Play. A historic wonderland at this special time of year, Four Seasons Resort The Biltmore Santa Barbara has been creating cherished memories for generations. This festive season, the Resort is offering an array of holiday experiences to make the season merry and bright. In December, guests can sip on a hot toddy or spiced apple cider while “dashing” along scenic Butterfly Beach and through the quaint village of Montecito on a romantic and exhilarating “sleigh” ride in a horse-drawn carriage. At Saks Fifth Avenue in downtown Santa Barbara, exclusive VIP gift shopping offers an opportunity to check your list twice.
Children can take part in engaging experiences like complimentary cookie baking and decorating workshops led by Mrs. Claus, or creating their own ornaments in the Kids For All Seasons Program. On select evenings, they can gather around the cozy fireplace for storytime with Santa, complete with milk and cookies. On Christmas Eve, all children will receive a personalized stocking amenity – delivered to their doorstep by Santa’s elves – to ensure an extra joyful holiday experience.
Relax. Treat yourself to everything nice this holiday season in The Spa, with their “Sugar & Spice” menu of holiday treatments. Relieve holiday stress with a relaxing full-body organic Sugar Scrub featuring extracts of chamomile, myrrh and passionflower. The deeply moisturizing organic sunflower oil based scrub will leave your skin with a delightfully spicy scent (50 minutes, $160). Pamper yourself with a Spice Massage, which combines any full-body massage with a deliciously aromatic massage oil made exclusively for The Biltmore. An enticing blend of orange, patchouli, cinnamon, clove, nutmeg, pine and rosemary essential oils, it’s sure to spice up the season (50 minutes, $160 / 80 minutes, $225)!
