Beachside Inn

4.0 Orbitz Verified Review
It's a great place for economy minded travelers. I had a harbor view room, and enjoyed the morning mystery of watching the sun rise in the west.

Brisas del Mar

5.0 Orbitz Verified Review
My wife and I stayed for at Brisas de Mar, Inn at the Beach for nine days in early January. We had a wonderful visit there. The staff were all great. It felt a bit like a family "home" rather than a hotel. Our room was great and was nicely laid out. The service was excellent, as well. The perks were equally impressive...the breakfast, wine & cheese, and cookie times were all delightful. We also enjoyed the access to the bikes for getting around town. The Inn was also very close to the downtown areas and the beaches. We walked almost everywhere we were going in the city. Finally, when we rented a car for the last part of our stay, we were grateful for access to free parking. All in all, we would highly recommend Brisas del Mar. If we ever go back to Santa Barbara, we would, without doubt, return to Brisas del Mar, Inn at the Beach.
