“We enjoyed our stay at Casa Riviera Unit 18. The bed was very comfortable, and we enjoyed relaxing in the living room. The location in Santa Barbara was ideal--easily walk to the beach, Funk Zone, and State Street, as well as other locations. The communication from management was wonderful; they were very responsive when we had trouble with the thermostat after we arrived. The management even arranged a room refresh for us (we stayed for 5 nights), which was very appreciated. Thank you very much!”
