Valet, housekeeping, restaurant servers, front desk all gave us top notch care. They were personable and asked great questions to meet our expectations. The view, grounds, sunsets were incredible. It’s was such a treat to be pampered especially since we were celebrating my wife’s birthday. Hope to visit again. Grateful for this memorable experience. 😉

This small inn is located steps from the beach in Santa Barbara, California. The inn offers a free continental breakfast and free evening wine tasting with snacks.

The Villa Rosa Inn features an outdoor pool and hot tub in a private garden courtyard.

Great location and great cosy ambience. I loved the bathtub with a huge window, giving a very outdoorsy bath feel. Lots of old-fashioned wood used in the room, adding great aesthetics. The owner has made efforts to decorate the rooms tastefully.

    Great hotel in a great location. The grab and go porridge in reception was a nice touch. The hotel also provided cookies and coffee which was great also. The rooms were spacious and modern and very comfortable for our stay. We used the heated pool and hot tub which was great.

    The location is very good, we walked to down town and the beach. Room and property was very clean. Personel was very friendly. We had to pay for parking our car. There is no breakfast, but we could take coffee, tea or water and cakes or fruit for free. That was very good. It was a good room, spacious and nice. Nice swimming pool and hot tub.
