15 Best Pet-Friendly Hotels Across the US | Condé Nast Traveler
"Though best known as a top romantic retreat in the US, this 550-acre, celeb-frequented hideaway is also famed for its pet-friendly ethos. Dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes are welcomed guests in the bucolic cottages at San Ysidro Ranch and can even reserve massages at the spa. Through the Pampered Pet Program, dogs can look forward to a custom baked dog bone, plush bedding, a Ty beanie dog toy (a nod to ranch owner and Beanie Baby creator, Ty Warner), and even a dedicated in-room dining menu (The peanut butter and bacon pancakes are a favorite). Meanwhile, feline friends will receive a Ty beanie cat toy, a scratcher with catnip, a water fountain with San Benedetto Artesian Water, and a feather teaser toy. Many of the 38 accommodations feature tricked-out private yards for outdoor lounging with Fido, plus plunge pools and hammocks for human counterparts. The greater manicured grounds are idyllic for longer ambles. Heated outdoor seating at acclaimed restaurants, The Stonehouse and Veranda, means pets can join in at mealtimes, too. You’ll find hiking trails abound in the surrounding hills, rich in breathtaking views of Montecito’s windswept coastline. What’s more? Most Santa Barbara wineries welcome dogs—just ask the concierge which ones. Fees & more: $150 per stay. Dogs and cats are welcome. No weight or breed restrictions." - Paul Rubio
