Santa Barbara feels like a bit of paradise right here on earth. Beautiful beaches, good restaurants, interesting history, and friendly folks. The local pool (Los Banos Del Mar) is really top notch! Walkable city.Guest review byMAGGIETEXTUnited States - 10.0
We enjoyed Santa Barbara as usual.
We enjoyed Santa Barbara as usual. We have been coming there once a year for about 10 years. We enjoyed the Trolley Tour, although we have had better guides. The one we had seemed to roll through all the sights where, during previous visits, we were able to get better photos, and saw more.Guest review byAnonymous - 10.0

We arrived quite late and were welcomed by super friendly staff who offered us snacks and fresh cookies and then told us all about Santa Barbara and where to go. We even got a free upgrade to a really nice big suite! Best stay on our trip to California.
