房間有點小。佈局有點緊湊。有恆温泳池有停車。廚房。離海邊一步之遙。周邊購物吃飯都特別方便。

很像高級版的汽車旅館，沒有電梯非常不方便，嬰兒推車需要自己扛上樓，路人即可直接走到你的房間門口，讓人感到沒有安全感，服務態度很普通

Our stay was GREAT! This little Inn is in a perfect spot for walking to the beach, park or market. Very clean and cozy. We were greeted and treated like family by Madeline! Planning to visit again!

to begin with, we were greeted by a lovely host named Josh who was so welcoming and accommodating as he checked us in, offering us complementary wine and cookies and suggestions for nearby walkable restaurants and attractions not to be missed. the property is quiet and quaint just a half block from the beachfront with ample off street parking just below the rooms or safe street parking if capacity is full. our room was modernly decorated and well appointed with a mini fridge, microwave and even tea kettle which is rarely found these days in rooms. although we didn’t need to use it, the fireplace was a nice additional feature to see. we will definitely keep Blue Sands saved as a favorite to return to should we find ourselves in Santa Barbara again!

The fireplace was nice in the evening to add warmth to the room. The space was adequate for the price.

We were greeted with the most welcoming front desk, our door was wrapped in Christmas ribbons, the room was adorable, we were served hot chocolate chip cookies, and crossed the street for a walk on the beach! What could be better? We'll definitely be coming back!

Madeline at front desk was awesome! We are celebrating our anniversary and she brought over champagne. Property is in a great location, across street in the coast. Room was fantastic, we were in #4. Our room had a very private patio and a kitchen. Absolutely a do over
