Santa Barbara Getaway

City Spotlight: Santa Barbara

Time has been flying by - weddings, commitments, house work...you name it! With all the hustle and bustle of summer coming to a close, we decided it would be nice to have a mini getaway just for us. With Oliver in mind, we started looking for pet friendly locations to spend a weekend of R&R. Clearly, Santa Barbara was the natural choice!

There is something magical about the city of Santa Barbara - from its architecture, to the restaurants, and, of course, the breathtaking views. It truly is perfect. Ollie loved walking around the streets, shops and eateries. We absolutely love how dog friendly everything is!   

Oliver Approved Bed & Breakfast: Casa Del Mar Inn

This adorable puppy friendly B&B is in a prime location. Just down Bath Street, this hotel is extremely walkable, not to mention wonderful. They serve wine and cheese every night for guests as well as breakfast each morning! Quaint and quintessential SB, this B&B was beyond awesome!
