Top Central Coast California Hotel Reviews

The Ritz-Carlton Bacara, Santa Barbara

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing Spacial Place"

Vagabond Inn Santa Barbara - Carpinteria North

8/10 Good

"place was convenient as a motel 6 style layout; the gentleman at the front desk is a stellar model employee as first contact to your hotel and should be commended for his professionalism and candor; pleasant and respectful. My room has a connecting door which was super creepy as i could hear them moving, breathing and talking as if they were in the room next to me. The other room was a corner room on the other side and was pleasant. Two gas stations and a 7 Eleven next door. Giant parking lot"

SeaCrest OceanFront Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Access to beach, walkable to downtown along the beach, great view, good amenities, many fire pits, reasonably priced. Has a EV charger, not fast speed, but it’s there. A great stop along Hwy 1 between LA and SF! The AC didn’t quite work, I think they are trying to preserve energy. So you have to open the windows. The air is crisp at night so it’s good. But if you are on the ground floor, you may not want to open the window/patio door for safety concerns as it’s accessible by everyone. It will not be a problem for the 2nd floor."
