Location: Santa Barbara

Nestled between Los Angeles and San Francisco, Santa Barbara is one of the most beautiful beach communities on California's coastline. The town offers temperate climates year-round, lush landscapes and an abundance of natural beauty, with sophisticated Spanish and Mediterranean style architecture.

Stroll through downtown State Street for everything from restaurants and theaters to luxury boutique shopping and mom-and-pop specialty stores. Visit the Santa Ynez valley for a day of wine tasting, or explore the land and sea by hiking, surfing or sailing. Take each day at your own pace and enjoy all that Santa Barbara has to offer:

SNIP.  Make an appointment for a transformative new look with the world-renowned hairstylist-to-the-stars José Eber, who has debuted his newest salon inside the Biltmore Santa Barbara, a Four Seasons resort.

SHOP.  Los Angeles design icon Jenni Kayne has opened her first lifestyle boutique in Montecito, CA, Jenni Kayne Home, which carries everything from Caleb Simon ceramics to Alma Allen tabletop linens.

SIP.  Savor wines from Santa Barbara to Burgundy at Les Marchands Wine Bar & Merchant. Pick a bottle up to go, or sit back and relax with a glass, accompanied by a tasty selection of small plates.

EXPLORE.  Only in Santa Barbara do African lions look out onto Pacific panoramas. The felines are just a few of the 600 species at the city’s jewel box of a zoo.

SEE.  Grab tickets to an upcoming show, from world-class ballet to performances by the Santa Barbara Symphony, at the restored Granada Theatre.
