Central Coast Hideaway in Santa Barbara, California

Experience a peaceful retreat rooted in the Central Coast of California at The Steward hotel in Santa Barbara. Located on 4.7 acres of iconic historic land of the Sexton House, explore our forest hideaway with a hidden piano or lush gardens where guests can picnic, practice yoga and unwind with lawn games or by the fire pit. Our spacious one-bedroom suites feature natural wood elements, a Fellow Kettle with local and organic California-grown pour over coffee from FRINJ Coffee, two TVs, a dining/work nook, a mini-fridge, and queen-sized sofa sleeper in the living room.
