A nice place overall. I think most of the rooms have been renovated. Initially, we were placed in room 1 (an older room) but after requesting a room change, we were moved into a newer and quieter room. The staff is friendly and helpful. Good location as well. I would stay again.

A beautiful, charming place with good-sized rooms. Excellent breakfast with a good selection. Also a variety of things available during the day - the hot spiced apple cider was EXCELLENT. Especially welcome during that cool, rainy week. Staff was very helpful. All around, our favorite place that we stayed on our trip. Only suggestion would be better places to plug in phones, chargers, etc., in the room.

It was a beautiful penthouse apartment with an outdoor space. We had a good breakfast every day and a good bed to rest on each night. Staff was very helpful, and we used the free bike rental. Would definitely stay there again!

The staff at this hotel are truly amazing. They work together like a family and offer fantastic local suggestions for food, sights, and beaches. The beds are comfortable, the rooms are lovely, and I especially appreciated the enclosed glass showers—so much nicer than dealing with a shower curtain! We took the hotel’s bikes for a beautiful sunset ride along the beach just down the street, and they even had two kids’ bikes available. The hotel itself is quaint and thoughtfully laid out, with gorgeous grounds. The heated pool was a highlight, and we loved enjoying evening swims. Breakfast in the morning, coffee and tea available all day and evening cheese, crackers, wine and cookies. Overall, a wonderful stay. Highly recommend!
We celebrated our anniversary here. What a lovely surprise!

Brisas del Mar is a well-managed hotel just a few blocks from the beach and a short walk from the Santa Barbara Pier. My wife and I have stayed here many times and have never been disappointed. The atmosphere is relaxed, with complimentary continental breakfast in the morning and wine and cheese in the afternoon. The location is excellent—easily walking to a park, the beach, and restaurants. We always take advantage of their free bike rentals too.
