Sweet Queen Retreat in Downtown Los Olivos.

This well-designed apartment with its private coded entry offers comfort and convenience whether you want to stay in and relax or take a quick walk to the town's renowned wine tasting scene just a few minutes away on foot. Inside this sweet studio you'll find a welcoming lower level queen bedroom and two separate raised areas: one with a tub/shower combo bathroom and the other a lounge area with a convenient counter and sink area including a mini fridge, microwave and a full stash of coffee-making equipment including K-Pod. Much of the art and furnishings were designed and handcrafted by the hosts incorporating deconstructed oak barrels to give it a one-of-a-kind wine country feel.

Outside you'll enjoy the peace and quiet of our lush back yard relaxing under the shade of two gorgeous mulberry trees in a semi-private outdoor sitting area complete with a mini propane fire pit for those chilly valley nights. While the hosts live in the front house and sometimes walk through the back yard, guests will typically have it to themselves - especially in the evenings. Feel free to wander out by car to enjoy the beautiful rolling hills of the surrounding Santa Ynez Valley and all it has to offer (wineries, casino, hiking and biking and Solvang "The Danish Capital of America" to name a few). Your dedicated parking space will be there when you return so no need to hassle with the limited parking in town. To make your stay extra special we like to bake delicious treats for our guests!

Perfect!

One of the best places we have ever rented. The apartment was very comfortable and had a nice layout. Mia has thought of everything, lots of little touches that enhance your stay, especially her delicious baked goods. The location is great, close to town, shopping, wine tasting and highly rated restaurants all within a block. We had a very relaxing weekend and can’t wait to return.

Great little studio

The hostess was great. She left me cookies and had half & half for my morning coffee in the fridge. Quiet spot and enjoyed sitting on the patio with a glass of wine. Easy walk to the Wine Tasting in Los Olivos and restaurants. I would recommend a stay.

Our stay at Casa Rivera was amazing! Mia was easy to communicate with, super helpful, and made sure we had a wonderful stay. She even baked us delicious angel biscuits and delivered them fresh out of the oven! The space was exactly as described and was the perfect cozy getaway within easy walking distance from all the incredible wine tasting rooms and restaurants of Los Olivos.

Perfect spot for a wedding weekend!

I stayed at Mia’s studio apartment to is past weekend and it was perfect. Exactly as listed, clean, comfortable, and well-equipped. Plus only a short 1-block walk into town. And she even brought homemade scones to me one morning! The perfect spot to stay if hotels in town are sold out or you are looking for a more modest accommodation. Highly recommend.

Fantastic location and immaculately clean.

Mia was an amazing communicator. She left us delicious cookies and extra ice due to a heatwave. The unit is adorable and well appointed. It is one of the cleanest places I have ever stayed. The outside seating area was private and cute. She gave us great recommendations on dinner and tastings. She’s also quite the musician as we were lucky enough to see her perform at local business. I highly recommend staying here.

Fantastic Stay!!

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay!! The room is cozy and bright and the artwork (all hand-made by the hosts) is beautiful. Mia was a terrific host. She made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived, greeting us with delicious cookies and it just got better from there! We especially enjoyed the little patio, where we enjoyed a quiet afternoon. The property is within convenient walking to all of Los Olivos. We highly recommend.

Fabulous Vaca!!!

The owner of the property was fabulous! She was communicated with us well on our day of arrival, to make everything seamless. And so unexpectedly, she made us biscuits & jam for my boyfriend… & because I’m gluten free made the yummiest best blueberry scone I’ve ever eaten! We would definitely go back!!

Felt like we were at home

Everything about this stay was first class. The studio is well appointed with everything you will need for your stay. Mia and Bryan are available for any questions or needs you may need. The warm chocolate chip cookies that were waiting on check in were delicious. Mia treated us also to homemade streusel coffee cake one morning. We are looking forward to our next visit to Los Olivos, and hope this studio will be available when we visit again.
