Such a cute place. We stayed upstairs and the apartment up there is adorable. Beautifully furnished. We didn’t really use the kitchen, but it seemed to have pretty much everything you could’ve want. Bathroom is great, now I want to redecorate mine. Check-in was super easy. Easily walkable to the cute little downtown. A little bit far to walk to the beach, but we did it anyway, and it was fine.. Would definitely stay here again.

Great place
The place is centrally located and easy to get around town. The upstairs unit is cozy but not ideal for 6’5 or taller like myself. Master bed was really comfortable but the two sofa beds are extremely uncomfortable. It is also located behind a gas station which we found to be busy and somewhat loud weekday mornings. Probably not an issue for most but being that we live in the country we felt it. Overall the place was fine and Served it’s purpose.

Perfect location!
Carpinteria is a very cute town, and this location was steps away from a small little main street, with many cute shops and restaurants. The walk to the beach was only ~10 min, and it was very quiet and clean. The house was exactly as pictured, and it was well-stocked with linens, etc. Very clean and neat. Would definitely go back.

Lovely Experience
Absolutely charming and enjoyable experience. Perfectly located and walking distance to everything (shops, restaurants, gas, Smart & Final, and beach). The unit had everything needed, very clean and beautifully decorated and spacious. Jena was a wonderful host and available as needed. She has a darling shop on the first floor filled with treasures. Everything was lovely!

Great long weekend getaway!
Had to reschedule twice due to family circumstances but was able to do so easily, and this trip was worth the wait. Short walk to the beach and local food and coffee. Fabulous restaurants between Carpenteria and Santa Barbara! Wine/brew and live music and just a great time connecting with family.

Carpinteria is our new favorite place to visit. And the Castro house was a great place to stay. Strategically located close enough to town to walk to anything you needed as well as to the beach. We would definitely stay there again. And so should you!

Very charming place
Overall we loved the Castro house. It is a very old house (1908?), with the charm and quirks that accompany homes of this era. Some parts have been remodeled, such as the kitchen and bathroom. Being upstairs, it can get pretty warm though, even on days in the 60s. Many windows do not open because the wood is old, and swells, and most windows do not have screens. The owner, Jana, who was super friendly and helpful, said they are planning a remodel. The location is excellent. A block from downtown, and about a mile walk to beach.

Smell
When we opened the door upon arrival we were shocked by how old/musty the place smelled, but since we had prepaid we opened all of the windows that we could and kept them open during our stay which meant that all street noise came right in. Also, if you are going to have an event on the property during a stay you might let the renter know when they book so that they can decide if they do want to stay there.
