I absolutely loved my stay at Casa Jardin! The place was spotless and beautifully designed—modern, fresh, and super comfortable. I really appreciated the keyless entry using the last 4 digits of my phone number, which made check-in and out so easy. The in-room espresso machine and kettle were perfect touches, and I loved that they provided natural tar remover pads—so thoughtful for Santa Barbara’s beaches! 10/10—can’t wait to stay here again!

Very friendly and helpful staff. Service was exceptional where they couldn't do enough of you. Cheshire Cats is a collection of colonial buildings around a central courtyard. It's a taste of European charm in the middle of Santa Barbara.

The overall experience of our stay was amazing, the staff does a great job at keeping the hotel up and the lobby and pool area are exceptional! we stayed in Tide pool 3, it was exactly what we expected and more! kitchen is fully stocked with utensils and cookware which is awesome! tub has jets and is deep. bed was very comfortable! worth the price to have the extra room and be away from the rest of the Villa.

The property was exactly as pictured - absolutely beautiful and charming! It was small, but it was just for my husband and myself and we spent 2 nights. Everything was clean, decorated impeccably, not fancy, but everything you could need. The "view" was of the outdoor patio area that was very private and cute. And I don't think it was in the pictures, but on the other side of the tall hedge, there's another patio area with a full dining table. The location is great if you like Summerland and Montecito. The only slight negative I would mention is that the property is on a really quiet culdesac and as far as I could tell the only access to get anywhere was out via the busy highway which is not walkable in this area, so you've got to drive. I stayed in this area many times and typically need to drive most places anyway and the setting and the ambiance and the privacy were well worth being in the middle of town. This place is perfect if you are looking for some alone time or time with your special person. You will have total privacy and quiet in a beautiful setting, very close to Summerland, Montecito and Santa Barbara. FYI also a small kitchen, had coffee and some spices and condiments. Really a great set up!

For all the years that my husband and I have selected vacation rentals both in the States and abroad, the Bath Inn stood out as exceptional in a number of ways. We both were extremely relaxed and comfortable at the Inn due to the warm and helpful staff, the beautiful surroundings, the delicious breakfasts, cookies and evening wine. The Inn was clean and comfortable; the guests friendly and down to earth. We loved our 4 day stay at the Bath Inn.
