Affordable Beach Getaway #9 — blocks to the Beach, Downtown State St & Funk Zone

Welcome to our Affordable Beach Getaway, perfect for those who desire a quintessential Santa Barbara location, paired with exceptional quality and price. Nestled in the West Beach Area, you'll be a short stroll from the ocean, Stearns Wharf, the vibrant Funk Zone, and acclaimed dining and downtown shops.

Kindly note that the Affordable Beach Getaway is on the second floor (walk-up).

During your stay, you’ll be lavished with all the amenities befitting a perfect getaway: complimentary champagne upon arrival, bath essentials, high-end linens, and a Nespresso machine with pods, creams and sugar as well as reserved parking which is rare in such close proximity to the beach.

Our Affordable Beach Getaway offers a fully equipped kitchen, king bedroom, full bathroom with limestone throughout, a large living room with a full-size pull out couch, Waterford fireplace, 42” HD TV. Indulge in Mediterranean-like weather and bask in the Californian sun on your own private patio. This secluded outdoor space features a dining area, chaise lounge seating, and a grill — a perfect setting to dine alfresco and cook up local produce and seafood on the grill.

The romantic bedroom features a king bed and accompanying bathroom which is completed with limestone throughout, Santa Barbara custom cabinets and a shower tub/combo.

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.
During your stay at this apartment building, you're just a quick walk from Carriage and Western Art Museum. The apartment offers free WiFi and a kitchen.

Cute apartment in West Beach
This is a wonderful place for a trip to Santa Barbara. The apartment is very clean and well appointed with amenities making for a very comfortable stay. It’s located in a quiet area of West Beach with easy walking distance to the beach, the funk zone, and shops and restaurants. There is even a few small grocery stores around the corner to grab snacks and staples. But everything in Santa Barbara is just a quick drive away. Such a wonderful city to explore! I would definitely return!

Perfect location perfect vacation
Everything you need in a cozy apartment space. Very accessible to Restaurants and beach. Good directions and suggestions for activities and access. Apartment was a little dated needed a bit a a refresh but comfortable. Painters were there the entire time and we needed to know this beforehand. They were parked in our spot a couple of times, and they were working in and around the unit. Generally we enjoyed our stay.

Great Santa Barbara Charm
What a great find! Location was excellent for walking to the harbor, beach, shops and restaurants. Very charming old building with updated and renovated units with character and personality. Bedroom was quiet and dark for great sleeping, on a super comfy bed. The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed, new appliances, and even a gas Weber grill on the deck. The furniture was comfortable and they even had fans. We had a great stay and would return!

Perfect Condo for a Couple
Wonderful time in Santa Barbara. Condo unit was as advertised. Very clean, very comfortable, perfect for a couple. Location was perfect, we parked the car and walked to the beach, restaurants, etc. Neighborhood is quiet. The patio and lounge chairs are very nice and relaxing. Definitely enjoyed our stay at the Affordable Beach Getaway.

Fabulous location and apartment
We have stayed in this apartment before and we were very happy to return for a 10 night stay. Excellent location and the apartment is very comfortable. I like to read a book on the sun lounges and although the weather was a bit chilly it was warm in the sun. Easy flat walk to the shopping area in State street and very close and quick walk to the beach. The bedroom has block out curtains and the bed is extremely comfortable. Highly reccommend

Great location just a couple blocks to the beach and very shot walk to to pier. Love the big, rambling yellow house with this unit on the second floor ( and the fun balcony ! ) Everything is just right, with lovely decor, a big comfy bed, plenty of closet space, etc. A perfect spot of a couple's getaway - so glad we chose this place!

Jan 1-12 stay
Overall we really liked our stay. The furniture and fixtures were clean and comfortable and well suited to the property. We have two comments regarding what might improve the property The front hallway closet had a musty smell, which was off putting when we first entered. Also, as we are from the midwest, we were not used to the softened water. Lastly, there were a few ants in both the kitchen and bathroom.

Great location and a welcoming property
We loved the location, at walking distance to most of downtown Santa Barbara! The unit is in a well-maintained building and dedicated parking was a great bonus. We were there during a serious heat wave, and unfortunately, just like this home, I would imagine that a lot of homes in Santa Barbara don't have AC. The fans could have been better in the apartment, but aside from that we had a good time!
