We would stay again in this lovely home. Sandy was exceptionally responsive.

The stairs are very steep and the treds very small, dangerous for people with mobility issues and for children. The stairs should be disclosed in text and photos.

Great place, great location. Street parking a little challenging with a big truck, but I would come back again for sure.

The configuration of this small unit is less than desirable and not suitable for senior citizens. There are steep winding stairs to the bedroom, closet and bath. All the windows are void of screens so there is no ventilations or air conditioning.

We loved being a couple blocks from the beach in a quiet neighbourhood. We thoroughly enjoyed having our breakfast and lunch at the unit inside and up on the outside deck and dinners out in the nearby restaurants. The access to transit was great. Our property managers were friendly, helpful with recommendations and prompt at responding. We had a wonderful experience.

Very short walk to State Street. It was so nice to not need a rental car. The condo was perfect for our needs.

My friend and I took a girls trip to Santa Barbara, and this unit was perfect for this trip. It was walking distance to everything we needed - beaches, urban wineries, restaurants, and shopping. It was private and quaint, and we really enjoy the unit for the 2 of us. Check in and communication was very easy with the host.

At the price paid to stay in Santa Barbara, Ca. One should not have to jockey around the town’s difficult parking regulations. If there is no way around the city ordinances then this should be ‘loudly’ stated in the original property description.

walking distance to harbor, wharf, state street, beach and the funk zone. just the kind of unique and quirky accommodation that we love, matches the character and charm of SB. Had everything we needed for a great visit.

We took our 5 year old son for a 4 day weekend in Santa Barbara and what a treat! This place is small, yes, but has everything you need! We made breakfast every morning, packed fresh lunches from the fridge, and ate dinner out on the town. We walked to the beach, the pier, and several other attractions. The only “struggle” was the parking, but it was NOT hard to find a spot on the street. 10/10 would stay again!

An unbeatable location, Chapala Gardens is a favorite. Great WiFi and a bright and sunny upstairs desk location for remote work. Nice to have the shared rooftop terrace for relaxing and dining. Thank you Sandy for sharing this lovely spot!

Perfect little apartment for 2 friends to stay and separated enough for when work needed to be done. The outdoors is nice with a little table but nothing fancy

We enjoyed our stay in unit 3 and the location eas perfect for us. We either walked or biked everywhere. We love spending time in the funk zone and it’s only a few blocks over We already have another trip booked The Chapala Gardens Sandy was very responsive too!

We love the property but someone with mobility issues would probably have trouble handling the stairs to the bedroom and bathroom—which are steep and narrow.
