Hotel Santa Barbara

Vagabond Inn Santa Barbara - Carpinteria North

Vagabond Inn Santa Barbara - Carpinteria South
"Safe, location. The stairs to second floor are few. Clean rooms. No iron, need to ask for it at front desk, which is far away from where I was room 250. Quiet room. Will stay again. Pool looks lovely. Great location if visiting the best beach on earth. Lovely town. Near everything."

Avania Inn of Santa Barbara
"The property was as described, clean, very nice rooms. Was it worth over $400 per night- no, but that’s pretty typical of SB. Great location near the harbor, walkable to west beach, downtown, funk zone, etc. Hot tub was a great bonus."
