The Vista Suite - The Marlowe Boutique Hotel
About this stay
The Vista Suite, our coziest unit at The Marlowe, is designed for charm, intimacy, and a touch of whimsy . This second-floor hideaway is lovingly outfitted to make even a short stay feel special. The bedroom itself is a snug little retreat – just big enough for the comfy bed it holds – draped with a unique fabric canopy ceiling that creates a cocoon-like atmosphere for dreamy nights . In lieu of a traditional TV in the bedroom, enjoy a private mini cinema experience with a movie projector, perfect for cuddling up with your favorite film. Step through French doors onto your private balcony, where you’re greeted with picturesque views of the historic Santa Barbara train station and the Santa Ynez Mountains beyond. It’s the perfect perch to watch the world go by – from the distant chug of vintage trains to sunsets over the mountains – drink in hand. Inside the suite, you’ll find a full kitchen for convenient meals and snacks, plus all the upscale touches The Marlowe is known for (luxury linens, high-speed Wi-Fi, and more). Pet lovers rejoice: the Vista Suite is pet-friendly, so your furry companion is welcome to share the experience. Intimate and enchanting, the Vista Suite is ideal for couples on a romantic beach getaway or solo travelers seeking a cozy, character-filled home base in Santa Barbara’s beachfront neighborhood. Nestled in the coastal beauty of Santa Barbara, The Marlowe Seaside Inn is a boutique coastal lodging that blends vintage charm with modern luxury. This lovingly restored inn – located just two blocks from West Beach and across from Santa Barbara’s historic train station – offers a tranquil retreat for guests seeking a romantic beach getaway or relaxing vacation rental in Santa Barbara. Each of the inn’s boutique suites is thoughtfully designed, featuring authentic period furnishings updated with eco-friendly touches and indulgent amenities like luxury linens and spa-quality toiletries. By day, sunlight and ocean breezes fill the rooms; by night, the soft glow of antique lamps creates a warm, intimate ambiance reminiscent of old Santa Barbara. Guests enjoy the best of both worlds – the timeless atmosphere of a 1930s seaside inn and the convenience of modern comforts. All four of our suites come with fully equipped kitchens, high-speed Wi-Fi (500 Mbps), smart Roku TVs, and keyless smart locks, ensuring you have everything you need for a comfortable stay. The Marlowe Seaside Inn prides itself on its welcoming atmosphere and personalized touches – including pet-friendly accommodations for those traveling with furry companions – so every guest feels at home. Just a short stroll from the inn, you’ll find Stearns Wharf, the harbor, and downtown’s boutique shops and restaurants, making The Marlowe both an idyllic beachside escape and a perfect base to explore Santa Barbara. Experience where sustainability meets laid-back Santa Barbara luxury at The Marlowe Seaside Inn – a true coastal gem offering vintage soul and modern comfort in the heart of the American Riviera.
