Luxury Seaside Getaway #7— blocks to the Beach, downtown & the Funk Zone

Welcome to the Luxury Seaside Getaway—a serene hideaway nestled in the heart of Santa Barbara. The space is adorned in Provence style, featuring hand-cast plaster, faux painting, 10-foot vaulted ceilings, and curated antiques, sharing a romantic European ambiance. Bask in Mediterranean-like weather and dine alfresco in your own courtyard.

Just a stone's throw from the ocean, Stearns Wharf, the vibrant Funk Zone, and acclaimed dining and shops, our quintessential location adds to the allure.

During your stay, delight in the luxurious amenities that define our beautiful getaway: complimentary champagne upon arrival, luxury bath essentials, a private washer & dryer, high-end linens, a Nespresso machine stocked with pods, creams, and sugar, and reserved parking— a rare convenience near the beach.

The warm and inviting living room features a 36” HD TV, sleeper sofa, French doors which open into a private, picturesque courtyard as well a Waterford fireplace that enhances its ambiance. The kitchen is a chef's dream, meticulously equipped with a stove, Sub-Zero refrigerator, granite countertops, and custom PJ Mulligan cabinetry in a calming sea-foam green, capturing the calming essence of the ocean. A private washer & dryer are also conveniently located in the building.

Beyond the French doors in the living room a charming, private courtyard awaits, complete with an Italian fountain, chaise lounges, a gas grill, and a dining set— a perfect setting to sun-bathe and cook up local produce and seafood on the grill.

In the romantic bedroom, you'll find a king-sized bed, ample closet space, and an adjoining bathroom with beautiful limestone surfaces. Delight in the spacious dual-head shower, perfect for two. Beneath an exquisite stone-carved portrayal of "the maiden," the Jacuzzi tub provides an ideal setting to unwind after a day at the beach.

Our luxury beach getaways —in the Historical West Beach area— reside in a historical turn of the century building which retains the charm of the day’s bygone. The building has been lovingly restored to reflect Santa Barbara's ambiance, its array of apartments revealing both romantic and European styles. Our various spaces are complemented by luxurious details from Carrera marble surfaces, hand cast plaster, 10 feet vaulted ceilings and Waterford fireplaces.

Located in the heart of Santa Barbara, you’ll be steps from the beach and blocks from Stearn’s Wharf and the harbor, world renowned dining and downtown shops, as well as the Public Market and our own local farmer’s market. Close proximity to the vibrant Funk Zone also adds to the allure. This nook where the streets meet the ocean, was was one an industrial spot, but is now a flourishing space with lively and artistic locale. The benefit of nearby bike rental shops and the downtown Amtrak station further allows for easy transportation. As you’ll be located downtown, beautiful shops and restaurants lining State Street and nearby beaches and gardens are perfect for unwinding, whereas, nearby Channel Islands and wine country prompt adventurous day trips.

Nestled between the Santa Ynez Mountains and the Pacific Ocean on the Central Coast of California, Santa Barbara offers dreamy ocean panoramas paired with Spanish-style architecture. Santa Barbara is home to miles of stretching, sandy beaches. A few steps inland, and you’ll find a trove of blooming gardens, towering palms and lush parks. This gentle crescent of California coast, known as the American Riviera, connects breathtaking beaches, soaring mountains, verdant vineyards, elevated enclaves and eclectic communities.
Make yourself comfortable in this apartment, which features a fireplace. There's a private patio. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Complimentary wireless internet access is available to keep you connected. The bathroom has a jetted bathtub and a hair dryer.

Great spot if you want to be close to the funk zone and State Street. The apartment is clean, and safe, and has space for one car to park. The kitchen is nice but if you want to cook, bring a sharp knife because everything in the drawer is dull. Otherwise I highly recommend it

Great location and beautiful place!
I recently had the pleasure of staying at this condo. Its prime location was the standout feature, situated just a short stroll from both the beach and a variety of delectable restaurants. The condo itself was a delightful blend of modern comfort and timeless Spanish style design. From the moment I stepped inside, I was greeted by the warmth of Mediterranean-inspired decor and an elegant yet cozy ambiance. The kitchen, equipped with upgraded appliances, and the spacious countertops. However, there were no patio door curtains for privacy when hanging out on the couch. Also, at times it felt a little stuffy and warm because there were no ceiling fans or portable fans in the common area. We did leave windows open but it still felt a little warm. Overall, this condo offered the perfect blend of location, design, and modern amenities, making it great vacation experience. I would recommend it to anyone seeking a relaxing and luxurious getaway.

Vacation getaway in Santa Barbara.
My wife and I stayed at the property for a mid-week vacation break. Beautiful, well appointed unit. Assigned parking spot at the back of the condo complex. Private patio with a gas bbq (perfect for an outdoor dinner or two). Short walk to W. Cabrillo Blvd, West Beach, Stearns Wharf and lots of great restaurants. Downtown is easily accessible by walking as well. No problems at all with our stay. Host was quick to respond to messaging. Nice bottle of bubbly as an arrival gift. We would definitely stay again.

Luxury is the right description!
When you arrive, you have an assigned spot in parking lot with security cameras. You are only a few steps from your condo, which is behind security gates. Once inside you get a strong Mediterranean vibe. Entire space has beautiful floor tiling. Living area has a comfy couch and modestly sized TV. Kitchen has beautiful granite counter tops, and old-world Mediterranean cabinetry, Wolf range/oven, SubZero fridge, and a nice modern dishwasher. Glassware, plates, bowls, and service ware are very nice and plentiful. If you want to cook, all the tools you need are available. Dual-paned Milgard windows throughout. Wi-Fi works really well. Off the living area is a private courtyard, with lounge chairs, patio seating, a BBQ and a nice water feature, along with a security gate for easier access to a short walk to the beach. Moving to the bathroom, gorgeous! The floor tile is carried up the walls, and above the jacuzzi tub is a beautiful stone relief as a focal point. The shower is spacious with two rainfall heads and controls, with plenty of room for two people. The same granite counter tops and cabinetry as the kitchen are found here as well. The bedroom is rather plain, but efficient. There is a king bed with a very high-quality memory foam mattress, which was very comfortable. There is ample storage space in the closet with a bureau. We experienced no problems at all. The owner is VERY quick to respond if you message her through the app. This was a joy!

Nice Long Weekend Stay
Good location close to Carrillo Blvd and State Street. Can walk and get to many nice restaurants and beach area. Yanonuli Street can be a bit noisy with traffic off of Bath Street. Nice off street parking. Couldn't get into the laundry area to get the extra key. Called the property manager but never heard back. Had cleaning staff get the key for us. Not sure why you just can't put both keys in the lock box by the door or the extra one in the unit. Nicely accommodated and very comfortable.
