About this property

The Birdhouse at The Birdbath Bungalows

A beautifully curated bungalow in the heart of Ventura's beachside community.

THE SPACE



Two bedrooms, one bathroom, fully equipped kitchen. Start your morning on the covered front porch swing, fire up the BBQ for dinner, and spend your evenings around the fire pit under a canopy of pepper trees. Fully renovated in 2023 with care and quality throughout.

WEDDING PARTIES, FAMILY REUNIONS & GROUP RETREATS

Hosting a wedding party, family reunion, or work retreat? The Birdhouse is one of three Birdbath Bungalows on the property — rent one, two, or all three, each with private connecting gates that can be locked for your own space or opened up for a seamless group experience. Need even more space? Twin Palms Townhouse, our sister collection of three additional properties, is right next door. Together all six properties can accommodate groups of virtually any size while keeping everyone just steps apart.

GETTING AROUND

Off-street parking included. Walk to the beach, the pier, local coffee shops, corner markets, and Ventura's vibrant Main Street restaurant and bar scene. Catch the Saturday farmers market, explore the historic Mission, or grab a board and hit the surf. A short drive gets you to Ojai, Montecito, Santa Barbara, and beyond.

Beautiful property, convenient and super comfortable

We enjoyed our stay at this beautifully equipped property, which is in a great location and has wonderful landscaping and outside space to enjoy. Technology works very well, and the kitchen was a pleasure to share a cup of coffee in. A beautiful property through and through! And just a lovely walk's distance to downtown!

A real Gem!

Absolutely loved staying here! Perfect for the 2 of us. Location is great and the cottage is very clean with great amenities. Not to mention the lovely interior and beautiful landscaping. Very well thought out layout . The owner texted back immediately for any questions we might have had. We will be back!

Weekend Getaway

My fiancé and our two friends wanted to find a place that was close to downtown Ventura and would be comfortable for us all. This place was perfect! We were able to walk to Main Street no problem, there’s plenty of street parking, and we found ourselves enjoying the fire pit every night! Would definitely book this property again, and even plan to book the neighboring houses for other friends as well! The location is perfect and the size was just right for the four of us.

A lovely little place with a cozy feel

I stayed with my adult daughter and it was perfect for us! It would probably be tight for 4 adults due to bathroom and dining size, but super for 2 adults or adults with young children. Technically, it's walking distance to downtown, but a bit far if you are in a hurry or, like me, have a "bum knee". Great décor, comfortable beds, quiet space, lovely outside, and easy parking are a plus of The Birdhouse! Also, I cannot say enough great things about the host - Sarah is wonderful! Communications were smooth and she was super accommodating to us!I would definitely stay again!

Awesome Bungalow Experience!

Absolutely LOVED our stay. Incredibly comfortable, peaceful, functional, fantastic amenities and close to everything but you feel like your far away. The yards were so beautiful and lots of space to enjoy conversation around the firepit and BBQ or quiet time on the porch swing. Communication and assistance from owners were instant! I will definitely stay again and highly recommend to my friends in the area. There are 3 bungalows next to each other that would be fanstastic to have a family reunion if you can schedule them ahead at the same time. Don't miss this little GEM!

One of the best vacation rentals we have experienced

As all the other reviewers have said, this property is extremely well-run and exactly as described. It's in a quiet neighborhood (the large apartment referenced in another review? No idea - there are small apartments all around, mixed in with the homes, but they are cute and clean and quiet) just a few blocks from everything in Ventura, including the beach. It's very well-stocked and extremely clean, completely privately fenced with cute outdoor seating and lighting, and really nice landscaping. Parked right outside our gate, and the host responded to texts immediately. The heat worked very well, beds were super comfy, and Ventura itself is a great place to spend a weekend. Would love to come back, and highly recommend!

Dream beach bungalow

This place was beyond perfect. My husband and our two best friends stayed there for my birthday. It had everything we needed. The house was immaculate. So cute. We loved the fire pit in the back. It was walking distance from downtown that is filled with all kinds of bars shops and restaurants. It’s a 5 minute drive to the pier. They left us a cute gift basket. Over all we couldn’t have found a more perfect place. There is another bungalow on the property and we have already started talking to my in-laws into taking us back there later this summer and renting both properties! Highly recommend.
