Harbor House Inn

We were looking forward to a restful stay after time in the city of Los Angeles, and Harbor House Inn was exactly what the doctor ordered. From the moment we checked in, we felt welcomed. We were greeted by Carlynn, whose family has been running the hotel since it opened. She gave us wonderful local recommendations, helped us get oriented, and encouraged us to enjoy as many of the complimentary snacks as we wanted — a small touch that really stood out and made us feel at home. The location is ideal: walkable to the Funk Zone and the waterfront, yet quiet and tucked away from the crowds. Each morning, we made a full pot of coffee in our room and walked down to the water to say hello to the seals and take in the view — such a peaceful way to start the day. Our room was large and very spac

We planned a three-day trip to Santa Barbara near the harbor for my wife’s birthday, and it was a perfect family getaway with a two-year-old. We visited the MOXI Exploration Museum, which had affordable tickets, free entry for children under two, and allowed re-entry throughout the day, making it very kid-friendly. We also spent time at the ocean and aquarium museum on the pier, rented bikes that accommodated our two-year-old (he absolutely loved it), enjoyed some wine tasting, and ate at several great restaurants.||||Harbor House Inn was wonderful and tied the entire trip together. The room was very spacious, clean, and well-appointed, with a full kitchen, walk-in closet, and high ceilings. It felt more like a stylish Santa Barbara condo than a hotel. The location was ideal, within walkin

Beautiful room/suite. Comfortable bed and spacious room. Well appointed, clean and great amenities. We're here for a week and love it already after one day! Close to the beach and walking/biking paths, restaurants and souvenir shopping.

Positive: Space and location / walkability. Negative: N/a

What a find! We stayed here on our way to Los Angeles and loved it so much that we booked it again on our trip back to the Bay Area! The rooms were impeccably clean, had comfortable beds and the inn is one block from the beach. I loved that they have a fully stocked garage with everything that you need for a great beach vacation- bikes, boogie boards, lounge chairs, beach towels, etc- all available for free use! The first night we stayed in room 2a which has an enormous jetted jacuzzi tub. They even had lavender bath salts! I am telling all my friends about this place and can’t wait to stay again!
