About this property

Contemporary Studio 200 yards to the sand & waves

This beautiful, newly remodeled little studio apartment is perfect for a couple looking to get away to the beach and have a cozy time together.  The unit has a private patio with table and chairs.  Located 200 yards from the nicest beach in Carpinteria, directly across from the Salt Marsh bird sanctuary, and walking distance to the town of Carpinteria.  This unit has a small kitchenette, so you can prepare small meals.  There's no oven or stove, and the kitchen is small, so it's not designed for preparing elaborate meals.  There is a professional toaster oven, microwave, large electric griddle, and coffee maker, so you can prepare a nice breakfast, sandwiches, microwave meals, and simple meals.  There's a large screen t.v., with lots of movie channels, and excellent internet wifi.  The unit is approximately 260 square feet, so it is best suited for 1 or 2 people.  
The building has a community BBQ with a large table set in our beautiful gardens.  There are also several garden sitting areas around the property.   
Carpinteria is a old-fashion little beach town rarely found anymore.  The main town is around 1 mile square and can be walked in less than an hour.  There are dozens and dozens of small local restaurants, and lots of local novelty shops.  It's the kind of town where you'll feel safe walking around at night.  The town is largely unchanged for the last 60  years, where my husband and his brother walked all around town, unsupervised,  when they were only 6 or 7 years old.  Santa Barbara and Ventura are 15-20 minutes away, so you have lots of large restaurants and things to do just a short drive away.  The town is easily walkable and you'll see tons of people enjoying riding their bicycles all around town.  There's also a local trolly that drives around town all day long and costs 50 cents to ride.  It's also convenient to drive your car when you prefer not to walk.  There is also an Amtrak depot about 3 blocks from the apartment, making it possible to visit Carpinteria without a car.

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, after enjoying a long life, our parents both passed away, 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.

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.
