There wasn't too much information online, so I emailed back and forth with them with questions prior to our day trip to Santa Barbara, and they were fairly responsive. We were still a bit concerned how busy it would be and if it would have all the accommodations that we needed to work, but we decided to give a try. We showed up at the Sandbox just after opening on a Friday morning. The door was open and there was only one person working inside. The woman working there told us just to log in and but our day pass on our computers and that would serve as our access to the WiFi. She said she would only be there until noon so to ask her any questions before then. My bf had a bunch of meetings and needed a space to take them in so he had pre-booked the fish tank. But given that there was no one else there and there were three phone booths that were actually much better than the fish tank for taking calls, he talked to the woman up front who said that he could just email them to cancel the reservations. Also, it seemed like a free for all anyways. There was a woman working in there most of the day, including when he had reserved the time, and I did not see her reservations on the schedule. Later, when the owner initially did not want to refund him for the fish tank reservations even though the owner had been there all day and knew he did not use it. He had to go back and forth with him for a while and finally send a picture of the woman sitting in there during his reservation time before he got the credit back. Luckily, the owner finally refunded the money (phew, because I wanted to be able to return and I know that on principle there was no way we'd be going back without that refund). They had a mask policy but even the woman working there was not wearing a mask. Hmmm. All in all this was a great option for us for remote working due to its low price, location and convenience. Pros: - Great location, near downtown Santa Barbara but far enough that there's still lots of free parking nearby - Inexpensive for a day pass - 3 phone booths for private calls (but a free for all so if it's busy there's no guarantee you can get one when you need one) - Not busy so we had a table to ourselves (not sure if this will change post COVID) Cons: - Pretty basic set up, WiFi is good enough but not particularly fast - No amenities or extras (the kitchen has filtered water and maybe drip coffee) - WiFi seems to only work for one device since you need to log in to access it, but maybe you can log in on more than one device (I did not try) - A little nickle and dime-y

Aileen would spend many late nights answering my concerns or making exceptional recommendations to bring my visions of my wedding day to life. When I walked into the reception area for the first time at the Villa Verano Estate, I had tears in my eyes and I was literally speechless. From the flowers to the lighting to the table cloths and all the rentals, our wedding was everything we dreamed of and more. A special thanks to her team on the actual wedding day because they were absolutely amazing and it went off seamlessly. Her and her team were by my side the entire wedding day constantly assuring me that everything was on track and going as planned, which I didn't particularly see but appreciated so much because I wasn't bothered with one thing. Aileen and her team anticipated what I needed before I even knew that I needed anything. We owe so much of our beautiful wedding day to Aileen! We couldn't have asked for a better coordinator in all parts of the process. She went above and beyond all of the responsibilities in the contract, and you can tell she really loves what she does. Early on in the process, we had already planned some of the wedding ourselves but we didn't have a very cohesive idea for the design side of our wedding. Aileen took the photos we'd saved of things we liked and our thoughts on what atmosphere we were going for and she created a digital design board for us. Her design board included our color palette, layout ideas, and design ideas for every aspect of our wedding from start to finish. It brought all of our ideas together with new ones into one cohesive, beautiful vision. If I could do one thing different it would be that I had found her sooner in the planning process. Thank you again Aileen for taking my childhood fairy tale and making it a reality. -Ashley H.
