Casa Del Sol

10/10 Excellent

"Sick vibes"

Best Western Plus Carpinteria Inn

6/10 Okay

"We stayed for graduation weekend at Cate. The staff was great. However, the hotel was understaffed. Here are problems: 1. The refrigerator in our room failed before we got to the room. It leaked water on the floor. They tried to vacuum the carpet but it was still wet. Nothing like walking across a wet carpet in bare feet. They could not give us another room as they were totally booked. 2. They could not keep coffee on the first floor in the morning. Lots of disgruntled guests waiting for coffee. 3. They closed the restaurant for breakfast. Again, understaffed. 4. Hotel appears to trade profit for upset guests due to understaffing. On my wet floor all they had to do is turn in insurance claim and they could remove water from floor. They lose a deductible. 5. They know of influx in guests and appear not to hire staff to accommodate. More staff more money and lost profit."

10/10 Excellent

"This is such a hidden jewel. I hesitate to write such a good review because I want to keep it secret. But truly, it was such a wonderful place for us to visit. We live in town so we had a little staycation and it was just perfect. Mark was so great and easy to communicate with. We loved our place and it was walking distance to everything. It made a gathering we had at the beach so wonderful because we were able to run back-and-forth, if we needed anything. We will definitely stay again."

NEW 2BD Luxury Beachfront Condo in Carpinteria. Stunning Ocean Views!

10/10 Excellent

"The location was beautiful just like the picture. Wonderfully located near food pubs breakfast houses etc. very clean property. Would stay here again. The bed and couch were very stiff. I think these should be considered to be upgraded. And the pillows were flat."

Just a few steps from Carpinteria State Beach. Bright, clean and cozy.

10/10 Excellent

"We found this little condo sparkling clean, lovingly decorated, and well equipped. It’s a small space but very comfortable for my sister and I. It’s more like a studio-plus, so sister took the bed and I used the couch. The couch was amazingly comfortable-I slept really well every night! The property as a whole is very pretty and well maintained. The beach is very close, just down the stairs and across the street. Our host, Chris, was easy to reach and was kind and helpful. We would definitely stay here again! "

Victorian Carpinteria Apartment < 1 Mi to Beach!

10/10 Excellent

"We loved the location of this place. Food and coffee so close. Easy walk to the beach and very easy to find. Great use of the space with being able to fit up to 6 even though it’s only a one bedroom. Large bathroom. So cute inside with the way it was designed and decorated. "
