    The apartment was nice and well stocked. It was very convenient to get to the beach. The pool was much smaller than shown. The refrigerator did not keep items very cold and our frozen items thawed. The manager did say he would rebate us some money, which we appreciated. The neighbors above could be heard moving around until after 11:00 pm every night.

    Location was wonderful. The apartment could use some TLC. For example, throw out all the knives and buy some that actually work.

    Nice stay. Very quiet complex. In need of new couches, and a dishwasher would be great.

    Nice to have a pool and beach within walking distance. Easy check in. Manager friendly and accommodating. Only thing is beds were not comfortable. Very bouncy. They need to be replaced.

    We had a wonderful time during our stay. The pool was so great for burning kid energy in the morning and afternoon, and you can’t beat the beachside location. Carpinteria is very walkable and lovely year round. There are no bells and whistles here but it was perfect for our needs. The property manager was very responsive when we needed more hand soap and toilet paper etc. Highly recommended!

    We rented this place several months before our stay. On our way to our vacation (with a car full of children and beach gear), we received a call that somehow we had gotten double booked and no longer had a place to stay. We had to pull the car over and scramble to find a different place to vacation. We tried to make the best of it, but our new place wasn’t what we were hoping and planning for. Because we never got to check in, I can’t attest to the actual property itself. The error ruined our spring break though.

    We had a great time. The place was clean, quiet, and a few minutes walk to the beach. Wonderful and hope to return soon!

    location is great, 2 min walk to the beach.10 min to several restaurants and liquor store, little further to large supermarket. we needed a couple of days rest after 2 hectic weeks travelling,it was perfect. The flat is ground floor, it's not new so a little 'tired' but everything is fine , clean and perfectly functional. Laundry almost outside the door. ( only problem was finding coins !) flat is easy to find with a parking spot. We would certainly stay again. Cons- no iron !( Meant to ask for one but was so chilled didn't bother !)

    The location is amazing, just 1 block from the beach. Pool is fun and clean. Nice garden in the facility. Ken was very responsive and always helped, a great host! The apt is well designed. Furniture and most appliances are rather old and the place was simply not clean (dishes were not really clean, floors were dusty, duvets need dry cleaning) . On the upside: kitchen was well equipped.
