Century-Old Church Reborn as Boutique Hotel

from Santa Barbara News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

A century-old Santa Barbara church just got a stunning makeover—now it’s Casa Iglesia, a 37-unit boutique hotel that honors its historic soul while embracing modern luxury. With contactless check-in, a rooftop atrium filled with palm trees and water features, and Spanish-Moroccan design touches, the space feels like a hidden oasis. The owners preserved the original architecture, even adding floors inside the sanctuary and attic, and went all-in on eco-friendly tech like solar power. Built in 1925 and long abandoned, this transformation proves that old buildings can be reborn with style, soul, and a whole lot of wow.
