Santa Barbara Beach Getaways

Santa Barbara vacation rentals are a great way to spend your time in southern California. With the Santa Ynez Mountains towering upwards of 4,000 feet behind the city, the views are always spectacular, from sunrise to sunset. The principal city in Santa Barbara County, Santa Barbara is often known as the "American Riviera," possibly due to its Mediterranean-like climate. The city is easily accessible with its position only an hour northwest of Los Angeles. Furthermore, you'll know when you arrive in Santa Barbara: most of the architecture is crafted in a beautiful Spanish Colonial style, with dozens of beautiful, red terra cotta tiled roofs throughout the city. To preserve this image, the city has no billboards, and has strict guidelines regarding the signs businesses can use.
