The Inn is superlative! Beautifully appointed and unique rooms with many thoughtful touches and amenities. I love the stone and wood design, and every aspect of the space is planned with comfort and ease in mind. I am just passing through town, but this could easily be home base for the exploration of ol’ local wineries and beaches. Really a gem, spotless, immaculate, and a joy to encounter after a long day of travel!

Final wine pick up trip

Stayed here (again!) with a friend, her first time. Always like this place, the brick is a great feel, and the amenities are nice. Our only suggestion is window coverings that are easier to open for natural sunlight (as it's a little dark inside)

Location very convenient off 101 Fwy, easy parking, quiet, tastefully decorated unit, excellent bedding. Spacious comfortable room. The pool area is beautiful and very resort-like. Features a full bar and food service. Adjacent Tavern restaurant is outstanding happy hour and dinners were excellent. Proximity to dozens of vineyards and tasting rooms a big plus---Los Olivos and Solvang are within 10 minutes.

The inn at zaca creek is very beautiful inside and out. We had a wonderful stay. Lights have dimmers to make a more comfortable ambiance. The king size bed was very comfortable. You can change the AC temp setting to your desired temp for a good night's rest. The rooms are already on the cooler side, you can turn off the AC later and the room will feel cool for a very long time. It feels very comfortable and private. It was perfect for our weekend getaway and wine tasting in Los olivos and Santa ynez.

Everything is very good, if not quite outstanding. Seating in rooms could be more comfortable. Good burgers at the tavern. This is one of the better options in the area if you can get a decent rate. I would come back.

Great, if you are a grizzly bear.

Probably my bad for not believing the photos. The room is truly a cave, almost to the point of giving me a claustrophobia. This is just a weird place. It’s essentially a decorated motor lodge. I think it would be good if you plan to eat at the restaurant, which we did not. The pool is closed for the winter, even though it’s late April. The bed is relatively uncomfortable, too soft. They clearly got the memo on providing amenities for a five-star room. There is an nespresso machine, extra razors, toothbrushes, etc., but no lotion? The shower is weird, because you essentially step into a giant corner bathtub, which is a big step. No door or shower curtain, so the water splashes into the main bathroom. For me, just too expensive for what you get, and it is too isolated.

The stonework in the rooms is very compelling. Rooms are clean and the staff is responsive. My biggest complaint was with the bed itself. It was hollowed out and lumpy. And if you can't sleep, the rest doesn't matter!

Beautiful Room

What a beautiful property! My husband loved the architecture and I loved the waterfall/rainfall shower! Our only complaints were that we ran out of Kleenex right away, almost as soon as we used them and the Heater/Cooler was not very responsive to our commands. The mattress was a little soft for our tastes, but I have a bad back and prefer a stiffer one. But all in all, it was a wonderful way to celebrate our 38th wedding anniversary. You felt like you were somewhere far away and exotic, not just 15 miles away from home in Lompoc!! Thanks for a great experience.
