Welcome to Seahorse Retreat, your private coastal haven featuring two identical oceanfront residences joined as one exceptional duplex. Perfectly situated to deliver the ultimate beach vacation, this luxury hideaway invites you to experience Carpinteria’s charming seaside vibe with the beach just steps from your private deck.
Connected seamlessly through a shared laundry room and an expansive oceanfront deck, both 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom residences are designed for families or multi-generational groups. Each light-filled living room features oversized seating with sweeping ocean views through expansive windows, while the adjacent dining area comfortably seats six for family meals. Altogether, the duplex sleeps 12 guests and offers dining seating for 12.
The main floor of each residence offers two cozy twin bedrooms, while the primary suite commands the entire upper level as a private sanctuary complete with its own balcony overlooking the ocean.

PLEASE NOTE: During the Winter months, approximately November - March, the City may erect a sand wall to protect all of the beachfront properties in Carpinteria from winter swells and storms. While it attempts to protect the properties, it does have the potential to block the view of the ocean from the lower levels of the home.
