Read some of my Wine Country coverage here including the Top 10 Tasting Rooms in Lompoc here, The Best Wineries in Sta. Rita Hills here, and where to Eat and Drink in Los Olivos here.

The Landsby, Solvang California

One of the most charming boutique hotels I have stayed in in the Santa Barbara region is The Landsby. With a very modern, chic Scandinavian style decor and a great location in downtown Solvang, it is hard not to love this hotel. Moreover, the rooms are well decorated, chic, spacious, and best of all, guests enjoy a complimentary breakfast at the hotel restaurant.

The Ballard Inn

The Ballard Inn is a boutique hotel in Ballard California. It’s a mile or two from the charming Solvang California. This Spring I had the pleasure of staying at The Ballard Inn during a visit to the Santa Ynez region. I fell in love. It’s hard not to with a super chic, intimate setting. You feel as if you’re staying in someone’s home rather than in a hotel. Moreover, as if the charming boutique hotel isn’t a draw enough, they also have a fabulous restaurant, The Gathering Table. There, Hotel and Restaurant Owner, Chef Budi Kazali artistically melds Asian and French cuisine in a lovely setting. It features seasonal, locally sourced produce, seafood, and meats. 2436 Baseline Avenue, Ballard, California 93463
