Unfortunately got woken up by the bin men one morning. WiFi was a bit hit and miss in our cottage because we were furthest from the main house

Quiet and secluded in lovely garden environment . Dominique, the owner, was very kind and accommodating. The bed was very comfortable. Excellent breakfast served by Dominique : croissants, scrambled eggs, fresh fruit.

The shower head needs to be fixed in Kingsfisher room.

Dominique is very welcoming and helpful. We had everything needed in our room, including electric kettle, and jacuzzi was clean and relaxing after the day of walking. The location is very quiet, and it is truly a cozy secret garden. Breakfast was delicious with homemade baked pears, veggie quiche, and a French touch. We will return to this place when we visit again.

We loved everything a out our stay. The homemade French breakfasts(quiche, fruit, croissants, coffee/tea, juice) were tasty. The room was well-equipped and comfortable. The gardens are lovely and the location is not far from State St. Parking also included.Highly recommend.

The spa is great though you need to know how to operate it. We couldn't turn it off for a while until we figured it out. Until then it was really loud in the room.

We really liked the little cottages that were surrounded by a beautiful garden. The interior was nicely decorated and you felt like you're at home. The host was really friendly as well.

The bathroom fan was super loud so when you turned on the light, it sounded like a gardeners’ leaf blower. Should look into getting that replaced!

Breakfast was so good and really filling! Sitting on our porch having breakfast was so peaceful in our little garden forest setting. It was a really private oasis one block over from main streets so we could walk to Ice cream or coffee, and our hostess was so knowledgable about antiques that she sold in her little gift shop that it felt like we were somewhere in the french countryside. We would highly recommend this little B and B to any couple looking to getaway.

Was satisfied with the whole package.

Everything. A charming lovely room, perfect for one. Location is excellent for me; just blocks from my cousin's home. Breakfast was incredible; a homemade croissant paired with excellent jam,plus a slice of homemade pound cake, some fruit, OJ and coffee. Served outside on the private little deck attached to the cottage where the room is located. My hostess is a lovely French woman who does the croissant baking herself, with a little help from her daughter on the pound cakes. A lovely European experience hidden away in Santa Barbara!

The fan in the bathroom was very noisy and we were conscious that it would affect others next door if we kept it on . We booked with booking.com and was led to believe breakfast was included . Sadly it wasn’t .

The cottage was very quaint and the gardens were beautiful . A lot of thought had gone into the cottages and it had good facilities . We thought breakfast was included but it wasn’t in our package . Having said that the host kindly delivered croissants and coffee every morning . Extremely kind . Thank you .

The Secret Garden Inn is truly a delight. Our charming, antique-furnished cottage was beautiful and exceptionally comfortable. The proprietress was extremely kind and warm upon our arrival; we just regret we could not partake of her home-baked croissants at breakfast the following day. The Secret Garden is very well situated in an old section of Santa Barbara between the downtown area and the Mission Church. Secure, off-the-street parking is a plus.
