Clean & comfortable beds and an amazing location. We’ve stayed here twice. It’s a reliable spot that could use some tlc and a few more kitchen items / repairs but the location makes it perfect.
We hv stayed here 2x family of six teens and young adult family. We will be back! Great location!

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
The host was extremely responsive. The home itself was over 100 years old and had all the problems that come with age: no heat in one of two bedrooms and the bathroom; no working outlets in the bathroom; bad smell; ant infestation. The shower had a single, half-panel of glass so you were basically out in the open and without heat, it was freezing.
Very spacious and clean dog-friendly house in perfect location. Very close to shops, restaurants, grocery store, and most importantly the beach!

Wonderful experience!
We absolutely love staying in the Castro house in the heart of Carpinteria! We love the spacious layout of this historic vacation rental! Everything was well appointed, the beds were so comfortable. We had everything we needed in the kitchen. to cook meals and loved the 10 minute walk to the beach. Jana was very responsive with messaging and very sweet as well! We look forward to coming back soon. I highly recommend staying at the Castro house! Warmly, Arabella
Just a wonderful place to stay in Carpinteria. Really can't beat the location, comfort, space, backyard, parking, etc. Right by the main streets of the city, yet quiet and charming.

Charming place!
Loved this quality home of character! Beautiful throughout with comfortable beds, enjoyable private hot tub, nice kitchen, good and helpful communication and with every other amenity we needed. Also, location wise you can easily walk anywhere in this quaint town. With such lovely old time detail, they just don't build homes like this anymore.
Enjoyed our stay for our daughter’s graduation. Loved being able to walk to restaurants and the beach. The house is well located and we liked the private back patio area. One small bathroom is not ideal but beds were comfy and kitchen and living space were good!
Communication was excellent! The house was very clean, and very close to restaurants and shopping. Like others have said the bathroom is small, and it is an interesting layout where you have to walk through one of the bedrooms to get to main areas from the back bedroom.Beds were comfortable but the sofa sleeper mattress is a bit thin. Although it’s close to a gas station the home was surprisingly quiet and very peaceful. We hope to stay here again.
Beautiful and spacious. Great location, close to shops and restaurants. Comfortable beds and overall quite cozy. Accurately described. We enjoyed our stay!
This has become one of our favorite Carp rental spots...
My family and I have probably come to Carp for 10 or 12 short stays over the years, and this rental location is one of our very favorites. This was the third time we've rented from the Castro House, and I imagine we'll probably keep doing it. Super cute, comfortable, clean, cozy... all the good c's!
The apartment was clean and welcoming! We enjoyed being so close to shops and restaurants, as well as walking distance to the beach.
Our pups also loved being able to vacation with us!!!

Beautiful place, centrally located
This rental is right in the middle of Carpinteria. Very clean, comfortable beds. We went for AvoCabo Festival and could listen to the bands from our back deck. Short walk to the beautiful beach.
Just a wonderful place to stay to really get the feel of Carpineria. Close to everything. Don't miss Little Dom's and Carp Kitchen and Lucky Lama Coffee, all nearby
