Perfect bungalow walking distance to downtown SB

If you're reading this and even considering staying here...STOP READING & BOOK IT! I only had about a week notice prior to having to move to SB for 5 weeks for an emergency medicine clinical rotation & I completely lucked out with finding this place! Caron & Doug were the best hosts & so accommodating to my odd emergency room hours when it came to being quiet and scheduling the cleaning fairies. They even helped me carry my luggage in when I arrived because I was on crutches. The detail and love they put into their units (I stayed in the middle unit - highly recommend) is easy to see and made me feel like I had my own home for the 5 weeks I was there. I didn't want to leave! A couple quick points people usually have questions on that were big pluses to me: - It's your own separate unit - Kitchen stocked with everything you need - Great bathroom with soaking tub - There's a shared laundry room - Very short walking distance to downtown - Parking is never an issue (you get a visitor parking pass & there is always parking on the street out front or very close by) - French doors that open into a beautiful little courtyard - Cleaning fairies come in once a week and change sheets, towels, clean up - Yummy banana bread on arrival :) This place really has it all. I loved talking with Caron & Doug when I got the chance to - they really know the area, and have plenty of great recommendations! I miss SB so much already & know when I return I will be booking with Caron & Doug!!!

Cozy Winter Weekend

The location could not be prettier or more convenient! All the convenience of being in the heart of downtown with the feeling of being secluded in your own private sanctuary. Everything was beautiful and immaculate. Such a fabulous weekend for my husband's birthday! Thanks so much Caron and Doug!

Terrific Santa Barbara Getaway

This is the second time my wife and I have stayed here. We came back a second time because we love it. It's a block away from State Street, so we ended up not driving all 4 days we stayed. The unit is appointed very well. If you like color, warmth, quaintness, and want to live for a little while in a bit of historic coastal California, then this is the place for you. I hope to return.
