Chase Palm Park

Outside of all inclusive resorts abroad, this is probably my favorite place that I've ever stayed! I will never stay anywhere other than the Beach House Inn on my trips to Santa Barbara. After an unexpected departure from another hotel, we approached The Beach House Inn a bit defeated, but from the moment we stepped on the property, Liz turned everything around for us. This Inn is located in a walkable area - 5 minute walk from the shoreline, 8-10 minutes from state street, the Moxi, train station, coffee shops etc. Another reviewer said the area was rough but I disagree- this is California - the inn is located in a very normal/quaint Santa Barbara neighborhood. The great thing about this Inn is that it is completely gated. From the front entrance by the courtyard, to the parking - you cannot enter by foot or by car without a gate code. You can leave your room, walk into the courtyard and straight onto the sidewalk to head to the beach without going down any stairs. The courtyard - wow. What a beautiful, functional and well maintained space. This is the sort of space you don't realize you're missing in a regular big brand hotel. Grills, bonfire pits with ample seating, and perfectly manicured landscaping. The staff is incredible and makes you feel like family. They work so hard every day and always provided what we needed. The room - EXCELLENT. Spacious, functional, clean, well maintained, new. Ample storage, TV, fireplace and a kitchen! Worth every penny. Book it.
