About this property
The Marlowe Seaside Inn - Vintage Luxury at the Beach
The Marlowe, a vintage seaside inn nestled two blocks from the beach, faces the historic train station in the heart of Santa Barbara. Inside, authentic vintage furnishings, thoughtfully restored with an eco-friendly touch, pair perfectly with new luxury sheets, towels, bathrobes, and toiletries—blending past and present into the ideal Santa Barbara getaway. The soft glow of period lamps casts long shadows, while the ocean breeze drifts through open windows. Just a short walk from the pier, downtown shops, and restaurants, The Marlowe invites you to experience old Santa Barbara, where sustainability meets timeless charm. Each of our four suites features a full kitchen, smart locks, Roku smart TVs, and blazing fast 400mbps WiFi for ultimate convenience.
