Hotel Alhambra is a value property with 238 rooms and an Arab-inspired decor in Santa Susanna, within a short walk of the beach. There are an outdoor pool, a kids’ club, and nightly entertainment on an outdoor stage. Some of the common areas, including the lobby, have a dated feel (common areas were last renovated in 1999, rooms in 2011), and guests have to wait in a line at times to eat at the buffet. The hotel is open from Easter until the end of October. Guests may also want to look into the Aqua Hotel Aquamarina, a modern hotel with posh dining areas and a big spa.

Scene
Arab-themed hotel with outdoor pool, bar, and stage
Hotel Alhambra is written in an Arabic-inspired font above the entrance to the hotel, and features that include hanging lanterns and colorful patterned tiles give the space a Middle Eastern feel. The inside bar area has a blue-and-white striped ceiling, wooden chairs and tables, and wall cutouts that have a Moorish flair. Outside, there’s a pool area with a separate children’s pool and bright-yellow lounge chairs and umbrellas offering a space for guests to relax. An outdoor bar has a billiards table and covered seating under a white tent. There’s also a stage in the pool area where evening entertainment is held in good weather.
