The Cabrillo Inn in Santa Barbara was nice but very far away from the Amtrak station where we had a car free experience. If I had a family and wanted to stay away from the crowd and had a car I might prefer to stay at Cabrillo Inn. The rooms where simple and plain. The staff was very helpful and... more

The Cabrillo Inn has a fantastic beach location but unfortunately the cleanliness of the room (bathroon), maintenance (clogged drain in tub), and smoking policy (people smoke on the common deck) are not the best. Not a good value for the price. Look for something else. Would not stay there again. more

When we arrived I was amazed at how delapitated the property was for the $179.00 price although it was right on the cross from the beach. The rooms were even worse. Very old, lumpy, uneven beds. Smelly carpet and 1970 furniture and bedding. No air conditioning or bright lighting in the rooms and very few parking spaces on the lot.... more

After checking many places on the net and looking through Tripadvisor. My wife and I decided along with my 20 and 18 year old girls and my 12 year old son we choose the Cabrillo. The 2 days and nights we stayed we had a great experience. The staff was great and the rooms were clean and comfortable. There is... more

This hotel is okay if you're not looking for a quiet romantic get away. The staff is friendly enough with good resturant suggestions. The rooms are clean. My main problem was with the noise made by other occupants of the hotel. Because most of the rooms surround the swimming pool, you can hear the folks in the pool at all... more

Management response from

Thank you for your recent stay here. We take pride in keeping a freindly atmosphere, and keeping our rooms clean for all of our guests. Our pool hours are from 9:30am to 9:30pm and once in a while somebody tries to break the rules. In this case we politely tell them the pool hours and ask them to wait until...

The staff was polite and helpful. I felt relaxed and comfortable during my stay. The room was clean and well-maintained. The pool area along with the water was just right. The view of the beach was excellent!! I definitely recommend this hotel to other potential visitors. more

We came to Santa Barbara for a family reunion. This hotel is right across the street from the beach. The room was clean and bed was comfortable. We had a nice ocean view. No hair dryer. I did bring my own just in case. NO AC and it was 93 degrees. I'm told the weather was unusual. We went for... more

Last December, our extended family f 12 stayed at the Cabrillo Inn for a one-week reunion. This was our second reunion at the Cabrillo Inn and we had a terrific time. The location is spectacular, the staff most friendly, efficient and accommodating, and the amenities most enjoyable. They are renovating the rooms over time and the "new" rooms are even... more

I was just checking the reviews on this property and was AMAZED anyone who checked in had not checked out within minutes (as I did). I stayed there years ago and it was fine. This time...it was a disaster. Dirty pool, totally pathetic room, misfits from a Texas trailer park around...no way in h... Needs to be bulldozed. more

My Family and I are always more than happy with our stays at the Cabrillo Inn. We have vacationed at the Inn once or twice a year for the past 6 years, with our most recent stay being October of 2007. Our room was super clean with fresh, new, linens and towels of fine quality. If we needed anything in... more
