About this apartment rental
Beautiful, completely renovated, third-floor beachfront condo, with all modern amenities. The stylish contemporary design of the interior decor is warm and inviting. The living room takes advantage of the natural light with gorgeous views of the ocean from the living room and kitchen.
A new, fully equipped kitchen is ready for you to whip up your favorite gourmet meals on the flat top cooktop. The modern appliances are stainless steel, and the countertops are solid stone.
Both bedrooms offer a cozy, sophisticated decor with a warm beach theme and soft earth tone colors.
The master bedroom features a king bed with two bedside tables and lamps. A stylish wooden bench sits at the foot of the bed.
The second bedroom features a queen bed with matching bedside tables with lamps and a flat-screen TV.
The modern bathroom features updated sinks, cabinets, and a walk-in shower with tile and glass.
The balcony off of the living room has two cozy sectional sofas and views that look right out over the beach. You'll enjoy the mild Pacific breeze and watching the sunsets while you enjoy your favorite local Santa Barbara wine or your favorite beverage.
*Winter Sand Berm: The construction of the city's winter sand berm is a strategic measure, informed by the annual tidal patterns influenced by celestial alignments. The timing of the berm's erection is determined by the specific positioning of the Earth relative to the sun and the moon, resulting in typical installation periods from early December through early to mid-March. However, these dates are subject to variation due to the dynamic nature of lunar and solar cycles rather than arbitrary human decision-making.
For instance, historical data indicates that the berm was dismantled on March 10th, 2021, and on March 2nd in 2020. This year, the construction of the sand berm is scheduled for November 29th, 2023, aligning with the predicted celestial and tidal conditions. These dates exemplify the adaptation to the annual celestial shifts.
Beyond its functional purpose, the sand berm offers unique recreational opportunities. Visitors can traverse its height to enjoy an enhanced perspective of the surroundings or utilize it as an elevated seating area by placing beach chairs atop it.

Cute comfortable place to stay. Loved the balcony. We saw dolphins everyday. Place was clean and the bathroom was well stocked.
Internet went out and took 3 days to fix, but everyone was very nice about it.
Definitely recommend to others.

Location- perfect! Walk to everything. Right on the beach.
(Only small issue - no beach chairs or towels - we flew so couldn’t bring beach chairs. Maybe could have brought towels if we had noticed they weren’t provided.)
Everything else was perfect!

The condo was wonderful- beautifully furnished, comfortable beds, well located and right on the beach! Our view was all sand and breaking waves. We only left the condo to go out for meals. It was the perfect place to relax!
Many thanks to the owner for sharing his jewel of a place!

This property did not disappoint! From the updated features to the quaint feel and the AMAZING view everything was perfect. The process with Casago was effortless and coming and going from the property to town was very easy. We will definitely be back, thank you!

Great oceanfront location and views. Small but functional like a coastal cottage but in a condo buildung.
Updated kitchen and bath. Nice newish refrigerator and range.
Negatives: non-functioning elevator, no temp numbers on thermostats of 50s-60s style electric wall heaters (have to set temp by trial and error), overly-complicated light switches in bedrooms that don't light up the on/off button, under-powered (700 watt) cheap little microwave. Would stay here again.

We’ve been staying in Carpinteria for over 20 years and this was by far one of our favorite rentals! Great location and nicely done inside. Although the condo is on the third floor, it’s only 1 flight of stairs to the beach. It was super easy to bring beach gear up/down each day. We’ll definitely be staying here again!
4.8
This was our 1st time doing a beach rental and we were not disappointed at all. Our view was amazing. We loved our stay and definitely will book here again.
4.8
Great location and very nice place. Super easy trip with little kids. Steps away from the beach and easy walk to restaurants. We plan to stay here again.
4.8
Excellent stay; we love the location and the view. Berm is seasonal and doesn’t affect the view from this unit. Weak water pressure in the shower was the only downer. Overall very good.
4.8
Great views, great location, and great place. No frills.
4.8
Our stay was absolutely perfect. Condo has a delightful balcony with comfortable furnishings and perfect ocean views. The kitchen was updated and well stocked.
The bed was comfortable. Easy access to gated parking, and very walkable to stores and restaurants. We thoroughly enjoyed our mini get away.

Spent 3 nights at this lovely condo. Great location, top floor and at the very end of the building, away from the street. Well organized parking. Very comfy bed and overall a cozy setup. Bathroom is small, but everything is there. Super view of the water with easy access to the beach.

We had a great time. Property is very clean, location is awesome.

The condo had beautiful views of the ocean and was next to a trail for walking. I loved to open the slider and listen to the waves. It was clean and bed was comfortable. However, the main bedroom could use better shades/curtains because the window is on the balcony where everyone comes in and is very bright from outside lights. The water pressure in the shower was terrible. The drip coffee pot was gross and there were no pods for the keurig left. Overall we enjoyed our stay.
4.8
Amazingly clean and comfortable. I have no complaints, only compliments. Perfect location. Cannot wait to come back.
4.8
We loved this property. Planning on staying next year as well. Beautiful location. We have been coming to Carp annually for over 30 years. This is the best place we have ever stayed. Location, location, location! Thanks so much for sharing your home with us!
4.8
Cute, updated condo. Quiet & safe neighborhood. Clean and comfortable beds & couch. Beautiful, beachfront view. Great location: walking distance to many shops, markets, restaurants, bars, train station. Responsive staff. Kitchen well-stocked. Bathroom is small & the faucet sprays all over back of counter. Could use more towels in kitchen & bathroom. Stove cooktop takes a VERY long time to heat. Overall a fabulous place to stay - we would stay in this unit again! Looking forward to our next visit!
4.8
Perfect in every way! Unit was well appointed and updated. Kitchen and seating areas took advantage of the views. Beds and linens were clean and comfortable. On site manager was kind and helpful, and the entire property was recently updated and showed well. We are already booked for next year!
4.8
We loved our stay here. It’s in a perfect walkable location, the beds were super comfortable and the place is very clean! Only recommendation is maybe some optional black out curtains for those who want to sleep in. The sun comes in right at sunrise- no complaints just maybe a thought
4.8
Major issues were lack of a stocked coffee prep area. I have stayed many places and I’m used to this as a welcoming gesture. Also, the bed linens were inferior and the pillows very disappointing. The blankets were inadequate for warmth and did not smell freshly laundered. The location is top notch so I would return hoping for these upgrades.

Been staying at Carp Shores most summers since the kids were young. Always enjoy the on the beach location.

Great stay. Keep in mind this place is bare bones - no beach towels and not even on keurig pod. My only real issue with the spot was the violently loud slamming of the neighboring door every time they went in or out. I mentioned this to the neighbor but it was starling each time they used the door. People I was speaking with on the phone heard it and asked me if I was okay. You might want to address that with the neighbors. I know the ocean breeze can cause the doors to slam but I was cautious when I used the front door to NOT let it slam. Your neighbors, not so much. Place was a great place to hang out (I was actually working while I was in town) so the views and beach access were amazing.
4.8
The suite is well-decorated, has very comfortable beds, and a kitchen with everything you need. But the best part is the balcony overlooking the gorgeous beach, with comfortable seating and shade, inviting you to catch up on your reading or your napping.
4.8
Very comfortable unit and well equipped with everything we needed for our stay. Casago was very quick to respond to my text regarding a couple of items we needed. We would return to this unit again.
4.8
Condo is on the 3rd floor with a great view of the sunset. It is very comfortable - cozy and clean. Carpenteria is a cute small town just minutes from Montecito and Santa Barbara. Onsite property manager was very helpful too.
4.8
If location and basic comfort is your number one priority, this is your spot! The view of the ocean is amazing (think seals frolicking in the ocean swells and the sound of the ocean's constant rhythm...). It's easily walkable to a number of good restaurants, and a quick and beautiful drive to Santa Barbara wine county. The unit iscomfortable, clean and safe, but not luxurious or particularly charming.
In all fairness, there was a lot of off-season improvements going on (painting the exterior halls, resealing the parking lot...) that created minor inconveniences. But the management companey was quick to respond and very fair in resolving any issues.
This property provides a great base-camp for exploring the area and I would certainly consider staying there again!
4.8
Beautiful unit, exceeded our expectations. Kitchen was well stocked with everything you would need for cooking. Beds were super comfy! Great location, just a short walk to town and shopping. Would definitely recommend this property to friends and family.
4.8
Super cute decor with comfortable posturepedic mattresses, spa like bathroom, cozy and spacious living area, with a full functioning kitchen. Location: a corner unit in the condo complex on the 3rd and also top floor. Our favorite place to be was on the balcony on comfy couches looking right over the beach. The ocean sounds and gorgeous sunsets were spectacular. We plan to return in the future. Highly recommend.

We always stay in Carpinteria, but for my mom's 70th birthday, we wanted something extra special. This place was it! We walked into the house and you can see the ocean from the front door! So incredible! The decor was such a beautiful combination of cozy with clean. They provided fabulous blankets on a blanket ladder to cuddle up on the lavish couches inside, or outside on the patio. the kitchen was gorgeous, too! The backsplash/tile in the kitchen and bathroom were adorable. And the rooms were plenty spacious enough for the four of us to sleep comfortably and spread out! Being able to pull our stuff in off the beach, and STILL be able to watch the sunset from the comfort of the balcony was my favorite part! Thank you for letting us stay in your fabulous place!

Ideal location right on the beach. Enjoyed relaxing on the patio with a cup of coffee and a good book. So convenient, just steps away from a beautiful sandy beach and restaurants within walking distance. Place is clean and chic and has everything you need to post up for a beach getaway.

The location of this condo is the best! Right on the ocean, blocks to the main shopping/eating center of Carpenteria, a short drive to Santa Barbara. Plus the condo is updated, clean and has everything you need. Great views from the balcony and beach access was awesome. My family had a great time.
