University of California-Santa Barbara resides in this coastal suburb. Goleta Beach’s pier, sandy beach, and barbecue pits attract summer crowds while Stow House is the focal point for local history and events. For four months each year, Monarch butterflies call The Coronado Butterfly Preserve home but visitors can hike year-round through the park’s eucalyptus groves and along the Ellwood Bluffs.

Super 8 Santa Barbara/Goleta
3.4 out of 5 (548 reviews)
"Close to UCSB; good for taking kids to college"
Very small room, only had one, fairly hard, bed when two were requested [through Expedia] (just because it is two adults does not mean that they sleep in same bed!!!) No extra blankets. No fridge as advertised, but there was no room for one. Minimal amenities so take your own hair conditioner, lotion, etc. No provisions to re-use towels (i.e. hang them up if you don't need new ones). Breakfast area was small but they packed a lot in it! Not gourmet, of course, but totally filling including waffles and nice fresh fruit. Nice, clean pool, adequately heated in September. Very nice and friendly staff.

Bacara Resort & Spa
4.4 out of 5 (681 reviews)
"Villa like experience with serenity and security."
Going mid week was an excellent decision as the resort was quiet and we got a great room for the price. It is pricey, but worth the treat. Our villa overlooked the two large pools and we got peeks of the ocean. The room was spacious, clean, nicely appointed, and very comfortable. If you are going for an special occasion, and want a treat, let the front desk as well as the restaurant know. We went for a walk on the beach one day and a short hike the next day. My husband swam in a very clean and warm pool. I loved it, and for a special occasion we would go back!!

"Nice hotel close to everything"
My daughter is going to college UCSB and moved in on Sunday so we drove up north from Los Angeles and stayed a night at the hotel, it is a nice, clean room, better than regular breakfast, close to many restaurants and 10 minutes to UCSB. We enjoyed staying there.

"Very Nice Place ,Safe, Clean"
Pacific Suites is a very nice place to stay. Its a very nice and safe feeling place. The staff seems very friendly and very courteous.The only problem I had was the price. I don't know if it was the summer prices ,or prices for thr college move-in but it was about $125-$150higher than a few months before. I still paid it. Nice Place>

Courtyard Santa Barbara Goleta

"Very comfortable, clean, attractive hotel."
Very close to UCSB. Great hotel. Attractive, clean and comfortable. Pleasant staff. Located in quite area. Close enough to UCSB for a morning run through the campus.
Don't think the extra $$ is worth it for the breakfast though. Breakfast is good but same cost if you pay separate.

"Nice hotel near UCSB"
I had a great experience staying at Hampton Inn with colleagues as we were attending a professional development conference at UCSB. The hotel is near the freeway that quickly got us to the campus- it took us less than 5 minutes.
