Nestled between Pismo Beach and the charming Dutch town of Solvang, the Fairfield by Marriott Santa Maria offers a beautiful setting in Santa Maria. While the nearby vineyards at Cottonwood Canyon and the fairways of Rancho Maria Golf Course are breathtaking, our hotel’s location offers more than proximity to great views. We’re less than 5-miles from the Santa Maria Airport Business Park, which features major companies like Coca-Cola, The Okonite Company, Central Coast Jet Center and Mafi-Trench.
