Spend your days enjoying the beach, visiting local art galleries and wineries, and exploring the Funk Zone.



Please note that this unit is for 1 guest and is located on the second floor (Walk-up).



During your stay, thoughtful touches are included to make the most of your Santa Barbara getaway: complimentary champagne to toast your arrival, bath essentials, high-end linens, and a Nespresso machine complete with pods, creams and sugars.

Had everything I needed in a great location, just few blocks from the beach and State St. I didn't know how to operate the AC, but literally had everything I needed for my stay. Thanks again for letting me stay here.

Would stay again, but had a small mishap

When I arrived at the studio apartment it appeared the unit was not cleaned as there was trash around the unit and the bed was unmade. I contacted the host who immediately sent cleaners to the unit and I was offered a free upgrade for a few days as well. Overall I appreciated the prompt communication and effort that was made to correct the situation, and I would stay at this property again as the units themselves were nice and the location was great.

Great location walking distance from everything in town. Easy to get in and out of and everything needed in this studio accommodation. The bed was comfortable a bit on the small size for me but I am a very tall man.

Great West Beach Spot

Room was small but the thoughtful layout meant that the space felt much bigger than the square footage would indicate. The studio was well appointed and had everything one would need for even an extended stay. Fantastic location for folks interested in beaches, however be prepared for a bit if a walk to State St and downtown. Only downside it that the gorgeous older building does Not have great sound proofing and transferred sound from other units can be readily heard even at normal speaking voices or activity.

Really quiet, clean and convenient

I travel to Santa Barbara for work regularly and prefer a place with a kitchen over a standard hotel. I've stayed in a few units at the 201 Bath building and they've all been clean, quiet and consistent, which is what I'm looking for. I'd recommend this place to anyone looking for an easy walk to the beach and a quiet neighborhood.

What a wonderful place! I cannot say enough good things about this property- it was perfectly located two blocks from the harbor, extremely clean, beautifully updated, functional and well equipped space, very secure and safe building, lovely property, excellent value, well managed, quiet, parking within a block was not an issue even on the weekend… it was perfect. This place well exceeded my expectations and I was sad to leave! I’ll be back.

Perfectly fine

The studio apartment was just fine. I had everything I needed. The walk to the beach and to State Street was easy. There was a small outdoor place to sit, but it was not inviting. I wish I had rented one of the units that had private outdoor seating.

I absolutely loved staying here. The only downside is because it’s an old building the noise travels easily , if you’re not ok with a little noise this isn’t for you. The kitchen is stocked with common items and utensils too!will stay here again !

Gorgeous Studio, Average Long-term Stay

Stayed in this studio as a night shift travel nurse. It had just been renovated to it's beautiful new design, has a great kitchen, and is in an amazing location. The downsides is that it is very loud- you can hear the goings-on of all the other people staying in the building. I got 2 noise complaints on me even though I wasn't even in the studio/taking a nap at the time. You can also hear the train every time is goes through the station. There is no storage for long-term stays such as a dresser or drawers of any kind although there is a nice large closet. And you have to pay for laundry as it's not in the unit itself. Overall, the location and beautifully renovated space made it worth it, but I wish I had known about these things as a long-term stay!
