Insider Tip

Allow the concierge to pair you up with a stellar local skipper for a private charter sunset sail in partnership with the Santa Barbara Sailing Center.

Where You’re Staying

Rooms and suites are individually designed but all feature Spanish Colonial Revival architecture with Moroccan influences and custom furnishings for a modern take on seaside Santa Barbara.

Where to Dine

Blackbird offers an inventive cocktail menu and expansive wine list that pairs with a menu highlighted by local ingredients. Goat Tree is a gourmet café with alfresco seating for casual all-day dining. Enjoy a hand-crafted drink and light bites at Djinn or sip on a glass of wine from the Foley Family Wines portfolio at The Society: State & Mason.

Where to Relax

Take a dip in the rooftop pool or visit Majorelle for a one-of-a-kind spa treatment to relax and rejuvenate. The fitness center offers personalized training sessions, private yoga classes, and mindfulness meditation, and features a courtyard space perfect for outdoor workouts.

What To Do

Spend your day on the beach, with beach chairs and umbrellas available at the hotel. Visit The Library to borrow a classic board game, video game console, digital cameras, and more. Explore Santa Barbara on a custom Hotel Californian bicycle.
