Affordable Executive Getaway #11 — blocks to the Beach, Downtown & the Funk Zone

Welcome to our Affordable Executive Getaway, tailor-made for those who desire a beautiful Santa Barbara setting paired with unmatched quality and affordability. Located in the scenic West Beach Area, only blocks from the ocean, Stearns Wharf, the vibrant Funk Zone, renowned dining, and downtown shops, our location adds to its allure.

Please note that this space is located on the second Floor (Walk up). 

During your stay, you’ll be lavished with all the amenities expected as part of a beautiful getaway: complimentary champagne upon arrival, bath essentials, high-end linens, a Nespresso machine with pods, creams and sugar as well as reserved parking, which is rare in such close proximity to the beach. Please note that the parking spot is housed in a small carriage house and suitable for 1 compact vehicle.

The dimensions of the carriage house where you would park your car are 16 and 1/2 feet in length and 8 feet and 8 inches in width. Street parking is also accessible. Alternatively, we have other units which offer a standard parking space.

The cozy living room offers a 42” HD and cozy couch. The fully equipped kitchen is accented by Carrera marble countertops, limestone floors and all new appliances: stainless steel oven, stove, dishwasher, refrigerator and microwave.

The king bedroom features glass French doors and a small private terrace, providing views of the picturesque foothills. The accompanying bathroom is beautifully completed with limestone throughout, Santa Barbara custom cabinets and a shower tub/combo.

Our luxury beach getaways —in the Historical West Beach area— reside in a historical turn of the century building which retains the charm of the day’s bygone. The building has been lovingly restored to reflect Santa Barbara's ambiance, its array of apartments revealing both romantic and European styles. Our various spaces are complemented by luxurious details from Carrera marble surfaces, hand cast plaster, 10 feet vaulted ceilings and Waterford fireplaces.

Located in the heart of Santa Barbara, you’ll be steps from the beach and blocks from Stearn’s Wharf and the harbor, world renowned dining and downtown shops, as well as the Public Market and our own local farmer’s market. Close proximity to the vibrant Funk Zone also adds to the allure. This nook where the streets meet the ocean, was was one an industrial spot, but is now a flourishing space with lively and artistic locale. The benefit of nearby bike rental shops and the downtown Amtrak station further allows for easy transportation. As you’ll be located downtown, beautiful shops and restaurants lining State Street and nearby beaches and gardens are perfect for unwinding, whereas, nearby Channel Islands and wine country prompt adventurous day trips.

Nestled between the Santa Ynez Mountains and the Pacific Ocean on the Central Coast of California, Santa Barbara offers dreamy ocean panoramas paired with Spanish-style architecture. Santa Barbara is home to miles of stretching, sandy beaches. A few steps inland, and you’ll find a trove of blooming gardens, towering palms and lush parks. This gentle crescent of California coast, known as the American Riviera, connects breathtaking beaches, soaring mountains, verdant vineyards, elevated enclaves and eclectic communities.

Good Choice for a Short Stay
Another tidy little unit in the big yellow house! Layout is a bit quirky with entry into the kitchen, a tight bathroom, and outdoor patio access from the bedroom. Eclectic furnishings and worn carpet give the impression of a college apartment, but the space is actually quite clean. The bed and sofa are very comfortable. We would have liked plumper head pillows and another six coffee cups in the cabinet to cut down on dishwashing. That said, the unit is a good choice for a short stay and we intend to return.

5 Year Anniversary Getaway
We wanted to take this time to say THANK YOU! We appreciated you to allow us to stay at your hidden gem nearly 3 blocks away from the ocean. Great location to all; walking distance to food, seafood restaurants, wineries and best of all breweries. Your home was so cozy, welcoming and very clean. The only thing we would say is upgrade the TV since we were unable to stream from our phones(very difficult). We definitely want to come back soon and will keep you on our minds when we think of going to Santa Barbara. We took a little long to write this but was reminded from the bottle of champagne you gave us, which we are drinking now. You exceeded our expectation as we celebrated our 5 year anniversary. Again well done. Stay safe from Hilary and hope all is well. Best, Rick and Rosemary

The apartment was very well appointed. We had a floor fan which was broken upon our arrival and it was quickly replaced by the on-site manager. The bed was comfortable. The apartment is too small to entertain even another couple.

Good location for the price
Pros: - It was good location within walking distance to the beach and main strip. - Much cheaper than hotels in the area and more value for the money. - Nice coffee machine. - Enjoyed eating on the outside patio. Cons: - Carpet needs to replaced with hardwood or tile. Seems old, dingy, and had a musky smell. - The cart in bathroom between the sink and shower made that area cramped. I would suggest installing a medicine cabinet for guest to store toiletries. - Cable TV remote worked only half the time when watching streaming services such as Netflix and Prime. Should have the remote from the actual TV available. - May want to fix the light in the bedroom, it's not properly aligned and looks like it's going to fall off.

Luckily, we have a very small car or parking would have been a problem. Listing stated there was a private washer & dryer with soap, this was not true. Although the manager promptly assisted us to the housekeeping laundry, listing needs to be corrected. Location was great, near beach & many restaurants.

Super cute building, we just returned from Italy and it sure resembles a lot of the VRBO’s we stayed in there. The location was close to the beach and town. We parked our car and didn’t use it until we left! The apartment is super cute and clean with a nice little patio. We loved falling asleep to the fountain outside. Highly recommend it!

We thoroughly enjoyed our Santa Barbara stay. Downtown Santa Barbara was just great with lots of very nice restaurants, bars and cultural attractions. The place was very comfortable, well equipped and very clean. Neighborhood was very nice and safe and well located near downtown and readily accessible to other parts of the Santa Barbara area. Off street park very close to the unit was quite easy. We hope we have the opportunity to rent this unit again in this beautiful area.

Good stay at a fair price
Location is great. Access/parking to the building was easy enough. The information provided for checkin & WiFi was inaccurate but the manager was communicative and timely. There are a few odd things about the place that were fine for us but could have been better: 1. It's difficult to eat here. There's a table, one chair and a stool, both of which sit at the same height as the table. 2. The appliances are loud. Woke us up several nights throughout our stay. 3. The bathtub does not plug if you'd like to take a bath. 4. Pillows are flat/flimsy but the bed is comfortable. Things that were great: 1. Cleanliness 2. Variety of dinnerware and cooking utensils. You could make dinner here if you'd like. 3. The Nespresso with the foamer is a great addition.
