Pictures of the Bacara Hotel and Spa...

For honeymooners, Bacara is paradise. The hotel opened last October and hosted seven weddings in its first month. One was in the ballroom, a space that seems the size of the Queen Mary. The reception was for a mere 250, but the bride had created stations all around the room—living rooms and cocktail areas, says Anne Luther, director of public relations. Another wedding, held on the lawn, featured a spun-glass arch. A favorite chapel-like spot is the rotunda, with its arched cathedral windows.

Santa Barbara Luxury!

Like an intimate Mediterranean village, Bacara sprawls over 78 beachfront acres, nestled between the Pacific Ocean and the Santa Ynez mountains. One, three and four-story villas made up of clusters of rooms are scattered among lush gardens. The stunning natural beauty of this location offers breathtaking views from every room. The serenity of the coastal setting is reflected in the use of rustic, natural materials and subtle earth tones throughout the resort.

Luxuriously appointed and finished with beautiful Spanish tile, each room features a patio or balcony, and approximately half of the rooms have either gas or wood-burning fireplaces. All are equipped with high speed internet access, multi-line phones, well-stocked mini bars, Frette linens and towels, soft Frette robes and luxurious slippers, irons, ironing boards, DVD players, and many other amenities.
