For decades, owners and guests of Channel Island Shores have returned to enjoy a relaxing, resort-like experience in one of the most beautiful beach towns in the country. Here are a few reviews from our guests.

We booked this for a one room with pullout couch bed. This room though 1536 is the one with the gorgeous balcony View and a view out the kitchen window. They provided a hot tub but it was not warm or ready on our first day and we only stayed for two nights but luckily got to use it on our last night. Location wise this is a five-star place but as far as the rest of it goes not so much I called in advance to see what they provided and they said they provided Beach items but they do not provide beach towels when we got there even though it's right at the beach so if you're coming here please pack those. I went to go use the coffee machine and grab a coffee cup and all the coffee cups were filthy. The blender was filthy, the shower head needs cleaning. Etc our room was definitely not well maintained as far as cleanliness goes and that was disgusting that I had to clean it up in order to use it now that's just below par and definitely not good on the sanitary end. That made me really wonder if the sheets were ever changed but I didn't have enough time to focus on that because I was busy during my 48 hours stay. The reviews are about accurate this place is not well cut as far as service goes or cleanliness but the location is just amazing and you can just walk right to the beach in less than 5 minutes and the view from the balcony is amazing so would I stay here again absolutely yes I would just have hope that they would get better at cleanliness.

Extremely friendly and helpful staff, clean units, quiet area, steps from a mostly empty I'm beach and an easy drive to Santa Barbara, Solvang and San Yisidro Ranch. Also hiking trails within a short drive. A private hot tub for each unit is added amenity.

Unhappy with how the rooms where clean but believe me I seen worst. Just a few oversight but nothing to complain about to the office.
