Frequently asked questions

How much does a budget hotel in Santa Margarita cost?
Budget hotel prices in Santa Margarita vary, but you can find a great deal from CA $111 on Expedia. To find the cheapest budget hotels, be flexible with your dates—typically, off-peak and mid-week stays are cheaper. Stretch your budget further by looking for hotels with free breakfast, free parking or free airport shuttles. Sort your search results by "Price: low to high" to see our lowest rates.
Which area of Santa Margarita is best to stay in for cheap hotels?
For budget-conscious solo travellers visiting Santa Margarita, California, focusing on areas slightly outside the immediate town centre will typically yield the cheapest hotel options. While Santa Margarita itself is a small community without a vast array of hotels, looking at neighbouring towns or the fringes of the main village can be beneficial.

Solo travellers will find that motels and smaller inns along the main thoroughfares entering and exiting Santa Margarita often offer more competitive rates. These establishments, though sometimes a short drive from the village's heart, provide essential amenities at a lower cost. Given Santa Margarita's size, even these slightly peripheral locations are usually just a few minutes' drive from local attractions and dining spots.

Alternatively, consider staying in the nearby city of Atascadero, which is only a 10-15 minute drive from Santa Margarita. Atascadero offers a broader selection of budget-friendly motels and chain hotels.
How can I save on a budget hotel in Santa Margarita with Expedia?
There are plenty of ways to save on a budget hotel in Santa Margarita. Unlock our lowest prices by joining One Key™, Expedia's travel rewards program. It's free and easy to sign up, and you can access member perks too. Typically, booking in advance will help you save on your hotel booking. If you're feeling spontaneous, be sure to check for last-minute deals.
What free activities should we do in Santa Margarita?
Santa Margarita offers a surprising number of enjoyable free activities, great for budget-conscious solo travellers looking to explore the natural beauty and local charm of the area.

Start your exploration with an invigorating hike or a leisurely stroll through the Santa Margarita Lake Recreation Area. While there's a small fee for parking, accessing the trails themselves is free, offering stunning views of the lake and surrounding oak woodlands. It's a wonderful spot for birdwatching, and you might even spot some local wildlife.

For a taste of local history and a peaceful atmosphere, wander through the small downtown area. You can admire the historic buildings, pop into the local shops (window shopping is free.), and soak in the laid-back vibe. There are often community events or farmers' markets held in the town square, which are generally free to attend and offer a glimpse into local life.

Additionally, consider a scenic drive along the rural roads surrounding Santa Margarita. You'll pass by vineyards, ranches, and rolling hills, providing fantastic photo opportunities and a chance to simply enjoy the picturesque countryside without spending a penny.
Is it cheaper to book flights and a hotel in Santa Margarita as a package?
Booking a hotel and flight package on Expedia can be cheaper than booking flights and hotels separately. Bundling can lead to significant savings, especially for international travel or when booking well in advance. However, savings vary depending on factors like destination, travel dates, and availability, so it's wise to compare options. With access to over 300,000 hotels worldwide, Expedia makes it easy to build the perfect travel package.
Can I cancel my budget hotel reservation on Expedia?
Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline. This is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use Expedia's "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right budget hotel in Santa Margarita for you.
