What a former Guest says about the Hourglass:

"The Hourglass is the most lovely place to stay! Nestled in Mission Canyon, you feel like you are
away from the city, yet you are only a few minutes - walking, biking or driving - from so many
beautiful Santa Barbara sights! In addition to the beautiful, high quality interior and design of
this amazing one bedroom hide-away, the Hourglass comes fully equipped with everything you can imagine you might need during your stay. Too many items to list! You will not be disappointed.

There is a lovely deck outside the front and bedroom doors overlooking the canyon, including your own private patio, with patio table and chairs, private "always hot" hot tub, bbq, and lounge chairs for soaking up the warm SB sun. All you need to bring is your suitcase and you're ready for the most fabulous Santa Barbara visit of your life! I highly recommend this property to friends, family and professional acquaintances.

The property owner, Wendy, is very professional, detail-oriented, and is so wonderful to work with. I absolutely look forward to my next stay at the Hourglass! Enjoy" Susie
S., Goleta, CA December2007-May 2008

"A wonderful place to stay on the last leg of our California vacation. The Hourglass is very comfortable and thoughtfully equipped--we really loved the hot tub! We will hopefully return someday soon!" Steve C., Doncaster, England, Sept. '09

"The Hourglass was the perfect accomodation for the two of us. Everything that we needed was provided. The area's quiet provided time for relaxation after a day of exlporing the area. If we return to Santa Barbara in the future, we would be pleased to stay at your property again. Thank you!" Wendy G., York, PA, Nov. '09

Amazing Accommodations

Review submitted: April 25, 2013   Date of arrival: April 19, 2013

What amazing accommodations! Such a relaxing & peaceful retreat, we couldn't have asked for a more pleasant stay. The Hourglass will forever be a very special place for us since we got engaged here over the weekend!! We look forward to coming back every year to celebrate! Thank you for everything.

Lovely, Quiet, Restful

Review submitted: November 12, 2012   Date of arrival: October 27, 2012

Hourglass was a lovely retreat for us. Quiet, restful, yet minutes away from the restaurants and theaters of State Street. We were delighted to see the spacious closet and the well appointed kitchen. We especially liked the openness, the un-cluttered decor, the cozy living room, and the comfortable bedroom.
We left feeling rested and refreshed (a feeling revived when we remember our wonderful stay). We will definitely try to stay there when next in Santa Barbara.

We Wanted For Nothing!

Review submitted: May 10, 2012   Date of arrival: April 9, 2012

The Hourglass cured my writer's block! We expected a beautiful property, but we had no idea what was in store...This house has all the comforts of home AND the elegant minute details of a hotel suite. If we come back to S.B. we most certainly will rent here again! Thank you for the love you have put into this place; we wanted for nothing! --May M., Villa Park, CA
