I like the place overall. It was lovely and the check in is super easy. They will give you a code to the inn and you can access the front door and your bedroom. The staff were friendly and helpful. One downside was that it was hard to find the right temperature for the shower. But I will stay there again.

The place is a beutiful old wooden house converted in a small hotel. It's completely automated, so there was no staff working in the lobby of the hotel, which was very creepy. The house was remodeled, but still the air was stuffy and smelled very old. I wanted to spend a few nights in beautiful Santa Barbara, and not to stay in a museum. In addition, there were no A/C controls in the room so I had to ask staff over text messages for help multiple times. It's a beautiful house to see, but not remodeled sufficiently to be a hotel I want to stay in.

Beautiful, private setting, great location!

It was a great stay and I would return there but the air conditioner didn’t seem to keep it cool enough for my husband and he had to open the door in the middle of the night to cool down the room more effectively. Other than that, communication was great and everything else was lovely.

Quaint and cozy

Quiet, peaceful, and easy. So relaxing. Definitely an old house with all the charm that comes with age. We are self sufficient travelers that do not mind the contactless "ghost" inn vibes. It was actually refreshing to travel independently, felt much more simple. Humberto is also super friendly and easy to get ahold of if you do need anything. If we do come back out west, we will absolutely stay here again!

We stayed in the Penthouse Suite with my husband and son, and it was absolutely perfect. The suite featured a comfortable king-sized bed, a couch that converted into a bed, a relaxing jacuzzi tub, and stunning views from the balcony. We appreciated the chilled water waiting for us in the fridge and the plush robes that added a luxurious touch. A special thank you to Humberto, who ensured we were able to check in early and had everything we needed. His thoughtful recommendations for food and activities, along with the personal touches and excellent communication, made our stay extra special. We truly felt cared for and can’t wait to return!

Our recent stay in the Darcy Room at De La Vina Inn exceeded all expectations. The thoughtful combination of historic charm and modern comfort created an unforgettable experience. The king-sized bed was exceptionally comfortable, but what truly set this room apart was the luxurious bathtub and private terrace overlooking the front garden - perfect for enjoying morning coffee while listening to birds. The inn's location is ideal - we could easily walk to Santa Barbara's fantastic restaurants and attractions, yet the property felt like a peaceful retreat. The garden areas are beautifully maintained and create such a serene atmosphere. We particularly appreciated the secure keycode access system, which made coming and going effortless. What impressed us most was the attention to detail throughout the property. From the cozy common areas to the immaculately kept gardens, every aspect of De La Vina Inn has been carefully considered. The room itself struck a perfect balance between historic character and modern amenities, making our stay both authentic and comfortable. If you're looking for an intimate, charming alternative to larger hotels in Santa Barbara, the Darcy Room at De La Vina Inn is an absolute gem. We're already planning our next visit!
