Very comfortable rooms, helpful staff, and less than five minutes walk from the beach. The welcome drinks were much appreciated! Parking is a little tight though, and unfortunately, some guests have huge cars that make it difficult to squeeze into the space next to them.

This place was a great stay! Great location- close to the beach and walkable to State St. The room was very clean and spacious, and the bed was comfortable. The Spanish style architecture and landscape added to our wonderful stay. Although breakfast is not served, there are complementary cookies, fruit and coffee. A definite stay next time we are in Santa Barbara.

The hotel is in a great location and it is newly renovated. We were right outside the pool, however on the first floor, which did made it feel a lot less private and the walls were thin, but all in all it was a very good stay.

My stayed in the Mason Inn Beach was amazing! I came with my family to celebrate my birthday and I got the most pleasant time at this property. The moment I checked in the staff was very welcoming and friendly, the property looks clean sharp and amenities are very comfortable. Perfect stay for families, vacations and getaways. I highly recommend the Mason Inn Beach, close to the beach and the downtown SB.
