Located just one block from the golden shores of beautiful East Beach, the charming Gallaher Suite studio offers the ultimate location for a coastal getaway. Full of natural light, this stylish gem is conveniently located on the ground floor of an exclusive collection of vacation rentals. Spend the day on the beach, or drive minutes to a host of attractions, including world-class wineries, Stearns Wharf, the Santa Barbara Bowl, and the boutiques and restaurants in nearby downtown.

Full of natural light, the studio includes a cushioned wicker chair and a 31-inch TV. After a day of adventure, curl up in a queen bed adorned with crisp white linens. Fresh and bright, the attached bathroom is configured with a tub/shower combination. The unit includes a mini-refrigerator and freezer, microwave, and coffee maker. Extra perks include complimentary WiFi and cable TV. Sip coffee at a quiet sitting area outside your rental, offering two chairs and a table to perch drinks. You'll also have access to a secluded communal area. This outdoor space features two dining tables, benches, lounge chairs, and a barbecue grill for afternoon cookouts.

With East Beach one block away, you're just a block from the waterfront shuttle and an oceanside bike path along the beachfront. Soak up the laid-back vibe in downtown Santa Barbara (a 5-minute drive), and head the same distance to Stearns Wharf for shopping, dining, fishing, or to simply enjoy the salty breezes and wonderful ocean views. Walk 10 minutes for tasting sessions at Sanguis Winery, while local shops and eateries are even closer.

Where is the cushioned wicker chair described in the property description? For us, an older couple (of 73 and 92) this chair was an important feature. The only chair for the two of us is one of hard hard plastic.A lesser point but worth noting: this is a very small space. Every inch is needed for personal items if stay is more than a night. Yet much space is taken by nicknacks that have to be relocated. Finding space for them is a challenge. Suggestion: stick with wall decor. Special note: The fake tree intrudes into the tiny closet thing and the long-accumulated dust on its many leaves (impossible to individually clean) gets on our clothes. It can go.

Cute room near East Beach

This property was clean and the bed was comfy. We were able to walk to East Beach and Stearns Warf easily. About a mile. We found the property quiet and enjoyed sleeping in a bit and our morning coffee before setting out for the day. Would stay again.

Simple, clean, great location - but there are some cons

Pros: location! Cons: bed, small room, noise The location is great - it really is only a couple blocks to the beach. The walk to the pier is about 1.5 miles, so a bit of a trek, but well worth it. On the downside, the room is in an old house, so it does suffer from that a bit. You have upstairs neighbors who you can hear walking around. There is no heater in the room, which was a bit unexpected. The bed was ok, but not very comfortable. The room is small, and there’s really nowhere to open up your suitcase and leave it out.

Solo Get Away

Charming studio in a great location! Loved that I could walk or bike to all my favorite spots. It was very helpful that the property description was so thorough and provided “what to expect” details since the rental is part of multiple rentals within an old home.

Location 10 room 5

The location was great but the room was way smaller than it appeared. The bathroom door didn’t close, the tub faucet to shower didn’t work correctly and none of the appliances could reach an outlet without putting them on the floor. Some improvements should be made here.

Room Ok, Bathroom Gross

Room okay but we could hear people walking upstairs and this woke us up in the morning. The toilet ran constantly, the shower drain was broken so we couldn’t use it. We saw pubic hair in jets of bathtub. Vanity was outdated and cracked.
