Casita del Sol, a one of a kind Southern California Beach Front Home with views and privacy unparalleled in Ventura and Santa Barbara County is located between Santa Barbara and Ventura on Pitas Point, also known as Faria Beach. Faria Beach is known as one of the premier surf points in Southern California. Here the mountains meet the sea, and you can experience Southern California coastal living at its finest.

When you step through the door of Casita del Sol, you are transported to a tropical world. You will look through the gourmet, state of the art kitchen, through the lush living room decorated with tropical plants in South Pacific style, across the spacious patio and deck, and out across the tranquil ocean. Unpacking can wait.....pop open the complementary bottle of champagne waiting for you in the refrigerator, kick off your shoes and relax. Did you come from snowy New England or the freezing Midwest? Slide into the steaming jacuzzi on the patio and decompress, champagne in hand, and watch the surfers and dolphins in the ocean. Did you come from a hot humid city baking in the summer heat? Relax in the sauna and let the steam open your pores. Or the cool, damp and rainy Pacific Northwest? Stretch out on the deckchairs and bake in the sun. Casita del Sol has it all: privacy, elegance, luxury.... all the beach activities you could desire, yet minutes away from elegant Coast Village Road in Montecito, or shopping on State Street in Santa Barbara. The best in fine dining, beaches, surfing, plus whale watching, fishing, beachcombing, kayaking, the list never ends. Casita del Sol is your gateway to the finest in Southern California living.

The exclusive gated community of the Faria Beach Colony provides privacy and seclusion not commonly associated with beachfront property. Here you can come to relax, surf, play tennis on our private court, ride bicycles along the coast bike path, walk the beach, gaze at brilliant starlit skies, or just sit on the deck and watch surfers, whales, pelicans, and dolphins while you feel the romance and energy of the ocean.

Geographically located in an area known as California's "Banana Belt," one can expect some of the best weather in Southern California. This area is less exposed to wind, fog, light pollution, and cold weather. This house (one of a few) is located right on Pitas Point, so you can expect to see schools of dolphins, whales, vintage and high performance aircraft, and surfers. Most local surfers feel that Pitas is better than the world famous Rincon just 8 miles north. Walk 150 yards to a 2 mile sand beach ending at Hobson’s State Beach. Relax in the private enclave of the Faria Beach Colony, and enjoy comfort and ambiance that is guaranteed to make you wish you never had to leave.

At 65 miles north of Los Angeles, 20 minutes south of Santa Barbara, and 10 minutes to either Ventura or Carpinteria, this rental is very centrally located to all major airports, shopping, theme parks, wineries, and fine restaurants.
