About this apartment rental
Summary:
This Santa Barbara vacation home sits a short bike ride from the beach with a stunning rooftop terrace and outdoor fireplace. The 2-bedroom, 2.5-bath home features coastal design, a ground-floor garage, and a main-level fireplace. Summer means beach days and rooftop sunsets, while winter invites cozy fireside evenings indoors and out. Great for couples, small families, or friends traveling with dogs.
The Space:
The home sleeps 4 across two bedrooms on the second floor. The master bedroom has a king-size bed, flat screen TV, private deck, and ensuite bathroom with jacuzzi tub, walk-in shower, and dual sinks. The guest bedroom offers a queen-size bed, TV, reading nook, and ensuite bathroom with shower. A half bathroom is available on the main level. The third-floor main living area features an open floor plan with a living room, dining table seating for six, and fully equipped kitchen with modern appliances and ample counter space. A washer and dryer are located in a closet off the kitchen. Entertainment includes flat screen TVs, DVD player, and WiFi throughout. The living room centers around a fireplace, and the fourth-floor rooftop terrace offers the home's standout feature: sweeping sunset views, an outdoor fireplace, gas grill, and multiple seating areas for alfresco dining and lounging. Ground-floor entry includes a 1-car garage through a gated entrance. Dogs are welcome with advance notice.

Wonderful property very close to the beach, harbor and downtown Santa Barbara. Great terrace views.
6 / 10Average·Jan 2025
We absolutely loved this place the first time so obviously we came a second time. What went wrong with our stay the second time though is that the unit that is adjacent to this one started construction (hammering) at 730am in the morning every single morning we were there. We left a day early since it was really killing our relaxing vacation vibe.
