Innen-Außen-Leben genießen, voll ausgestattete Küchen und zu Fuß zum Strand und State St.

The Marlowe Villa is a historic duplex that feels like your own private beach house in the heart of Santa Barbara. Just two blocks from West Beach and set slightly farther from the train station than the main Marlowe Seaside Inn, the Annex offers a quieter, more private retreat while still keeping you close to the city’s vibrant waterfront and downtown.

Inside, you’ll find two distinct yet complementary suites that can be enjoyed separately or together. On the ground floor, the Family Suite provides a true home-away-from-home, with a king bedroom, cozy living area with twin bunk beds, a full kitchen, dining room, and a private, enclosed garden patio—perfect for cooking meals, gathering as a family, or letting little ones play in the sunshine. Upstairs, the Terrace Suite has the feeling of a breezy beach bungalow, with a plush king bed, vintage record player, and recliners for relaxing evenings, plus a terrace with sweeping mountain views that’s ideal for enjoying a glass of wine as the sun sets.

Together, the two suites create a versatile coastal escape: two kitchens, two spacious living areas, and private outdoor spaces, all within one historic building. Whether you’re a large family wanting room to spread out, two couples traveling together, or a group of friends seeking a stylish seaside base, the Marlowe Villa offers the privacy of separate suites with the comfort of sharing one beautifully restored space. Steps from the harbor, Stearns Wharf, and downtown’s shops and restaurants, the Annex is a true Santa Barbara gem—quiet, private, and filled with vintage soul and modern comfort.
As a courtesy to our other guests, many of whom come to Santa Barbara to hike, surf or cycle early in the morning and wish to go to bed early, please no loud noise after 10pm.
