The place is centrally located and easy to get around town. The upstairs unit is cozy but not ideal for 6’5 or taller like myself. Master bed was really comfortable but the two sofa beds are extremely uncomfortable. It is also located behind a gas station which we found to be busy and somewhat loud weekday mornings. Probably not an issue for most but being that we live in the country we felt it. Overall the place was fine and Served it’s purpose.

Carpinteria is a very cute town, and this location was steps away from a small little main street, with many cute shops and restaurants. The walk to the beach was only ~10 min, and it was very quiet and clean. The house was exactly as pictured, and it was well-stocked with linens, etc. Very clean and neat. Would definitely go back.

Nice location

Absolutely charming and enjoyable experience. Perfectly located and walking distance to everything (shops, restaurants, gas, Smart & Final, and beach). The unit had everything needed, very clean and beautifully decorated and spacious. Jena was a wonderful host and available as needed. She has a darling shop on the first floor filled with treasures. Everything was lovely!

This was the perfect place for my family of 5 to stay. It was with in walking distance to everything. We slept with the windows open and it was still very quiet. We will definitely be staying here again in the future.

Just loved staying here. Right in the heart of Carpinteria, right by the one of the best coffee shops (Lucky Llama, right across the street) and one block from the cute main street of the town. Great accommodations, big, big screen television, lovely kitchen, super comfortable bedroom.
4.7
Our Host was incredibly welcoming and invested in being sure that we had everything we needed. The upstairs unit was roomy and very tastefully designed and decorated. Our two teenage kids had plenty of space for sleeping with the two pull out couches. Walking everywhere for breakfast, lunch, dinner and drinks was a breeze…not to mention the beach! We’ll be back for sure!

Great location, a block away from downtown. Bed was very comfortable. Would have loved more amenities in the kitchen but perfect for a short stay.

We've stayed here before and it was just as lovely as the first time. Feels like staying at yourbown homr except that it's probably cleaner;) great location, close to restaurants and shops. We are coming again!

Excellent location, wonderful Victorian centrally located, just across the street from Lucky Llama Coffee House (one of the best in town) and one block from the main street that leads to beach. Just a great experience all the way around.

I was disappointed with the wall heating unit….it worked the first night but not the second. It was cold and I was not going to call for assistance at midnight.

Had to reschedule twice due to family circumstances but was able to do so easily, and this trip was worth the wait. Short walk to the beach and local food and coffee. Fabulous restaurants between Carpenteria and Santa Barbara! Wine/brew and live music and just a great time connecting with family.

Carpinteria is our new favorite place to visit. And the Castro house was a great place to stay. Strategically located close enough to town to walk to anything you needed as well as to the beach. We would definitely stay there again. And so should you!

Great location, Friendly Host
We just returned from a 10 day stay in this hidden gem of a beach town. Jana was a wonderful host and made sure we had everything we needed. She also owns the shop on the premises, so was readily available. Location, location, location. This quaint and quirky beach house is close to everything! We loved the walkability of the city. Great restaurants, beautiful beaches. There’s even a seal sanctuary within walking distance. No AC, so windows must be kept open when over 70. During our stay, temps soared into the mid-80’s, so our upstairs apt was quite toasty. Fans were provided and helped quite a bit, but it was still hot. Jana and her husband are planning a remodel of this cute apartment in the future. Restaurant recommendations: Giannfranco,s (eat in the garden), Nutbelly (great thin crust pizza), Teddy’s By the Sea, and so Padaro Beach Grill (up the road a mile or two). We can’t wait to come back to Carpinteria!

Overall we loved the Castro house. It is a very old house (1908?), with the charm and quirks that accompany homes of this era. Some parts have been remodeled, such as the kitchen and bathroom. Being upstairs, it can get pretty warm though, even on days in the 60s. Many windows do not open because the wood is old, and swells, and most windows do not have screens. The owner, Jana, who was super friendly and helpful, said they are planning a remodel. The location is excellent. A block from downtown, and about a mile walk to beach.

When we opened the door upon arrival we were shocked by how old/musty the place smelled, but since we had prepaid we opened all of the windows that we could and kept them open during our stay which meant that all street noise came right in. Also, if you are going to have an event on the property during a stay you might let the renter know when they book so that they can decide if they do want to stay there.

Very easy to walk to restaurants and shops. We didn't mind a 5 minute drive to beach parking. The unit was clean and was renovated enough but needs a lot of work relative to patching nail holes, correcting peeling paint, scuff marks. Garbage disposal didn't work, kitchen sink soap dispenser not in service. Window cranks need updating. Cables draped on roof.
