We really appreciated the nicely appointed apartment and were pleasantly surprised to find the kitchen supplied with coffee, sugar, salt/pepper, saran wrap, foil and ziplock baggies. Although we didn’t cook because of the brevity of our trip, these supplies would have made cooking and clean up easier. We were also happy with the size if the apartment and that it allowed our small dogs to stay. Great hosts!

Love love loved our apartment in Carpenteria! Tropical shores is amazing and beautiful. Perfect location especially if you’re bringing pets, a few steps from dog beach and really clean and nice. The only thing I would change is a more comfortable bed.

Great location, clean, wonderfully decorated. Host was awesome. So nice to have a place dedicated to families who want to stay a few days or a week and not have to stay in a hotel. So much of Carpenteria in past years was for families wanting a week at the beach. Those places have since been converted to condos and are owner occupied or leased monthly. Not Tropic Shores. The family has a goal of providing weekly rentals to families, like it used to be. And they provide it in a fantastic way. You are literally less than a two minute walk to the waves. Wonderful place.

My family had a great stay at Elena’s place. The apartment was clean and well appointed. Elena was so responsive and kind before, during and even after our stay. We loved hanging out in the courtyard. The location cannot be beat! We’ll definitely return.

In 2021, we stopped in Carpinteria rather serendipitously on a return trip from Seattle. We loved the place, but only had a half-day and one night. Still, we liked it enough that we booked for 10 days this year and had the best time. The condo was well stocked and had plenty of space for the two of us (we both work part-time from home). We thought the beds were comfortable and we always appreciate fun artwork. The setting was wonderful, too. The courtyard made it feel different than a motel and provided easy access to the parking, washer/dryer and trash. Effortless. The shrubs are a nice touch and our dog agreed after checking every one of them. The two units next to us were rented by a group of 8 or 9 vacationers who were having a lot of fun. But… their noise was not bad at all. And, what we heard was ‘happy noise’. Not yelling or screaming but just fun laughter. I don’t get tired of that. That’s the condo… The town of Carpinteria is just too good. It is a 60s beach town that in some ways doesn’t know it’s a half a century later. It has been updated with modern grocery stores, a beach boardwalk and EV charging options, but it’s STILL 60s in other ways, i.e., the hamburger place just a few blocks away – The Spot. In Carpinteria, you can walk forever or drive somewhere in five minutes. We will return!

We really enjoyed this property. Excellent location for beach access, and the beach is terrific. Extremely clean and contemporary, comfortable apartment; beautiful building landscaping was an unexpected pleasant surprise. Carpenteria is a wonderfully laid-back small town easily accessible to more action if that's your thing. Owner was very helpful and made the stay super-easy. We loved it and can't wait to go back.
