The inn at zaca creek is very beautiful inside and out. We had a wonderful stay. Lights have dimmers to make a more comfortable ambiance. The king size bed was very comfortable. You can change the AC temp setting to your desired temp for a good night's rest. The rooms are already on the cooler side, you can turn off the AC later and the room will feel cool for a very long time. It feels very comfortable and private. It was perfect for our weekend getaway and wine tasting in Los olivos and Santa ynez.

This is one of the more unique places we've stayed in. Restaurant is a few steps from the rooms and the food is excellent. Staff was very accommodating. We'll here again for sure.

Everything is very good, if not quite outstanding. Seating in rooms could be more comfortable. Good burgers at the tavern. This is one of the better options in the area if you can get a decent rate. I would come back.

Great, if you are a grizzly bear.
Probably my bad for not believing the photos. The room is truly a cave, almost to the point of giving me a claustrophobia. This is just a weird place. It’s essentially a decorated motor lodge. I think it would be good if you plan to eat at the restaurant, which we did not. The pool is closed for the winter, even though it’s late April. The bed is relatively uncomfortable, too soft. They clearly got the memo on providing amenities for a five-star room. There is an nespresso machine, extra razors, toothbrushes, etc., but no lotion? The shower is weird, because you essentially step into a giant corner bathtub, which is a big step. No door or shower curtain, so the water splashes into the main bathroom. For me, just too expensive for what you get, and it is too isolated.

The stonework in the rooms is very compelling. Rooms are clean and the staff is responsive. My biggest complaint was with the bed itself. It was hollowed out and lumpy. And if you can't sleep, the rest doesn't matter!

Beautiful Room
What a beautiful property! My husband loved the architecture and I loved the waterfall/rainfall shower! Our only complaints were that we ran out of Kleenex right away, almost as soon as we used them and the Heater/Cooler was not very responsive to our commands. The mattress was a little soft for our tastes, but I have a bad back and prefer a stiffer one. But all in all, it was a wonderful way to celebrate our 38th wedding anniversary. You felt like you were somewhere far away and exotic, not just 15 miles away from home in Lompoc!! Thanks for a great experience.

The Inn at Zaca Creek is a boutique property that has gorgeous, intimate rooms that are unique with the natural stone walls. Beautiful property with an onsite restaurant that rivals any foodies fantasy. The staff are friendly, courteous and fit their roles perfectly. You could transplant Zaca Creek Inn & Tavern over to Napa and it would thrive. We can’t wait to return

Welcoming, comfortable, & excellent tavern
Quaint roadside tavern/inn with exceptional service and food. The room was very comfortable, felt private and attention was given to making sure we had everything we needed. Like days forgotten, I loved that they called us the day of check in to welcome us, provide check in information, and see if there was anything special we needed. It reminded us of an old family run country roadside inn and tavern except the service, food, & beer/wine selection were all 5-star. We would go back to the Inn at Zaca in a second.
