Apt 11: Playful 2-bed 2-bath, Steps from the beach

Beautiful newly remodeled 2nd  floor 2 bedroom 2 bathroom apartment with brand new modern furnishings and amenities throughout.  This recently renovated complex (2018) is half a block from the nicest beaches of Carpinteria and directly across from the Salt Marsh Reserve.  Super quiet location, 200 yards from the sand, and walking distance to the shops and restaurants.  This unit was recently furnished (2019) with high-quality contemporary leather and walnut furniture and contemporary art decor.  
Carpinteria is one of the last standing little beach towns in California, essentially unchanged in over 50 years.  The city is limited in growth based by its physical boarders, making the entire town only about 1 mile square.  Dozens of smaller mom and pop restaurants and cute beachy shops.  Its a town where you young children can walk or bicycle safely, visiting old favorite shops like Robitelle's Candy shop and The Spot burger joint.  Then there's the beach!  Protected by the Anacapa Island chain, Carpinteria is known as the World's Safest Beach.  Your dogs will love it too, as the beach from our street (Ash Avenue) Northward, dogs are allowed with leashes. (If allowing dogs off-leash...be aware that the police occasionally ticket off-leash dogs and the ticket is expensive.  
We're located about 10 miles from world renown Santa Barbara, and 15 miles from the city of Ventura.  Looking for. some shopping?  Camarillo Outlet Mall is located 30 miles to the South.  Northward you find dozens of wineries, Solvang, and all directions have dozens of great golf courses.  Whether you're interested in shopping, dining, kayaking, whale watching, golfing, or just relaxing on the beach, Carpinteria vacation will become a fond memory that you and your family will yearn to repeat year after year.  All of Carpinteria is easily walked in about an hour.  There is also a cute public trolly and bicycles to rent (mostly summer).  Amtrak stops many times each day for fast easy trip to Santa Barbara and points beyond.  LAX is the International airport that serves the area, about 2 hours South.  The smaller Santa Barbara Airport is about 30 minutes away.

Quaint Get Away
My friends and I just loved the town of Carpenteria and the Tropic Shores condo was the best place to enjoy all the town had to offer. We walked 3 blocks into town and 1 block to the beach. What a treasure. We all plan to return.

Just Terrific
Very clean, professionally prepared and renovated property. Very quiet despite being in a multi uniit complex. Which itslef is very nicely done and clean. Great, safe location to beach and other walking trails literally within a 2 minute walk. Elana is the best host and highly responsive! One of the best property rental decisions we have made - wish they could all follow the recipe of this one. Made for a great Thanksgiving dinner and holiday as a result!

Retreat for a retreat
Cute place with fun decor. This was a great little home-away-from-home for two friends attending a retreat in the area. A short walk to the beach. All the basics needed for comfort. Loved the lemon verbena soap and lotion and the tar removal packets. Would stay again in the future.

Fantastic value close to the beach
Very clean, cute condo just steps from the beach and the salt marsh preserve. We love how quiet it is a few blocks from the main street, yet easy walking to all Carp has to offer. We would definitely rent this unit again.

Overall was good. I made a mistake and thought it was a ground floor apt so was a little hard for us since we are older. But we did enjoy our stay. Beds and furniture could have been a little more comfortable.
