"This 20-acre Mediterranean-Spanish style property between Butterfly Beach and the Santa Ynez Mountains has red roof tiles, ivory-colored adobe buildings, and jungle-like grounds. Past guests call it the “American Riviera at its best.” Rooms come with ornamental ironwork, walnut furniture, and baths with rain showers and deep soaking tubs. Bella Vista showcases organic, Italian-inspired California cuisine and has “the best Sunday brunch, with a mesmerizing view of the ocean.” Staff are “gracious, warm, and friendly.” “It’s where Zorro would vacation with his lover—Spanish romance on the Pacific.” Spa treatments are based on botanicals from the gardens of Santa Barbara."
"Slated to reopen with the refreshed Coral Casino Beach & Cabana Club and a forthcoming Thomas Keller restaurant." - Sheila Yasmin Marikar
"There's not a lot to hate about this Four Seasons hotel: It's sited along Montecito's best beach, and it occupies a rambling set of Spanish Colonial bungalows and buildings that are lushly landscaped in a way that makes every room feel a bit like a hideaway. Though the on-site pool is lovely, hotel guests can pay a bit extra for access to the members-only Coral Casino Club right across the street, which boasts an Olympic-size swimming pool that's great for kids."
