Santa Barbara was absolutely beautiful!!! It was really lush and green there! The wildflowers were blooming everywhere! The mountains and hills were super lush and green and very beautiful! The Botanical Gardens are incredible and are filled with poppies and wildflowers! The Mission, Courthouse, State Street, Stearns Wharf, and Alice Peck Park are all amazing places to visit! The weather was a perfect 73 degrees for most of my trip, until the last day. The people were all very nice and pleasant to deal with. Brophy's, at the Harbor has the best fish and chips that I have ever had!! There were some whales right off of the Harbor that I was privileged to see! There was also an awesome feeding frenzy that brought in hundreds of pelicans and cormorants to dive into the water at the same time!! It was phenomenal to watch. People who have lived in Santa Barbara all of their lives have never seen anything like it!!! It was an absolutely amazing trip!

We visited in February when unknown to us was the film festival, the weather was perfect, town seemed quiet even with film festival which was a bonus, still able to grab tickets. Plenty of restaurants to choose from, lots with outdoor eating with patio heaters. We enjoyed the SB Whale watching trip we did, small exclusive boat made us feel VIPs and saw plenty of humpback whales. Easy to walk around the town, but also easy to drive and explore neighbouring Montecito

For seafood, Lure is amazing!!! Chad's and Cajun Kitchen are great breakfast spots.
If you are there on Sunday, see the Art/Craft Market at the Beach. Lots of amazing stuff and all the vendors are so friendly.
Also, a huge recommendation to Olive Hill Farms in Los Olivos. Great place for oils and vinegars.

Loved the beautiful landscaping and architecture everywhere.
Loved the beautiful landscaping and architecture everywhere. Clean city and easy to navigate while driving but MapQuest misguided me numerous times. Excellent ethnic food restaurants. Lots of choices. I’m recommending “Meet Up” Chinese, “Your Place” Thai and “Masala Spice” Indian foods. Meet Up was first place I’ve ever been served by a robot!!!! Very cool!

Santa Barbara has a lot to offer from beaches to hiking...
Santa Barbara has a lot to offer from beaches to hiking mountain biking to sailing and other outdoor adventures. I would have liked to have more time to explore. Relax at the rose gardens at the mission, hike more, beach sunsets and dinner downtown. Getting around is easy. Biking is fun! I would avoid the traffic in the funk zone on Friday night. Park in a paid lot and walk in is what I recommend. Also check out the Farmer’s market downtown on Tuesday nights and Saturday mornings. Wishing everyone a great time!
The hotel is well maintained. It is in an excellent location. It is a dog friendly hotel which was an awesome surprise. Lots of cute pooches running around. While we were there we didn't see a single dog act up. Staff are super responsive and relaxed. It seems the owners are not over working and understaffing which I appreciate. The location is prime. Like a mathematician chose the optimal walking distance to all Santa Barbara has to offer. The pool area was clean, well maintained, and relaxing.
The property is located one street back from the front and pier area of Santa Barbara. The neighborhood was quiet and parking on site was no problem. The suite booked had 2 bedrooms and a well appointed kitchen area. Coffee was on tap in the lobby area & there were fresh cookies every afternoon. The pool on site was warm. Staff were friendly and helpful throughout our stay. For the tour we did the Franciscan represented the best value inn we stayed at.
Lovely hotel in all respects: Convivo, the restaurant in the hotel (where we sat outside and enjoyed views of the beach) is fabulous; all staff at hotel and in restaurant were terrific; room was spacious and comfortable and we had a nice water view from our balcony; very well located, right in between downtown Santa Barbara and Montecito. All in all, a great stay and we would definitely return!
Have stayed in many of the beach-front hotels in SB, and this is the best by some margin. Most are tired old motels that have been jazzed up to one extent or another and charge a fortune for what you actually get. Harbor View is a bit more expensive but much better - a proper 4 star level of furnishing, comfort, etc. I would certainly choose it again.
Everything! The hotel was located in the best part of Santa Barbara, Montecito. Safe, clean, quiet and unpretentious, it is what I look for in a hotel. The front desk staff was very friendly and inviting and the room was huge with 2 comfortable queen sized beds. I also enjoyed the free parking
The room was lovely and bed very comfortable. I stayed there so I could see my daughter who was studying at UCSB. it was only a 20 minute drive to the university. Santa Barbara was amazing and the hotel was right on the coast overlooking the sea.
The hotel was minutes away from downtown Santa Barbara and also a short drive to Carpinteria. There is a Starbucks and IHOP across the street. The front desk staff were super friendly and accommodating. I would definitely stay here again.
The rooms were clean and breakfast was good. All service folks we came in contact with were very friendly and helpful. The hotel was close enough to downtown Santa Barbara, which is where we spent most of our time.
The rooms are huge and comfortable. The location was convenient between Goleta and downtown Santa Barbara. The lobby, the restaurant and outdoor area are super cute. And the staff was super friendly!
