Stay anywhere else. Stay away.....Terrible service by an arrogant untrained staff. Rooms were dirty and furniture uncomfortable. Lots of construction noise with no warning. Claim to a "beach" location are greatly exaggerated.

Best kept secret in Santa Barbara. Friendly, knowledgeable and wonderful staff.

The room we had was more spacious than in hotels costing twice as much.

Panoramic views and a functional lanai made our stay mostly pleasurable.

The continental breakfast in the lobby was not our favorite, but it was on the house: no complaint!

Highly recommended: we will return.

What a nice place. I loved it. Get an ocean view room. It is little noisy, becouse the pool is also on ocean view site, so you can hear the kids, but after 9 it is very nice and there is no one in the pool. Let me tell you the bad things first: the shower had a wierd smell, but if you run water for few min before you take shower you'll be fine, also our room did not had bathtub. It was ok for me but i know my Bf was a little unhappy. This is it. Everything else is great. Our room was very nice, the view was perfect. We would hear the ocean every nite, and the weather was just beautiful. If you want to take a swim just you and your friend after hourse, just ask the front desk and they will do it for you. The breakfast was ok, nothing too speacial, but you are eating in one of the best places, and the view is perfect. Everything is very close to hotel. We would take walks every morning and nite on the beach. It is trully a good places to relax and enjoy your self. Oh by the way it is on the pricy side, but we got a very good deal on expedia just $90 a nite. ALso you can go to kayt, good prices there too.
