About this property

Apt 4: Beautiful unit close to the Sand, minimum 31 day rent

Located in the beautifully renovated Tropic Shores Apartments, located steps from the best beach in Carpinteria, and directly across from the Salt Marsh Park.  This unit is located on the first floor and has been remodeled, and furnished with beautiful contemporary furnishings and amenities. Everything is new and beautiful.  
The exterior building has also been recently remodeled, with lush gardens and seating areas in the courtyard, and front gardens where you  can enjoy a glass of wine while you watch the sunset.  The entire apartment unit and private back patio areas are yours and yours alone.  

Carpinteria is a cute little beach community fit into an area approximately 1 mile square.  In that mile, "Carp" packs in at least 50 small restaurants and just as many cute little shops.  My family has been in "Carp" for over 50 years, and the town still has the same small beach resort feel that it had in the 50's and 60's.  For the beach loving visitors, "Carp" claims to be the "World's Safest Beach".  There are decent waves for plenty of safe fun, and world class surfing not far away.  The most enjoyable part for many, are the early morning or sunset walks down the beach.  Whatever your preference, I know that you'll love your Carpinteria vacation.  If you plan to hang around Carpinteria, you can literally leave your car parked the entire stay.  You can walk almost anywhere in "Carp" in about 20 minutes...30 minutes max.  I recently took a full walk of the town, from our door, through town, to the state parks and beach, and home again...and it took 50 minutes.  There's also a local trolley bus which you can ride for fun, or if your feet get a little tired.  For traveling North to Santa Barbara or Solvang, or South to Ventura or Los Angeles, you will need your car.  Amtrak also departs from the Carpinteria station, only a 10 minute walk away.

Fantastic beach vacation!
This was a perfect spot for our family with two active young kids. Lots to do from bike riding, to the beach days! The location was truly a two minute walk to the beach and the beach was clean pretty and just enough waves for our kids to boogie board for hours. There were plenty of good restaurants in Carpinteria that was serving outdoors or take out which made it easy and safe.

About the host

Hosted by Mike Krumm

Host profile image
Carpinteria has been our family's favorite vacation destination since I was a small child in the 1950's. After several years of camping at Carpinteria State Campgrounds, our parents decided to build Tropic Shores Apartments and make this our second home. A few years ago, our parents both passed, away after a full and long life, leaving Tropic Shores to the four brothers, Tom, Richard, Mike, and Jeff. Since we all feel a very special connection to Carpinteria, we decided to remodel the building from ground up, and keep it in the family for our children to enjoy.

Why they chose this property

Tropic Shores is a small building of 16 units, all located with a center courtyard of lush landscaping...some of which were planted by our father over 50 year ago. The building is very quiet and your are sure to find it easy to relax and re-energize. While we're not right on the beach, we are located so close that you can hear the waves crashing at night. 200 steps and you're on the sand. Directly across the street is the Carpinteria Salt Marsh, which is basically a bird sanctuary. You may enjoy quiet walks through the Salt Marsh watching for birds or other animals while watching the sun rise or set.

What makes this property unique

Carpinteria is one of the las remaining small beach towns found during the mid 1900's, essentially unchanged over the last 5 or 6 decades. It's a town where you may feel safe allowing your children to walk or bicycle through town on their own. Named "The World's Safest Beach" because of the protection of the Channel Islands, the surf rarely gets very large...but still large enough to enjoy the waves. When you're ready for something more exciting, there are dozens of wineries, golf courses, movie theaters, and restaurants in nearby Santa Barbara and Ventura.
