Here's Our Favorite Hotels in Ventura

DOWNTOWN

Bella Maggiore Inn

Duly recognized as one of “the Best of the West” for small inns, the Bella Maggiore sets the stage for your romantic getaway with “old world” flair. The charming and European-esque décor create a cozy atmosphere throughout the Inn. On cold days, the large hearth in the lobby invites you to snuggle up by the fire... Read more

HARBOR VILLAGE

Holiday Inn Express Hotel and Suites at Ventura Harbor

Take the first right from the entrance of Harbor Village to find The Holiday Inn Express. The only hotel with a “close up” view of the Ventura Harbor. The suites on the 1st floor offer the most dramatic view with floor-to-ceiling windows. A continental breakfast is served each morning. Pool, hot tub and tennis courts are accessible via a connection bridge to the Four Points by Sheraton Hotel. The location, ample amenities and the reasonable rates (even for the suites) make this hotel our top pick for a harbor getaway. A walking and bike path connects this hotel to the village (a good starting point for a scenic bike ride up the coast).

Four Points Sheraton

A good choice if you are planning to stay a week or longer since this hotel offers laundry facilities, a gym, pool and hot tub. Some rooms overlook the harbor, though you have to see past the parking lot first. Alexander’s Restaurant and Lounge is located on the first floor and their Sunday Brunch brings out the locals. Considering the amenities and location, their rates are reasonable. From here you can also catch the shuttle to downtown Ventura.

Boatel B&B on the Water

Looking for something out of the ordinary? Why not retreat on one of California’s few dockside bed & breakfasts! The B&B offers three options. The Villita, a classic 1936 gem, takes you back to the days of old Hollywood. The Dragon Lady, an authentic Hong Kong Pirate Junk boat, makes a fun family choice. Two-Tenths, a no-frills option, is the perfect choice for those departing early on fishing, diving or island excursions. The rates include a $25.00 breakfast certificate at the Harbor’s La Petite Cafe and a free evening beverage. Bon Voyage!
