trails and dog-friendly (off-leash dog areas on the beach and within the preserve)!
Clean, Cozy Home in an Amazing Location!
by AmyWe stayed in December 2024. The house was clean and well-equipped. Very nice gas fireplaces inside and out. The big draw is the location! It’s just down the road from Hendry’s beach and the park. Would definitely stay again !
Convenient, Clean, and Great for Holiday Cooking!
by PattyEnjoyed the house much. Very convenient to all places we wanted to go. Kitchen was good to cook in since we cooked a holiday dinner. The coffee was great. Very nice and clean except for a couple of pots that needed rewashing. Definitely recommend!
Clean, Comfortable, and Great for Indoor-Outdoor Living!
by KristinaGreat place to stay! We enjoyed outdoors and comfy inside. Beds were all comfortable and the place was very clean.
Pleasant stay at Arroyo Burro
by MaryClean and easy place to stay. Quick walk to the beach and busy restaurant right there on the beach. Walking distance to Douglas Family Preserve and Elings Park.
Pleasant, Clean Home in Quiet Neighborhood Near the Beach
by KirkThe house is pleasant and clean and located in a quiet residential neighborhood within walking distance to the beach. Kitchen was well appointed and had all of the necessities. Furnishings were good. Back yard is nice with an area to sit next to a gas fireplace, an outdoor dining table, and a hot tub. Didn't have much reason to communicate with the property manager. Pre-check in communications were fine. All in all, stay was fine. This is a good mid-range option.
Beautiful Home Base in Santa Barbara—Close to Beach and Amenities!
by KevinThis is a beautiful place! Our family stayed in Santa Barbara for a week and this was an excellent home base. The neighborhood is lovely, the beach is within a short walking distance (+restaurant), and the kitchen and hot tub were very nice.

Cozy, Peaceful Home with Lovely Backyard and Clear Instructions
by ElizabethThe house was great. Very cozy and peaceful. Lovely backyard with fireplace for hanging out. Fenced-in yard. Very clear instructions about how to work things.
Lovely Home with Great Amenities—Perfect for Family Gatherings!
by DebVery nice house. Our family gathered for a wedding— 6 adults and one dog. Although we did not cook, the kitchen was very well equipped — much better than average rentals. The beds were comfortable and the hot tub was a big hit. Lovely back yard. Those who were working found it a comfortable place to work. Highly recommend.
VRBO Review
by JosephWe stayed here with family for UCSB graduation weekend. This is a great home in a nice residential neighborhood near the beach. The unit was incredibly clean and in perfect condition. The jacuzzi and gas grill were added bonuses. The kitchen is well appointed with pretty much everything anyone could need. It is not cheap, but you will get what you pay for. Highly recommend!

Airbnb Review
by Helen & GeoffPerfect place for a family's needs in SB! Having been born and raised here, we specifically chose this location for many reasons. Great hosts!!
VRBO Review
by BridgetWe had a great time at this property. It was well stocked with everything you need to enjoy SB and this home. Hendry's Beach was a fun easy walk and the restaurant there has yummy food! We also loved walking in the preserve. Beautiful vistas from there to enjoy and lots of dogs. The hot tub was nice to come back to and the kitchen had everything we needed. The store is an easy drive from the house for anything you could need. It was great that our two teens got their own rooms (comfy beds) and we enjoyed playing board games that were there. Would love to stay again when we are back in SB!
VRBO Review

Airbnb Review
by SandraThis is a comfortable house. The very-private backyard was a highlight and we made good use of the outdoor fireplace. The beds and linens were great too. We would stay here again.
VRBO Review

Airbnb Review
by LynnWe enjoyed our stay so much! This home had everything we needed... and more! The outdoor space is fantastic with great evening lighting. Initially, we had a few homes to choose from and are so glad we chose this one. It was even better than we expected! Also, the beds were comfy, there were plenty of linens, towels etc and even a game closet! Thank you for letting us stay here! Truly a wonderful week here.
