"This has got to be one of my all time favorite stays! The hotel was incredibly clean, the shower heads were wonderful with good pressure, and there was a trash can at every area you’d need to throw something away. There was a machine in the lobby that would make coffee, cappuccino, or hot chocolate whenever you wanted and the breakfast was hot and delicious (not to mention complimentary!) I kept trying to find something I’d change about my stay and I couldn’t find anything. One thing I would note is that if you are wanting to spend a lot of time in the pool or hot tub, it is rather small. That wasn’t a big deal to us since we hadn’t planned on using those amenities. Every staff member we encountered was very professional and pleasant. It very much felt like a private secluded inn rather than a busy mainstay hotel. My husband and I are making Santa Barbara a yearly trip and we will only book with Avania Inn from now on."

"Loved my weeklong stay. The room overlooking the pool and beach was so comfortable and amazing. The restaurant is 5-star whether it’s morning latte, scrumptious breakfast or lunch or incredible dinner choices impeccably prepared. I really didn’t have to venture beyond the restaurant for amazing fresh Mediterranean/Italian food and stellar service. Thank you for making my work (writing) holiday so memorable!!"

"### Hotel Review: Pleasant Stay with Harbor Views During our recent stay on the 3rd floor overlooking the harbor and Wharf, we found our room to be very spacious and relatively quiet. The hotel is conveniently located near numerous amenities, restaurants, and attractions, making it an excellent base for exploring the area. One of the highlights of our stay was the 2-hour bike rental coupon provided by the hotel, which allowed us to explore the surroundings in a fun and eco-friendly way. The hotel features a heated open pool and a covered spa area, both of which are open from 8 am to 11 pm every night. This provided ample opportunities for relaxation and unwinding after a day of activities. Additionally, the hotel offers a free continental breakfast and a delightful wine and cheese service from 5:30 to 6:30 in the evening. Our room was well-appointed with a King bed, a fridge, and a small love seat that converts into a full-size bed. True black out curtains. The bathroom came equipped with typical amenities, including a hair dryer, shampoo, body wash, and conditioner. The bathroom had a window within which was a nice touch. The room also included amenities such as an iron and ironing board, and two comfy bathrobes which we found hanging in the closet. The room had a 40” RCA TV with several inputs, allowing us to plug in our Firestick without any issues. The free high-speed WiFi, with speeds of around 10-12 Mbps, was sufficient for streaming Netflix smoothly but not the "

"wonderful property- we had our room facing the pool and could not hear the kids swimming- rooms are well sound proofed- the complementary sparkling wine was a nice touch"
