About this property

Surf Station E | 1BR Walk to Beach & Funk Zone

Summary:

Surf Station E is a fully renovated 1-bedroom tucked into a tropical courtyard in West Beach, Santa Barbara — steps from the sand and a short walk to Stearns Wharf and the Funk Zone’s tasting rooms. A king bed plus a queen sofa bed sleep up to 4 — the pull-out is great for kids. Full kitchen with Nespresso, hotel-grade linens on a brand-new mattress, and fast WiFi. Free private parking. Shared tropical courtyard with BBQ. Self check-in. Pets welcome.



The Space:

The building:

Surf Station is a small collection of private apartments in Santa Barbara’s West Beach neighborhood, managed by Maza Hospitality. Unit E is entirely your own — you won’t share a hallway, kitchen, or bath.



Sleeping:

Bedroom: king bed

Living room: queen sofa bed (pull-out)

Sleeps up to 4 — the pull-out is great for kids. All beds made up with hotel-grade linens; the bedroom mattress is brand new.



The space:

A fully renovated 1-bedroom tucked into a tropical courtyard, steps from the beach. Full living room, fast WiFi throughout, and a bathroom stocked with Public Goods products.



Kitchen:

Full kitchen, stocked for real cooking — cookware, bakeware, knives, utensils, plates, glassware, coffee and wine glasses. Nespresso machine with a starter set of pods, plus a kettle. Dishwasher, full-size fridge, oven, and stovetop. Salt, pepper, oil, and basic pantry staples on hand.



Shared courtyard:

Gas BBQ, picnic table, fountain, and overhead string lights, shared with the other Surf Station apartments.



Parking:

One free private parking spot is included — a convenience guests consistently call out, since street parking in West Beach is genuinely difficult.



Getting around:

Funk Zone tasting rooms and restaurants: ~5 min walk

West Beach and Stearns Wharf: ~10 min walk

Downtown / State Street: ~10 min walk

Amtrak Santa Barbara station: directly across the street. Once you’ve parked, you can leave the car for the weekend.



Check-in:

Self check-in by smart lock, after 4:00 PM. Checkout by 11:00 AM. We send door codes and directions on the day of arrival.



Pre-check-in:

After booking, we ask you to complete a quick pre check-in: a photo ID upload and a $1 security deposit hold. It takes about two minutes.



Good to know:

This is a lively, downtown-adjacent neighborhood. You’ll hear some city sound, including the occasional train — if you’re a light sleeper, bring earplugs. Please note: the units come with fans but do not have air conditioning. There are exterior security cameras on the property. None are inside the unit. Pets are welcome — there is a $75 pet fee for the stay. Maximum 4 guests. No parties or events.



Us:

Maza Hospitality manages a small portfolio of properties across Santa Barbara and the Central Coast. Someone is reachable within the hour, every day.



The Neighborhood:

This listing is located in Santa Barbara's West Beach neighborhood. One of the most walkable and desirable areas of Santa Barbara, you are just a few block walk from West Beach, Stearn's Wharf, and right on the edge of the hippest area of Santa Barbara, the Funk Zone. The property is also conveniently located right across from the Train Station, making it extremely convenient for utilizing public transportation.



Getting Around:

The location is great for walking and there is ample street parking. We also have a parking lot in the building.
