Pleasant and better than perfunctory. Many guests brought pets so ideal for them but linoleum on bedroom floor not so good for petless guests. Cheese and wine in evening is a great idea and breakfast included, hence being a B & B I suppose!

We really liked Casa Del Mar. It's been very tastefully remodeled and the staff was so nice. The rooms are spacious and clean. The neighborhood is quiet and calm. We especially liked the wine and cheese in the evening and continental breakfast. We took our wine outside to sit by the fire pit to enjoy the stars.

Just stayed at Casa Del Mar for a quick trip up from LA with my mom. Amazing location, close to all the waterfront action but just barely tucked away to keep you relaxed and quiet. Only disappointment for us was they got rid of their hot tub which we were informed of at check in. Was a personal bummer as... More

Wanting a decent location and good price, I found the perfect spot. Set in a quiet neighborhood, I felt right at home. The lobby was clean, offered afternoon wine/continental breakfast, and even had a fireplace going. My room faced the courtyard which had sitting areas and was nicely decorated. My room was also clean and smelled clean, had a comfortable... More

When I entered the lobby to check in (at 9pm) and smelled the fresh flowers I knew we made the right choice with this hotel. Our room also had fresh fragrant flowers, was clean and was such a pleasure to arrive to. The gas fireplace had a timer so we fell asleep to it and I have to say it... More

We were in Santa Barbara for an off-season vacation. The weather was in the 70s in the early spring. This place was unique, comfortable, inexpensive (as places like this go) and near the waterfront -- our favorite place in Santa Barbara. Every place we wanted to experience was within walking distance of the hotel -- including beachfront walking, the warf,... More

This lovely little hotel has more of a resort feel than hotel feel. Out our window were blooming shrubs with the flowers at the level of the window and above so we could see the colours even while lying in bed. The room had a cement floor, no carpet, which I didn't mind because I sometimes find hotel carpets dirty.... More

If your expectation is set at the level that this is an "inn", then you won't be disappointed. It's a block from the beach and only a few blocks from the wharf so if that's where you want to be, this is a decent spot. It was great for my family (3 small kids) b/c the rooms are fairly separate... More

These were definitely previously apartments but what an excellent job of renovating. It is literally 1 short block from the beach. You can see the ocean from the balcony. Rooms: Cozy, sea-colored and airy. Old-fashioned windows that open all the way and the shades that roll down give great black-out effect. Refrigerator w/freezer compartment, microwave and sink. Flatscreen t.v's. Very... More
