The Agave Inn has been a family owned and operated roadside motel since 1988. The property pays homage to Santa Barbara’s heavily influenced and deeply rooted Spanish and Mexican history. Taking inspiration from the golden age of Mexican cinema, each of the 13 rooms is unique and decorated with playful colors and a modern twist. 

Located on upper State Street, adjacent to Loreto Plaza where you will find many conveniences and great eateries, such as Gelson’s Market, Renaud’s Patisserie, Via Maestra Italian restaurant, and Harry’s Plaza Cafe. A few doors down, you’ll find sushi, Thai and Indian food.

The Agave is conveniently located 2 miles away from downtown Santa Barbara and 3.5 miles to Stearns Wharf. The Santa Barbara Golf course is a half mile away and Arroyo Burro Beach is a quick 10 minute drive.

All of our rooms include flat screen TVs, cable, WIFI, mini refrigerators, microwaves, air-conditioning/heating, hairdryers, irons and ironing boards. We also have kitchenette rooms available.

Rooms are non-smoking and no pets are allowed. 

As a member of the Shelter Social Club family our goal has always been to create an experience for our guests rather than just a place to sleep for the night. We look forward to hosting your stay in Santa Barbara!
