Top Butterfly Beach Hotel Reviews

Coast Village Inn - Santa Barbara

10/10 Excellent

"Great location and staff"

Montecito Escape • Walk to Beach + Hot Tub

8/10 Good

"It was an amazing location and the host was very easy to communicate with our pup also loved it!! Would definitely stay again. Great outdoor space but outdoor furniture was a bit dirty could benefit from furniture covers, and there seemed to be a small ant problem outside and inside."

Montecito Beach House w/Hot Tub & Cold Plunge - Walk to Beach and Restaraunts

10/10 Excellent

"Super spot for two families with children as so much space and wonderful safe patio and outdoor spaces Beaches stores and amazing restaurants just a few blocks walk away. Only flag is to be very careful walking at corner as it’s right next to an exit off 101 freeway with no stop sign for the cars exiting Still a careful cross to opposite side of road and then it’s very safe We loved our stay"

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful and very clean property in quiet neighborhood. Walk to beach, great walking routes nearby. Easy distance to town of Montecito, Santa Barbara. Very easy and efficient communication with Haller Coastal Homes!"

Beachfront Bungalow on Miramar Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Spotlessly clean, unbelievable location. We spent a fantastic few days here and enjoyed every minute of our stay. Beach is dog friendly and easily accessible depending on the tide. The house is fully equipped for an enjoyable stay. Views are amazing and the Rosewood is steps away if you want to stop in for a meal. Only MINOR issue: Parking is unclear, gate code improperly relayed. After asking around and finally calling the management company I was able to locate the parking. A map and or photos of the parking area would be helpful. Hope to stay again someday."
