Located amid an intimate collection of exclusive vacation rentals, the 445-square-foot Santa Rosa suite is in a semi-private wing on the second floor of the historic Hitchcock House. Stroll just one block to the famed East Beach. Or, ride bikes to downtown and Sterns Wharf.

Kick back in front of the decorative electric fireplace and watch a movie on a 32" TV. Enjoy morning coffee at the coffee table. The suite also includes a desk, a mini refrigerator and freezer, a microwave, and a coffee maker. After a fun-filled day at the beach, enjoy an afternoon cookout on the shared patio, complete with a gas grill and ample table seating, as well as several benches and lounge chairs.

Your vacation rental is less than one mile from the Santa Barbara Zoo, which features 500 animals over 30 acres. Ride the Zoo Train, feed the giraffes, see live stage shows, and take a behind-the-scenes tour. Walk or pedal along the beach path 1.4 miles to Stearns Wharf, one of Santa Barbara's most popular attractions. Ride the Water Taxi, visit the Sea Center, browse the specialty shops, and dine while enjoying the best views in town! Tour the Urban Wine Trail to taste some of the finest wines produced in Santa Barbara County. It can be navigated on foot or by shuttle.

Great space for a small weekend

The space was perfect for a short weekend stay. It has close access to the beach while staying off the main road. The space was very clean and easily accessible, and had plenty of room for myself and a friend for the weekend.

Just perfect

I received communication indicating check-in, parking and everything else we needed to know daily and during our stay. We had an issue with bedding, however it was sorted out immediately. Parking was easy and convenient. The location is great. A 4 min walk to local groceries and 6 min walk to the beach!!! The room was airy and very clean. There was no ac, which is typical for Santa Barbara, but they had fans in the closet for use. The other rooms were occupied, but never had an issue with noise. Highly recommend.

A great place to stay

My 20 year old daughter and I had a great time staying here. It was perfect for us with the second bed in the alcove. The space was very clean and comfortable. It was a short walk to the beach. I appreciated the parking in back. I had read there was no AC so that wasn’t a surprise. We opened the windows in the evening to cool the room off. I would stay here again.

Could Have Been Better

Rental said it slept 4. The twin bed was broken and wobbly, and the trundle was super uncomfortable...springs in the back😒. There were only 2 wash clothes & 2 hand towels. Not really anywhere to sit to eat accept one small desk??? A 2 top table for eating would have been good. Also not much usable surfaces for setting toiletries on, or preparing food. There was NO communication through the app 🤔. I will NOT recommend this place to people.

Santa Rosa Room not East Beach Room

Great location and access to the beach. Overall, facility was charming. Many things needed attention. Phone process to get assistance is long, repetitive, frustrating and annoying. Written instructions are needed for use of TV ...i.e. did not come on, spent 45 mins unsuccessfully on phone; info on how to set to correct HDMI setting is needed. Remote worked except for on/off button; had to do from side of tv. Wifi was out for a day, but manager was able to restore. Thought jets in tub not working, but button is very hard to press. Need dowel to press deep and hard enough. Only 3 of 8 window open so can't get much of a cross breeze, but fans are available. We rented for two but only towels for one were there. Had to go through phone process to get more towels. Toaster only toasted on one side of bread so had to toast ea slice twice. We would recommend with caveat about long, not local phone process for getting assistance and if these items we've identified have been remedied. The train sounds did not bother us at all and do not run at night.

Sunlight filled lovely room by the beach

We enjoyed our stay in this sunny second story suite one block from East Beach. The king size bed was extremely comfortable, and having a lovely daybed in an alcove gave us space and a bit of privacy (though there is no door between the larger bedroom and the alcove). A vanity with mirror is set in front of one window, and a small table between well stuffed armchairs sits in front of another window, providing a nice place to gather and chat. The patio out back would be wonderful to relax in the summer; it was a bit cold for that during our stay, but we still appreciated the Spanish architecture & lush plantings. Inside the apartment, there was a coffee maker, small fridge and microwave. We were surprised that there were only two of most items (coffee mugs, forks, etc) considering that there were beds to fit four people, and we had to wash out some items for other family members to eat or drink at breakfast. We also wanted to open the windows when we arrived to enjoy some fest air, and noted that many of the windows did not have cranks to open them or the cranks were broken. Our initial arrival was challenging because, while we were given the door code for our individual suite, we never received the code to open the door to the house that led to our suite. Despite these minor inconveniences, we enjoyed our stay. We did find that the contact person at Turnkey was very responsive when we had questions, especially upon our arrival in providing the code to the outside door, and we are very grateful to them! All in all, a lovely place to stay!

Quaint and good location, but not as big as it looks

The room(s) was quaint and in a good location, but the room is not as big as it looks online. Check-in/out was easy, but no early check-in or late check-out available. Room was clean. For 4-people there should be four of all the bath towels, wash cloths, and hand towels (we were short two wash cloths and two hand towels). Location is good - can easily get to main Santa Barbara in 10 mins or less, and being super close to Milpas St it is the beginning of the Taco Trail.

Old condo near beach

It is very close to beach, a 5 mins walk. There are few eateries within 10 mins drive but wouldn’t call it a great location as it is surrounded by low cost motels and godowns. We were fine with it because it was just a sleep over for two nights during our drive to Coronado from palo algo. The bathroom tells the story of how old this place is. It hasn’t seen any upgrade in the longest time. I wouldn’t stay here if I was on vacation in Santa Barbara .

Cold, old house.

Leaking cold faucet in the bathroom; the tub turn on valve is VERRRY difficult to turn. Feels like it is breaking to get it to turn. We called the management office the night of arrival to complain about the temperature of the room (was on the cold side). We were told that a "local person" would call up back - never did - and that the local person would provide us with a space heater - which they never did. I had to find and purchase a space heater for the duration of the stay.

Great location, cute room, bathroom needs upgrade

We loved the airy, clean room. It was a quick walk to the beach, and very quiet--punctuated by the occasional train passing by, which we did not mind at all. The room was well decorated and comfy and my husband and I both worked and held Zoom meetings with no problem. I even did a few from the shared patio outside. The bathroom was a bit shabby compared to the rest of the room, but overall I would return.
