Hotel
We love this chic little boutique hotel downtown! It's close to the venue, the Funk Zone, and Downtown Santa Barbara. We will be staying here and encourage our guests to as well. Act fast because rooms are limited.
Hotel
This hotel is a nine minute walk to Carousel House through the heart of the Funk Zone where you will pass around a dozen wineries, bars, and places to eat. We recommend taking your time!
Hotel
For swankier digs, we recommend the Hotel Californian. Newly renovated and very central, this Hotel features a Turkish-inspired Spa that is sure to delight.
House Or Rental
If you have a large party or desire the cozy feel of a house, Airbnb has great options in Santa Barbara. Check out downtown SB or The Mesa to be close to the venue. If you're willing to drive a small distance, Goleta, Montecito, and Summerland also have good options.
Flight
Santa Barbara has a great little airport! Flights are typically a bit more expensive, but depending on where you are flying in from, it can definitely be worth avoiding LAX.
Flight
LAX is the closest large airport and usually offers the most affordable options. The drive to Santa Barbara takes about 2 hours from LAX depending on traffic. The 405 to the 101 is fastest, but the scenic route through Malibu on Highway 1 is beautiful (for our East Coast fam), and there are great places to stop along the way!
