Welcome to the Alamo Motel
– Your Laid-Back Escape in Los Alamos
Tucked away in the charming town of Los Alamos, just 2.5 hours north of Los Angeles, the Alamo Motel offers a relaxing retreat in the heart of Santa Ynez wine country. Surrounded by shady oaks, open skies, and rolling vineyards, our ranch-style getaway blends vintage charm with modern touches.
Evenings here are magical. Sip local wines by the fire pit, hosted by our friends at Municipal Wines. Lounge on the lawn, swing beneath the trees, or enjoy a lazy picnic with friends. This is your time to unwind.
Just steps from our door, the town of Los Alamos is full of character. Explore antique shops, slow-food spots, and small-town hospitality—all within three walkable blocks. This hidden gem boasts a rich past too—Johnny Cash once played the old 1820s saloon, and the town was the backdrop for Paul McCartney and Michael Jackson’s “Say, Say, Say” video.
We designed the Alamo Motel to reflect the spirit of the land—minimal yet full of texture, inspired by Georgia O’Keeffe’s home in Abiquiú. Each room features custom plywood furnishings by Shaun Wallace of Gopher Wood Design, plus local art by Meagan Donegan celebrating the area’s farming roots. Elegant lighting from Atelier De Troupe adds a soft, stylish glow.
Introducing Bar Alamo!
We’re bringing our very own beer and wine bar to life right here on the property. While we’re still getting settled in, we have a minimal but mighty selection of drinks waiting for you.
Ready to slow down and soak it all in? The Alamo Motel is your peaceful place to do just that.
