Good trip

Great property, balcony is fantastic, I would like to see seating and tables on the balcony cleaner. Probably difficult to maintain with the proximity to the ocean air.

Holiday getaway

Enjoyed our stay - we were visiting family nearby and this place gave us some time to ourselves, too. Enjoyed the creek and birds; nearby Funk Zone was a plus. We would return! While near the train, the noise was not an issue...

Coffee on the porch.

We had a wonderful stay with attentive hosts, and we would go back in a heart beat! Walking distance to so many things. Bakeries, the pier, restaurants and even museums. The porch was a great place for coffee in the morning and cocktails in the afternoon. So glad we chose to stay here!

Very nice and great location

I would definitely come back. All was as advertised and it was very quiet at night despite being in town. First train I heard was not until after 7am.

Great location and great price

The place was spacious, centrally located, and in great shape. The noise was very minimal due to some construction but well worth the price. The owner was very easy to work with and we really appreciated their flexibility. We came as a couple and had the ocean breeze flowing through the windows and access to the full kitchen. The view and large balcony are a huge plus. You should be aware of the train in the morning, but this is one of the few drawbacks. I would highly reccomend this place to stay for anyone looking to explore Santa Barbara.

Great place in a great spot

Having the parking spot at all times is key. The location of this place is key. The TV is older, radio works and there is a VHS/DVD player only so bring some entertainment for when you are there (tablets, portable bluetooth speaker etc). It’s very cozy. We thoroughly enjoyed the stay and will book it again when we go back!

We love this place!

My boyfriend and I had the best week stay at this place! The private balcony/deck was an amazing bonus and allowed us to enjoy the perfect weather. Everything about the place exceeded our expectations. One thing worth noting is that you are very close to the train station which can be loud throughout the day, but still well worth it! We plan on coming to stay again as soon as possible :)

So Close to Everything

We were a group of 4 adults in town for a wedding at the Hotel Californian and this was maybe a 4 minute walk away. It was the perfect location to be close to everything while also having privacy. The balcony/porch was amazing!!! And the hosts have thought of everything. Every little detail was taken care of and it made our stay so fun and easy.

What a sweet spot!

We loved our stay here, what a sweet base to experience SB! The apartment has a wonderful boho esthetic that blends comfort and simplicity so well. We felt like we were in our own little Wes Anderson movie, the ritual of opening all the windows for air, and the simple pleasures of bringing back breakfast to enjoy on the front porch. It's so close to Funk Zone, downtown, and the beach we just left the car.
