Downtown Santa Barbara5 nights9.4/10 - Exceptional (1,400 reviews)"Beware if you prepay in Expedia they not only put a incidental $150 hold on your card, which is expected, but also a $375 that nobody told me about nor could explain why it was “authorized “ even though the room was fully paid for. The only explanation is “oh it automatically placed when it prepaid “ ….for what? Im still not convinced it’s a hold that will come off in the week or two . Glad I don’t need that $375 anytime soon."Reviewed June 10, 2026Roundtrip • New York (EWR) - Santa Barbara (SBA)EWR - SBA • 1 stop SBA - EWR • 1 stop$1,805$1,233found 1 day agoper traveler - Brisas del Mar, Inn at the Beach
