This boutique hotel is located within a 5-10 minute walk to the beach and 10-15 minute walk to the funk zone where many restaurants and shops are located. It is in a perfect location. All of the staff were commendable, especially Esteban at the front desk who greeted us very warmly and gave us a lot of information regarding the hotel and surrounding areas. Our room was number 17 by the pool, which was very clean and had great water pressure and temperature control to its shower. Bed was very comfortable and soft. Linens were soft, clean and smelled fresh. Perks were a bottle of chilled sparkling wine in the refrigerator for all guests, wine hour from 4-6pm daily and a heartful selection for breakfast (boiled eggs, fruits, oatmeal, bagels, corn flakes, yogurt and granola). Its sister hotel (Las Brisas-located directly across the street) had a jacuzzi that you could use as well as bikes that you could take out on a first come/first serve basis in 4-5 hour increments to sight see that didn't cost anything to use. We didn't drive. However, they do have free parking with what looked like approximately 15-18 parking spaces. If you're feeling real adventurous, we took the public bus (number 11) from Santa Barbara airport for $1.75 each and rode it downtown Santa Barbara to the transit station near upper state street. From there, we had a leisure walk about 25 minutes to the hotel where we had lunch along the way. The bus ride took about a hour with all of the stops in which we got a little tour along the way. People and driver were all friendly. We felt very safe as well on the public transportation.

I usually don't do written reviews, but this was by far the best Inn I've ever stayed at. Aron checked us in but what he actually did was being a tour guide telling us everything we could check out in the area, all while being one of the kindest human beings I've met. Then we got a free room upgrade and the new room was basically a flat including a fully equipped living room. In addition, they provide you with champagne on the house upon arrival, every single day there is a complimentary wine tasting with snacks, you can fill up your water bottle as often as you'd like free of charge all day, there is a really nice pool, and you can do laundry (wash and dry including detergent for four dollars) and rent bikes for free at their partner hotel across the street. I'm still speechless as they offer all this at a comparably really low price and everything is super clean, the staff is extremely friendly and helpful and the location js just perfect, no matter if you arrive by car or train, and the beach as well as downtown are within walking distance. Thank you so much for everything!

Very peaceful place with the beautiful garden, complimentary wine happy hour, small fountains, fireplace on chilly mornings and the kind, helpful staff. I got a queen room and it was very comfortable for me as a solo traveler. The room has a fridge, a coffee machine, and a microwave, which were really convenient for me. The housekeeping upon request works totally fine with me. They work really well as well. The assistants at the front desk are helpful and attentive. Many thanks to them. Many of the hotels here don’t provide breakfast so I am glad that breakfast is available. Overall, I loved it. Hoping to come back.

Convenient location: We were within walking distance to the beach and State St., but we enjoyed using the bicycles provided by the Lavender Inn. Ample parking spaces. The breakfast in the morning and wine tasting in the afternoon kept us nearby. We were initially hooked with the notion of lavender scent, and they provided a small pouch of lavender on our pillow at check in. The front desk even provided some earplugs when the tenants next door exercised some vigorous slamming of their door.

Everything! The staff was so helpful and friendly. A bottle of sparking champagne waiting for us in the room? It was delicious with the complementary breakfast as mimosas that were enjoyed so much! Wine and cheese in the afternoon? I felt so pampered to sit and relax in the wonderful surroundings every afternoon with a glass of delicious sangria!
