About Us
“Raising our family in Santa Barbara has been a dream come true. After growing up together in the small town of Hidden Hills, California in the 1970s—where we literally spent our childhoods on horseback—we knew we wanted that same small-town charm, community feel, and coastal beauty for our kids. Santa Barbara was the perfect place to call home.”
Kurt began his creative journey at the renowned Brooks Institute right here in Santa Barbara, which eventually led him to a successful film career in Hollywood. In the early 1990s, he returned to Santa Barbara to launch a film and motocross production company, bringing his entrepreneurial spirit and visual storytelling to life in our local community.
Tiffany, a graduate of Pepperdine University’s Graduate School of Education, started her professional path as an elementary school teacher before transitioning into real estate. She has been deeply involved in property management for decades, well before earning her real estate license. In 2015, Tiffany became a licensed California Real Estate Broker and unified their growing portfolio of rental homes under the brand Haller Coastal Homes. After nearly two decades with top brokerages like Coldwell Banker, Village Properties, and Compass, she stepped away from traditional real estate in 2022 to focus exclusively on vacation rental management in Santa Barbara. Today, she continues to work closely with local Realtors to help clients identify top agents for investment property purchases.
Together, Kurt and Tiffany have two adult children who surf, golf, and love the Santa Barbara lifestyle as much as they do. They’re also proud pet parents to Bogey, the official Puggle mascot of Haller Coastal Homes—who may or may not think he runs the company!

Property Owners
Family-Owned, Locally Operated, Proudly Santa Barbara
At Haller Coastal Homes, we believe the best vacation rental experiences come from deep roots in the community, a personal touch, and genuine care. We’re not a corporate chain or a distant property manager working from another state—we’re a Santa Barbara-based, family-owned company that treats every home we manage like one of our own.
Unlike larger companies managing 75–100+ properties with out-of-town staff and call centers, our boutique approach allows us to stay closely connected with every owner and guest. We are on the ground, in the neighborhoods and available 24/7—because vacation rental property management in Santa Barbara requires local knowledge, fast response, and personal commitment.

Our portfolio is curated to ensure we can give each home the attention it deserves. You are never just a number here and neither are your guests.

More Than Management - A Real Partnership
As a trusted Santa Barbara vacation rental management company, we’ve spoken at industry conferences nationwide on topics like “Limited Edition Vacation Rental Management” and “Building the Best Tech Stack.” But what truly sets us apart is how we treat your home—with the same pride and protection we give our own. When you partner with Haller Coastal Homes, you are getting more than a manager—you are gaining a passionate team that is deeply invested in your property, your revenue goals, and your peace of mind. We hope you will join our vacation rental family.
