Santa Barbara, CA US

Rating: 4 Stars
On the bluffs and beaches of the central California coast lies a resort of stunning natural beauty and relaxed luxury. Like an intimate Mediterranean village, Bacara sprawls over 78 pristine beachfront acres, nestled between the Pacific Ocean and the Santa Ynez mountains. Located just ten minutes from Santa Barbara Airport, the resort's terra cotta tile roofs, covered archways and wooden trellises lend it the understated, relaxed appeal of a true classic California resort, yet our guests have at their fingertips the most advanced modern conveniences and cutting edge technologies. Our attention to the most minute detail and our warm, discreet service all evoke the gentility and glamour of the golden age of Hollywood. This is the essence of Bacara- elegance, understatement, complete serenity.
