Although we usually have a pleasant shopping experience, this time it was very lackluster. The store wasn't busy at all. There were maybe four or five other people in the store besides us. NOT one person greeted us when we walked into the main area of the store and yet there were THREE employees all behind the counter just socializing with one another. The one time any of the four of us were even acknowledged by an employee was when my husband had merchandise in his hands. We're going to skip this place next time and spend our money supporting other businesses.

I had the pleasure of being the first customer at Zoe Bikini's new location at 27 East Victoria,…read moreSuite B. Zoe is a Santa Barbara local and has been a designer for years. She just moved from her location on 429 State Street for 4.5 years. She plans to concentrate on her trademark design (a multi-colored heart) which is on caps, sweatshirts, and tank tops. Each item is an original and carefully made. She also has a nice selection of jewelry. I ended up buying a cute bikini off of her sale rack, but I will be back to get a trucker hat soon! Her hours are Wednesday- Friday 1-5 pm but people are encouraged to call to schedule a time outside of those hours.

This place is perfect for getting gifts and great beach items and decor. You will definitely walk out with a tasteful selection if you let Fabian guide your hand. I have the picnic blanket and a couple of towels and I use them all the time. My favorite beach towels hands down. There is also a great bodega next door to get some snacks. Go check it out and get a towel/blanket!

They had a sale basket of towels and luckily I found one for only $15! They also offer jewelry, candles, hats, clothing, tote bags and other cute items.

Customer service was helpful and friendly. Looking forward to coming back!

There's only one fitting room opens and the employees lock it up after every customer uses it, so…read moreif you want to use it multiple times or use it after somebody gets out, you would have to find someone to unlock it tor you. If you have a stealing problem then just have someone guarding the fitting room instead of constantly locking it. Genuinely such a hassle and makes me not wanna shop there anymore.

PacSun has always been one of my families favorite stores to shop. It's too bad the caliber of…read morecustomer service has dropped below par. Only one of the four dressing rooms were available. One was "out of order" due to light fixtures, one was clearly usable but "closed" for no apparent reason and one was reserved for handicap (which is understandable). When I asked the retail agents to reconsider opening the one that seemed useable I was met with a firm "no". Still for no good reason other than "it's closed". At one point there were about 6-8 potential paying customers waiting to try on clothes. Furthermore, there were about 4-5 agents behind the counter "working" one sitting on top of the counter. PacSun you can do better than this!

For years, I have been a huge fan and customer of Kariella store and make several trips each year…read moreto Ojai to purchase new outfits from them. Their clothing is gorgeous, high quality, and unique. I was elated when I saw they had opened a store on State Street in Santa Barbara. My first visit was to buy a gift for a friend (she loved a pair of wide leg linen pants I had and I wanted to get her something similar). I found the item I was looking for and asked the cashier what the return policy was. I never asked before because when buying for myself, I make sure I 100% want the item and it fits perfectly, as I hate to return stuff. I was told I could get my money back if I returned it within 14 days with receipt. After that, it was store credit only. The pants did not fit my friend, so I went to return them. I was told I could only get store credit. I phoned the Ojai store and explained what happened, and they allowed the return for cash. I will not go into detail as to how I got treated when I returned the pants once again to store manager Andrea. It was the most obnoxious, ungracious way to treat a great customer. So for all of you who go shop at Kariella and I highly recommend the store, just avoid dragon Andrea. You can't miss her : hair uncombed, tattoos all over, bare stomach hanging over clothing that is 2 sizes too small for her weight, looking like she just came rolling in from having spent a night in a biker's bar. The other girls who work at Kariella are super friendly and nice, just like the people in the Ojai store. 10 stars for Kariella! -100 stars for Andrea!

Today I was visiting Summerland with my husband and dropped into a the Heidi Merrill store. I love…read moreHeidi Merrick clothing and I was looking forward to picking up some new pieces for myself and my daughters. I was in the store about 15 minutes and was completely ignored. No hello, no acknowledgement whatsoever. A group of women were in there ooohing and ahhing over their pal in a lovely orange dress. The saleswoman seemed perfectly happy to help them but utterly ignored me. I actually took another lap around the store, hoping that someone would at least take notice but nope! So I left. I still think Heidi Merrick clothing is lovely, but this experience definitely changed my desire to give the company my business.

I contacted them and they immediately took action, found the large I needed in a sister store and sent them out same day. It sucks that one bad review can shape a small business and take away from its customer service. My experience, while frustrating at first, turned into victory and I couldn't be happier with the help that I received. Additionally, my bathing suit is so cute and the quality is exceptional. I will absolutely shop here again and just wanted to praise the people that work there and give them a quality review Thank you for Your service!
