Cute property that's secluded and quiet. Loved that it was dog friendly and would have loved to explore more if it wasn't raining! Would be great for a girls trip or a couples weekend.

Check-in definitely was not a good start to this trip. Arrived at 4:15pm for check -in and I was advised to wait a few minutes while the room inspection was completed. It was not until 4:53 that we were able to get our keys. Checked a couple of times with the front desk in the meantime, but didn't seem to speed up anything.

Customer service was seriously lacking. From the room not being ready an hour and a half AFTER check in time, to no apologies or smiles from front desk staff, to long waits for breakfast from the kitchen, this was not up to par for this type of hotel/pricing. The room was beautiful but functionally poor. Lighting was so dim in the bedroom, bathroom door wouldn’t shut unless you threw your whole weight against it, tub was chipped, no bottle opener for water bottles sold as part of the mini bar, sliding door unlocked when we got to our room. No lotion as part of toiletries offered, and the AC shook and was so noisy. Very disappointed in what looked like a high level hotel (based on the prices and photos).

The steward is a hidden gem. We happen to come across by chance. It is such a lush property. We loved walking the grounds with our dog. The rooms were very clean and cozy. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. We had a delicious breakfast brought out by Angel. He was so informative and pleasant as was everyone else. We will definitely be back soon. The only thing is, I think the rooms should have screens so you can enjoy the beautiful clean air without all the bugs.

Promising. Beautiful hotel and property, but lacking in amenities. Only reason to justify the price is you get a one bedroom suite, which was great for having small kids. Property is beautiful, but that’s about it. You get a patio facing a parking lot or parking lot/highway. We had no towels in room upon arrival and didn’t realize until we need to get ready for dinner. Called 3 times to get towels and finally arrived 1 hour later by front desk. Housekeeping was no where to be found. There is no pool service. Although they said there was weekends after 3, but never saw anyone. The pool was pack and they have 2 cabanas. However, you have to book the cabana through resort pass, not for hotel guests and no priority to guest. Inviting more people on the property for already small space. We did this bc we wanted a spot. The cabana for some reason is on compacted dirt, not pool deck, so your feet are dirty and gritty the whole time. We also had only one roll of toilet paper and were missing our do not disturb signs all of which took a long time to receive. It’s $30 to self park every night. Given the price of the room I expected more, but no one even helped us with our bags.

This property is stunning. What a nice oasis and larger than you would expect from pulling in. The only thing that was annoying is they charge you for parking despite being a "pull up to your room and park yourself" type of place. Our room had a bedroom and common room with a pull out couch which my kids slept on and said was reasonably comfortable.

This hotel sits on an amazing piece of land. Very serene and lots of areas to relax and enjoy the setting. My callouts are surrounding the restaurant and bar. It's closed between 11am and 5pm which isn't ideal if you're on a staycation. We also had issues with our shower. The water was scolding hot. I would also advise that you get a room on the top floor if you don't want to be bothered by your neighbors. I had a family with kids above me and I had to listen to them run around in circles from 8am... Not fun!

Have stayed at the Steward a few times when in the Santa Barbara area. First stay since it changed ownership- glad to say, the rooms and the rest of the property have been maintained well. Mattress super comfortable, best night sleep I have had in awhile. Only negative was the $30 a night parking charge. I can see this in downtown, but the outskirts of Goleta? Otherwise a great stay.

The hotel is beautifully updated and the rooms are spacious. Lobby/bar is also really nice! The staff were also so friendly, every person we encountered was super nice. However, I did have two issues with my stay. 1. the gym never had any gym towels stocked when I was there working out. This was frustrating especially given that I was there earlier in the day to work out, when fresh towels would likely be stocked. 2. Our room's thermostat was not working, so we had to switch rooms because the room was too hot to stay in. We paid for a king suite and there were no king rooms left, so we had to switch to a room with two queen beds. Being that we were in town for our wedding, this was a HUGE disappointment. The front desk staff meant well by giving us free breakfast to help rectify the situation, but our stay was still slightly tarnished because of this issue. That said, I would stay here again as long as everything works properly and get the room that I reserved and paid for.

The place was beautiful. Comfortable and very relaxing. Two thing that we felt that needs attention. First, water in the shower is very light, no pressure at all. A bit disappointing when taking a bath. Second, we can hear heavy steps in the room above us. Quite bothersome when going to bed.

I will never stay here again! So many issues, worst hotel stay I think I have had. The rooms are nicely updated, but nothing works! The hotel key card, safe, frig, etc were not working. Water in shower was lukewarm. Also they are on well water so sometimes the water is dark brown/reddish color. Disgusting. I could not brush my teeth! The worst thing is that they do not care at all when brought to their attention!

This hotel was absolutely darling! What a hidden gem. It was the perfect relaxing getaway after a few days in LA for a business trip. I was recovering from surgery and in a lot of pain, and just being on this property made me feel relief. I loved the friendliness of the staff, everyone was so kind and accommodating. The property was emasculate and peaceful, and the room was beautifully put together. It was so hard to leave the room at times to explore the town because it was so cozy!

Overall a good stay. We liked the hotel and cleanliness and would stay here again. Just some small stuff, like a room for 5 people and only 2 towel hooks, one hook coming off the wall. Didn’t have the room we booked (maintenance issue), but sorted things out rate wise which was fair to us. A bit noisy at times from other rooms (we were on first level) but nothing that kept us awake all night.

The hotel is very cute. I was nervous after reading a couple of bad reviews, but I would highly recommend this boutique hotel. I only have two recommendations. One is to request a room facing the pool. The street side is a little bit loud. The second would be not to prepay for breakfast at a cost of $60. We would have spent less just paying out of pocket. Otherwise the hotel is beautifully appointed and was prefect for our needs. The rooms are spacious and comfortable.

The room was incredibly loud on the first floor, you could hear everything guests were doing above you. The vent for the heater is right next to the bedroom and quite loud as well. The Hot tub was beyond disgusting, a smell of feet was coming off of it and it had a foamy green hue, our swimsuits needed to be thrown away after due to the scent. Our toilet also had brown water from some water line issues they had and it wouldn't clear for the whole first day we were there. This place has a great marketing team, it looks like a resort on the website and when you show up you realize you have been scammed.

Staff was very friendly and welcoming. The hotel is new and rooms are very spacious with easy access for parking. Unfortunately the wifi didn’t work the entire stay and the rooms are not insulated well, walls are super thin (you hear people moving around above you easily which made it hard to sleep).
