My wife and I loved our stay at this property. Very clean, quiet and fully stocked. We really enjoyed our early mornings and evening walks to discover Carpinteria and downtown area. Lovely small town. Would recommend to visit The Spot burgers and the Brass Bird Cafe. Can't wait to go back!

The unit is very clean and comfortable, with a friendly and helpful staff. The courtyard area and the front gardens are very beautiful and inviting. The location is excellent - a short walk to the beach, and directly across the road from the Carpinteria Salt Marsh, which is a very serene and picturesque place to take a casual stroll or a jog. The unit is also a short walk or bike ride to all the great shops and restaurants along Linden Ave. We also had a fun bike ride to the Carp Bluffs Nature Preserve nearby. I only wish we could have stayed longer! We are already planning our next visit.

Excellent stay: quiet and comfortable

We enjoyed our stay. The apartment was very clean, comfortable, and quiet. The location near the beach and walking paths was great. Parking on the street was easy and access to restaurants was a plus. We will definitely consider renting the apartment again next time we visit Carpinteria. Thank you!

Beautifully Decorated Apartment

I stayed 5 days at Tropical Shores and it was relaxing and restful. My apartment, #12, was beautifully decorated and just tranquil. Tropical Shores is just steps from the beach; it's just the perfect place to come to be close to the beach and still have quiet.

Great location and a lovely place

You couldn't ask for a better location. Steps from the beach and walkable to many dining options and other activities. The place itself is newly remodeled. It is extremely clean, very comfortable and quiet. Mike and Elena are wonderful hosts. They are super responsive to any questions that come up. We look forward to coming back!

The condo was updated, very clean and generously supplied. It was a 1/2 block walk to the beach! A very comfortable place to stay. Host was very clear on communications and information. I would book this location again. Easy to walk to many of the Carpinteria highlights. Note: There is no AC if you require this; primary parking is on the street with limited parking behind Condo, mainly for unloading. One set of stairs to walk up. We went "off-season" (end of April) so these items did not present a problem for us.
