Hi!
Years ago, we stayed at the Santa Ines bunkhouse, about a mile south of Catavina, and off the highway a bit. I preferred it to the Mision Hotel.
Does anyone know whether rooms are still offered at Santa Ines? We'll be on motorcycles without camping gear, and would like to sleep inside.
Next question: If there are rooms, how could I contact them to let them know we would like to stay?
Or: Anyone know of any other options close by? At one time, there was a hotel, painted pink, across the road and a bit north from the Mision Hotel.
Also, I remember some rooms behind the restaurant at Rancho San Ignacito about 10k south of Catavina.
Thanks very much for any recent info you may have!

Let us know about Santa Ynez. The bunk house is where the president of Mexico slept, 50 years ago. Matilda or her daughter run the place. Oscar passed
away. Paulina - 2-8-2022 at 02:36 PM
Elena la Loca was there recently visiting w Mathilda. She may know the status of the rooms. I'll send her a message and see if she can reply to this
thread.

Cabana's Linda, it won't kill you for a night and you can say you slept there!CharlieR - 2-8-2022 at 03:35 PM
“Cabanas Linda” right! I had forgotten the name. Yes, we stayed there once! I think we had to find and move some beds into the rooms. At
least the dogs were friendly. No cold beer. David K - 2-8-2022 at 03:35 PM

It had been witnessed that after guests left, the bed was remade with the same sheets. Maybe just put your sleeping bag on top and don't get under
those covers?!!bajatrailrider - 2-8-2022 at 06:14 PM

Who would sleep in the sheets? Not me! I would roll out my sleeping bag, sleep for 4-5 hours get up hope for hot water to make coffee. And hit the
road. bajatrailrider - 2-9-2022 at 12:22 PM

I'd spend a few $$more and get a room at the Hotel Mission Catavina or whatever they call the former La Pinta hotel.mtgoat666 - 2-10-2022 at 08:35 PM
