About this property

Charming 229-sq-ft studio near Stearns Wharf & 1 block to famed East Beach

Primary Renter Must be 25 Years of Age to Rent (Proof of Age Required)

Located just one block from the golden shores of beautiful East Beach, the charming Gallaher Suite studio offers the ultimate location for a coastal getaway. Full of natural light, this stylish gem is conveniently located on the ground floor of an exclusive collection of vacation rentals.

Spend the day on the beach, or drive minutes to a host of attractions, including world-class wineries, Stearns Wharf, the Santa Barbara Bowl, and the boutiques and restaurants in nearby downtown. Full of natural light, the studio includes a cushioned wicker chair and a 31-inch TV.

After a day of adventure, curl up in a queen bed adorned with crisp white linens. Fresh and bright, the attached bathroom is configured with a tub/shower combination. The unit includes a mini-refrigerator and freezer, microwave, and coffee maker. Extra perks include complimentary WiFi and cable TV. Sip coffee at a quiet sitting area outside your rental, offering two chairs and a table to perch drinks. You'll also have access to a secluded communal area.

This outdoor space features two dining tables, benches, lounge chairs, and a barbecue grill for afternoon cookouts.

With East Beach one block away, you're just a block from the waterfront shuttle and an oceanside bike path along the beachfront. Soak up the laid-back vibe in downtown Santa Barbara (a 5-minute drive), and head the same distance to Stearns Wharf for shopping, dining, fishing, or to simply enjoy the salty breezes and wonderful ocean views. Walk 10 minutes for tasting sessions at Sanguis Winery, while local shops and eateries are even closer.

THINGS TO KNOW This 229-square-foot studio is part of an older home; you may hear noises from adjacent units.

Although this unit is not equipped with air conditioning, it is rarely needed with the mild summer temperatures at the beach. This prime beachside locale is a half a block from the Amtrak rails and near the 101 freeway, and passing trains may occasionally be heard. Earplugs are provided if you are sensitive to noise while sleeping.

Liked: Location
Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy
Starting with communication. Never received information on how to check in, where to park, or how to access the unit. Had to call upon arrival while standing on the street in the dark.Next, we were told there was accessible kitchen by one customer service rep (she sent written confirmation), then we were told actually we did not - despite the room coming with a new sponge and dish soap...The unit itself was so dirty that our feet turned black from walking around inside. Mold growing in the shower, and a rug so caked with grime it was black.Very disappoint. Do not recommend staying at all.
