"As always, we had a great time in Santa Barbara with the comfort and conveniences that Wendy's properties offer. We have stayed in three of her properties and they have everything you need to make your stay perfect. We will return again. Many thanks to Wendy and Chuck.

"We had such a wonderful week in Santa Barbara and we are sad to leave. Lilyhaven is in the perfect spot for a walk to State St., but also really handy to access the freeway. Lily Haven is more of a "Home" than a holiday rental, with the peace and privacy that couldn't be matched in the best hotels that money could buy. I must say we saw more wildlife in the garden of Lily Haven than some of the state parks we have visited, and it is so relaxing. Many thanks Wendy and Chuck for allowing us to share your wonderful home. TEN OUT OF TEN!! " - Richard J., Hampshire, En, 01/05/2012 (VRconnection Guest Feedback)
"Thank you for sharing your lovely home! Santa Barbara is so beautiful and we spent hours walking--to the Mission (wonderful!), exploring downtown State Street...Our son and friends are experiencing their first 'sunny' Christmas holidays in 5 years (east coast) and love it!" - Susan D., Altadena, CA, 12/29/2011 (VRconnection Guest Feedback)
"We had a very enjoyable Christmas vacation. The beds are superb, the rooms nicely appointed, and the location is terrific. We would like to return some day." - Martha M., Arlington, VA, 12/26/2011 (VRconnection Guest Feedback)
""Better than staying in a hotel." Secret Garden HideAway was a fabulous place. The owner Wendy was very helpful and friendly . The house is beautiful both inside and out. I would recommend this place and hopefully in the future stay there again. Location of house near restaurants, downtown Santa Barbara and near highway 101.

""Home away from Home (the way you wish your own home was)" We spent a week with our young kids (ages 6 and 8) at Lily Haven in October and can't say enough good things about it. It was a great location (a healthy walk to downtown's State Street), a beautiful and relaxing garden setting and a quick drive to a fantastic local beach. The house has a great layout with 3 separate private room/bathrooms. We were sad to leave but are looking forward to visiting again.
