My husband and I wanted to take a quick getaway/short second honeymoon and I had been planning this for months. After checking out many different places, we decided on the Sea Otter Inn. We were SO happy we did! The room was very quaint, with beautiful crown molding and two casement windows that opened to let in the wonderful sea... more

Stayed at Sea Otter again. The king patio rm was larger than the one that we had previously BUT visibly dirty & worn. Becky at the front desk would not honor the 50% coupon that we had, arguing that the coupon was only for those who were paying the "high season" rate. The coupon did not specify that & we... more

Stayed 3 nights and no changes... more

We checked in 2/28 for 2 nights. Booked a queen, queen patio room. Was given the key to a King Patio room instead. The girl at the desk told me there was another couple in the room for 4 days, and since we were 2 people, the King should be fine. All double queen rooms were taken. I told her... more

Our stay in the Sea Otter Inn was really a stop off between travelling from San Francisco to Santa Barbara. Hadn't booked but staff were very accomodating and we got a room at a reduced rate. The place was stunning and the beach was on our doorstep!! Extremely romantic and just perfect for our honeymoon. The food was lovely in... more
