Part Spanish colonial estate, part luxury beach hotel, Four Seasons Resort The Biltmore Santa Barbara embodies the casual comforts of California's laid back, low-stress American Riviera. Secluded palm-lined grounds surround 207 guest rooms and suites. Twelve historic single-story cottages dating back to 1927 feature furnished outdoor patios with fireplaces. Sheltered Butterfly Beach invites a barefoot stroll any time of year.
When meeting planners choose a mood for a corporate event of up to 350, they find the Four Seasons Resort The Biltmore Santa Barbara abundantly able to accommodate it, anywhere from the sophisticated Loggia Ballroom to the airy, white-shuttered El Jardin. Nearby incentives include Mission Santa Barbara and the championship Sandpiper Golf Course. To cap a perfect day, delegates toast the glorious Pacific sunset at the 110-seat Ty Lounge terrace, then follow with superb wine country cuisine at the aptly named oceanfront restaurant Bella Vista.

We've been twice and are planning on going back again. This is a fabulous property. You can't go wrong having an event here.

Upon arrival, a couple of our guests were only given 1 of their 2 assigned rooms. The error was not discovered until the evening when I called my guests to check on their accommodations and was asked why their children didn't have beds?!?
Overall Rating: 4.3/5

This is one of the most stunning properties you could imagine. They have created a sense of retreat and privacy throughout the expansive property. We really appreciated all the little outdoor areas that our clients could spread out to and feel like they had their own private oasis to work on plans. Don't miss the view from the pool.
Overall Rating: 4.6/5

Located across the road from the Pacific Ocean, the Four Seasons Santa Barbara offers a unique southwestern flavor in a picturesque setting. I have conducted several events here and the service levels have always been outstanding.
