Luxurious Getaways in Santa Barbara California

I adore California and try to make my way there as often as I can so as to enjoy the sand, the sea, and the surf. I love going to every public and private beach that I can reach and while I love eating street food by the beach, there are times when I need a little bit more R&R so I end up going to more exclusive and luxurious hotels where I can really let go and live, if you know what I mean.

Now, don’t take this to mean I’m some sort of jet-setting brat—I am not. But I do like to treat myself to a well-deserved vacation every now and then. Whenever I have the time or when I feel like I need some serious rest, I like to book a night or two in luxe escapes where I can really unwind. If you feel the same way as I do or if you are looking to go on a real vacation, below are some of the most luxurious getaways in Sta. Barbara California.

Luxurious Spots in Santa Barbara, CA

• Bacara Resort and Spa – The first time I saw an ad for this resort and spa, knew I had to give it a go. While I haven’t yet booked a room here, I made sure to check it out the last time I was in Santa Barbara and it was every bit as beautiful as I imagined. It reminded me of the Greek Isles or some other exotic destination.
• Four Seasons Santa Barbara – Let this resort whisk you off to the Spanish colonial past and dream about romance and adventure while you enjoy the best of what they have to offer. The Four Seasons is a classic and it is one of the most sought-after luxury destinations in Sta. Barbara.
• Alisal Guest Ranch and Resort – There are very few places left in the world where time seems reluctant to move and you can have your way with your day. As it happen, Alisal Guest Ranch and Resort is one of them and you get to bask in luxury as you enjoy wine picnics and horseback rides into the sunset.
