GREAT ANNIVERSARY STAY      Tue, 06/17/25, 12:42 PM

Fabulous hotel, great staff, amazing bar appetizers, it was great. We had such a lovely time. The pool area is nice with umbrellas to provide some shade. Just across from the beach it’s a great location. We had a nice walk to the wharf and back.

We loved this hotel! It is super charming, and the staff was attentive to our needs. The location is awesome. It’s steps from the beach and a close walk to State Street, The Funk Zone, and more. I would highly recommend this property to anyone.

OUR STAY AT SANTA BARBARA INN   June 22, 2025

Out of 5, I would rate the hotel, staff and experience a 5 on a 1-5 scale. All excellent. The location is also great. The gym is super clean and has all the necessary for an away from home local gym. The jacuzzi is the perfect temperature and jets are strong and relaxing. I would like the pool/jacuzzi to stay open until 10 PM vs 9 P PM, however, it’s workable.

EXCELLENT!   Jun 20, 2025

We had a wonderful stay at the Inn. Your staff are welcoming, friendly and helpful. Most welcome after a 6 1/2 drive to get to you. Easy and helpful valet service. Your property is well maintained. Our room was spacious comfortable and very clean. House keeping team excellent.  All your staff are a great credit to the Inn.  We wouldn’t stay anywhere else in Santa Barbara.

Thank you once again.
