Luxe Villa in Funk Zone | Outdoor Kitchen, Mountain View, 2 Blocks to Beach

Santa Barbara Luxe Villa

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Enjoy true California living 2 blocks from the beach at this gorgeous 2BR/2BA Mediterranean-style villa -- half of a two-villa duplex.

Prepare dinner at the outdoor kitchenette with barbeque grill, mini-fridge, and sink, then dine alfresco at the four-person table. As the sun sets, gather around the gas fireplace and take in lovely views of the Santa Ynez Mountains.

ABOUT THE HOME

Terracotta bricks welcome you to your Mediterranean-inspired villa, where an open floor plan lets you gather with ease. Open the turquoise doors to the wrought-iron balcony and feel the ocean breeze in the living area. On cool winter nights, enjoy the warm ambience of the gas fireplace and watch a movie on the 54in flat-screen TV.

Prepare a delicious Mediterranean feast in the dreamy gourmet kitchen featuring granite countertops and state-of-the-art stainless steel appliances including a Dacor oven, Sub-Zero side-by-side fridge, and a gas stove.

Store local vintages in the wine chiller, and then gather around the large kitchen island for a tasting. In the nearby dining room, up to six can convene at the long wooden table beneath a wrought-iron chandelier.

Or head to the upper balcony and fire up the grill for an alfresco feast. Then light the fireplace and watch the stars come out over the mountains.

This rental sleeps six guests in two bedrooms, both with their own en-suite bathrooms.

The upper-level master bedroom is a private retreat with a queen bed, ceiling fan, gas fireplace, and balcony access. The spacious en-suite master bathroom features a walk-in shower with Moroccan tile work, jetted tub, and a separate water closet.

The second bedroom is on the main level and has a queen bed, a queen daybed, and a wrought-iron balcony overlooking Santa Barbara Street. The en-suite bathroom (also accessed from the hallway) has a walk-in shower.

Guest amenities include complimentary Wi-Fi, a full-size washer/dryer, and garage parking for two vehicles.

Although this home is not equipped with air conditioning, it is rarely needed with Santa Barbara's mild weather and portable fans are available if needed.

THE LOCATION

Located in the heart of The Funk Zone, you'll have plenty of dining and entertainment options. Metropulos Market & Deli, Topa Topa Brewing Co., Lafond Winery, Pali Wine Co., and Shalhoob's Funk Zone Patio are all just a short stroll away.

You're also just 2 blocks from the beach! Or walk to iconic Stearns Wharf, with its shopping and dining delights and the Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History.

For even more fun, check out the Old Mission Santa Barbara (2 miles) or rent a bike and go for a ride along the oceanside bike path. The Santa Barbara Zoo and Andree Clark Bird Refuge are also less than 2 miles away.

Awesome Place!
The location is amazing making it easy to walk to restaurants, shopping, the beach or just stroll around tasting wine. Great to have garage parking and home was appointed well. Minor complaint is that the pillows could be replaced or offer more options as they are very flat and both my husband and I walked away from our stay with sore necks. Note asking us not to use the elevator which was fine for us but should be noted and while we didn’t cook or grill it appeared that the grill may not be functioning and the balcony fireplace had a note apologizing for it being broken. That being said, we still loved this place and will definitely book again if we return to the area.

Great Location but not so Luxe
A bit of backdrop on me, I own short term vacation rentals so I always judge my stays v what I own. I will say this place was in an excellent location with a beautiful upstairs outdoor loft. But outside of that it wasn't so memorable. First off, the internet instructions provided were inaccurate and the internet was never fixed. We dealt with the internet our entire stay. Second, the dishwasher was broken. We notified Vacasa immediately and we were told they would send a service repair out. Never happened so we just wrote it off. Last but not least, there was a constant ant infestation and it only got worse. Once again, we notified Vacasa about the problem and they replied “Thank you for letting us know”. Basically did nothing about it. Noticed there was ant spray underneath the sink which to me means its a recurring problem. For the amount we paid, I would not recommend
