A Perfect Coastal Getaway!
We loved our three-night stay! The atmosphere was peaceful, and we enjoyed great views from our room balcony. The staff was incredibly kind, and we appreciated the coffee offered in the lobby. For beach lovers, the location is fantastic! Consider requesting a room with an ocean view.

Great location across from the beach.
I was highly disappointed with the room view. The balcony I paid extra for was completely blocked by a wall, making my stay feel misleading given the photos online. I expressed my concerns to the front desk, but received no meaningful response. Parking was a hassle with only valet service and limited spaces, which felt unnecessary for the hotel’s size.

The ocean view room with a spacious balcony offered breathtaking sunrises, complemented by the generous size and excellent shower pressure. Enjoying complimentary coffee while relaxing by the heated pool added to the delightful experience. However, the chaise lounges by the pool were uncomfortable, and the restaurant’s early bar closing at 10:30 PM was a disappointment. Despite the lack of turndown service and a bit of saltiness in the pizza, the overall stay was memorable and enjoyable.

missingWrote a review on 09 Augspacious roomfriendly valetgreat breakfasthard pillowsobstructed viewearly bar closure
I loved the location of Santa Barbara Inn. Just steps from the beach, it made for easy strolls along the shore. The room was spacious and clean, with a nice mini-fridge to keep snacks cool. Valet parking was prompt and friendly, making arrivals and departures smooth. Breakfast at Convivo was a delight, with fresh granola and yogurt. The restaurant staff provided great service, but once the bar closed too early at 10:30 PM, it felt like the night ended abruptly. The pillows were a bit hard for my liking. they felt more like foam than the soft comfort of feathers. I also wish they provided more toiletries without having to ask multiple times. The balcony view was nice, yet I paid extra for a clear ocean view, only to find a stucco wall obstructing it. I felt misled in that regard. Still, the hotel's tranquility and helpful staff throughout my stay made it worthwhile. It was a relaxing getaway despite these hiccups.

The King Room with Ocean View was spacious and had a stunning wrap-around balcony. The bed was super comfy, and the bathroom was a dream with a separate jetted tub. I loved that even the bathroom had an ocean view! It felt really private and relaxing. Staff were quick to help whenever we needed anything too!
