Wedged between East Camino Cielo Road to the North and Ortega Ridge Road to the East, Montecito possesses some of Santa Barbara’s grandest and most historic estates. If you don’t already call Montecito home and are planning a visit, you will find no shortage of world class hotels. Between the Montecito Inn, the Four Seasons Biltmore, the San Ysidro Ranch, and the Coast Village Inn there is something for everyone. Montecito’s close ties to Hollywood date back as early as 1912, when Flying A Studios first set up shop in Santa Barbara on West Mission Street. The Hollywood connection in Montecito remains strong to this day, proving to be a desire-able weekend getaway for industry heads and actors alike.
