Just returned from an annual spa trip with friends. We were upgraded to a Deluxe room with patio. We enjoyed the privacy of the patio. The deluxe rooms on first floor facing pool with a little stream or mote are very nice , too. The first floor rooms offer more patio space. The spa is terrific. If you book appts... more

We didn't have a reservation but after proposing to my girlfriend earlier that day we thought we'd splurge. We arrived later in the evening so unfortunately didn't have a chance to use a lot of the facilities but after a long road trip the room seemed heavenly. They send champagne and strawberries to our room as congratulation which was a... more

Everything about our stay was incredible. The rooms were luxurious, the staff was helpful, the grounds were beautifully manicured and the best part is you are right on the beach. We picked up a couple of bikes from the spa and went for a ride along the beach. The concierge recommended Los Arroyos which is a little mexican restaurant down... more

We stayed at this Four Seasons on recommendation of a friend from Washington DC who loves it and stays every year with her four children. I don't see what she finds so charming. The Mexican waiters in the restaurant had miserable, sour faces and did not make us feel welcome at all. I brought my 13 year old son and... more

The first thing to note is that the hotel is actually in Montecito and is a $20 cab fare away from Santa Barbara. The grounds are lovely and you are greeted with a lovely sea view when you come out of the hotel. The outstanding feature of the hotel is the stunning Coral Casino lido, which is just gorgeous, with... more

I stayed at the Four Seasons Biltmore for one night with my wife on the way down the California Coast to Los Angeles...I had very high expectations for both the hotel and the town of Santa Barbara, itself...The hotel has a great location right on the edge of town, across the street from the beach...I expected a much larger/grander entrance... more

We took advantage of the special weekday package (stay 2 nights and get the 3rd night free). It's still expensive but it was worth it. We love the grounds, the service, the room, and especially the Olympic size pool on the ocean. It's the ultimate in Santa Barbara luxury. more

I stayed at the four Seasons Santa Barbara while working on a wedding that was being held at the hotel. From the moment we pulled in, it was a delight. Checking in was a breeze and the hotel staff were very helpful. They gave us some information on the hotel and surrounding areas, and bell service led us to our... more

The worst $550 hotel room we have encountered. We travel frequently and stay in premium hotels and have a clear understanding of the price of luxury accommodations and what may reasonably be expected in a $550 room. The hotel is very OLD and has not been modernized. The rooms are tired and inadequate and are simply not worth the price.... more
