We had been traveling all day, hubby wanted to wing it (not my preference at all) whilst looking for happening surf spots. We reach Capenteria at 7.00 and after checking what seemed the best option for us Best Western (booked out $140ish a night) and being thoroughly scared by the Casa De Sol ($100 a night for a room that...

Do not stay at the Summerland Inn - it was dirty and old the rooms are packed with mismatched furniture. It was horrible - if there was anyother place to stay I would have gone there but all of Santa Barbara & Carpinteria were sold out - visit the local bar and they will warn you...to late for me...if the...

Scar? Scab? No, this is the swollen, festering, oozing wound upon the beautifully quaint face of Summerland. This is a story of warning. Heed it, please! I've never left a review on TA, mainly bc my job involves writing. & well after a trip, typing out something just feels 2 much like work. But the summer land inn drove me... More

The Summerland Inn has been the recipient of much 'bad press' in recent reviews, however as a frequent guest of the last (5) years, I am happy to report that the Inn does have its redeeming qualities. First of all, if you don't like crowds that come w/ typical Inns even smaller ones, you would appreciate the intimate atmosphere of... More

From the moment we walked in the front door, we were freaked out. Old, musty smell. Old furniture. We had room number 7. The linen was stained, bathroom floor had long black hair (we are both blond) and the bed felt like a board. The only reason we stayed here was there were no other rooms available anywhere else. Luckily,... More

After finding out all the hotels in Santa Barbara area were booked due to graduation night, we saw a sign that said lodging in Summerland. So we followed the sign and came to Summer land Inn. From the outside appearance looks like a quaint small hotel. BUT LOOKS ARE DECEIVING!!! My husband went into the lobby, which was locked at... More

I am really surprised that the reviews on Summerland Inn are so bad. We arrived quite late and were very relieved to find a very cheap room for myself,my husband and my son. The lady was friendly and the room was fine. It wasn't five star but then again it wasn't a five star price. Coffee was available on request... More

We stayed here one night. We did not have reservations and found this place through our GPS. We called and she gave the rate of $115 for a room with 2 double beds. We did not reserve and decided to do a drive by. It looked like a very quaint B&B with all of the crank windows open. We were... More

This was my first experience at a bed and breakfast. In that I'd only heard positive reports of B&Bs, the website depiction of the rooms appeared quite charming and the fact that the Inn had the only available rooms in all of the Santa Barbara area on the dates needed, I made the reservations despite the fact that the price...
