Beach Hotels & Resorts in Santa Bárbara from AU$114

"Superb hotel. "

"Great hotel, lovely staff, good choice of dining options, multiple pools and comfortable rooms. The only let down is that access to the spa is not included. "

"Gorgeous hotel - well maintained. Entertainment was plentiful and decent too. Food was lovely and a good variety for each meal too. "

"Very nice! A little loud at night from the local nightlife if you’re room is not an ocean view but not their fault…just FYI"

"I really liked this resort. We treated ourself to this 5 star hotel for our anniversary. They have an incredible pool, the biggest salty water pool in Europe and the Spa massage made me fly. The location itself is stunning and it's 30 seconds walk from the ocean. The staff has always been helpful and kind whenever we asked for something. Dream place and you feel like a king/queen. What could have improved: Big hiccup when we checked in. The reception OFFERED us a vip plan (red level) as a special thing for our anniversary, but the dream crushed when they presented me the price that was double what I already paid in my reservation. When I asked what was included with it, again lack of clarity in the explanation. I was in the end convinced to upgrade because it was deemed as sooo much better, but then when I realised that it was just a better room, jacuzzi, some kids free areas and more exclusive restaurants (that you have to pay separately) we knew it was not for us and we asked to downgrade (all this took 2h where we did not have a room yet). In that moment I wanted to give 1 star for that service. I give 4 stars overall as all the other staff members did their best to help us and make our stay a positive experience so 5 stars to them. Special mentions to Dieny and Mathias, super friendly and professional, who went over and beyond. Another inconvenience was that our room had a panel coming off above the bed that was full of dust behind. We changed room in the end."

"Basically all you may need on holiday in one place. Shops, dinning options, evening entertainment - all in one place."
