As always, this place is super nice, very attentive staff and very relaxing. Breakfast with a great view of Santa Barbara harbor and channel islands is a great experience. The restaurant has excellent food but I can't say the pricing is justified, normal high end hotel pricing I guess. A couple minor annoyances such as room AC not working to expectations but the room temp was still OK, just not as cool as we like for sleep

This property exceeds every expectation. The service was exemplary. Everyone, from the front desk staff to room service to the gardeners, is friendly and courteous and helpful. The grounds are exquisitely maintained. The rooms are generously proportioned with upper end amenities. Staying here will spoil you for any other property.

Gorgeous property and very friendly staff. We came on a holiday weekend so they were at full capacity so it was difficult getting a lounge chair at the pool. I’m sure that’s not always the case. I feel like this property should be no kids under 13. People pay a lot of money to spend their vacations here and no one wants to listen to screaming kids .

**Title: An Enchanting Stay at Bellwood L Encanto** My recent stay at Bellwood L Encanto in Santa Barbara was nothing short of magical. Perched atop a hill, the property offers breathtaking views and an atmosphere of pure charm. From the moment I arrived, the staff's hospitality was outstanding—they were attentive, friendly, and went above and beyond to ensure my stay was perfect. The amenities are top-notch. The pool area is an oasis of relaxation, surrounded by lush greenery and offering a serene escape. The food was exquisite, with each meal showcasing fresh, flavorful ingredients. The fitness center had fun group activities making it easy to maintain my workout routine while traveling. The rooms are incredibly comfortable, providing a luxurious and restful retreat after a day of exploring. Every detail, from the elegant decor to the plush bedding, contributed to a sense of comfort and tranquility. Overall, El Encanto is a gem in Santa Barbara.
