Highlights

Quintessential California Spanish Colonial architecture has been combined with interiors from celebrity “A list” designer Martyn Lawrence Bullard to create a bespoke coastal retreat in the heart of Santa Barbara. Meticulously crafted on the site of the original 1925 Hotel Californian, the “new” 121-room Hotel Californian features paseos, gardens, fountains, open plazas and unparalleled venues, including a rooftop pool and event deck, ballroom and a variety of meeting and event spaces, together with a Moroccan-inspired spa and salon, fitness center, fashion boutique, and a myriad of distinctive dining options. “Guests will find Moroccan and Spanish Colonial influences throughout the property with indigenous tiles, terra cotta and pops of color" said Bullard.
