About this property
Affordable Beach Getaway #9 — blocks to the Beach, Downtown State St & Funk Zone
Experience the best of Santa Barbara at our Affordable Beach Getaway #9 — where comfort, style, and coastal charm converge. Soak up Santa Barbara’s dreamy weather on the private deck before exploring beautiful boutiques, art galleries, eateries, and tasting rooms in the nearby Funk Zone. Just blocks from the ocean, Stearns Wharf, and downtown State Street, everything you’ll need is right at your fingertips.
Our Affordable Beach Getaway #9 features a serene king bedroom, a fully equipped kitchen, and a bright, spacious living room complete with a Waterford fireplace, plush cozy couch, and 42” HD TV. Enjoy your morning coffee or bask in the sun on the patio. This private outdoor space includes a dining area, chaise lounge seating, and a grill — the perfect setting for alfresco meals. As the sun dips below the horizon, toast to another perfect day with a glass of our complimentary champagne.
The romantic bedroom boasts a king bed and an en-suite bathroom adorned with limestone finishes, custom Santa Barbara cabinetry, and a shower/tub combo. The kitchen is thoughtfully stocked with all essential culinary tools and amenities for your convenience.
To elevate your stay, we’ve included special touches throughout: complimentary champagne to toast your arrival, bath essentials, high-end linens, a Nespresso machine with pods, cream, and sugar, and reserved parking — a rare perk near the beach.
Please note: Affordable Beach Getaway #9 is located on the second floor (walk-up).
With effortless access to the beach and Santa Barbara’s most beloved attractions, the Affordable Beach Getaway #9 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. A couple blocks away, the Funk Zone brings an irresistible charm — a 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.

Why they chose this property
There are so many Santa Barbara properties available for rent. The number one difference between all of them are location, location, location. The closer to the beach and the closer to Santa Barbara the more expensive the real estate. We are 2 blocks to the beach and downtown, not on a commercial thorough fare, not next to the highway or railroad track and not a bus ride or car ride away from downtown. We combine our location with the best pricing and the best amenities. Finally, we are immaculately clean
