This was the first time I stayed in Santa Barbara and was very pleased with the Harbor House Inn! All the employees are outstanding and very helpful. When I checked in Tanya showed me the map of Santa Barbara and gave me some restaurant recommendations which I love! Everything is within walking distance and the area is very safe. I would highly recommend staying here and will be back!
Family friendly. Modern feel, seems up to date but has the quaint, small town vibe. Very clean inn and relaxing. Small business owned, hosts are super kind and warm. They had bikes and beach gear! Inn is walkable close to all spots within SB downtown. We loved our stay.
This is a small inn so you are interacting with the owner and her family for the most part which means they really care. Super sweet people. Clean and comfy rooms and walking distance from beach and downtown. Have stayed 2 times and will be back!
