We visited the Ostrich Farm ($7 entrance, $1 to feed them), they have a nice gift shop too. AJ's is a nice restaurant for a large portions, down home cooked meal. For quilters, there is a fun quilt store that I enjoy when in Buellton. It's just minutes from Solvang where there is nice shopping, and great pastries, and the Elverhøj Museum of History & Art that is interesting. Of course, there are many places to try wines.

Buellton is the perfect place to explore the San Ynez Valley. Incredibly, there are several towns, just a few minutes apart, with distinctly different vibes. There are dozens of wineries just minutes apart. I wish I had time to name each town, the restaurants, wineries and experiences I had in a too short amount of time, but trust me! I wish I’d stayed longer .

Buellton tends to be overlooked for Solvang but Solvang hotel prices are vastly higher and is only about a 10-minute drive from Buellton. You've still got easy access to restaurants in both Buellton and Solvang, the shops in Solvang, and gas stations + a major grocery store in Buellton. Why pay higher prices for Solvang when you can stay at nice places in Buellton?

There's not a ton to do within Bueltton itself but it's a great central point to stay so you can take day trips to other nearby spots. There are plenty of tasty restaurants plus a couple of markets so food options even for finicky eaters or those with allergies can still find something. If anything, avoid the middle to end of summer: too freaking hot and too many tourists.
Food options within Buellton that I've personally eaten at, recommend, and have online menus to check out before you go: Pea Soup Andersons, Ellen's Pancake House, Eddie's Grill, & Rudy's Mexican Restaurant (all within a 2-minute radius off the 101 highway).

The room was large with a small refrigerator and microwave and a small coffee maker.
When arriving to the room the air conditioner was not working. Problem was quickly solved, after we called the desk. :) This hotel has no elevators so if you have trouble taking a suitcase up approximately 15 or more steps you should be aware of this.
The sliding door in our room opened and you had a view of the pool. You could hear people enjoying the pool. We did leave the door open (it had a screen (hole in it) but kept it open because of the nice breeze and it got quite cool out.
I cannot comment on the breakfast because we left early. The breakfast was served at the Gazebo by the pool outside.
The airstream was adorable and it was great having access to a gas grill with sink for cooking. The resort has a lot of amenities (we didn't use any of them, but my parents did and enjoyed the hot tub and pool). The bed was comfy and overall it was a great stay for us and our pup. The value for the area was excellent, this is close to the highway right near downtown Buellton.
Good location, lots of nearby restaurants and shops, ample parking. Very friendly and helpful staff on 24 hour reception desk - I was given some good recommendations for nearby wineries to visit, where to have dinner and they kindly rang my next hotel for me as I was having issues contacting them.
Great and reasonable choice in the middle of Buellton. Clean room and friendly staff. Ample parking. Very good base to go and explore this delightful part of California! Around 10 mins walk from the Hitching Post II, as per the Sideways film!
I LOVED my stay here at Motel 6 in Buellton! Everything worked well, the bed was comfortable, complimentary coffee delicious, great space to work, gorgeous mountain views, and plenty of places to visit and eat within walking distance.
Room was super clean and well stocked with plenty of towels and bathroom supplies. Been to many hotels before and this one was the best so far. Highly recommend. Plus it had a very nice clean smell to the room too.
This was a great hotel close to Solvang and surrounding areas. It was clean and new. We enjoyed the outdoor fire pits at night! It also had an excellent hot breakfast with a good variety of foods to chose from.
Nice location in Buellton and great accommodations for those who do not have an RV - the Surf Cabin is very comfortable and cozy- the large pass through window from Kitchen to front porch a bonus!
quality of room, charm of the property, super comfy bed, good on site bar and it was in the Sideways movie! close proximity to tasting rooms in Buellton and Solvang.
