Simpson House Inn
Steep in Leisure
Afternoon Tea has long been a tradition at Simpson House. This season, we’ve given it a fresh new chapter.
Hidden behind the hedges and surrounded by an acre of gardens, Steep in Leisure pairs your stay with our reimagined Afternoon Tea, featuring a new menu from Michelin recognized Chef Julian Martinez and beautiful new details at the table. Find your seat on the redwood wraparound deck or brick patio beneath the trees and settle in for an afternoon in the garden.
Chocolate covered strawberries will be waiting in your room on arrival.
Package Rate: $95 per guest, each day of your stay · Tax & gratuity included
Restrictions: Served daily, 1:00 to 4:00pm on the veranda. Book at least 24 hours before arrival. Steep in Leisure is available at the Simpson House Inn only, for single-room reservations, and cannot be combined with other promotions, discounts, or packages. Not available on full home buyout dates.
About the Destination
Nestled between the Santa Ynez Mountains and the Pacific Ocean, Santa Barbara blends Mediterranean-inspired elegance with California’s laid-back coastal spirit. Known as the American Riviera, the city charms with whitewashed Spanish Colonial architecture, red-tile roofs, palm-lined beaches, and a thriving food, wine, and arts scene. Just 90 miles north of Los Angeles, it feels worlds away from the bustle of the city.
Special Offers + Experiences
Stay three nights, the fourth is on us. Some places invite you to slow down. At Simpson House Inn, mornings begin with breakfast in the gardens, afternoons are yours to explore Santa Barbara, and evenings offer a chance to unwind and enjoy the quiet charm of the property. With an extra night, there’s even more time to settle in and savor the experience. A little more time to enjoy it all.
