This bright, updated 1920's bungalow is right in the heart of Santa Barbara. Situated a block and a half off State Street just minutes away from some of the best tourist attractions, restaurants, bars, breweries, music venue and museums that Santa Barbara has to offer. And just a short 10-minute drive to the closest beach. We integrated a seamless check-in/check-out process and minimal interaction for your privacy and convenience.

The bedrooms are super-comfy and bed linens are plush and cozy. One bedroom provides a king bed, and one provides a queen bed. The kitchen offers dining for 6, stainless steel appliances, dishwasher, water purifier, and is fully stocked for today's cooks and family meals. Other amenities include:
Portable Bose speaker to sync with your mobile device. Guests enjoy a brick lined patio with custom gas BBQ island, refrigerator & outdoor sink. Patio has a dining table to seat six with a fire feature in the center for warmth and ambiance. Beach chairs and towels also available for guest use. In house washer and dryer for your convenience.

We had a great 3-night stay at Casa Figueroa. The location was excellent; just a short walk over to the many restaurants on State St. and even walkable (just over a mile) to the beach. The house was clean and well-equipped. We enjoyed drinking our morning coffee on the cute front porch. The beds and couches in the house were comfortable. I would recommend Casa Figueroa to friends and family.

Super cute home in a great location! Walking distance to State Street and the Funk Zone, as well as other historic sites. It's an older home that has been updated with all that you need, from nicely remodeled bathrooms, comfortable beds, large living room/gathering space and a full kitchen. Exactly what we needed :-)
