When is the best time to go to Las Positas?

The best time to go to Las Positas is during the spring (April to June) and autumn (September to November) months. These periods offer pleasant weather, with warm days and cool evenings, ideal for exploring the outdoor attractions. You'll find fewer crowds compared to the peak summer season, allowing for a more relaxed and enjoyable experience. The vineyards are particularly picturesque during these times, whether budding in spring or displaying their rich colours in autumn. For those interested in wine tasting and outdoor activities like hiking or cycling, spring provides lush landscapes and comfortable temperatures, making it easy to spend full days enjoying the region. Many local events and farmers' markets also begin to flourish in the spring. Autumn is another excellent choice, especially for food and wine enthusiasts. This is harvest season, so you'll often find special events at local vineyards and restaurants.

Can I cancel my hotel reservation on Expedia?

If you have a non-refundable booking, it might still be possible to receive a refund if you cancel it within 24 hours of booking. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use our "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right Las Positas hotel for you.

Top Las Positas Hotel Reviews

Vagabond Inn Santa Barbara - Carpinteria North

10/10 Excellent

"A/C was wonderful considering it was extremely hot out and they had a nice pool with lounge chairs. Our fridges mini freezer was not cold enough to keep our ice creams cold so we left them in the office for about 2 hours and I was super appreciative of them for that. Laundry on site as well. Only thing that made me uncomfortable was the amount of men hanging around the premises (they booked there). Anytime I had to go out and grab something from the car etc, I was always being stared at like fresh meat. Super uncomfortable and felt unsafe. Other than thatttt…. A nice, quite, cool/refreshing stay!"
