About Elena
Meet Elena Vargas
Resort property specialist on the American Riviera.

REALTOR® · Resort Property Specialist
Sunlit homes and resort living.
Elena Vargas grew up between Santa Barbara and Guadalajara, and she still sees the American Riviera through both lenses: ocean light, tiled courtyards and homes meant for gathering.
She specializes in villas and estates where indoor and outdoor living blur, and she pairs every listing with resort-quality photography and a clear pricing plan.
When she is not showing homes, Elena is usually at the farmers market or walking Butterfly Beach with her dogs.
