When visiting Santa Barbara we've always stayed at one of two favorite places closer to State Street, but our choices were limited when we decided to make a last-minute one-night reservation for Memorial Day weekend, so we made a reservation here based on generally good reviews on this site. Our room was a little dated (as noted by others here),... More

We stayed at the Encina Lodge while visiting Sansum Clinic. The lodge is just across the street from the clinic and Cottage Hospital. Very clean, we went without reservations and they had the accomodations for us. They also have a discount if you are visiting the clinic. The Cottage Cafe in the lobby of the hospital is a wonderful place... More

This hotel has so much to offer! The suites have kitchenettes,there is a beautiful pool and the spa is located in a quiet location. The rooms have been recently renovated and everything is very clean. We will definately return!

This Lodge is surprising wonderful. They have a great pool and spa. The rooms are spacious and clean. We had a double Queen room. The internet is very fast. We had 3 people in our room and the bathroom was large enough to accommodate all of us. There is a separate large area with a sink separate from the also... More

Loved this hotel. Even though it is an older property, the rooms and grounds were immaculate. Suite had lots of room to spread out and a nice deck overlooking the pool. The bed was comfortable and bedroom was quiet. Could hear some noise from neighbors through living room wall late at night, though. State street shops and Stearns Wharf, SB... More

They should most definitely warn people who have vans or suv's (pretty much everyone in the TINY garage) that maneuvering in there is very difficult between the... More

I checked in late and checked out early so the only thing I really experienced about the hotel was the room. It was clean and well equipped with toiletries and complimentary snacks and water. The pillows and bed were very comfy and the tv remote had it's own little "sanitary bag". There was also a ceiling fan which was quiet... More

Check-in was very smooth and the staff was very friendly and informed us of where to check to see if the whales were migrating still when we mentioned that we were interested in whale watching. The hotel consists of multiple two-story buildings in a quiet residential neighborhood. We were a little apprehensive as we noted that there was a hospital... More
