This is an older property but well maintained and in an absolutely perfect location. We were able to walk for meals shopping and to the beach easily. The bikes were also great to use for exploring. Staff were gracious and attentive. When we checked out they had already gone to get our car because they recognized us ! The pool is small but well maintained. We had the pool area to ourselves quite a bit but when it fills up it can be a little loud. I highly recommend Jeanine’s for breakfast and the honor bar for cocktails. Both just steps away. Just a truly wonderful stay in a magical area for relaxing and unwinding.

Property was centrally located in Montecito, however, the property rooms are small and dated and the building elevator was broke for five days during our stay. I wouldn’t recommend staying here again as there are other properties in this area that seem more updated and accommodating for our needs.

We enjoyed our stay at this older but remodeled hotel for two nights. Our room was clean, comfortable, and the amenities were nice. However, we were disappointed to find a charge for a $70 robe we never touched or used on our final bill. We called the hotel to clarify the charge, but unfortunately, the issue was never resolved despite follow-up by email. This left a sour note on an otherwise pleasant experience.
