Classy digs and a hip hideaway on the urban wine trail, In the heart of Santa Barbara's entertainment district. Baby Dux is a studio apartment in The Dux, a three apartment hotel. Experience enveloping luxury in this designer apartment in a classic craftsman house one block from the center of town and five walking blocks to the beach. Shopping, music, dance and excellent restaurants are just steps away. The apartment has exclusive use of the front porch and is completely private.
BEDDING: The elegantly designed corner bed couch is unusual. A drawer pulls out to convert it to a really comfortable, well-reviewed queen size bed with tempurpedic topper. The drawer stores the pillows. The armoire below the TV stores the mattress topper. Once the bedding is laid out, the pillows on the couch can be switched with the mattress topper to maximize space.
There is HD Digital TV and High Speed WiFi with a small table for those video calls plus a washer and dryer and paid on-site parking. BBQ on your porch, and use of the free bicycles for car-free, stress-free enjoyment.
The kitchenette is small and complete with a microwave, toaster, coffee maker, toaster oven and heat-induction hot plate. There is no stove top or traditional oven so if you plan to do some cooking, Mama Dux or Papa Dux are better choices with larger kitchens.
Relax and feel pampered in this thoughtfully designed and well-loved space. The apartment is one block from State St., 2 blocks from the 'Funk Zone' and five blocks from the beach. This is one of three apartments, so please understand this is not a good choice for loud late night partying. If you would like more room, then check out the other two one bedroom apartments in The 3 Dux: Mama Dux on the ground floor and Papa Dux on the second floor.
