What is so special about the Drift are the people. Everyone from folks at the coffee shop, check in team, to the GM Jacqueline are so lovely and provide excellent customer service! So completely above and beyond to make my stay wonderful!
I love the streamline design of the rooms, the yoga mat in every room, and the coffee every morning at Dawn! There are bikes and surf boards to borrow and enjoy in SB. Make sure you check out the yoga studio too!
Also, the location is perfect for exploring, especially all of the vintage shops and The Funk Zone!
I highly recommend staying at The Drift, and hope to check out their other properties.

9/10 Wonderful! (1,007 reviews)
Omg, The Upham is a great hotel & cottage place to stay in Santa Barbara! The staff Veronica, Samantha & Ana were superior to my stay for 3 nights.
I gave it 4 stars because of the WiFi. If you have work to do plan for slow wifi or set time for work getting done in a nearby cafe.
Otherwise, enjoy your stay!! If you need anything, just ask the front desk. It’s a great experience.
