Captain's Cottage Newly remodeled with thoughtfully curated design, this one-bedroom plus unit of a restored triplex is a fresh, modern version of a classic California bungalow. Perfect location for a Santa Barbara rental on a quaint and quiet residential street within one block of the beach and harbour and a short walking distance to Stearns Wharf, the famous Funk Zone, and State Street. This back unit is hidden behind private garden gates resulting in a serene setting. The living room centers on friendly gatherings, with a large flat-screen television framed by custom cabinetry. Colorful art and found objects bring the nautical theme to life, adding a touch of whimsy at every turn. In the bedroom is a second television and a comfortable queen-size bed to assure a great night's sleep. The remodeled bathroom is luxurious with dual sinks and a large walk-in glass shower equipped with a safety bar. As is typical with many Santa Barbara homes, this property does not have AC. Open windows and the use of fans allow ocean breezes in to keep the house cool during hot summer months. The focal point of the galley kitchen is the vintage O'Keefe and Meritt 4-burner range with dual ovens and broiler unit. In a lyrical play on the past and present, the white enamel and shiny chrome stand in contrast to the contemporary grey quartz counters and modern appliances. Well equipped for casual meals or fine dining in a relaxed setting, the eat-in kitchen is a welcoming hub. Step down into a friendly sunroom with a daybed and French doors leading to the enclosed backyard. The daybed has a trundle bed underneath, meaning it can be transformed into a Queen-sized bed for the occasional overnight guest. Enjoying a sunrise cup of coffee, or dining under the stars here, will be the most delightful way to begin and end the day. For the active visitor, the coastal beauty is best enjoyed on foot, or hop on the two bikes provided to cruise around. How fun! Explore the surrounding neighborhoods where gentle breezes draw the sun enthusiasts to the wide stretches of sandy beach, volleyball courts, Stearns Wharf, the Harbor, and a myriad of recreation options. As part of any visit to Captain's Cottage, there are a couple of “must-do's.” Wake up early for a sweet and savory breakfast at the world-renowned local favorite, Sambo's. Try the 1957 Breakfast Sandwich or irresistible syrup-drenched Tiger Bites! Stroll through The Funk Zone, where the eclectic sub-culture of artisan shops, wine tasting rooms, award-winning micro brewpubs, and trendy eateries offer the unexpected. A visit to The MOXI - The Wolf Museum of Exploration and Innovation, makes for a fun-filled day for all ages. Finally, off-street one-car garage parking and laundry room access add convenience for every guest. In the vibrant West Beach neighborhood, Captain's Cottage is a welcoming vessel for the coastal traveler. Be swept away by temperate Santa Barbara breezes at this superlative home away from home. Captain's Cottage assures smooth sailing! ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the condo: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Limited onsite parking (max 1 space) - Onsite parking options include a garage ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Hair dryer - Shower - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room ### Entertainment - TV with cable/satellite channels ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Garden - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Concierge services ### Location highlights - Near a health/beauty spa - Near a hospital - Near a zoo - Near the marina - Near the sea ### Things to do - Birdwatching nearby - Ecotours nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Mountain climbing nearby - Rock climbing nearby - Sailing nearby - Scuba diving nearby - Snorkeling nearby - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby - Swimming nearby - Whale watching nearby - Wildlife walks nearby - Windsurfing nearby - Winery tours nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Garden - Unit size: 553 square feet ## Similar properties ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/102000000/101920000/101918900/101918856/c28b2b11.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Charming New Casita Lower Riviera, Quiet, AC, 6 blocks to State St, Pet-Friendly Laguna - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly 10 Exceptional 3 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-27&endDate=2025-12-28&selected=101918856&PinnedHotelID=101918856&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/121000000/120590000/120586900/120586828/ca2a21eb.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Seaside House The Mesa - Ocean view - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washer [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-27&endDate=2025-12-28&selected=120586828&PinnedHotelID=120586828&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/91000000/90930000/90929600/90929547/eca4d3f5.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Clean and fresh Mesa Home with Spa, Close to Beach!
