Read what people are saying about the properties and people of Lionheart Santa Barbara.


I am a frequent business traveler to Santa Barbara for many years, always renting a “vacation” home. Annick has been my “go to” person for the last 10 years. I have always found her to be extremely helpful to finding the right home.
Annick has always held herself to a higher standard than any other agent or agency I ever dealt with in the past. She has an expert eye for detail and possesses a high level of customer service that is rarely seen today. She has always gone over and above the call of duty when taking care of her clients. I am grateful to have met her a decade ago, as she has made my visits to Santa Barbara stress free and enjoyable. She is truly the most professional agent I have ever met. No need to call anyone else.

Thank you for creating a “little gem in the woods” where we could make memories.
— Alistair and Ronel (Guest, Canada/South Africa)
We can freely say: a wonderful place for a vacation. We really love Casa Foresta and Santa Barbara as well. Amazing hiking tours through the mountains, the wonderful beaches of Santa Claus lane and Arroyo beach and of course—Fiesta! We will never ever forget our holidays in Santa Barbara. Thanks to Annick.

I have known Annick for more than 30 years. First as a friend, second as a business partner.
Often people warn you of doing business with your friends.
If anything we have come to understand each other in a deeper and more positive way.
She can be trusted completely to handle any property in the most professional manner.
She is clear in communicating what she needs to do the best possible work; that makes things move forward effortlessly.
She is often praised by our clients and yet remains humble in her fortitude.
Ultimately she is experienced in what she does, and that experience shows in the results that she gets.

Annick has been doing an exceptional job managing the rental of my Santa Barbara home for nearly eight years. She plays a vital role in the success of the rental and has helped make my home the popular destination it has become; with a number of visitors coming back year after year. Reliability, courtesy and thoroughness are all qualities I know I can count on. If you’re looking for someone to manage the short or long term rental of your home, or even considering listing your home for sale, Annick would be an excellent choice.
