Affordable Executive Getaway #11 — blocks to the Beach, Downtown & the Funk Zone

Welcome to our Affordable Executive Getaway #11, where serenity, comfort, and value come together in Santa Barbara’s most coveted location. Located in the beautiful West Beach area, you’ll be just moments from the ocean, Stearns Wharf, the harbor, and downtown’s lovely dining and boutique scene. Spend your days basking in the sun, discovering local art galleries and wineries, and exploring the vibrant Funk Zone.

Thoughtful touches are included to make the most of your getaway: complimentary champagne to toast your arrival, bath essentials, high-end linens, a Nespresso machine stocked with pods, creams, and sugar, and reserved parking, a rare perk near the beach.

The inviting living space features a cozy sofa and a 42” HD TV, perfect for unwinding after a day in the sun. The fully equipped kitchen blends both functionality and style, with sleek limestone floors and modern stainless steel appliances, including a stove, oven, dishwasher, refrigerator, and microwave.

The serene king bedroom offers a peaceful retreat, with French glass doors that open to a small private terrace, providing charming foothill views. The adjoining bathroom is elegantly appointed with limestone accents, custom cabinetry, and a shower-tub combo for ultimate relaxation.

This apartment is located on the second floor (walk-up). Please note that the designated parking spot is in a small carriage house, suitable for one compact vehicle. The dimensions of the carriage house are 16.5 feet in length and 8 feet 8 inches in width. For additional convenience, street parking is available nearby. Alternatively, we offer other units with standard parking spaces.

With effortless access to the beach and Santa Barbara’s most beloved attractions, the Affordable Executive Getaway #11 offers the perfect blend of adventure and relaxation. Spend your days soaking up the sun, savoring local cuisine and happy hour cocktails in the Funk Zone, shopping downtown, or enjoying quiet moments with loved ones — all while surrounded by the natural beauty of the California coast. Tucked away on a residential street, our building offers a serene oasis just moments from the vibrant heart of Santa Barbara. Just blocks away, the Funk Zone brings an irresistible charm — a lively coastal enclave where streets meet the sea, brimming with art galleries, boutiques, wine tasting rooms, and eclectic eateries. Convenient bike rentals and the nearby Amtrak station make exploring even easier, whether you're strolling down State Street’s boutique-lined promenade or setting off on an unforgettable day trip to the Channel Islands or Santa Ynez wine country. Whether seeking tranquility or excitement, this perfect location ensures a memorable getaway you'll want to relive again and again.

Nice accomodation - clean and good loccation

We had a great time. The Getaway is clean and very well equipped. Sure beats the local hotel rooms and we picked it because of the price and were happily surprised when arriving that it was as advertised and even better. The bed is so comfortable too.

Great Stay

We thoroughly enjoyed our Santa Barbara stay. Downtown Santa Barbara was just great with lots of very nice restaurants, bars and cultural attractions. The place was very comfortable, well equipped and very clean. Neighborhood was very nice and safe and well located near downtown and readily accessible to other parts of the Santa Barbara area. Off street park very close to the unit was quite easy. We hope we have the opportunity to rent this unit again in this beautiful area.

Great location

Super cute building, we just returned from Italy and it sure resembles a lot of the VRBO’s we stayed in there. The location was close to the beach and town. We parked our car and didn’t use it until we left! The apartment is super cute and clean with a nice little patio. We loved falling asleep to the fountain outside. Highly recommend it!

Luckily, we have a very small car or parking would have been a problem. Listing stated there was a private washer & dryer with soap, this was not true. Although the manager promptly assisted us to the housekeeping laundry, listing needs to be corrected. Location was great, near beach & many restaurants.

Small but nicely furnished condo. Nicely remodeled. Very comfy KING BED. Short walk to beach, restaurants, town. Trolly/shuttle available too. Covered off Street parking. Immaculate. QUIET COMPLEX. Good for single or couple, not for families.

Good Choice for a Short Stay

Another tidy little unit in the big yellow house! Layout is a bit quirky with entry into the kitchen, a tight bathroom, and outdoor patio access from the bedroom. Eclectic furnishings and worn carpet give the impression of a college apartment, but the space is actually quite clean. The bed and sofa are very comfortable. We would have liked plumper head pillows and another six coffee cups in the cabinet to cut down on dishwashing. That said, the unit is a good choice for a short stay and we intend to return.
