Great stay

Carp is the cutest town. We will definitely be back. The condo is pretty small and the bed wasn’t the best, but otherwise it’s great for 2 people and the location was perfect. We would stay here again.

Carpenteria

Other than having major difficulty opening the master key lock on the door, and the television not working, the rest of the stay was very nice. It’s a beautifully remodeled condo. The owner was very responsive to our issues and we appreciated his help.

Quick walk to the beach

This was a clean and cozy condo for our stay in Carpenteria. The beach was close and we were able to get around to most places by walking. It would have been helpful to have more clear instructions on the TV and info about the laundry room location, but all in all this was a nice place to stay.

Loved our Condo stay in Carpinteria!

This condo was perfect for our needs! We have tent camped at campground at Carpinteria for 35 yrs, but decided to get a condo this yr for the two of us. The location was perfect and close to campground so we could hang out with our kids and grandkids easily. The condo was so comfortable and we loved how well it was decorated. It had everything we needed! We will try to rent this condo in the future!!

Great location!

Great stay one block from the beach and walking distance to all the shopping and testy in downtown Carp. Bed was very comfortable. I recommend sleeping with white noise as the walls to the building are thin and you can hear people coming and going. Also, there is no full length mirror😬

Cozy , comfortable , compact .

Have grown rather fond of this unit having been here for 7 nights . Perfect for my husband and me . Well equipped kitchen , comfortable seating in the living / kitchen area , rather small but adequate bathroom with plenty of hot water for showers , bed mattress too soft for our liking . Quiet building , great location . Owners have gone a nice job of updating and furnishing .

Good location place needs updated

First the good: Location was great Well Stocked (especially TP) Had boogie boards and beach chairs The not so good: Unit needs a deep cleaning, floors/walls Bed was way too soft and taco-y Couch was SO squeaky Unit could use updating (blinds, furnishings, linens/towels, basically everything) Bikes were very rusty - wouldn’t try it. Pretty good communication and quiet place near the beach. Although the beaches in Santa Barbara are way nicer. Would probably stay there next time.

Bed and TV

The space was good for 2 adults, maximum. The bed was much too soft. We could not get the TV to work; sometimes it came on spontaneously; fortunately, though, not in the middle of the night. Quiet and clean. Very nice.

Bathroom and bed

Well it was a great place and location. This place is not suited for larger or shall I say fluffy people. The toilet area was way too tight and the bed was too soft for our liking. I felt that the couch was going to break. I thought the legs were going to come out from under it. Price range was great but will be booking another place for next year.

A Block From Heaven

4-1/2 STARS. My 64 year old eyes required a flashlight to enter the lock box code due to the dimly lit hallway. Deadbolt key easy to copy and no lock-chain on door. Small studio. Comfortable bed with soft-mattress. Cramped bathroom. Fast WiFi at 314Mbps. Needs a work light over the kitchen sink (no dishwasher). Filthy banister on the communal stairway. Spa wasn't very hot. AND ONE BLOCK FROM A GREAT BEACH AND PARK!
