Built in 1874, this Victorian bed and breakfast is surrounded by lush landscaped grounds and 3 blocks of city parks. It features gourmet breakfast and evening wine tastings. We’ve stayed at the Simpson twice and both times we’ve been blown away by the surroundings and the team who work there. The rooms are unique and the gardens feel like a haven. The staff make every effort to help you have a good time, shout out to Frank especially!

Motel 6-Santa Barbara, CA - Beach

Hotel in East Beach, Santa Barbara

A very short walk from the beach, this pet-friendly Santa Barbara motel features an outdoor pool and modern guest rooms with cable TV. State Street is a 5-minute drive away. There was nothing not to like! From booking in to passing the cards back, everything went well!. One really sensible approach was to ask us if we wanted our towels changed every day (no! We don't at home so why when we are only there 3 days/4nights?). At the same, we were asked if we wanted our room cleaned daily; again the answer was No Thank You!
