The lovely property was exactly as advertised. We had an easy late-hours check-in and the local contact was very prompt in answering any questions during our stay. The property was perfectly located between the beaches and the local restaurants. The mattresses were excellent.
The hot tub had good jets and felt great in the cool evening. The back bedroom got very hot during the day with only a ceiling fan to cool it down. Otherwise lovely apartment with nice porch and view of the hills in great location. We picked it for the proximity to all the shops and restaurants and it was perfect for that. A nice walk to the beach as well.

Clean & comfortable beds and an amazing location. We’ve stayed here twice. It’s a reliable spot that could use some tlc and a few more kitchen items / repairs but the location makes it perfect.
Just a wonderful place to stay in Carpinteria. Really can't beat the location, comfort, space, backyard, parking, etc. Right by the main streets of the city, yet quiet and charming.
Just a wonderful place and great neighborhood to be in Carpinteria.

Wonderful experience!
We absolutely love staying in the Castro house in the heart of Carpinteria! We love the spacious layout of this historic vacation rental! Everything was well appointed, the beds were so comfortable. We had everything we needed in the kitchen. to cook meals and loved the 10 minute walk to the beach. Jana was very responsive with messaging and very sweet as well! We look forward to coming back soon. I highly recommend staying at the Castro house! Warmly, Arabella

Charming place!
Loved this quality home of character! Beautiful throughout with comfortable beds, enjoyable private hot tub, nice kitchen, good and helpful communication and with every other amenity we needed. Also, location wise you can easily walk anywhere in this quaint town. With such lovely old time detail, they just don't build homes like this anymore.

Castro House
Well-stocked, clean, and very comfy bed. Close to restaurants.
Our family took a quick weekend away up in Carpinteria. We have visited many of the other beach towns along the coast, but had yet to visit here. The home was aptly described and very walkable to restaurants, coffee shops, ice cream, and even vinyl. We enjoyed our time, but had a major problem with a non-functional refrigerator. One of our favorite things to do on these home stays is to cook and eat together as we have so little time in our regular routine. We purchased food for the weekend and stored it in the fridge before finding out the the fridge was not keeping our food cold. Our host Jana was very communicative and we followed steps of purchasing dry ice at Smart and Final while unplugging the fridge for the entire night. Unfortunately, the dry ice froze some of the food, the rest spoiled, and the fridge still didn't function in the morning. Jana reimbursed us for the dry ice and our spoiled food, but it definitely dampened our fun weekend and we had to spend more money on eating out. We go on vacation to de-stress but this added to it. Overall, we did the best we could and tried many of the neighboring restaurants. There are plenty of them! The hosts are purchasing a new fridge for future guests, but that did not help us during our stay. So, overall we enjoyed our time, but it could have been better.
We always enjoy staying at this great find in downtown carpinteria. The property is very clean and has everything you need.

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
The host was extremely responsive. The home itself was over 100 years old and had all the problems that come with age: no heat in one of two bedrooms and the bathroom; no working outlets in the bathroom; bad smell; ant infestation. The shower had a single, half-panel of glass so you were basically out in the open and without heat, it was freezing.

Comfortable property in ideal location.
We loved it and are going back for another week later in August.
Beautiful and spacious. Great location, close to shops and restaurants. Comfortable beds and overall quite cozy. Accurately described. We enjoyed our stay!
Enjoyed our stay for our daughter’s graduation. Loved being able to walk to restaurants and the beach. The house is well located and we liked the private back patio area. One small bathroom is not ideal but beds were comfy and kitchen and living space were good!
The apartment was clean and welcoming! We enjoyed being so close to shops and restaurants, as well as walking distance to the beach.
Our pups also loved being able to vacation with us!!!
