The Ritz-Carlton Bacara, Santa Barbara Hotel, Goleta (CA) - Deals & Reviews

your dreams of romance come true with exceptional attention to detail and a stunning ocean view balcony

The staff was truly incredible, especially Taylor, who went above and beyond to help us. Our room was breathtaking with ocean sounds. It made for a perfect anniversary getaway.

The sunsets at Bacara are absolutely breathtaking. The grounds are beautifully landscaped, featuring extensive nature trails perfect for an evening stroll. Plus, the staff was always friendly and welcoming, adding to the overall charm.

However, our room had signs of aging and cleanliness could have been better. The beach access was limited and had concealed tar warnings. We also faced some service hiccups while dining at the bistro, which detracted from the experience.

The location, the electric bike rental, the gym classes, the secluded beach – truly a fantastic getaway!

Had a proper boss time, la! The ocean view from our balcony was absolutely stunning, really took my breath away! But, gotta say, the room service took ages and was a bit off—waiting an hour and half for breakfast wasn't sound. Still, overall, great vibes!

Waking up to the beautiful sunrise over Haskell's Beach was unforgettable! The grounds are meticulously landscaped, and the private beach provided a perfect spot for relaxation.

However, our room felt a bit tired, and finding stains on the furniture was disappointing for a Ritz-Carlton. Also, the golf cart shuttles could be inconsistent at times.

Absolutely stunning views and gorgeous grounds! The staff treated us like royalty, making the experience delightful. We felt like we were living in a dreamy vacation movie, especially celebrating my wife’s birthday.

But wait, our room had more character than intended—let's just say a little more TLC wouldn't hurt! Oh, and if I wanted to play hide and seek with tech support, the WiFi was a whole party of its own.

Service was attentive and welcoming 😊. Beautiful views everywhere, especially from the spacious balcony, we loved soaking it all in! Grounds are perfectly maintained too.

No room for improvement.

A Hidden Gem for Relaxation and Luxury!

I loved lounging by the beautiful pool and enjoyed their beach access for a perfect sunset stroll. The staff was exceptionally warm and attentive, making this stay a truly memorable experience. Pro tip, make dinner reservations early to enjoy the best dining options!

The suite was fantastic, with a stunning ocean view. We loved the kids' club, which kept our son entertained, and the complimentary sangria in the lobby was a nice touch.

Felt home care, no complaints at all.

Beautiful rooms, convenient location, with easy access to the beach and excellent dining options at the on-site restaurant.

Nothings

The Standard King Room was comfy, with a nice layout and good views. It had a nice private balcony, which was perfect for soaking in sunset vibes. But the bed made some weird noises and was a bit annoying, waking me up sometimes. The cleaning crew next door was kind of loud too, so that was a bit disruptive. Still, the overall experience was pretty great and the grounds were absolutely beautiful!

the ritz-carlton is right next to a beautiful, secluded beach, which was perfect for relaxing. the resort fee included electric bike rentals, making it easy to explore. I loved our room's patio. it was great to unwind there. the fitness center and spa facilities were fantastic too!

The grounds are stunning with lush flowers and trees everywhere. Room decor feels outdated and gloomy.
