Perfect stay

We come to Carpinteria every year, to meet up with extended family members for the week. We have stayed in many places in town, and so far this has been our favorite. We enjoyed the cute apartment and perfect location. We plan on renting here again in the future!

Great place, fantastic location

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.

The smallest(big) delight

This was such a cute place. We thought it might be a little small for the 5 of us, 3lthree adults and two kids, but it was great! There was a hidden giant bed in the living room and a couch for the 3rd adult, and, of course, a comfortable bedroom for us. The place is well decorated, centrally located... within walking distance of everything in carpenteria. And it's upstairs, so it feels even more private and safe. This place is totally worth it and it's a great price!

Such a great apartment located in a very central area of Carpinteria. The walk to the beach was a few blocks away, but we just use our wagon and it didn't feel like an overwhelming walk. With younger kids, you may want to park closer to the beach. It was nice to go downtown or go grocery shopping and not have to drive, just a short walk. The apartment was super cute and very clean. We definitely enjoyed our stay there and hope to come back again soon!

Absolutely loved it! In the heart of town. Super clean and beautifully decorated. The king size bed in the bedroom and the two queen fold out beds in the living room were extremely comfortable. Fully equipped with anything and everything you may need. Plenty of extra towels, sheets and pillows. Steps away from various cafes and restaurants. The host was super sweet and hospitable. Can’t wait to go back.

Perfect location!

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.

Perfect

Such a cute place. We stayed upstairs and the apartment up there is adorable. Beautifully furnished. We didn’t really use the kitchen, but it seemed to have pretty much everything you could’ve want. Bathroom is great, now I want to redecorate mine. Check-in was super easy. Easily walkable to the cute little downtown. A little bit far to walk to the beach, but we did it anyway, and it was fine.. Would definitely stay here again.

Lovely Experience

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!

Charmed!

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!
