wish it was cleaner

the only bad thing was that the windows were so dirty that we could not see out of them. Also, trash area under the counter was dirty and smelly. Love the location. Very cute

Wonderful stay!

I was looking for a small place to stay in beautiful Carpinteria that was within walking distance of the beach and the downtown. This unit was perfect! We had a wonderful time, and if we make our way back to the area, we will definitely look to rent this property once again.

Very nice apartment

Very pleasant place. Clean, good towels. Sheets could have been better but I’m really picky about them. No bedside table so I had to rearrange the furniture a bit, but overall a nice place. Google maps directs you wrong to get there.

Fine for a short stay

The condo was small, feeling more like a studio. There were sliding glass doors across the bed nook, so… bedroom. The unit has everything you need for a stay, but way too much clutter. Even some random luggage taking up very limited floor space. The location is great, although there's no deck to enjoy it from. We quite enjoyed our stay.

Perfect Getaway

Came here for a mini getaway to disconnect. The beach was literally across the street. I loved it and cant wait to come back. Some of the kitchen utensils could use an upgrade and the spray oil was expired, but it was nothing a quick trip to the market couldnt fix. I also loved the gated parking lot.

This is the prettiest and most modern rental I’ve stayed in! So clean, with lots of kitchen supplies and storage for our stuff. Very close to the beach and business district. It was easy to rent and check in/ out. Would recommend!

Cute, Small Apartment, But Needless Decor

Apartment is very small, but still adequate for only two people. Unfortunately, storage space needed by guests are taken up by unnecessary decor. Example: 1) Hallway console cabinet needed for storing suitcases/backpacks is cluttered with sea-themed glassware, and cabinets are filled with owner's items. 2) Hallway space needed for ice chests and backpacks is cluttered with retro-style decor suitcases and a huge decorative bottle. 3) Kitchen shelving needed for storing guest food items like cereal, coffee, tea, and canned goods is cluttered with 20+ drinking glasses and 10+ coffee mugs, yet management allows only 2 guests. 4) Apartment has 4 heavy metal, rustic (and uncomfortable) bar stools, when only 2 bar stools are needed. Hard to sit on if you don't have much of a tush. 5) Living room space is taken up by a bulky square rolling coffee table. A much smaller table would open up the area. 6) Floating shelf over the toilet is perfect for storing guests' personal hygiene products, but holds a large metal fish decoration, making shelf useless. Other issues - inadequate lighting in dining/living room area. It's impossible to read at night in that area. Suggest brighter bulb over the counter; eliminate end table to the left of the couch and place a pole light with bright LED bulbs. Apartment is warm because the two sky lights are stuck in the closed position, making cross ventilation impossible via the living room window. We could not open sky lights.

A Turquoise Gem!

We had a wonderful week's vacation in Carpentaria and stayed in this very cute, very turquoise gem! It was small but had a private comfy sleeping area, a wonderful shower, and a kitchen with everything one needs! Would definitely stay there again!
