Charming and cozy little house in the heart of downtown Santa Barbara built in 1915\. The rooms are small (Think Parisian Hotel for a size comparison) but well-appointed and quaint. You'll find a place to hang your hat, charge your phone, rest your fee, set your glass and simply relax. Great for guests who want to experience a genuine downtown local experience. A few blocks from the Saturday Farmer's Market. Two blocks east of State Street and Joe's Cafe (highly recommended), French Press Coffee, theaters, shopping... The back yard is the sanctuary and my favorite place to take afternoon naps under the wisteria. Because the house is in the middle of downtown, it is not as quiet as a country mouse. If you want 100% quiet, you will not want to stay here. That being said, I haven't lived in this neighborhood for many years and I have rarely been bothered by the traffic. But the house IS located on a city street and there ARE cars on this street. The parking spot in my driveway is very small. Guests have fit a Land Rover in and I fit my Tahoe in (very snugly). If you are uncomfortable backing into a tight parking space, you can park overnight on the street. There is a City lot two blocks away for longer, overnight parking for a small fee. The house is not air-conditioned. There are a few days out of the year when one might want air-conditioning, but I provide fans for the rooms and the dutch door in the front and french door in the back, as well as a few windows provide cross-ventilation on those few hot days. If you need air-conditioning, you may not want to stay here. My travels around the world have taken me to some incredible hotels and I owned and operated a yacht charter business for 12 years (as Chef, Steward, First Mate and Cruise Director), taking guests to the from the Channel Islands in five star luxury so attention to comfort is of upmost importance to me. The house is equipped with a full kitchen, quality linens, towels, comfortable rugs and furnishings, and if you've forgotten your toothbrush, razor, sunscreen, hair dryer, or shaving cream, you don't have to walk the (one block) down the street to the store. There are bicycles (and helmuts/locks) for your use, a BBQ for backyard entertaining, a Bose portable music system that connects to your music library so you can have your music in any room, a game table for an impromptu chess, backgammon, or card game, and a new TV with Netflix and Wi Fi. A few times per year, my neighbor has a party in his backyard. I never know when it's going to happen. Although they have generally been good about abiding by the noise curfew of 10 pm, I cannot guarantee that there would be some noise coming from the backyard at some point throughout the year. If that happens, a call to me and me stopping by to speak to them generally brings the noise level down! They are very respectful. They just like to have fun sometimes. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach towels ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee grinder - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided - Sofa bed ### Bathroom - 1.5 bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room ### Entertainment - Books - DVD player - Games - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Fenced yard - Firepit - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk - Desk chair ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - 2 pets total ### Suitability/Accessibility - No elevator - Smoking not allowed - Note from host: Smoking allowed only in the backyard ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In the city center - Near a health/beauty spa - Near a hospital - Near a zoo - Near an outlet shopping mall - Near the marina - Near the sea ### Things to do - Bicycles - Tennis - Basketball nearby - Birdwatching nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Ice skating nearby - Jet skiing nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Mountain biking 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 - Bicycles - Unit size: 680 square feet ## Similar properties ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/94000000/93850000/93841000/93840996/822c1e78.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The 3 Dux Lower State - Washer - Dryer - Parking included - Free WiFi 9.4 Exceptional 10 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-01&endDate=2026-03-02&selected=93840996&PinnedHotelID=93840996&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![On the beach, sun loungers, beach towels](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/28000000/27140000/27130600/27130547/cca3651b.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Luxury Seaside Getaway — 2 blocks to the Beach and Funk Zone Santa Barbara Beach - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet friendly 9.8 Exceptional 158 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-01&endDate=2026-03-02&selected=27130547&PinnedHotelID=27130547&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/34000000/33510000/33507800/33507747/2a7fb85e.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Chapala Gardens Historic West Beach 1BR - #2 Santa Barbara Beach - Ocean view - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 9.4 Exceptional 105 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-01&endDate=2026-03-02&selected=33507747&PinnedHotelID=33507747&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/107000000/106030000/106028600/106028539/a4b50431.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Casa De La Vina Studio 4 Santa Barbara - Kitchen - Pet friendly - Air conditioning - Parking available 10 Exceptional 17 reviews CA $220 CA $396 total includes taxes & fees Feb 25 - Feb 26 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-25&endDate=2026-02-26&selected=106028539&PinnedHotelID=106028539&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Smart TV, video games, stereo, offices](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/110000000/109730000/109726900/109726839/fea60c53.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Library Suite – The Marlowe Seaside Inn: Spacious one-bedroom suite in Santa Barbara featuring a sunny writing sunroom, private balcony, and vintage decor.

What a special treat it was for us to stay in this gem! ##### thomasina K. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sharlotte O.

My now husband and I stayed here for our wedding weekend and it was absolutely perfect. We loved using the fire pit in the back, and all the wisteria in the front and back yards were perfect for my getting ready pictures. We will definitely be back! ##### Sharlotte O.

Accurately depicted in photos This is a very nice small house. It is well maintained and was very clean upon check-in. The owner/manager Dawn communicated well and checked in with us. We really enjoyed the fire pit in the backyard! The pictures accurately depicted what you are getting. Would stay here again. ##### Kyle A.

I cannot recommend Dawn and this rental enough. She’s made the entire process a breeze with clear and concise communications. The rental was so beautifully decorated, and you can just tell Dawn has put in a lot of thoughts to ensure your stay is of utmost comfort and convenience. My family can’t wait to revisit this place when we’re back in town again! ##### Heidi M. Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jenny M.

The house was very homey and located close to so many great restaurants, coffee shops and stores! All four of us enjoyed the decor and hanging out it the sitting/living room each morning and night. Dawn is so nice and welcoming! She was very responsive, easy to get a hold of and very helpful! We really enjoyed our stay! ##### Jenny M.

My family of three had an absolutely amazing time at dawns place. It was immaculate and the details in all the rooms weee stunning. The outdoor space and bicycles just made the trip even better. We biked down to the beach and state trees which was a block away. If you’re looking book it right away! ##### Marisa K.
