It was clean and well decorated and the pool area was perfect for our large group to hangout, sit by the pool, play cornhole and grill. But what makes this property stand out for me is how well appointed the kitchens were. We had a group of 8 people and chose to cook a few of the nights. It was amazing to have enough plates, glasses etc. for all of us to eat. On top of that the house had serving platters, salad bowls, grilling tools, spices, etc that made cooking so easy and convenient. The pool and hot tub were always warm and easy to use. Overall, they thought of everything to make this the best and easiest stay so we were able to relax together and not worry about the small stuff! ##### Ashley E. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Betty J. Jun 8, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Celebrating 25 Years Book Group We loved the ample seating arrangements: breakfast in the main house and lunch in the middle house or around the pool. We had three friends who got a one-day stomach virus at different times who drank coffee made with the tap water. We felt most comfortable drinking bottled-water, because we were unsure about the tap water or the filter-cleaning process on the filtered water. The house and location are great. We went on a whale trip, a trip to Solvang, and a docent tour of Lotusland. The weather was close to perfect. Java Junction is very convenient, delicious food, and very busy. We are thinking about coming again in the future. Thank you for your personal introduction to the house and the quick turnaround for a highly-sought home. ##### Betty J. Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Ralph V. Dec 4, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Thanksgiving at Los Arboles Ranch Things got off to a poor start when a property manager called me as I was about a half an hour away and told me that he had checked everything, and all was in working order. When we arrived, and one of our grandchildren wanted to use the hot tub, we discovered that that the water temperature was in the sixty degree range and that the unit was inoperable. Our check-in was on Sunday. The unit was finally repaired by Wednesday. Other problems included: Leaking gas in the front left burner of the second kitchen. Foul smell in one of the bathrooms of the main house. Broken ice makers in both refrigerators A large bed room was inadequately heated by a very small plug-in heater. The adjoining bathroom had no heat whatsoever. The oven door in kitchen #2 did not close completely. The coded door lock on the front door refused to operate, even though we bought new batteries for the mechanism. In spite of these problems. we praise the owner for including so many dishes, glasses, utensils , cooking accessories, which made preparing a Thanksgiving feast for nine as easy as possible. The games provided were wonderful with lots of extra ping pong balls, beach towels, shuttle cocks, etc., to keep things moving. The fir pit and living room fireplace were a big hit. Only one of our grandchildren was brave enough to go swimming in the pool, but I have no idea what the temperature was. In sum, our overall experience was a good one, but for the price paid, we expected more careful inspection. ##### Ralph V. Stayed 7 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Felix R.

For a group of friends, this place feels perfect - the pool, hot tub, the little badminton court, the ample outside seating is all quite perfect. Rooms were clean, the beds very comfortable.If there was one thing to note, it's that the equipment and building is a little older - we couldn't quite get the BBQ to work, for instance - but I think the place is still amazing value. Would come back any time! ##### Felix R. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Louis M.

We had no issues during our stay and the staff even shipped back an item we forgot, which was very helpful. The only downside was learning afterward that I could have booked directly through Paradise Retreats and avoided the Vrbo fees. ##### Nestor E.

Our gathering at this spacious, yet “cozy” location was remarkable. Each of our family members (ranging in age from 9-75) was delighted with all the choices and activites we had at our disposal! Exceptionally equipped and well thought out, the vacation home was perfect for our gathering. Very grateful for our relaxed and successful stay! ##### Chris C. Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2025
