Hotel Californian - A Moroccan-inspired seaside resort with rooftop pool, celebrity-designed interiors, and wine experiences in Santa Barbara's Funk Zone

The property showcases over 1 million handcrafted tiles, many imported from Morocco. Hotel Californian's dining venues include Blackbird restaurant with coastal cuisine by Executive Chef Travis Watson, The Society: State & Mason wine tasting room offering 70+ Foley Family wines, and a rooftop pool with Pacific Ocean views. The 2,850-square-foot ballroom, 4,500-square-foot plaza, and 3,670-square-foot rooftop deck accommodate events. A Turkish-inspired spa, 24-hour fitness center, and custom bicycles enhance the guest experience. Just steps from the beach and one block from the Amtrak station, Hotel Californian anchors the food and wine-centric Funk Zone district.
