5 Things We Love About Dog-friendly The Leta Hotel by Hilton

1. Big Dogs Are Allowed
It can be difficult to find a great hotel stay that accepts big dogs like KB and Kenzo. The Leta Hotel welcomes dogs of all sizes.

During our stay, we met many friendly well-behaved dogs. None of them barked at KB and KENZO.

How Much Will You Pay in Pet Fees at a Hotel?

The most common question we get is “How much is the pet fee … especially we travel with big dogs?

Different hotels have their own pet policy in regards to pet fee. The pet fee can be per day and/or per pet. Most hotels also charges a one-time non-refundable pet fee which is used as a cleaning fee.

There are a few dog friendly hotels that welcome all pets with no additional fees, regardless of their size, breed, or weight. One of them is the Kimpton Hotel. Since, The Leta Hotel by Hilton was Kimpton Goodman Hotel, Hilton continued this policy; not to charge for pets stays.

2. Dog Relief Area
There’s a grassy area by the gated pool which is primary for guests to enjoy chill and play games. There are wooden benches and set-up games like cornholes and a giant 4 in a row connect.

There’s a sign that no dogs are allowed. Many dog owner guests were respectful of this rule. We were one of them and definitely understood this regulation from the hotel.

All dog owner guests were asked to use the designated dog relief area located at the end (corner) of the west parking lot. It was an open area with two big trees. The grassy area was enough space and it was clean (many responsible dog owner guests). The hotel provided a poop bag station and a nearby trash bin.

3. Minimalist Room Decor – No Carpet
The room is nicely nostalgic and earthly decorated with minimal essential furniture only; large bed, 2 nightstands with lamps, table, chair, long dresser and a floor lamp.

dog friendly The Leta Hotel Santa Barbara Goleta CA

It was bright and inviting when we entered the room. Both KB & KENZO did their doggy smell room inspections. It was clean and loved that there’s no carpeting. Definitely, a 4 Golden Paws rating when you travel with Golden Retrievers.

Our room was on the first floor facing the garden patio and gated pool area. Everyone was respectful and we had a quiet 3 nights / 4 day stay.

Take Note: The Leta Hotel is a two story hotel with 158 rooms. Other rooms on both the first and second floors are facing the parking lot.

4. Dine With Your Dog
The Leta Restaurant has a large outdoor dining area patio that allows you to dine with your dog and enjoy some California cuisine created using local ingredients.

During our stay, we enjoyed three early dinners at The Leta Restaurant outdoor dining area. We were impressed with the food (it was pleasantly unexpected from a hotel restaurant). The menu is simple but yummy. We ordered salads and flat breads – our favorites are the Strawberry Fields Salad and Kale Pesto Flat Bread.

dog friendly The Leta Restaurant Santa Barbara Goleta, CA

The servers were very nice and attentive. They were very caring and provided bowls of drinking water for KB & KENZO. The ambiance was wonderful and we had an enjoyable experience.

The Leta Restaurant is also a popular neighborhood restaurant. Many locals are dining in and The Leta Bar hosts fun events. During our stay, the entrance to the hotel was closed for a cornhole tournament. Many of the locals participated and it was fun to watch. Oh and some of them brought their furry friend.

5. Memorable Photo Spots
During this trip, we were busy with work plus dog show events and did not have a chance to do some sight-seeing. So glad for The Leta Hotel’s photo “insta-worthy” spots.

dog friendly instagram worthy photos The Leta Hotel Santa Barbara

The woody and airstream are the hotel’s main attraction by the hotel entrance to take photos. So many cool photos you can create with the lobby and registration chic decor. Also, there are two colorful mural walls by the entrances to the garden patio rooms and one fun mural wall by the Leta Bar.

4 Nearby Dog Friendly Attractions from The Leta Hotel

1. Goleta Beach County Park
is about 3.8 miles (8-10 min car ride) from The Leta Hotel. This park is located at 5990 Sandspit Road Goleta, CA. Dogs must be on leash.

2. Arroyo Burro Beach (Hendry’s Beach)
is about 7.6 miles (12-17 min car ride) from The Leta Hotel. This is a very popular off-leash dog beach located at 2981 Cliff Dr, Santa Barbara, CA

3. Chromatic Gate – next to Cabrillo Ball Park
is about 10 miles (15-20 min car ride) from The Leta Hotel. Designed by Herbert Bayer and located at 721 E Cabrillo Blvd Santa Barbara, CA. This iconic public art is 21 feet and weighing 12.5 tons. A fun place to take photos with your dog then cross the street and go for a beach walk on Cabrillo Path

4. Downtown Montecito – Coastal Village Road
is about 12 miles (15-20 min car ride) from The Leta Hotel. Our favorite place to dine. Most the restaurants are dog-friendly. Lucky’s and Los Arroyos are our favorites.

We did not have much time to visit these places. Fur sure, KB & KENZO would have enjoyed going to the Arroyo Burro Beach. When KB was a young pup and still figuring out his love of water, we took him to this beach several times and had so much fun.
We love visiting Santa Barbara. It’s our favorite weekend dog friendly getaway. As Hilton Honors members, we are glad to know many Hilton properties are now dog friendly and accepts big dogs. Definitely, we will plan another stay at The Leta Hotel which we are giving a rating of 4 Golden Paws (4/4)!

If you plan to visit Santa Barbara, pack your bags and your pup’s favorite toys and treats and head to The Leta Hotel Santa Barbara Goleta, CA Tapestry Collection by Hilton for an unforgettable funtastic vacation.

California Dog Travel Winter Tips


December is a magical time in California. A fun time to go on a road trip with your dog. You can go to the beach or the desert or the mountains. You can experience three different types of weather on the road.

It is important to remember that traveling with your dog requires additional care for the safety of everyone inside your vehicle.

This post is sponsored by Autotrader and Kelley Blue Book. We are helping to promote Holiday In Drive Winter Weather Travel Tips. All thoughts and opinions are my own, and Golden Woofs only shares information we feel is relevant to our readers.

Holiday Traditions With Your Dog

Do you have a holiday tradition with your dog? December is a fun-filled month where we travel to different cities/states to check out holiday decors and meet Santas and friends. Due to the California covid lockdown stay at home restrictions, we are modifying our holiday travels. We plan to explore locally, continue to give back, and support the neighborhood businesses.

However, we will continue our tradition of wearing humorous ugly holiday tops – just like Koru Bear’s dog Dad is wearing. So much fun opening the Autotrader’s holiday gift box. These gifts provided holiday cheer, particularly the limited-edition ugly sweater light-up face masks.

KORU BEAR and dog Dad had a fun time unboxing the Autotrader gift box which includes the limited-edition ugly sweater wheel cover and light-up mask, a hat, pair of gloves, insulated mug, and holiday lights necklace.

3 Important Tips To Keep Your Dog Safe in Car Rides

It is crucial to take precautions when your dog goes for a car ride. Here are three car ride safety tips for keeping your dog safe.

Tips keep your dog safe car rides

For photo purposes only, KORU BEAR is sitting on the driver seat to show-off the Autotrader fun limited-edition ugly sweater wheel cover.

1. Your dog should sit in the back seat
It is not advisable to have your dog in the front passenger seat of your car. The back seat is the safest place for your dog to sit.

2. Properly secure your dog
An unrestrained dog can cause distraction and interfere with your driving. The safest way for your dog to ride in the car is by securing him/her in a crate or with a car safety harness and/or a dog seatbelt.

How do we secure KORU BEAR safely in the car? He is a big 90+lbs dog and comfortable wearing a crash-tested dog car harness.

3. Don’t allow your dog to put his/her head out the window of your car
It may be fun to watch your dog, but while your vehicle is moving, it is absolutely not safe to let your dog ride with his/her head out the window (even though your dog is restrained in the car). You are putting your dog’s eyesight, ears, and life in danger when you allow him/her to stick his/her head out of the window while you drive.

Autotrader Kelly Blue Book Winter Tips

For photo purposes only and when the car is on a stop, we unbuckle him and allow him to put his head out of the window.

We are hoping to travel to Big Bear. KORU BEAR has not experienced snow, and it will be fun to visit Big Bear for the day. Hopefully, when the covid stay-at-home restrictions are lifted from traveling outside our community, we can visit Big Bear. We (specifically KB’s main chauffeur, dog Dad) are prepared and keep these five winter driving tips in mind when traveling to the California mountains.

Dog Travel Car Rides Winter Tips

5 Tips for Winter Driving Condition in the California Mountains

1. Stay Home
Make sure to check the weather condition frequently. On Autotrader Holiday In Drive tips for safe winter driving, when the weather is dangerous to drive, stay home.

2. Carry Tire Chains
Winter can be a beautiful time of year in the California mountains. However, it can also bring a variety of unpleasant driving conditions to the roadways. Make sure you have chains for your car.

3. Keep Fuel Tank Full
At all times, make sure to have a full tank of gas.
When your tank is half empty, immediately fill it up.
During snow traffic and when you need to change routes due to a bad snowstorm, your vehicle is well-prepared.

4. Winter Driving Tips
a) Allow plenty of time to arrive at your final destination. Your travel time might take longer due to storm conditions or icy roads.
b) At all times, keep your seat belt buckled.
c) Drive cautiously, especially when black ice is nearly invisible.
d) Be observant; slow down and reduce your driving speed. Keep a constant watch for other vehicles. Leave more distance between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead.
e) Turn off your cruise control. You need to be able to control your car when driving in snow or wet road conditions.
f) Give snowplows room to work and be very cognizant of what they are doing on the road.

5. Carry Emergency Supplies
Winter weather can be unpredictable. Always be prepared by having an emergency kit in your car. If you find yourself stranded during a snowstorm, other items that may be of use are as follows: flashlight, blanket, extra clothing, towel, gloves, ice scraper, shovel, spare key, and sand/kitty litter.
If you are traveling with your dog, make sure you have a pet emergency first aid kit, extra food, and winter outdoor gear. We want to be prepared at all times; we keep KORU BEAR’s traveling bag in the truck.

Dog Travel Car Essentials for a Safe and Happy Trip

Seat Protector
A dog car seat cover is a must-have car essential especially if you have a big dog that sheds a lot. It also helps to keep your car seats clean from dirt and muddy paws. We opt for a hammock style car seat cover.

2
Safety Restraint
To ensure Koru Bear’s safety, we use a travel harness. It is important to keep him secure and to reduce the potential for driving distractions. Also, a safety restraint can help keep him safe if an accident occurs.

3
Travel Dog Mat + Towels (Blanket)
For extra comfort, we always bring a multi-purpose travel mat and towels, which are especially handy when KORU BEAR’s paws get wet and muddy.

Autotrader Dog Travel Car Essentials

To ensure that we always have KORU BEAR’s travel car essentials, we pack all of his dog care items in a travel bag. It’s easy to carry, especially if we use a different vehicle on our trip.

4
Dog First Aid Kit
We are always prepared as you never know when something unfortunate can happen. Having the basic supplies in KORU BEAR’s first aid kit has come in handy on our previous travels. We also include his veterinarian information in the kit.

5
Waste Bags
Be a responsible dog owner, bring poop bags and scoop that poop!

6
Treats / Food
Treating Koru Bear with his favorite treats during car rides helps him settle down. For longer trips, we always pack his food and make sure to stay on his regular diet to avoid an upset stomach or allergies.

7
Water / Portable Bowls
We make sure to keep a water bottle handy for Koru Bear. For long car rides, we offer water at least every couple of hours to prevent dehydration.

8
Dog Wipes / Paw Sanitizers
Pet-friendly wipes/spray are must-have on Koru Bear’s car rides and dog travel. It is important to keep him smelling good and fresh. Keeping his paws clean alleviates any licking or allergy reactions.

9
Extra Harness / Leash / Collar + ID Tag
It’s handy that Koru Bear’s harness is versatile; it’s an everyday harness and a car safety restraint. However, you never know when his harness, leash, or collar might break or get lost, so having an extra in the event of an emergency is essential.

10
Toys
Bringing one of Koru Bear’s favorite stuffed toys to cuddle during the car ride helps him settle down. A stuffie toy also provides him comfort especially if he is anxious about our final destination. We always pack a fetch toy to use on our stops where we engage in fetch play with Koru Bear to help him regain his energy.

If you love plants specifically cacti and desert plants, visit the Moorten Botanical Garden and Cactarium; 1-acre family-owned botanical garden.

Huntington Beach, CA
One of our favorite SoCal dog-friendly destinations is visiting Huntington Beach aka Surf City USA. Lots of dogs visit Huntington Beach daily.
