The Ballard Inn is Kirkwood Collection's Third Property in Santa Barbara County.
Kirkwood Collection, a luxury hotel brand renowned for its portfolio of historic boutique hotels in iconic California destinations, is thrilled to announce the newest addition to its collection: The Ballard Inn. This property marks Kirkwood's first venture into the Santa Ynez Valley, a picturesque region in the heart of Santa Barbara Wine Country celebrated for its natural beauty, rich history, and world-class wines. The Ballard Inn joins Kirkwood's existing boutique properties in Santa Barbara, Hideaway Santa Barbara, and Blue Sands Inn, further expanding their presence in the region.
The Ballard Inn, nestled in the heart of Ballard, California—the smallest and oldest community in the Santa Ynez Valley—currently offers 15 luxurious rooms featuring balconies, patios, and fireplaces. Recently refurbished, this boutique bed and breakfast pays homage to the rich heritage of the region. Kirkwood Collection plans to expand the room count to 19 in the future and is exploring food and beverage options for the on-site restaurant. In keeping with Kirkwood Collection's high standards, guests will enjoy a champagne reception upon arrival, a daily wine and cheese happy hour, and the signature Kirkwood breakfast the brand is renowned for.
