Alexx helped us check in early and helped us out with showing kindness and laughing at our jokes. Great customer service!

Nice receptionist helped out with checking in early. 100% recommend.

After all these years still a great location. Unfortunately, it out of season and very slow. Service was not up to its usually high standards. When our shower control broke we called the front...

Not as great as last visit

As always as a diamond member upgraded to a 1st floor too with a patio and ocean view in beautiful Santa Barbara
Wonderful staff, especially Aidan at front desk.

Beautiful stay

My wife and I stayed at this resort in October of 2025 to celebrate our wedding anniversary.  I booked the highest level suite the resort had available well in advance as a Hilton Honors member...

Truly disappointing

Kristen does an amazing job! Very welcoming! Hotel is perfectly located for a visit to Santa Barbara! Will come Back soon!
