More Info
Santa Barbara guests are tasting flavors, feeling breezes, and expecting calm. That means the moment they step in your airbnb, everything from scent to staging must align perfectly with their expectations. We also integrate with your calendar if needed and offer custom key exchange solutions for absentee hosts. If you’ve ever had a last-minute cancellation from a “trusted cleaner,” you already know what it costs. We don’t ghost. We show up. Every time.
Hosts in Santa Barbara demand more than “clean.” They expect the comfort of a coastal retreat, without the sights, smells, or wear of previous guests. Your turnover needs to feel gentle, precise, and utterly guest-ready. You need reliability. You need a clean that reflects the quality of your listing.

Why Santa Barbara Hosts Choose Us
Two Decades of Vacation-Rental Expertise
We’ve been refining our cleaning methods since before the influencer boom. We know which coastal homes show salt buildup, when windows need streak-free polish, and how bathrooms must feel fresh without chemicals. Trust in a system that’s evolved with this market.
Our team is deeply familiar with Santa Barbara’s unique rhythm — from last-minute weekend getaways to weeks-long luxury bookings. We adjust accordingly without cutting corners.
Insured, Professional, Vacation-Rental-Only
Each team member is background-checked, insured, trained in VR housekeeping—no residential drift, no gig workers. You know who’s walking your property and why they’re there.
We provide continuity. You won’t have a stranger walk in with a mop. Our cleaners know your property, follow your notes, and execute every detail as you’ve outlined it.
Hospitality-Caliber Reset Every Time
Forget “clean.” We deliver thoughtful turnovers:
- Crisp linens and pillow-perfect beds
- Smudge- and dust-free high-touch surfaces
- Restaged guest guides, local tips, water glasses—exactly how you left them
- We aim for a clean so seamless, your guests feel they’re the first to stay.
- And we understand seasonality: heavier sand buildup after summer surges, soot or fireplace ash in cooler months, window spots during foggy mornings. Our approach flexes with your calendar.
Green Standards That Matter
Many claim eco. We prove it, using Green Seal certified products, essential-oil–supported botanicals, sanitized microfiber, and vacuuming that removes (not redistributes) dust. No smells, no residues, just peace of mind.
We’ve refined our toolkit over decades. Every product has been tested for safety, efficacy, and guest experience. If a better biodegradable cleaner becomes available, we upgrade it. If a disinfectant leaves film, it’s gone.
Because your guests deserve to breathe in ocean air, not chemicals.

What people are saying about Our Green Cleaning Services
EXCELLENT Based on 57 reviews Drysdale Family2025-06-06Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Vanessa and her team went the extra mile! After the Palisades fire, we were at the mercy of insurance and hoped for an expert team, they were that and much more. They left our house magically better after scouring long days in detailed manner. They organized our garage which had been left mid-haphazard as it was the day we were to declutter but had to abandon mid morning due to the fires. They had a lot of disorganization to work around and they not only cleaned things up but categorized things in our garage. The job we were going to do that morning was essentially nearly complete. I was able to easily haul the excess and damaged things out. I cannot say how much of a burden this lifted. I am forever grateful. Sean Scott2025-05-30Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great cleaning service! Needed my condo professionally cleaned before move out and they were just that! Carmen and Maria were on time, thorough, friendly and professional. Will definitely be using them again at my new residence. Thank you! jane swain2025-05-23Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Extreme Green Cleaning did a wonderful job! Our house is sparkling clean! Ami Zagata2025-05-14Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. They were very accommodating and were quick to schedule with excellent communication. The cleaning service was wonderful and they used natural products. Very happy with the service. Maritza Ortiz2025-05-09Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. First time contracting a cleaning service to do a good deed for my Tia, 10/10 experience. They showed up on time and were very professional. The ladies Marisela and Maria were so sweet and did an amazing job cleaning the restroom, thankful to the both of them!! Victor S.2025-05-08Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Highly satisfied with Extreme Green Cleaning. The deep cleaning of our kitchen was extremely helpful. And I really liked how much detail was put into every corner, shelf, windows and blinds, and organizing. Some rearranging was also appreciative and overall love the way everything looks. Lise Andersson2025-05-02Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Called the day of our move out for last minute cleaning and was so happy they could schedule us in. On top of that, the cleaning was super thorough and it felt so good leaving the apartment knowing everything was spotless. The cleaning team worked so efficiently and did an amazing job overall! Highly recommend. Nidhi2025-04-28Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can’t recommend Extreme Green Cleaning highly enough! Lucy and Teresa went above and beyond in helping get my home back in order during a really difficult time. They were incredibly thorough, attentive, and made a huge difference. I especially appreciated their use of green, eco-friendly products — it gave me peace of mind knowing everything was safe, gentle, and still left the house spotless. I’m so grateful for their hard work, care, and professionalism. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a top-quality, eco-conscious cleaning service! Garrett Lopez2025-04-09Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We hired Extreme Green Cleaning to deep clean a duplex, and the experience was mixed. One side of the unit was cleaned thoroughly and looked great — clearly showing attention to detail and care. However, the other side fell short of our expectations for a deep clean. Some floor areas, baseboards, blinds and parts of the kitchen counter were still noticeably dirty. The job also took about two hours longer than estimated, which was a bit frustrating. That said, the team was professional, apologetic, and willing to make things right once we brought the issues to their attention. We’d consider hiring them again, but likely for a more straightforward cleaning job rather than something this involved. Actual cleaning reflects 3 stars. Service and communication would be 4 stars. Amber Grant2025-04-03Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I love Extreme Green Cleaning! I used their service many years ago to do my regular house cleaning when I had little kids and I just couldn’t keep up. I recently converted our garage to a studio apartment and it needed its final cleaning. My contractor had someone come clean it, but sadly, they did a poor job. I had the contractor send their person again and it STILL wasn’t done right. I used the microwave for the first time and a cloud of dust billowed off the top ledge where the vent was. And everywhere I looked there was just a thin layer of filmy dust that kept resettling on everything. So I thought I would try Extreme Green again because I knew from the past how good they are. Thankfully they did exactly what I needed - PROPERLY wipe everything down and get into all the details and crevices and ledges that had been missed. Finally, the space is dust free, sparkling, and smells great. They are also easy to schedule, pay, and talk to. Ahh 🙌 Thank you, Extreme Green. I will not bother trying to rely on anyone else in the future!
