Rare Beach Penthouse — blocks to the Beach and Funk Zone

This apartment was clean, comfortable and was perfectly located. I will definitely stay here again.

Love the outdoor patio on this property. All amenities are full size. Truly felt at home here.

Lovely space. Small kitchen but useful. Close to funk zone. Enjoyed very much.

Great place to stay with an amazing patio. Convenient location close to the beach, wharf, harbor, Funk Zone and State Street.

Didn’t go to the national park as planned, but found a nearby hike called “hot springs trail” which I recommend. Love Santa Barbara and our rental. We had a few hiccups but Ally, the host took care of everything immediately. I would recommend this Vrbo, with the caveat that you have to climb two flights of steps. Otherwise, it was just perfect.

The place had ants. The last night the fire alarm went off randomly starting around 1 a.m. so no sleep. The owner only offered a discount on a future stay - as if I would return.

Overall, nice unit. All that was described was there. One minor complaint is that while the kitchen has all the appliances items u need (coffee pot, pots, pans, etc), the pantry w/regard to oils, spices, basic cooking amenities, were absent. Do check first if u require them. Also, the stairs can be challenging. This unit had 2 stairwells to navigate. This is made vry clear in the description,

Adorable little condo, great location, clean and comfortable. Safe location with your own parking space. My only complaint and it isn’t really a complaint is to be prepared to take your own kitchen condiments ie: salt and pepper etc. However small grocery store within walking distance too.

Nice location, nice patio, and enough room for two. Would definitely stay here again. BTW, bottle of champagne is a nice touch.

We really enjoyed our 6 day stay I the Penthouse!Very clean, comfortable and extremely good location. Evenings were great with cocktail hour on the the patio lounge chairs enjoying the view as the sun disappeared. Amenities were great including the off street parking. We are looking forward to returning!Thanks!

Our stay had some great features but also a few drawbacks:Pros:Perfect Location: The property is in a fantastic location, making it easy to explore the area.Convenient Parking: The parking lot was easily accessible and stress-free.Spacious Fridge: The kitchen features a large refrigerator, which was very convenient.Thoughtful Touch: The complimentary champagne was a lovely surprise and much appreciated.Entertainment Options: The TV had a great selection of channels and streaming services.Cozy for Two: The unit's size was just right for two people, providing ample space without feeling cramped.Cons:Cleanliness Issue: There was visible mold in the shower, which detracted from the overall cleanliness of the space.Kitchen Limitations: The kitchen was not as fully equipped as advertised, which made meal preparation challenging.Misleading Listing: The listing mentioned a bathtub, but there wasn’t one in the unit.Scented Linens: While fresh linens were provided, the use of heavily scented detergent could be reconsidered for guests sensitive to strong fragrances.Storage Needs: More hooks and adult-sized hangers would be helpful, especially for longer stays.Bed Comfort: The bed was not very comfortable.Temperature Control: Regulating the unit’s temperature was challenging. A fan stayed on continuously, and we were unable to turn it off.Overall, the location and thoughtful touches made our stay and we would stay again, but addressing these issues would be nice.

Visiting my daughter. Lovely apartment and walking easy to nearby restaurants

We loved our stay at The Penthouse. The property is clean, the location is perfect and the view is lovely. The property manager and host are both quick to respond to your needs,. Several units are available at this site, and all of them look inviting and well kept. We will definitely be back next time we are in the area!

Location was perfect for visiting all the best spots in Funk Zone as well as proximity to the beach and water in general. Place is great size for two people. Nespresso machine was a bonus!! Windows allowed great airflow through apartment. Bed is a queen. Complex was quiet. Train only went through a few times while we were there. Outdoor patio was a nice size. Having dedicated parking helped a ton.

This was our second stay in this penthouse. We have also stayed in the penthouse unit across the hall. Both are great. The location can't be beat and having a dedicated off street parking space is a real plus. We enjoyed the private patio too. We plan to return again next year.

In Santa Barbara for a wedding. Very convenient spot and wonderful apartment with roof patio to enjoy a glass of wine in the evening.

Wonderful property in great location. Beautiful patio. Quiet home. Would definitely stay here again.

Lovely apartment, well-furnished, stocked, and maintained, beautiful views, very clean. It was a pleasure staying here and I would definitely stay here again. Thank you for the welcome bottle of bubbly!

We had a pleasant 12 night stay in Unit 5 on the 3rd floor. Patio was a great amenity. Good location for walking and exploring. We recommend it.

We couldn’t have been more pleased with our stay in the Penthouse. Our arrival was later in the evening, so the checkin instructions given, made all very easy. The neighborhood is perfect and close for walking to the beaches, many restaurants, and small grocery store. Everything inside the Penthouse, we found to be extremely clean, the queen bed and linens were very clean and comfortable. We really enjoyed the complimentary champagne, coffee and breakfast on its cute outdoor patio. I highly recommend this Penthouse it is so unique and comfortable.

Booked this penthouse for my girlfriend’s birthday and it didn’t disappoint! The balcony is the perfect place for coffee, breakfast or just relaxing. Easy walk to the beach and Stearns Wharf. One thing to note is the driveway to the parking is very narrow and the parking area can be tight if every space is being used, so if you are driving a large truck or suv you may have trouble getting in as it felt a bit tight at times in our mid-sized suv. We really enjoyed our stay and would book again!

Great location and nice accomodations

We had a great stay and really enjoyed this place. The location is ideal and we biked everywhere. Place is really clean and well appointed. Full bed a little small but we made it work.
