Santa Barbara's Santa Ynez Inn Unveils Renovations

Santa Ynez Inn has just unveiled its new renovations. Located in the foothills of Santa Barbara wine country, the 20-room luxury inn has updated and transformed all guest rooms, common areas, event spaces, spa and gardens.

The property was designed after a historic turn-of-the-century inn; it has chandeliers, grand fireplaces, high ceilings and curated art and antiques. 

Guest rooms average 650 square feet and offer large bathrooms – most include jetted whirlpool tubs, heated floors and steam showers, as well as balconies or patios overlooking the gardens.

There are both private and couple’s treatment rooms available with specialty treatments including the champagne-infused Signature Massage. Guests enjoy total relaxation with a flute of sparkling wine, organic champagne body butter and champagne-infused aromatherapy. The property also houses a fitness room, hot tub and dry sauna.

Outside, guests can spend time in the park-like gardens. At night, two brick fire pits and a large fireplace offers warmth and ambience.

The inn offers indoor and outdoor event space, great for a wine country wedding. The 1,500-square-foot, newly renovated Coach House offers an large dining area that opens to an outdoor patio. There is also a full bar, sitting area, and service kitchen available for catering up to 120 guests.

Santa Ynez Inn has also partnered with 21 of the area’s top wineries to provide guests with complimentary tastings, a perk not available at any other property in the valley. In the upcoming season, the Inn plans to offer live music in the garden, a whiskey program in the library, and activities such as wine maker dinners, murder mystery dinners, and tai chi on the lawn. 

The AAA Four-Diamond Property is located in the Santa Ynez Valley, a renowned wine region with more than 70 boutique wineries, award-winning vineyards, fruit orchards, lavender farms and horse ranches. The Inn is walking distance to several boutiques and popular restaurants and is just five minutes from the Danish village of Solvang and sister property – The Landsby.  It is also just 90 minutes from Los Angeles.
