The 10 Best Hotels in Santa Barbara of 2024

"San Ysidro Ranch is a perennial favorite for T+L readers, who consistently vote it among the best resorts in California and the United States in our annual World's Best Awards. The resort is a true haven for travelers seeking the utmost in privacy and pampering. Here, visitors arrive through the tree-lined drive and are met with lush gardens, including olive trees that are hundreds of years old. All its individual cottages offer a home-away-from-home feeling, with private patios, fire places, and four-poster beds to give just the right touch of romance." - Travel + Leisure Editors
