This fabled venue has enjoyed a rich and varied history. Originally the site of two locomotive roundhouses erected in 1911. The idea of transforming the site into a luxury resort was conceived by actor Fess Parker, best known for his Disney work. His family tend to the property to this day. Opening its doors in 1986, the venue was renovated and rebranded as an esteemed Hilton Resort in 2018. Now a staple of Santa Barbara’s hospitality scene, this illustrious venue maintains its reputation as one of California's most sought-after destinations. We welcome you and yours!
