We enjoyed the views & the beautiful surroundings, and the food was amazing! And we were pleasantly surprised by the plate service for our inclusive breakfast. What a hidden gem, we even got a showing of dolphins and many pelicans in the morning (with high tide).

Room was cleaner than I expected. TV was bigger than expected. Bed was more comfortable than other hotels I've stayed at. Quieter than expected too, I saw a lot of cars in the parking lot and expected it to be loud and it wasn't.

This is a Fantastic property! Everything has been designed with love and care, and if you appreciate everything well organized, and perfectly clean, you will love this property. The apartments, and the gardens have very nice furniture and furnitings, it has been designed for personal home comfort, not a rental property. The art throughout the property is real, not just random so called art that is mass made, and purchased at a commercial home goods store. You will find everything you need in the kitchen to make meals in, and Natty the owner who personally does her own communications with you, has some snacks, several different types of non-alcoholic drinks, and plenty of coffee for you to start off with. The mattress is very good, and the bedding is very nice. There is safe parking on property for each apartment, so going in and out for activities is easy. Checking in is super easy, you will receive a code for your apartment door prior to arriving. I personally love the small town of Summerland, it is close to so many things to do around Santa Barbara, it is best to have a car for this property, but you can also use Uber, and you can walk to restaurants and shops around Summerland. The property is a gorgeous place you will want to spend time at in the gardens, we loved being next to the beautiful water feature in the garden, the small waterfall is lovely to listen to. You will also love the gardens next door at the Sacred Space, and there is an ocean view park across from the apartments, great for adults and children. Natty, has built a gorgeous and comfortable property, her communication with you is great, and you feel she cares, and wants your stay with her to be nothing short of wonderful. Thank you, Natty! We will be back:)

I am moving to Carpenteria by the end of summer to be close to family. I am leaving my mountain cabin. I stay at the motel once a month. I love the town and the beach! You can walk from the motel to many restuarants and to the beach, if your legs work better than mine do!

I'm in the midst of having a brand new mobile home placed in a park in Carpenteria, so that I can be close to my grandkids. I enjoy staying at the Motel 6 with my little doggie until I am able to live there permanently.

We were actually working in Santa Barbara but all the rooms were booked up there maybe the last few days of our job and it was a good experience in Santa Barbara and in Carpinteria we stopped by a few stores while we were there and the workers were very friendly. Considering we weren't off until late like maybe 10:00 p.m. 11:00 p.m. and we felt very safe thank you

Easy walk from Motel 6 on Carpinteria Street to restaurants and the beach. "The Spot" for burgers! Little Dom's for fancy feed. I walked my doggie in her stroller. Grocery store two blocks down the street. Not fancy digs. Just PEACE and QUIET. Nice pool too.

When I visit my daughter and grandson in Santa Barbara, I like to have my privacy so I stay here. The dog and i can walk to the beach boardwalk in 20 minutes. There's the tasty burger shack where we share! There are bathrooms. On the way to the beach you will find restaurants and shops. The old doggie is in a nice-sized stroller, so we can bring back goodies. Right next door to the Motel 6 on Carpenteria Street is a grocery store, dollar-type store, and Goodwill too! Have fun!

We have stayed for years on Thanksgiving.

We have stayed for years on Thanksgiving. We love the hotel, but this year I asked for a disabled room and although the shower tub was much lower my husband still had a hard time. We needed a roll in shower.

Great hotel with parking, little pool and hottub. Rooms are spacious and clean and toiletries and plenty of towels provided. Staff were amazing - so attentive and friendly and nothing too much trouble. Breakfast was a good selection and plenty to fuel up on for the day.
