Feel the breeze through your hair as you stroll along Stearns Wharf. It's a lovely spot to be as the sun goes down.

Located in Santa Barbara Beach, this waterside attraction is well worth a visit. But you'll find loads more to discover in the area. Santa Barbara County Courthouse, Mission Santa Barbara, and Presidio Santa Barbara aren't too far away from Stearns Wharf.

Everything was perfect! Very clean, pet friendly, nice courtyard, very quiet, and walking distance to everything. Just a heads up if you are going check in late, they won’t send you the code and self check in instructions until after they close through text. They were kind of hard to get a hold of by phone when I initially called for self check in instructions which made me anxious but once I found out you can text them it was a lot easier. They text you often and check in to see if you need anything and respond much quicker through text. I highly recommend booking your stay here. I have already recommended this place to coworkers and friends!

The property is nice and clean, but the air conditioning didn’t work and it was very hot inside, overall had a nice stay.

Location was great…property was peaceful and well kept. Felt safe to walk to dining and grocery. We did enjoy our stay here however i need to point a couple of concerns out… The couch really needs to be steam cleaned or replaced. It was stained and dirty, we placed a sheet on cushions in order to sit on it. Floors did not look dirty but when i wiped spilled water from it the napkin turned black. I clorox wiped the floor just to feel comfortable. I think housekeeping needs to be more detailed when cleaning.
