Top MOXI Hotel Reviews

Hilton Santa Barbara Beachfront Resort

8/10 Good

"Very nice and clean facility, but kind of spendy, but I suppose that's what you have to do to stay across from the beach."

Inn By The Harbor

8/10 Good

"Our room was on the first floor and looked like the photos online - very pretty. This hotel is more of a motel with rooms that are entered from the parking lot. Check-in was a bit unpleasant. The affect of the receptionist was a bit cold and strange. Breakfast was ok - nice variety, and the coffee was very good and nice and hot. I didn't care for the selection of pastries and bagels, but there were plenty of other options. Location is very good - just a few minutes walk to the beach, restaurants and state street. Value for price paid isn't really there, but overall, it was a nice place to stay for the fourth of July weekend. It was a birthday trip and it would have been nice if the hotel had acknowledged that in some way."

Beachside Inn

10/10 Excellent

"The location was fantastic, and the hotel was spotless and well-maintained. The room was incredibly spacious, providing ample comfort. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, going above and beyond to ensure our satisfaction. What truly impressed me was the unexpected amenities offered, such as complimentary coffee, popcorn, wine, and cheese. I had high expectations for a decent hotel, but I was pleasantly surprised that every aspect of my stay exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend this hotel and will definitely be choosing it again in the future."

Riviera Beach House

10/10 Excellent

"We had a pleasant stay a the hotel riviera beach house The receptionist Tristan was calm a collect as we had a small issue with one of the rooms and he didn’t hesitate to adjust and comp us accordingly We go to this beautiful hotel every year for the 4th of July and it has nothing short then a special place for us. We highly recommend this hotel and we will be back next year"

Avania Inn of Santa Barbara

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed at this property for the Fourth of July. It was incredibly convenient. Right by the beach within walking distance of the fireworks display and everything else. Property was pretty quiet. I stayed on the third floor. The king bed was really nice and everything was very clean. I would totally stay here again."
