About this property

An Unbeatable Location with Historic Character

  • Historic Property in Santa Barbara's Premier Location

    Location is everything, and it's hard to find a better one in Santa Barbara. Situated in the highly sought-after West Beach neighborhood, you're just a short walk from the beach, Stearns Wharf, State Street, the Funk Zone, restaurants, shopping, wine tasting, and the Amtrak station.

    Please note that this is a historic property that is over 100 years old. While the apartment has been thoughtfully renovated and updated with modern comforts, part of its appeal is the charm and character that come with a historic coastal home. Guests seeking a brand-new luxury building may find the character of a historic property different from newer construction.

    We take great pride in providing an exceptional value in one of Santa Barbara's best locations. If, upon arrival, you feel the apartment is materially different from what was represented in the listing and does not provide the value you expected, please contact us immediately.

    Our goal is simple: we want every guest to feel comfortable, fairly treated, and confident in their booking..
