Spacious, clean lodgings on the first floor of an older home with very quiet renters upstairs. It worked great for our two-week stay in Ventura.

DeniseRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
I had a wonderful stay at Victor's place in Ventura. It is in a quiet neighborhood just steps to the beach with several restaurants and shops within walking distance - Duke's in particular was a great place with good food and local flavor. The beds were comfortable and the backyard space was a real treat. I would definitely stay here again.

2BR Beach Loft 1/2 Block to Beach and Pier

JanneliRating, 5 stars5 days ago
We absolutely loved our stay at this Airbnb! It was perfect for our family of four, including two toddlers. The house was spotless, quiet, and just the right size—plus, it was super cute and cozy. The location couldn't be better: walking distance to the beach and plenty of nearby spots, and just a short 10-minute drive to places like State Street and the Public Market. James was incredibly kind and helpful throughout our stay. I’m already recommending this place to all our friends and family, and we’ll definitely be staying here again the next time we visit Santa Barbara!

Upstairs Apartment Near UCSB

BernadetteRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We had everything we needed, plenty of space and were very comfortable during our stay. We were visiting our son at UCSB and the location couldn't have been better. The trails right outside the door were beautiful and a nice treat. We hope the place is available next time we visit!

Apt #14: Contemporary Apt 200 yards to the beach

SarahRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Beautiful well kept property. Location was great, just a 2 minute walk to the beach. It was a further walk to shops and restaurants but doable (we much preferred being closer to the beach) It was nice to have our dog with us both at the apartment and the beach. 3 beach chairs, 1 umbrella and 4 beach towels were available for use. We appreciated the cleanliness and the kitchen seemed well stocked (we didn’t cook during our visit) The only thing that would’ve made our stay better is a mattress topper on the queen bed to make it a little softer because the mattress is very firm. We highly recommend staying here!

Seaside Escape II. Walk to beach, State St., more!

Elizabeth (Betsy)Rating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Sebastian's place is immaculate, spacious and very comfortable. The entrance and exit instructions were clear, and communication was perfect. The home has lots of lovely light and windows -but also blackout curtains for those who prefer them. The location was EXCELLENT - just a few minutes from the beach and less than a ten minute walk to State Street shops, restaurants, movie theaters, etc. It was a delightful weekend!

Sunny Garden Home near the beach

MelanieRating, 5 stars2 months ago
Marty and Carey's home was a perfect place for our friends' reunion! The home is spacious, clean, comfortable, and with great decor. The kitchen was well-stocked and we loved the openness of it. The couches and beds were very comfortable for lounging and sleeping. The backyard is so beautiful and peaceful, we spent most of our free time out on the patio, and the kids loved the swings. The hot tub was a big hit with everyone, and we enjoyed being so close to the mesa bluffs and the private beach. We can't wait to come back again!

30%OFF LMT! Malibu Ocean Wave, Walk to Beach, King

Luc-OlivierRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Great host, very responsive and pro-active. Location is really great with sea view. Nice size of bedroom and living area. Nice shower. Bess provided all necessary toiletries, like shampoo, conditioner, shower gels, etc… Furniture are a bit old but it remains comfortable. Cutleries, plates and glasses could be improved. There was only one glass for wine. I was alone, do it was ok, but still… Very happy overall and I am strongly recommending Bess place. Will gladly come back.

Newly Remodeled Surf Cottage Footsteps to Ocean

TrentonRating, 5 stars1 day ago
Amazing would be an understatement. My wife, 2yr old son and I had a great time. The place was kid friendly and so close to the beach to be able to go in the morning, 2 minute walk back for nap time and head back to the beach after. Corner lot was great for easy parking and not having to hike inwards to the house with stuff. Great location and neighborhood was quiet. Would stay again and again. If I could give 10 stars I would.

🌊Silverstrand Beach 3 bd 2b 4 min to sand

JaymeRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We stayed at Karen’s place for 5 nights and loved every minute of it. The space is pristine, open, and well equipped. Super walkable, but also has everything you need for a night in. The top floor is basically an apartment unto itself - comfortable sitting area, large patio with chairs, and a huge king size bed along with a walk-in closet and bathroom. If you’re staying in Silverstrand, this is your spot - we will be back!

Surfside Zen Steps to the Beach!

JohnRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
We loved our stay. It was a wonderful spot for our family to find peace during a trying time. A few short minutes from a very lightly trafficked beach; we could not have asked for a better place to stay. We are so grateful for the accommodations!

Spring special! Condo w patio 150 steps from sand

LouiseRating, 5 stars6 days ago
Amanda’s place was exactly what we were looking for— calm, close to the beach, walkable, and comfortable. We stayed there with our son (8 months), and Amanda provided us a crib, seat, and bathtub which made our stay that much easier. Would recommend to anyone looking for a place next to the beach with their partner or small family.

Spectacular Beach Retreat with Ocean View 5minWalk

JenniferRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Shamim’s place was perfect. It’s a really nice condo in a cute neighborhood. Hueneme beach is indeed only a 5 minute walk from the condo and is a really beautiful beach. The club house indoor pool and hot tub were also a great bonus for our stay. We really appreciate the clear instructions before our arrival and the amenities were nice. The beds were comfortable and the living room with the large tv was nice for a family movie night one evening. The condo is also close to Point Magu State Park which was another highlight of our trip hiking and checking out tide pools. We had a really nice stay and a fantastic trip!

Carp Shores 312 Five O'Clock Somewhere

ChristinaRating, 5 stars2 months ago
My husband and I loved staying in this Condo on Carpinteria‘s pristine quiet beach! It is everything that it says it is and what was particularly amazing was Spencer’s Thoughtful and thorough itineraries that walks you through everything. You could see the ocean from the bedroom and it felt like you were right on the beach in the living room. You go down three flights of stairs, and there is the Beach. I am disabled, and I ran into the property manager who lives on site and she was so warm and compassionate. She saw that I was in distress and she just took me by the hand and went all the way up to the condo with me and then came back out and walk me back out to my car into my husband’s hands with the remote that we needed to enter the parking area. She showed us and actually helped us with the luggage cart which is above and beyond. Spencer Has many beautiful properties in this area, and I think I would always trust his listings to be well managed and accurate.
