The Leta Santa Barbara Goleta, Tapestry Collection by Hilton

The Leta Santa Barbara Goleta, Tapestry Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent
"We were looking for a pet-friendly hotel. My son works in the hotel industry and he suggested this hotel. We were quite impressed with the customer service, the fact that the hotel does not charge a pet fee and the beauty of the hotel. The only thing we didn't care for was the restaurant Caya. The atmosphere and live music were wonderful, but the food was not very tasty. That wouldn't stop us from coming back because there are many food locations within walking distance from the hotel. We also chose a room with a patio which was nice because we could sit outside our room and enjoy the live music and relaxing ambiance."

4BR Near UCSB & Santa Barbara • Private Hot Tub • Walk to Beach • Pool access

10/10 Excellent
"This was a lovely home base for our family while attending a week long program at UCSB! The house and yard are beautifully and thoughtfully renovated, the kitchen is well stocked with essentials plus what I would consider a few extras, and there is plenty of space to relax and spread out both indoors and outdoors! The host was very responsive and is clearly putting a lot of pride and effort into making this a home away from home for their guests! I really appreciated the simple decor and lack of clutter because my toddler could roam around the house without safety concerns or fear that he would break something. I wish I had noticed the lack of AC when booking, but there were plenty of ceiling, window, and additional fans to keep the house comfortable as long as we stayed on top of turning those on as the evening breeze picked up. We would definitely stay again next time we’re back in the area!"
