There are some decent boutique hotels across from the beach along Cabrillo Blvd, you can walk to State Street, the Funk Zone (breweries and wineries), the Wharf, etc. Depends on how close you want to be to the action. There are some great beaches in the Goleta area, coupled with a good walk/hike. Our local wine country is a nice day trip. Yep, gonna be $$$$ that weekend.
