About this house rental
Location, Location, Location!! We have 2 Condos available, this 2 bedroom and a 1 bedroom, in the most desirable and exclusive area in Santa Barbara at West Beach, just a few steps away from the sand. Ideally located just two short blocks from the beach between Stearn's Wharf (Pier) and the Santa Barbara Harbor, this romantic getaway allows you to leisurely walk to the harbor, the pier, restaurants, wine tasting or just spend your time relaxing or biking. We are also located just two blocks from the "Funk Zone", Santa Barbara's urban wine trail with over 20 wine tasting rooms and restaurants. The cottage is a great choice if you desire a central location where you can just park your car and walk. or bike. No extra fees except cleaning. Feel free to ask any questions you may have.

A great little home base. Easy walk to beach, pier restaurants, etc. No problem street parking and neighborhood very safe. Outdoor porch is fabulous. We didn’t eat any meals here but kitchen looks well stocked. Don’t hesitate to book!

Great place. Outdoor deck on second floor was where we hung out 90% of the time.

The property was exactly as described and the patio was fabulous! In close walking distance to everything. Stephanie was very accommodating and a pleasure.

Very clean. Walking distance to all the good areas.

A quick getaway was all we had and after arriving, we wish we had longer. From first look, we fell in love with the property. The outdoor living space is perfect, especially for Northwesterners who typically get only rain in April. The kitchen has everything you need, the beds are comfy and the living room seating is sufficient. If we have to come up with anything negative, the shower is a tad small but it is absolutely not a deal killer. Stephanie is a wonderful host with a beautiful property in a lovely neighborhood and I can't recommend it enough.

Had a lovely and relaxing stay, was very straightforward and easy to check in (was allowed to early which was very helpful)!
4.9
This was the perfect place for my girlfriends and I to getaway on a mom’s trip and celebrate my birthday. The condo was clean, easy to access, and close to everything we wanted to do (we walked everywhere). The little patio off the living room was our favorite part, we had coffee in the morning, snacks in the afternoon and drinks in the evening there. Stephanie was an amazing host, very responsive and super accommodating in allowing us to check in early and store our luggage when we had a late flight out so we could enjoy another day in beautiful SB. We will definitely be back and book this place. 10/10 recommend.

Great location … place clean and just as described. We loved being there..

This property was perfect for my husband & I as well as our son & girlfriend. Condo was exactly as described, had everything we needed. We could walk to the beach, Stearns Warf & the Funk Zone. It was clean, had everything we needed. Property is small but quaint & roomy enough for the four of us. The back patio which overlooked a zen garden was so quiet & a perfect way to have coffee in the morning or a glass of wine in the evening. Would stay here again. Stephanie was easy to deal with & quick to answer the few questions we had

Very Basic limited kitchen items very tight quarters. close to town street parking only. Fine for a couple of nights.
4.9
We enjoyed a great stay at Stephanie's place. The outdoor space was our favorite part!
Cons(minor and short):
-Very small bedrooms, one without a closet or dresser in the room
- very small shower with large shower head
Pros (huge and longer):
- fantastic communication from Stephanie
- well laid out/stylish
- location, location, location
- Stephanie made it possible for us to check in early.
- literally 2 blocks to the beach
- an easy 10-15 min walk to the heart of funk zone or downtown
- easy to find
- all the necessities were there
- beautiful patio/deck space
All in all, a great place. We'd stay again. If I could have I would have put 4.5 stars to split the difference between the two of us one thought 4 the other thought 4.5 to 5.

This place looks pretty, but is not actually comfortable to stay in. The beds were like cardboard and the bathroom and shower were tiny. The checklist to check out was long and despite paying a cleaning fee you are required to do the dishes and put them in their original place (sans dishwasher) and take out the trash. Also very obsessed with reminding you only 4 people are allowed and there wasn’t even comfortable seating in the living space for that. Thankfully I was only here for a short amount of time. It is a good location to the beach but a bit far to walk downtown.
4.9
Great property, close
To the beach. The place was clean and well appointed. Would stay again
4.9
This property was very comfortable. We walked to everything we wanted to see-the wharf, the harbor, and the funk zone.
4.9
Very clean, stylish, super location, everything we hoped for!
4.9
We had enough space for our family of two couples and our senior dog. During the heat wave the A/C was a welcome bonus. Parking two cars was never a problem. We like to cook and some of us wished there was a garbage disposal and dishwasher. However that did not stop us from having a terrific time and we would definitely return again.
4.9
Loved the interior design touches, great patio with view of beautfully designed garden below.
4.9
Nice place! Would definitely consider staying there again. Decent alternative to hotel for us, as we traveled with our 15 yo daughter. Close to the beach area. 😊
4.9
The property was nice, very clean and decorated thoughtfully. The outdoor patio was great. The reason I could not give 5 stars is because there are three places in the small unit reminding guests that they must check out at 10:00. These “informational” reminders were constant reminders of not only our check out time but our check out date as well. We were painfully aware of when our getaway ended. I think for most people, one reminder is sufficient.
4.9
This was a great location for the price. The unit was clean and well furnished. The patio was very nice with a big comfy table. There are steep stairs to the front door, and parking is only street parking, but as long as you’re aware of those factors it’s a great stay.
4.9
Very clean and great location. The beds were really uncomfortable and the air conditioner did not keep up so it was not great for getting a good night’s sleep

This condo was a perfect spot for 2 couples for a long weekend. The beach is just a 5 min walk away. The apartment is cozy and clean. It has a nice balcony/patio area. I really have no complaints!

We had a very nice stay in this very clean, updated, unit. The space worked perfect for three adults. The location was great. We could walk to downtown, the funk zone, beach and pier. The unit had everything we needed as well as a nice covered deck.
4.9
This was the perfect spot for 2 adult women. We walked everywhere, no need for a car. The kitchen and patio were perfect for making and enjoying our own wine and snacks. The grocery around the corner had everything we needed.
I’ll definitely book this spot again on the next trip to Santa Barbara.
4.9
