Learn more about Goleta
Forget the usual beach town clichés – Goleta delivers coastal California without the crowds. At Goleta Beach Park, locals fish from the pier while students relax on golden sand. The monarch butterfly groves at Ellwood Mesa transform eucalyptus trees into living tapestries when thousands gather. University energy flows from UC Santa Barbara into Isla Vista's buzzing streets. Zodo's offers bowling with craft beers – a California twist. Nature lovers will appreciate El Capitan State Beach's dramatic cliffs and tide pools. For a perfect afternoon, grab local tacos and head to Refugio State Beach, where dolphins often appear. The Santa Ynez Valley wine country awaits just over the hills.

Ramada by Wyndham Santa Barbara
"The lagoon and ducks were beautiful."
Wine Valley Inn
"Friendly staff, clean premises, comfy bed, warm food, hot coffee, good time."
Avania Inn of Santa Barbara
"The room was clean for the most part but I did find hair in the shower and some stains on a towel. There was also a large crack on the shower wall but overall everything seemed clean. I did wipe down surfaces on my own to double check. I did think the TV was a bit odd as it lists Netflix, YouTube and Chromecast but upon asking Front Desk they said they are not accessible. Not a huge deal but just odd. Staff was extremely friendly and helpful though and the AC was fantastic during the heat wave."
The Leta Santa Barbara Goleta, Tapestry Collection by Hilton
"We had an enjoyable stay in our patio room. Place very nicely maintained. My only thing negative to say is I wish our room’s floor had felt a little cleaner on my bare feet. Looked okay though. Lovely staff. Lived the cafe and bar. I would go back."
The Franciscan Hotel
"Amazing staff, location, and amenities. Breakfast was ok. Who needs that when you are so close to so many amazing restaurants and eateries in the area. I can’t wait to stay here again!"
The Ritz-Carlton Bacara, Santa Barbara
"In every thing was great thanks"
