Bed & Breakfast

Experience turn of the century charm near the sea at the Old Yacht Club Inn. Within one block of Santa Barbara’s beautiful East Beach, the Inn was opened in 1980, as Santa Barbara’s first bed and breakfast.

The Inn is furnished throughout with period pieces, classic European and Early American antiques. Oriental rugs cover the hardwood floors and capture the warm hospitality that is the trademark of the Innkeepers themselves. The adjacent Hitchcock house features rooms with private entrances and luxuriously appointed suites.

Fresh flowers and a decanter of sherry welcome you in comfortably furnished guest rooms. All rooms have private baths and telephones.

Guests may relax and mingle in front of the brick fireplace, on the covered front porch, or on the patio back deck. The Innkeepers host a social hour where guests are invited to meet and enjoy wine and beverages.

Dining at the Inn is a memorable experience. Upon awakening to the smell of freshly brewed coffee, enjoy a full gourmet breakfast individually prepared by the Innkeepers. During the day you will often experience the aroma of freshly baked cookies, breads and coffeecakes. Saturday evening dinners, served only to Inn guests, have become a special tradition. Our chef skillfully prepares a five-course meal featuring such recipes from Old Yacht Club Inn Cookbook as Artichokes Athena, Salmon with Raspberry Buerre Blanc Sauce and Chocolate Cheesecake. Please inquire about the dinner schedule when making reservations.
