About this condo rental
Nestled in Carpinteria, this charming condo for $195 per night is a great choice for your next break. Beautiful, recently updated 1 Bedroom/1 Bath apartment that is part of a larger home, with a private staircase entrance. This lovely retreat is peaceful and relaxed, with wood floors, lots of light and comfortable touches throughout. Sleeps 4. Queen bedroom with ample space and lighting, queen comfortable sleeper bed in sofa. Luxury linens and towels provided. The kitchen is well-stocked for all of your food preparation needs. There is a large microwave, large toaster oven, and a full-size fridge. It features a new dishwasher. Also for cooking there is an outdoor grill, a hot plate and plug-in griddle for pancakes and the like. The kitchen has ample counter space and a deep sink, and overhead there is a skylight.

Relax on the balcony, and enjoy the view of downtown Carpinteria, complete with many palm trees. Parking is available for one car behind the apartment, and there is plenty of street parking for any other vehicles. Since this apartment is attached to our home, this is NOT the right space for guests looking to come and party. The parking space is located right below one of our bedrooms. Check in the first night is no later than 11:00 pm. During any subsequent nights, if you think you will arrive back at the apartment after 12:30 am, we ask that you park on the street (very safe), not in the assigned spot, to preserve the sleep for our family members. Thank you! Carpinteria License # 1002-HS-21 Carpinteria Transient Occupancy Tax of 12% is included in the VRBO rate. RECOMMENDATIONS from past guests~ 'I have LOVED visiting Carpinteria over the years, and it's is a real treat to stay in this cozy and well-cared for beach unit. The attention to detail, privacy, views, and comfort are just some of the highlights of our stay. I will recommend this clean and bright 'happy place' to anyone looking to visit Carpinteria.' JM from Valencia, CA 'Matt and Toby were wonderful hosts! Their 'downtown charmer' was perfect for my mini vacation. I enjoyed being close to town with easy access to restaurants and shops! Also their place was within walking distance to the beach. The rental is very comfortable and has nice amenities such as a small kitchen, great balcony, and a separate bedroom from the living area. I slept so well there! I hope you enjoy your time there as much as I have!' Anna, Chicago, IL

The place was just as advertised. Great view of palm trees from balcony. Very friendly when we needed to clarify the location of the key and responded immediately. The kitchen and bathroom was just the right size for two of us.

Beautiful, clean and well situated. Very comfortable with everything you need for a great vacation. Although, since it is attached to a main house, kids next door were a bit noisy and you can hear them running around. Otherwise it was really nice. Thank you Toby!!

My family and I had to extend our California vacation by a week on extremely short notice and this location just happened to be available for exactly the dates we needed. We were already happy to just find a place; we were overjoyed to find that that place chosen was a wonderful location and perfect for our family. From the surprisingly comfortable pull-out to the toys for the younger set, everything we could have wanted was covered. We hope to visit again!

The stay was great! Location was perfect for me. The bed was extremely comfortable. The only negative was the sleeper sofa - it may just be the nature of these as it wasn't as comfortable as described. Maybe it's time for a new layer of foam?
All in all, nvery happy with our hosts and the apartment.

Great for a quick trip
We have two kids ages 2.5 and 14 mos. While the sleeping situation was a little tricky with only one bedroom we figured it out. Not a bad distance from the beach, although we did have a car. It wouldn't have been bad to walk if we had decided to do that. The kitchen does not have a range, only a hot plate, so if you need to cool anything just be aware. However, that wasn't a big problem for us.
It has been a great stay! Happy to have found this place.

Best weekend ever!
I enjoyed my time in Carpinteria with my two sons for a short, but sweet, family mini vacation. The apartment was amazing; clean, bright, airy and perfectly located for us to enjoy all the the lovely town of Carpinteria has to offer. We really enjoyed having the barbecue grill available to is. We also appreciated the ability to use the washer/dryer as out towels got super wet and dirty the first day there. Our hosts were not around but we had no need for them to be because everything was well-provided at the apartment and they gave us lots of instructions that were very helpful. The bed was very comfortable; however, the sofa bed was not. I have never met a sofa bed that was comfortable, so that is no reflection on our hosts. The only thing remotely negative for me was that I did not realize that the apartment did not have a stove. I am sure I missed that in the description, but it caught me off guard when I arrived. They did provide for our cooking with a hot plate and an electric griddle which were fine for what I brought to cook. I am very grateful to have had the weekend there with both of my sons and appreciated being able to stay in such a nice, comfortable home! I will highly recommend this location to my friends and look forward to being able to come and stay again someday.

The 'Downtown Charmer' is a perfect respite...
We are so glad that we chose this Downtown Charmer to land while our kitchen remodel was going on. We are a local family and when we needed to get out of our normal home for a few days this apartment provided everything. It's convenient location with the grocery store and farmers market a half block away made shopping easy and fun, it felt like being in Europe to take a charming stroll to shop for the night's meal. We used the BBQ every night and sitting on the little front porch with a cold beverage watching the sunset while dinner cooked was a joy. The accommodations were pristine and tastefully done, the space is bright and airy. We really appreciated the laundry machines provided! Thank you Toby for creating such a perfect respite.

Life at the Beach
I love Carpinteria and this place was lovely! It is located right off of the main street, Lindon, and we easily walked to the restaurants and breweries every evening. We drove to parking near the beach easily. (You could walk we just didn't want to carry our stuff.) The place was spotless and the perfect size for a vacation. I will definitely stay here again!

Great place & owners
My family and I travel to Carpinteria each summer and really enjoyed our stay at this clean, natural light filled rental property. The decor and furnishings were very welcoming and we had everything that we needed for our week and half long stay. We especially enjoyed the lovely views and ocean breezes from the balcony, and almost everything is in walking or biking distance. The owners are extremely nice and responsive to requests; their communication is prompt and informative. Thank you for your hospitality Matt & Toby and we hope to see you on future visits to your beautiful beach town!

Very nice well kept; love Carp!
This apartment is attached to the owner's home. As such we felt the need to try to be quiet and had less "sound" privacy. But the apartment itself is very nice. Everything seems brand new and very clean.
Note there is no cooktop/oven, although there is a large toaster oven and microwave.(Kids wanted to make pancakes - had to "settle" for toaster waffles!)
We were concerned that being on 8th street would feel far from beach but it is still an easy walk. We love this town!

Affordable Carp
This was a very clean, newly renovated, quality spot for a single or couple looking for an affordable spot in walking distance to the beach in Carp. Really nice 3+ block walk down Linden to the beach. Downtown Carp is a gem; quiet, clean and really friendly. Hey only a block or so to the train... ride up to Carp for the weekend. Great Escape.
We'll be back!!! Thanks for the great place to stay.

What a nice place near the beach and the main part of town. The owners were a great help in getting settled in and gave us great advice re local places and things to do and see. We plan on coming back next year and will try staying here if the dates work out.
Our kids and grand kids had a blast
See you next summer or maybe before

Summer Kick Off Family Fun
Your place has been a blessing to our family! It was a perfect way to celebrate end of school for our elementary aged kids and kick off summer break. We created amazing memories as a family and the kids have made us promise to come back again! Beautiful, well appointed, guest home with all the necessary items you would need for a short or extended getaway! Central to the quaint downtown shops, eateries, and of course walking distance to the beach! This was our first visit to Carpinteria and our kids had a blast and loved seeing all that the town had to offer. Location was perfect for our walks and scooter rides through town and down to the beach. We are already planning when we can return. Thank you for opening up your home and the special touches during our stay that made it all the more special! See you again soon!

Beautiful & CLEAN beach apartment
We had a great winter beach retreat over the New Years holiday. The apartment is clean and beautifully decorated. I was able to pack light since there is washer/dryer in the unit. I loved that!! The kitchen doesn't have a conventional stove top, but the owners have done a good job providing supplemental equipment so you can still cook anything you need. (I like to cook so I planned ahead and brought my crock pot).
The apartment is located within walking distance to grocery, coffee, restaurants and shops. We walked to the beach for sunsets and it was magical.
The apartment is attached to the owner's home, so the close quarters allowed us to hear each other's footsteps and such, but it is not a deal breaker. We enjoyed our stay. Thank you Matt and Toby, your place is a little piece of heaven.

Incredible
This rental was gorgeous and refreshing! Absolutely delightful! It has the feel of a charming European bed and breakfast. The windows are bright and beach air smells so good breezing gently through. Immaculate, modern and new. Daily we strolled to the shore and enjoyed the quaint and beautiful town. Everything you could need is within a block yet the cottage resides on a quiet street. We came home refreshed and full of sweet memories with our children. We highly recommend this rental! We are grateful to have found such a treasure.
