Apartment vacation rentals in Santa Barbara County

Comfortable stay for our first time in Santa Barbara! Located within minutes of the beach and a quick drive to downtown. Highly recommend!

This was our first time visiting Carpinteria and we enjoyed our stay here very much. Elena allowed both of our small dogs to stay with us, the beach was only about 2 minutes away, and most of the downtown area was very walkable. We also enjoyed walking along the trails of the Salt Marsh Nature Park which was across the street from us. The apartment was very clean and was fine for the two of us and our two small dogs. The only negative was that the people above us were very loud at times after 10pm and also before 8am. Elena was a wonderful host and we hope to back again some time soon for another stay. Thanks again Elena!

We had a great stay here! The location was perfect—super close to UCSB and the Amtrak station, which made it really convenient for our quick weekend trip. We were in town for our daughter’s senior cello recital, and this place worked out so well. The home has 3 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, which suited our needs perfectly. It was free of clutter and comfortable, though it could have been a bit cleaner. Still, it was a cozy and functional space. The bathroom was stocked with shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and toilet paper, which was great. Just a heads-up: the lotion and toothpaste were empty, so it’s a good idea to bring your own for convenience and hygiene. The kitchen is fully equipped, although we only used the microwave and fridge during our stay. We appreciated that they provided drinking water, and parking space—such a nice touch. Be careful not to get a parking ticket on the street. Overall, we had a lovely time and would definitely stay here again.

Cute and cozy studio with a kitchenette in a neighborhood close to freeway, UCSB and strip mall with grocery store, Starbucks, etc. The Gerrits asked what we needed for our coffee ahead of time and provided the decaf Keurig cups and oatmilk that we preferred. They also provided free bottled water and snacks too which was much appreciated! We stayed during a very warm weekend so we slept with the window open and fan on. Not sure if there is A/C in the unit though so check with the host if that’s a must have.

The loft is exactly as described and surrounded by so many charming places to eat, shop, and relax. Paul has created an efficient and lovely loft. Oliver is super responsive, and all the instructions were very clear. It's near the freeway, so you can pop over to Santa Barbara or Carpinteria in 10 minutes. There is a bit of freeway noise, so earplugs might be helpful for light sleepers. But at night, it's a mix of ocean waves and light freeway hum, so it served as white noise for me to sleep really well on the comfy bed. A great location with great hosts!

I am so grateful for Amy’s place. It was our first time in los Alamos and I will be calling amy every time I want to stay again. She is a great host and the condo was spotless and comfy. The location cannot be beat and I cannot recommend it highly enough.

Easy check-in, clean, and comfortable. Would definitely stay again!

Jose was very easy to communicate with. The apartment was perfect for our quick trip.

Our stay was lovely and the place was perfect for me, my husband, and our two friends! Would definitely book this spot again!

My girlfriend and I really enjoyed staying here. The location is walking distance from many hiking trails, and a short drive from downtown Santa Barbara. The bnb has all the essentials done well (A/C, clean bathroom, nice sleeping area, jacuzzi, easy check-in). In addition, Carla was very communicative and responded helpfully whenever we had questions.

Wonderful Stay in Santa Barbara! I had a fantastic experience at this condo in Santa Barbara. The location couldn’t have been better—just a short walk to great restaurants, shops, and the beach. It was so convenient to explore the area without needing a car. The condo itself was charming, clean, comfortable, and had everything I needed for a relaxing stay. I’d definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Santa Barbara!

Everything was awesome, very nice, simple, clean, inviting space. Had to be patient with the shower hot water but everything else really was easy and perfect.

This place is a hidden gem in Santa Barbara. Beautiful neighborhood, home has great outdoor and indoor space. I felt right at home. Host was extremely responsive and helpful. Would choose to stay here next time over other places.

Clean, quiet, convenient and private, our stay worked out great for us since we were close to our family and that was essential. We both slept great, and we actually figured out how to use the TV! I loved seeing Elvira’s beautiful vegetable and flower garden out front, and having all the lighting really helped us find out way home at night. I would definitely come back.

loved it cause it was at the beach not too small or too big nostalgic

Awesome place matched the photos to a tee would definitely recommend and stay here again

Great location, great place to stay. We have stayed here a few times and it’s always clean and the amenities are great.

Had a great time! Geoff and Annika were great hosts. The sauna was so nice after a long hike. The place was clean, peaceful private, and easy to get to. Easy check in and out.

Great spot right next to the beach. We watched the sunset on the beach, took bike rides to the pier and spent countless hours in the jacuzzi. Check in was seamless and the garage was an added bonus. Keep in mind that it's a tight squeeze and an SUV will probably not fit in there. The host was very responsive and took care of an initial issue with the hot tub. It was one of the main reasons we booked it and we were glad he responded quickly.

We had an incredible visit to Santa Barbara staying here! Everything looked just like the pictures and the back patio was gorgeous. We loved the quick walk up to the beach and had no problem with taking the time to walk into downtown. We really appreciated Maddi’s recommendations for food, drinks, and hikes. Very convenient place, highly recommend!

As always when we've stayed before it was a marvelous experience, quiet, comfortable, & peaceful. The place was clean, prepared & well supplied for guests. We loved the closeness of the beach, however, the defining aspect for us is feeling relaxed & rejuvenated with each stay.

Absolutely the best stay ever, Julie was outstanding in her communication and her place was ideal in every regard. I can not even say to all that is so easily accessible from her location. Every need I had was obtained in less than 7mins from her residence. I felt completely at home and more than satisfied with my stay. Have recommended Julie to all my friends and personally will seek her out as my first choice for all future visits. 5stars for accessibility, cleanliness and every consideration being accounted for…Julie is a diamond and I’m a world traveler so you won’t be disappointed I can assure you of that 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Absolutely loved our stay! The place is as beautiful as the pictures and we loved being able to walk to the main drag with tons of restaurants and coffee shops in Montecito, as well as Butterfly beach. We enjoyed relaxing at the house and kept the windows/doors open in the afternoon for the fresh ocean breeze and enjoyed cooking dinner at the house one of the nights. The jacuzzi was lovely.

Charming unit and a short walk to Linden Ave. A few hundred yards to beach entrance. Host was very responsive. We will come again.
