About this property
Affordable Executive Getaway — blocks to Beach and Funk Zone
Welcome to our Affordable Executive Getaway #11, where serenity, comfort, and value come together in Santa Barbara’s most coveted location. Located in the beautiful West Beach area, you’ll be just moments from the ocean, Stearns Wharf, the harbor, and downtown’s lovely dining and boutique scene. Spend your days basking in the sun, discovering local art galleries and wineries, and exploring the vibrant Funk Zone.
Please note that this apartment is located on the second Floor (Walk up).
The inviting living space has a cozy sofa and a 42” HD TV, perfect for unwinding after a day in the sun. The fully equipped kitchen blends both functionality and style, with sleek limestone floors and modern stainless steel appliances, including a stove, oven, dishwasher, refrigerator, and microwave.
The serene king bedroom offers a peaceful retreat, with French glass doors that open to a small private terrace, providing charming foothill views. The adjoining bathroom is appointed with limestone accents, custom cabinetry, and a shower-tub combo for ultimate relaxation.
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 the beach and Santa Barbara’s most beloved attractions, the Affordable Executive Getaway #11 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 vibrant 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.
Please note that the parking spot is housed in a small carriage house and suitable for 1 compact vehicle. The dimensions of the carriage house where you would park your car are 16 and 1/2 feet in length and 8 feet and 8 inches in width. The doors have to be manually opened to the carriage house. Street parking is also accessible. Alternatively, we have other units which offer a standard parking space.
Our building is fully licensed for short-term rentals and located within the Santa Barbara Coastal Zone, where stays under 30 days are allowed. Many other listings in the city fall outside this zone and are not legally permitted to offer short-term stays—so hosts might decline your booking request to avoid violations. We, on the other hand, automatically confirm your reservation the moment you book. It’s a seamless, stress-free option for a quick coastal getaway, making us the perfect choice for your Santa Barbara stay.

This was our 4th time staying in Santa Barbara and this was the best place we have stayed. It was accurately described, comfortable, very clean, and a fantastic location. The communication was top notch. I will definitely stay here again!!
My wife and I were very happy with our stay at this property. The rooms were very clean and had everything that we could have asked for. The bed and linens were very comfortable and the location could not be beat! Thank you!
We had a great time during our stay. The listing was accurate, clean, and check in was seamless. We had a late flight and host was nice enough to offer complimentary late check out which allowed us to spend more time exploring!
This was a very comfortable place to stay, only a couple of blocks to the beach. Located in a nice, quiet neighborhood. It had everything we needed for a very pleasant weekend!
The apartment was very well appointed. We had a floor fan which was broken upon our arrival and it was quickly replaced by the on-site manager. The bed was comfortable. The apartment is too small to entertain even another couple.
Another tidy little unit in the big yellow house! Layout is a bit quirky with entry into the kitchen, a tight bathroom, and outdoor patio access from the bedroom. Eclectic furnishings and worn carpet give the impression of a college apartment, but the space is actually quite clean. The bed and sofa are very comfortable. We would have liked plumper head pillows and another six coffee cups in the cabinet to cut down on dishwashing. That said, the unit is a good choice for a short stay and we intend to return.
We wanted to take this time to say THANK YOU! We appreciated you to allow us to stay at your hidden gem nearly 3 blocks away from the ocean. Great location to all; walking distance to food, seafood restaurants, wineries and best of all breweries.
Your home was so cozy, welcoming and very clean. The only thing we would say is upgrade the TV since we were unable to stream from our phones(very difficult).
We definitely want to come back soon and will keep you on our minds when we think of going to Santa Barbara. We took a little long to write this but was reminded from the bottle of champagne you gave us, which we are drinking now. You exceeded our expectation as we celebrated our 5 year anniversary. Again well done. Stay safe from Hilary and hope all is well.
Best,
Rick and Rosemary
We have stayed in Yellow house before. Great location. Does not disappoint.

Our stay in Santa Barbara was nice. The condo was exactly what we had hoped for and gave us plenty of space to relax after being on the road for a couple of weeks. It was within walking distance to State Street and the beach.
As discribed, beautiful I could see myself living there. 3 blocks from the beach.

Nice accomodation - clean and good loccation
We had a great time. The Getaway is clean and very well equipped. Sure beats the local hotel rooms and we picked it because of the price and were happily surprised when arriving that it was as advertised and even better. The bed is so comfortable too.
Accommodations were lovely. Location was great. One of our party members thoroughly enjoyed the use of the balcony each morning for quiet tea time. Thank you.
