This was a beautiful 2 bed, 2 bathroom fully equipped apartment. The apartment had everything you needed for a comfortable stay and both rooms and bathrooms were the same so no problem choosing. Only a few minutes walk into the heart of Santa Barbara and loads of great restaurants and shops nearby

    This is a very special luxury B&B. The inn is meticulously maintained. The grounds are filled with fountains and all types of vegetation. You are plied with treats throughout the day. The neighborhood is fantastic. The beds are very comfortable. And, it's quiet. Couldn't ask for more.
