El Jardin Pequeno Enter the wild and wacky world of Jeff Shelton! Vacation Rentals of Santa Barbara is proud to manage a home built by this world-renowned, Santa Barbara local architect, with a one-of-a-kind way of looking at the world. His ingenious fusion of whimsical artistry and vibrant function culminate in some of the most well-recognized buildings and happy homes in downtown Santa Barbara. El Jardin Pequeno is the two bedroom one bathroom home located on the second level of a 4-story building known as “El Jardin,” in the heart of downtown Santa Barbara. From street level, ascend the colorful steps that lead to a memorable retreat with plenty of personality. Morrocan tile, bright use of hand tooled glass, and custom wrought iron in varying shapes, are just the beginning of the signature style that makes staying at a Shelton-designed home a lively and fun experience for each and every guest. Cozy up on the blue velvet couch for movie night in front of a large flat screen tv. Whip up a yummy meal in the super-efficient KITCHENETTE with dual burner induction cooktop, microwave, and raised bar, please note there is no oven. One of the most stunning features is the unique suspended dining table with a smooth piano finish, and an irregular whimsical shape that makes game night or mealtime amusing. Hidden away is a full-capacity front-loading washer and dryer, perfect for extended stays or to keep towels ready for the next oceanfront outing. A sunny bedroom with a queen-size bed has the added sleeping convenience of a twin bunk bed to sleep four guests comfortably. In a second bedroom, enjoy a restful night's sleep, or a well-deserved breakfast in bed, in the comfortable queen-size bed. From either room, enjoy mountain views over Santa Barbara's red tile roofs, or awake to sunrise casting a warm glow over the city. A shared hall bathroom completes the offerings of this cool city apartment-style retreat. As is typical with many Santa Barbara homes, this property does not have AC. Open windows and the use of fans allow ocean breezes in to keep the house cool during hot summer months. Head out the front door to explore all that Santa Barbara has to offer. Take a self-guided tour of the other Shelton-designed homes, gather organic ingredients for dinner at the local Farmer's Market, sip tasty wines in the Funk Zone, or simply stroll over to nearby State Street, alive with energy and world-class shopping, eateries, galleries, theater and more. Treat yourself to a memorable stay at El Jardin Pequeno, for the fun of it! Additionally available upon special request is a third bedroom suite at ground level that can accommodate two more guests. A king-size bed, television, bathroom with walk-in shower, and ample size closet appoint this private suite nicely. \[Additional rates may apply\] ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the apartment: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Hob - Kitchenette - Microwave - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 shared bathroom - Hair dryer - Shower - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room ### Entertainment - Piano - Stereo - TV with cable/satellite channels ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washer/dryer ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Concierge services - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In the city centre - Near a health/beauty spa - Near a hospital - Near a zoo - Near the marina ### Things to do - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Jet skiing nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Mountain climbing nearby - Sailing nearby - Snorkelling nearby - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby - Swimming nearby - Whale watching nearby - Windsurfing nearby - Winery tours nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Unit size: 1,008 square feet ## Similar properties ![Executive Apartment, 1 King Bed with Sofa bed, Balcony, Mountain View | Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/118000000/117280000/117270300/117270236/e4f004f5.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Casa Riviera Laguna - Pet-friendly - Parking included - Free WiFi - Air conditioning 10 Exceptional 54 reviews £171 includes taxes & fees 3 Nov - 4 Nov [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-03&endDate=2025-11-04&selected=117270236&PinnedHotelID=117270236&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/113000000/112680000/112679500/112679415/w1229h1470x0y0-315ae930.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Funky, old, busted but charming: 3 bedroom house w WiFi, in lovely Santa Barbara Oak Park - Washer - Dryer - Air conditioning £759 includes taxes & fees 9 Oct - 10 Oct [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-09&endDate=2025-10-10&selected=112679415&PinnedHotelID=112679415&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/67000000/66920000/66919300/66919226/cc1da2c5.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Ocean Side Living With A Beautiful View Santa Barbara Beach - Kitchen - Free WiFi - Outdoor space - Beach view 10 Exceptional 16 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-22&endDate=2025-10-23&selected=66919226&PinnedHotelID=66919226&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/118000000/117670000/117667700/117667636/eb92647b.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Soul & Sea Guesthouse #7 ~ A Coastal California Stay on East Beach Santa Barbara Beach - Sea view - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 10 Exceptional 1 review [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-22&endDate=2025-10-23&selected=117667636&PinnedHotelID=117667636&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/89000000/88510000/88508800/88508774/4f91c628.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Beautiful Remodeled Condo With Patio Near West Beach Santa Barbara Beach - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly 10 Exceptional 13 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-22&endDate=2025-10-23&selected=88508774&PinnedHotelID=88508774&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![On the beach, sun-loungers, beach towels](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/114000000/113590000/113589000/113588924/db0763eb.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Soul & Sea #1 ~ Charming Boutique East Beach Guesthouse Santa Barbara Beach - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly 10 Exceptional 9 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-22&endDate=2025-10-23&selected=113588924&PinnedHotelID=113588924&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/30000000/29700000/29693400/29693318/cb28d4d6.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Steps to the Sand: Enjoy beach views & a private fenced yard.

It was clean and easily accommodated our family of four during our short two night stay. It has a small kitchen and cooktop perfect for a light breakfast before heading out but probably not condusive to cooking full meals. We also had trouble accessing the washer/dryer, which wasn't a big deal for our short stay. I would recommend this as a unique and comfortable place to stay if you plan to have most meals out on the town, which you totally should because the food and atmosphere is great! ##### Reetu C.

We found the unique and handmade elements throughout to be delightful.The rooms are large, though the kitchen is tiny. But who cares?--with so many good restaurants and bakeries within a few minutes walking distance.Though only one bathroom, it is large.The hot water in the bathroom sink is warm, but the shower has plenty of hot water. The washing machine and dryer worked fine.The property management agency is absolutely the BEST I've ever dealt with. Prompt and satisfactory responses were provided to every question or problem.Onstreet parking was not difficult in February, so we did not use the designated parking place.The long stairs up to this first floor apartment are steep and narrow, a bit difficult to negotiate with big suitcases.Don't miss the nearby farmers market on Tuesday and Saturday.Overall, we loved the unit, the excellent service and downtown location. ##### Joy B. Stayed 17 nights in Feb 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Donna A. 12 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great location, comfortable bed, sofa and nice television location. The general feeling is somewhat dated. The single bathroom for a 2 bedroom was disappointing. Very small wicker table was the only place to put bathroom necessities, literally 12 x 12 inches in a pretty large space. Electrical outlets were complex— sometime worked sometimes didn’t— very frustrating. Otherwise decent furnishings and great location. ##### Donna A. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Robert T. 26 Apr 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Santa Barbara The place was roomy for a two bedroom place. The media had Apple TV and Roku and Netflix devices. The shower water pressure was just enough. It would be nice if it was stronger. But this is not a big deal. The bathroom door needs the lock fixed as it wasn't able to be locked. Again not a show stopper but it would be nice if the house was checked first here and there just to keep the quality from going down. But overall we were happy. ##### Robert T.
