Excellent stay, if my family and I travel back to the Santa Barbara area we would stay again at Brisas del Mar!

Amazing! The staff was helpful, friendly and kind. Rooms were clean and well stocked. Breakfast was plentiful and delicious. Happy hour was a much needed refresher. Loved sitting in one of the seating areas having a snack and relaxing. The hotel is Walking distance to everything. Can’t wait to stay here again!

Comfortable accommodations. Great staff and delicious breakfast

It's a great place for a couple or a family on a leisure trip. The suite is with a full kitchen. clean and well equipped. The host is super friendly and professional. Breakfast is great, happy hour with free foods. Walking distance to the harbor and pier and the state st.

nice place.. room decor a little tired but comfortable., friendly staff.. good breakfast.. location excellent

From the time we walked into this hotel until the time we walked out everything was so excellent. I don't leave reviews usually but this was so above and beyond the call of duty that I had to tell everybody this place is fantastic

Brisas Del Mar was great!! Location is excellent. Grounds are kept well. It has character and the service is excellent. The bikes you can borrow are a great touch!!

I cannot recommend this hotel highly enough! Foremost, the staff is the most hospitable, accommodating, and welcoming I’ve ever encountered. You can tell that they take tremendous pride in their hotel and delivering the best experience possible. We loved the FREE evening wine/snack reception, morning breakfast, and bike rentals! Our King Suite was clean, spacious, and it had a full kitchen! Justin and his front desk staff were the tops. Micky spent about 20 minutes with us providing excellent restaurant and recreation recommendations. When we return to Santa Barbara, I wouldn’t even consider staying anywhere else.

Loved our stay! Beautiful property and great location.

Friendly, kind and helpful staff at the front desk and housekeeping. The rooms offer comfortable beds, linens, and towels. Just a few blocks to the beach, dining options and shops. The hot tub was perfect and the happy hour wine and snack in the lobby was a nice treat. We can't wait to return.

Delightful!

Friendly staff.

Staff and efficient with our requests. They were very friendly. We enjoyed the free bike rentals.

Large room and kitchen.

Good location and friendly staff. Easy walk to wharf and marina. Charming Santa Barbara style hotel with clean grounds. Complimentary wine tasting with snacks each day and fresh coffee in the lobby every morning. Very nice lounge area with sun or shade options to enjoy the wine. No complimentary breakfast at this time due to Covid, but they provide a bagged continental breakfast for every morning of your stay. Room was very nice (we had a suite) and water pressure in shower was fantastic. Bed a bit on lumpy side, but comfortable. Very small fitness room containing only a stationary bike, elliptical machine and treadmill. I would suggest taking out one of those three bulky machines and replacing with a rack of free weights and workout bench.
