Places

Two ends of one small city.

Everything we look after sits inside Santa Barbara, in two neighborhoods — one flat and walkable a few blocks off State Street, the other up on the hill where the streets bend and the ocean shows up on the horizon. Which one suits you is mostly a question of whether you would rather walk to dinner or come home to quiet.

Where the two neighborhoods sit in Santa Barbara A simplified drawing of Santa Barbara. The Santa Ynez foothills run along the top, the Pacific along the bottom, and Highway 101 runs between them roughly parallel to the coast. Downtown is marked near State Street, close to the water. Bel Air Knolls is marked to the northwest, further inland and uphill. Santa Ynez foothills The Pacific US 101 State St N Approx. 1 mile

A drawing, not a survey — the shapes are simplified and the positions are approximate. It is here to show which end of town you would be in.
