We had a nice stay at this well equipped house with extended family and our dog. We appreciated the cleanliness, the many bathrooms, fluffy bath towels, and the short walk to the beach. We would stay here again.

VACATION ON THE BEACH

BrandiRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We absolutely loved our stay here. The house was clean, cozy and fully stocked. We spent lots of time on the porch enjoying the view and watching all the happenings on the beach, talking to neighbors and the staff at Slappy’s next door and our evening campfires. We will definitely be staying here again! There are 2 parking spots in the garage ideal for smaller cars or SUVs and a lot across the street that charges $20 a day where we parked our Tundra.

The Beach House at Silver Strand, Channel Islands

TimothyRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Wonderful home within walking distance to the Pacific Ocean. Convenience store within walking distance as well. Booking the place happened very quickly even as we were looking at the last minute. Response communications were very timely as well. The house was very cozy and conducive to our family getting together for my niece's graduation at CSU-CI. Loved that you can open the windows for fresh air. Beds were very comfortable. We enjoyed using the kitchen for home cooking and baking. Upstairs/outside deck was very nice, but we all preferred to stay inside the house. Totally recommend Jesse & Abha's home for your vacation get-away needs.

Mesa Retreat

LoriRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
10 stars! The house and property are extremely homey and comfy, in a low key, peaceful neighborhood. Plenty of spaces to spread out and enjoy. The best stocked kitchen I have ever had with Airbnb. Great appliances and kitchen gear if you love to cook. We had our dog and between the large private back yard and the 5 minute walk to the off leash preserve and 10 minutes to the Mesa steps down to the beach, we were in heaven. Frank was the consummate host… friendly, helpful and hands off. He sincerely wanted to make sure we were comfortable and enjoying our stay. We would definitely stay here again!!

Port Hueneme 2 Bd, 2BA w/ Ocean View Beach Living

JohnRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
My wife and I stayed here while I attended a conference 45 minutes away, inland. I’m so glad we stayed where we did because of the views. Not difficult to get around. Grocery store and restaurants are not a far drive away. The place had everything we needed. Older adults, so pretty quiet. You can see and hear the ocean from the condo. Host was quick to respond to any questions.

Carpinteria beach/pool condo/awesome beach views

JacquelineRating, 5 stars4 days ago
Nice, cozy condominium. Close to the beach and the private gated parking was awesome. We even enjoyed the pool daily. Loved walking to the beach daily. We would stay here again in the future. The kitchen was very well stocked for our needs. We were able to prep food for my son’s PhD graduation party which was held in Goleta. The refrigerator was large enough to hold the food. Thank you for sharing your condo with us. Jackie and Kevin Auburn. Ca.

Stroll Along the Shore at this Luxurious Retreat!

ChristineRating, 5 stars10 months ago
Our stay in Carpinteria was amazing! The host was very responsive and friendly. The location was absolutely perfect since we were one block from amazing beach with amazing sunrises and sunsets with a beautiful walk path. All the most amazing restaurants were in walkable distance or biking. There was also a grocery store nearby and coffee shops to choose from. The place was immaculate and had everything we needed. Bikes and other recreational equipment in the garage where very convenient. grill outside and fire pit were, our nighttime favorites since the nights get a little chilly. The views of the mountains and access to wine tour was also great. I would love to come back next time with my daughter.😊

Montecito Beach Cottage. Walk to restaurants.

RalphRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Nice, clean accommodations. I would describe the place more as a guest house than a home as it is attached to the main house to which the owner (Darren) resides. There is also another studio-type accommodation attached to the "house." Both were non-issues as they were quiet and rarely seen from the "house." We travel with our dogs and the backyard was great for them...quiet, large, clean, and private. Easy walk (~10 min) to Butterfly beach from the "house" as well as to town. The bedroom is bright due to the skylights so if you are a late sleeper, it may impact you. The bed was softer than my wife and I prefer. Overall a nice place!

TristanRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Lynn was a friendly host with really clear communication and everything went really smoothly. The home was cosy, just right for 2 couples, and we loved the hot-tub & private back yard. The cliffs and coast are 50m away and the area is safe, walkable, and very pretty with nice gardens. We had everything we needed and had a lovely time, and Santa Barbara is a beautiful place to visit. Thanks so much!
