About this property

Luxury Seaside Getaway — 2 blocks to the Beach and Funk Zone

Located in the heart of Santa Barbara, the Luxury Seaside Getaway #7 is a dreamy, Provence-inspired retreat. Adorned with hand-cast plaster, faux painting, 10-foot vaulted ceilings, and a Waterford fireplace, the space offers a serene and romantic ambiance. Unwind on sun-soaked chaise lounges after a day at the beach, and savor alfresco dining and sunset cocktails in the private courtyard.



In the elegant living space, a 36” HD TV, sleeper sofa, and French doors open onto a private courtyard, where a Waterford fireplace adds a touch of romance and warmth to the setting. The kitchen is designed for effortless home cooking with essential appliances such as a stove, Sub-Zero refrigerator, granite countertops, and custom PJ Mulligan cabinetry in a soothing sea-foam green. A private washer and dryer are also provided.



Just moments from the ocean, Stearns Wharf, the Funk Zone, and Santa Barbara’s best dining and shopping, this retreat offers the perfect balance of an enviable location and serene coastal living.



Beyond the French doors, the private courtyard awaits, thoughtfully furnished with an Italian fountain, chaise lounges, a gas grill, and a dining set. This private outdoor retreat is perfect for basking in the sun, savoring your morning coffee, or raising a glass of our complimentary champagne at sunset.



The romantic bedroom features a king-sized bed and generous closet space, while the spacious bathroom offers a luxurious dual-head walk-in shower. Beneath a stone-carved depiction of “The Maiden,” the Jacuzzi tub provides a tranquil retreat — the perfect place to relax after a day of exploring charming boutiques and local wineries in the Funk Zone.



Thoughtful touches are included to make the most of your stay: complimentary champagne to toast your arrival, bath essentials, high-end linens, a Nespresso machine stocked with pods, creams, and sugar, and reserved parking, a rare perk near the beach.



With effortless access to West beach and Santa Barbara’s most beloved attractions, the Luxury Seaside Getaway #7 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 heart of Santa Barbara. Just blocks away, the Funk Zone brings an irresistible charm — a lively 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.



Apart from the apartment, our guests have access to a reserved parking space, which is rare in such close proximity to the beach. The space also has a private encased courtyard.

Our stay was wonderful!! Our host was a great communicator, easy to reach, and so helpful too - we had a small issue with getting in initially, but she had an easy solution and took care of everything promptly and effectively. Aside from that small hiccup, everything was absolutely perfect. My husband and I and our small dog had an absolutely fantastic stay - the place was clean and beautiful, with a great private patio area and lots of sunlight - and the jacuzzi soaker tub was THE BEST!! Would definitely love to stay here again in the future, and would 100% recommend it to others!
