We really enjoyed our stay at Tropic Shores! The apartment is fresh and updated, the kitchen and living space super functional, nice bathroom and comfy bed in the primary bedroom. Elena, the on-site property manager is very responsive and friendly. We enjoyed the short one block walk to the beach, as well as watching sunset at low tide. As our first visit to Carpinteria, we enjoyed getting to know the town and trying out the many dining options. Short drive up to Santa Barbara for a day trip, and another trip over to Ojai. This was a great home base for adventuring or staying put!
