Photos of Castillo Inn at the Beach

Overview

Santa Barbara's Castillo Inn at the Beach is a 20-room boutique inn built with beautiful and distinctive Mediterranean architecture. The inn is among some of Santa Barbara's more popular tourist accommodations, yet offers a respite for couples looking for a romantic getaway. Castillo Inn has the advantage of being close to the action while feeling secluded and intimate.

Every room at Castillo Inn is elegantly decorated. The décor matches the Mediterranean architecture, while the floors are made from Italian Scabos tile and brand new carpet for improved soundproofing between rooms. Every room in the inn comes with 100% cotton oversized towels, Italian granite vanities, a refrigerator, flat screen TV, in-room coffee maker, desk, bedside table, and free high-speed internet. Guests are also welcome to a complimentary continental breakfast as well as an on-site business facility and dry cleaning service.

One of the main reasons people come to Castillo Inn is for the surrounding attractions. Stearn's Wharf is just down the street, a popular stop that was built back in 1872, making it California's oldest working wharf. The hotel is also just a short walk away from beautiful sandy beaches and all of the fun activities that come with them. For guests who are looking to do some shopping, State Street is nearby as well. This is a strip of boutique shops that offer some incredible retail opportunities that guests won't be able to find elsewhere. Beyond walking distance, there are many other things to do if visitors hop in a car, like golf courses, the Museum of Natural History, The Maritime Museum, Santa Barbara Museum of Art, and wine country tours.

While Castillo Inn doesn't have any dining options within the building, it's within walking distance to several amazing restaurants. At the marina, visitors can enjoy some amazing seafood dishes at The Waterfront Bar & Grill. For something more casual, they can try out Endless Summer Bar & Cafe or Brophy Bros.
