A fantastic place to stay in Santa Barbara
The Lookout at West Beach is a beautiful property, finished and decorated to a very high standard. It's location is perfect for exploring Santa Barbara and the wider area and it had everything we needed for a super vacation. It was immaculately clean when we arrived and it was very easy to deal with the property agent. Should we ever return to the area, we'd definitely stay there again.

Lookout
Lookout at West Beach was a fabulous stay. The apartment was just perfectly located near restaurants and shops, close enough to bike everywhere with the provided bikes. Everything one could possibly need was available should one want to cook or BBQ with the fully stocked kitchen. Comfy beds, fully stocked kitchen, lots of towels including beach towels. 2 minute walk to beach, 5 minutes to State Street. Well recommended - probably the best short term rental we have stayed in!

Just as advertised!
The property was perfect and just as described on VRBO. We were coming from a hotel stay and really looking forward to experiencing a neighborhood in-town feeling and this place delivered. Very close to beach and shopping and the bikes and beach gear was a nice touch. Even cooked a few meals there as the views and vibe were just a s nice as any restaurant would be. We were in Cali for a 10-day vacation from SD to SF and this was our favorite place of the week. Can't wait to come back and enjoy more of Santa Barbara.
