Nestled along the Pacific, this luxe Mediterranean-style resort boasts oceanfront views, sumptuous rooms, three saltwater pools, and top-tier service.
"The Ritz-Carlton Bacara is a truly unbelievable property on the Pacific Ocean with candidly unmatched views and elevated tranquility. What more could you ask for? The casual luxury and spacious seaside rooms (many with expansive balconies) are perhaps just what the doctor ordered. And with two-Michelin-starred chef Danny Grant and his Maple Hospitality Group transforming the hotel's signature restaurant Angel Oak, we’re also ready to feast here. Whether you want to stay indoors at the 42,000-square-foot spa or head outdoors for some horseback riding or surfing, there’s so much to do. Right now, The Ritz-Carlton Bacara is undergoing a complete renovation that is slated to be finished in May 2025; we look forward to seeing everything that’s new and updated."
"A luxury resort where proposal butlers create immersive and tailored experiences for engagements that are private yet shareable."
"The Ritz-Carlton Bacara is where you want to be for a totally relaxing vacation along the Santa Barbara coastline. Yes, it's a touch removed from the downtown area (about a 20-minute drive) but that only adds to its sense of serenity. Here guests can roam its 78 private acres that overlook the sea, get a spa treatment (or two) at its 42,000-square-foot spa, or sip your favorite varietal at its new Bacara Wine Tasting Room." - Travel + Leisure Editors
"An oceanfront suite with a spa, multiple pools and restaurants, and paths to the beach."
"We turned to Marriott once again for a stay in the Santa Barbara area and booked two nights at the Ritz-Carlton Bacara just outside of town."
