Escape Like a Real Housewife: Santa Barbara Edition
Santa Barbara has long been the go-to coastal escape for the Beverly Hills housewives providing fresh ocean air, wine-soaked afternoons, and just enough drama to keep things interesting. In Season 10, Episode 7, the ladies traded their stilettos for Surrey bikes (temporarily) and turned a weekend getaway into a full-blown luxury escape—with a few side-eyes and champagne spritzes thrown in.
Where They Stayed: Spanish-Style Bliss in the Hills
For their Santa Barbara retreat, the Housewives checked into an absolutely jaw-dropping Spanish-style estate. Tucked into the hills with panoramic views, lush gardens, and terracotta-tiled charm, this private oasis screamed exclusive. Picture arched doorways, soaring ceilings, serene courtyards, and a pool just made for sunset vino chats (or tense one-on-ones—this is RHOBH, after all).
Whether they were lounging in matching robes, sipping something sparkling, or tossing passive-aggressive jabs across the patio furniture, the home served serious vacation goals.
Pedal-Powered Glamour: Wheel Fun Rentals
In what might be the most relatable moment of the episode, the Housewives hit the boardwalk in a Surrey bike—yes, together. The group rented from Wheel Fun Rentals, located right by the beach. The sight of Erika, Sutton, Kyle, and the rest steering a four-person pedal-mobile in designer sunglasses was, in a word, iconic.
Wheel Fun offers a variety of rentals—from electric bikes to beach cruisers—but the Surrey is where the laughs (and veiled jabs) really come alive. It’s a fun, low-pressure way to take in Santa Barbara’s scenic coastline and channel your inner Housewife with every bell ring and hair flip.
Wine, Waves, and Watchful Eyes
Of course, no Santa Barbara weekend is complete without wine tasting—and the ladies didn't disappoint. While the show didn’t highlight every sip, viewers caught glimpses of charcuterie boards, high-stemmed glasses, and views that could settle any Bravo-fueled feud (or fan the flames, depending on who's invited).
The trip may have started with a toast to friendship, but like any good Housewives episode, it wasn’t long before the undercurrents surfaced. Between the drama, however, we saw flashes of genuine fun, picturesque moments, and why Santa Barbara continues to be a must-visit for those seeking a mix of peace, polish, and just a touch of reality-TV flair.
