Short-term rental cleaning services
Airbnb and VRBO cleaning services for Santa Barbara hosts
Whether you rent out a Montecito estate, a Funk Zone condo or a beach cottage in Carpinteria, we take the cleaning off your plate so you can focus on bookings.
Turnover cleaning
A full clean between every guest: kitchen, bathrooms, bedrooms, living areas and floors, finished with a walkthrough so nothing is left behind for the next arrival.
Deep cleaning for rentals
Seasonal or pre-listing deep cleans that reach baseboards, ceiling fans, window tracks, inside the oven and refrigerator, and grout. Ideal before peak summer season or a new listing photo shoot.
Linen and towel changes
Every bed stripped and remade hotel-style and fresh towels set out, using the linens you keep at the property, with on-site laundry when the home has a washer and dryer.
Restocking and guest-ready staging
We refill toilet paper, soap, paper towels and coffee from your supplies, set out your welcome items and stage each room to match your listing photos.

Coastal rentals
Why beach rentals need more than a quick wipe-down
Guests come to Santa Barbara for the ocean, and they bring a bit of it back inside. Our turnovers are built for coastal homes.
- SandEntryways, rugs, sliding door tracks and couches get extra passes so the next guest never finds the last guest’s beach day.
- Salt airGlass doors, windows and mirrors are cleaned streak-free so your ocean views look like the listing photos.
- Outdoor spacesPatios, decks and outdoor furniture are swept and wiped down, because guests spend as much time outside as in.
- Fresh airWe air out closed-up rooms and check for musty smells that can cost you a review.

FAQ
Vacation rental cleaning questions
How much does vacation rental cleaning cost in Santa Barbara?
It depends on the size of the rental, the number of beds to change, whether linens are washed on-site and how tight the turnover window is. After a quick walkthrough we give you a flat per-turnover price, so you can build it into your cleaning fee. Call 805-702-1300 for a free quote.
Can you clean between a same-day check-out and check-in?
Yes. Tell us your check-out and check-in times and we schedule the turnover inside that window so the home is ready before your next guest arrives.
Do you work with Airbnb and VRBO hosts and property managers?
Yes. We clean for individual hosts with one property and for managers with several. Share your booking calendar or send us check-out dates and we will plan turnovers around them.
Do you change the beds and handle linens?
Yes. We strip and remake every bed and change the towels using the linens you keep at the property. We can wash and dry them on-site when the rental has a washer and dryer.
Do you restock guest supplies?
Yes. We restock toilet paper, soap, paper towels, coffee and other essentials from the supplies you keep on hand, and we let you know when anything is running low.
What happens if a guest leaves damage or something is missing?
We note it during the final walkthrough and send you photos right away, so you can file a claim with your booking platform and fix the issue before the next stay.
