We enjoyed our stay at the Santa Barbara beach house. The rooms are spacious and it is well equipped. I miss the comfy bed already. I loved the craftsman character that has been retained in the house. The host was very informative and quick to respond to any questions.
Beautiful house in convenient location. We didnât need to use our car as everything is walkable. Parking is a bit of an issue as there is no private parking and there are restrictions for on-street parking at weekends and Wednesday mornings. The house is well equipped with everything you could need.
Perfect location & wonderful building. Great host!
We had a wonderful stay at 118 Chapala Garden. Sandy was great with communication and the place was absolutely amazing ... especially having access to the beautiful rooftop garden. Location was perfect ... close to everything!
My brother lives here in Santa Barbara and we always stay at Chapala Gardens when we visit him. Clean, spare unit with plenty of room and all the amenities. We love sitting on the spacious porch, enjoying the California sun.
Great location, Great host. Great time. Stayed for 3 weeks, we returned our rental car after a couple days and walked or biked for 2 weeks. One block from the train station, one block to beach, three blocks to center of town. Wonderful restaurants and bars within easy walking distances. We had a great time exploring Santa Barbara.
We loved our stay at Chapala Gardens. The location is perfectâŠclose walk to the beach or State street. The accommodations were clean and as advertised. The rooftop garden stole the show. My wife and I ended up fixing dinner at home on 3 of our five nights because the rooftop was the best location in town. We also ate breakfast up there each morning. Sandy was an excellent host.
Great family celebration and stay in Santa Barbara!
Excellent location and units in Santa Barbara! Sandy (host) was very communicative and helpful! We had a family dinner on the rooftop patio (our family had rented all three units) and Sandy offered tables, chairs, and other help to make it a great experience. The unit is very close to the beach and close to town center where some amazing restaurants and shops are.
We enjoyed our stay at Chapala Gardens. The weekend was unseasonably rainy and cold, so plans for biking and hiking shifted to local theater and use of the rain gear we smartly brought!.
Gave us a good excuse to hunker down and enjoy the two fireplaces and covered porch. The location (and rental car) afforded us to either walk or to drive to our targeted activities.
Quality and comfort - - - all the comforts of "home away from home". Our parade was definitely not rained on, just rerouted!
Wonderful place with charm, walk to beach, Jeannine's, Biergarten, Santa Mezcal, Brophy Bros! Short drive to Jaffurs for wine tasting and Barbareno for dinner. All great food and experience. Relaxing on porch watching dog walkers. Large bathroom and bedroom, 2 closets made it easy accommodations. Thank you!
location was fantastic! close to water, Funk Zone and State Street. While we had a car... didn't need it or use it except for day trips. Beach chairs and towels very useful. Rooftop garden is lovely and while shared with other 2 units, was very private. Ability to grab some salad greens and herbs was a real bonus! We will definitely be back!
A short block to the beach, restaurants, Stearns Wharf and the Harbor, plus a wonderful rooftop garden, made it the perfect, charming place to stay. The hosts are available and amiable which makes it even nicer.
This apartment was very comfortable and pleasant. Super close to most of Santa Barbaraâs desired activities. I recommend it highly. Sandy, the host, was most helpful and available.
Walkable to everything - the harbor, the beach, the funk zone, State St., the train station, ect. The unit was very spacious and access to the rooftop garden was a cool perk!
We enjoyed Sandyâs property and the location was perfect for our family. We biked or walked everywhere and the kids loved being so close to everything. Itâs a charming place and the rooftop garden is very cool. Sandy was a great host.
Sandyâs place was amazing. He is a great host and property is really nice. Location is unbelievable. Walking distance to all of the highlights Santa Barbara has to offer. State street, Funk Zone, Sterns Warf, The marina, all next door to you. Sandyâs place was really nice and clean, and he was so nice to make sure are check in process was easy and that we were comfortable. Really appreciate everything. I will most definitely stay here again if Iâm in the Santa Barbara area.
I took the train to Santa Barbara because my toddler is really into trains right now. We loved that the place was close to the train station, Beach, museum and restaurants. Beautiful roof top deck to eat, place had exactly what we needed. Thanks Sandy
This is a great home for a getaway with family. We were able to have dinner and enjoy the evening. Just like being at home. So close to the beach and entertainment. We walked everywhere, so didn't rent a car. Lyft was cheaper than uber if we needed a ride. All the comfort of home. Our only issue was the deep tub. Getting into it at our age was a bit of a challenge. Would stay again without hesitation.
Kitchen could have better cooking accommodations dishes , cups , glasses
Bath tub height hard to get in and out for seniors
Rooftop hydroponic garden amazing and we could pick fresh and delicious salad greens every day
Bed very comfortable
