Summary of reviews related to the 'Beachfront' categoryThe Ritz-Carlton Bacara, Santa Barbara is a beautiful property incredibly well situated on the cliffs above Goleta beach. With access to the beach being one of the best features, guests can enjoy the private beach designated just for them. Although some guests may find the beach dirty due to an oil spill, others love the empty beach and its easy accessibility. However, there are reports of tar on the beach and a lack of amenities such as beach chairs, umbrellas and towels. Additionally, some rooms offer a view of the oil rig and support ship moored off the beach, but regardless, the location and property are loved by many guests. The beach may not be perfect, but the kind hospitality and sensational location are sure to provide an unforgettable stay.
