Vagabond Inn - Carpinteria North

Carpinteria

"This hotel is transitioning ownership from Motel 6 to vagabond Inn. It is a super nice property and I imagine it is the best dollar value for the area by far. We needed a place to stay for an early morning commitment in Santa Barbara. The cheapest thing we could find in Santa Barbara was a hostel stay and that hostel stay would have been more expensive, way less private, And way louder. Very happy with this. Highly recommend."

Very clean. Very luxurious. Private entrance and garage. Multiple private balconies. Everything is within walking distance. Great for families with kids. Couldn’t ask for a better location. "

SeaCrest OceanFront Hotel

8/10 Good

"Property was great. I was too sick to enjoy it. I will go back."

The Monterey Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This historic hotel is in the midst of downtown Monterey with everything being a comfortable walking distance away. The staff was friendly and the room was clean and tidy, everything worked well. There is no on site parking, but valet service is available and a public parking lot is directly across the street from the hotel"

Hyatt Vacation Club At Highlands Inn

10/10 Excellent

"This is the first time a hotel has made me want to come back just to use the amenities again! I would spend my entire trip next time just staying at the hotel. I went for my Birthday and I experienced some of the best customer service I've had in a long time. Everyone was really kind and the amazing views were the cherry on top. I definitely will be back!"
