Travel Note

AirBnB

Santa Barbara is a small town and can get expensive during peak (summer) season. We recommend booking early! While we reserved a few hotel rooms as blocks, we highly recommend the many more affordable options through AirBnB and VRBO. There are also several smaller hotels that do not offer room blocks, but that you can book individually. We've linked some of our favorite AirBnBs below:
