OUR STORY

More Than a Hotel. A Home Base for Disovering Santa Barbara

Housed in a historic 1928 building in the heart of Santa Barbara's vibrant Funk Zone, Riviera Beach House blends laid-back California beach culture with the timeless allure of the world's great rivieras. Thoughtfully designed spaces, local artwork, and warm hospitality create a welcoming retreat where every stay feels personal.

More than just a place to sleep, Riviera Beach House is your home base for discovering the American Riviera. Walk to the beach, explore Stearns Wharf, sip your way through the Funk Zone, browse local galleries, or simply slow down and embrace the rhythm of coastal living.
