First time staying here and I am definitely coming back!! Beautiful property, beautiful view!! If you didn’t want to leave the property, you really don’t have to, as everything you would need is on site!
The location, grounds, room, amenities and parking situation is fantastic. I’ve stayed at a few different hotels in Santa Barbara and this is one I’d definitely come back to. I highly recommend this hotel
I enjoyed the hotel very much. The room size was larger than normal and having two sinks was a plus. You need a car if you want to go downtown (state street). Parking at the hotel is pricey
The property is amazing, with beautiful views of the ocean. It was very clean and well maintained, and the staff was very friendly.
We will definitely be back.
Great room with a partial view of the ocean. Staff was really nice and the check in and out was super easy.

Disliked: Staff & service
For how expensive this property is I'd expect more than, at best, a three-star experience. There is no staff to help you and the room cleaning service never appeared until we called. While everyone was friendly and helpful when we ultimately got in touch, it's clear that staffing at this hotel needs to greatly increase to meet the Hilton standard.
Very family and pet friendly. We have young boys and were traveling with our dog, and the accommodations were perfect - large, clean room, and we felt welcomed throughout the resort. We loved the shuffle board and pool area, and of course the proximity to the beach!
