Amenities Available on our 20 Passenger Minibuses in Santa Maria
Wi-Fi
Stay connected on the road with 4G/5G Wi-Fi available on all 20-passenger minibuses, perfect for checking email, streaming music, or sharing photos while traveling between Santa Maria and destinations like UCSB or downtown San Luis Obispo.
Onboard Restrooms
Many of our 20-passenger minibus models can be equipped with an onboard restroom, making them ideal for longer trips out of Santa Maria—such as wine tours to Paso Robles, corporate shuttles to Santa Barbara, or sports travel up Highway 101—by reducing unscheduled bathroom breaks and keeping the schedule on track.
Onboard TVs
Flat-screen monitors are available throughout the cabin, allowing passengers to watch DVDs, connect a laptop via HDMI for presentations, or display team videos during longer trips to away games or corporate events outside Santa Maria.
Power Outlets
Every minibus comes equipped with multiple 110V power outlets and USB ports throughout the cabin, so passengers can keep phones, tablets, and laptops fully charged during the entire trip—essential for business travelers heading to meetings or students on academic outings.
Climate Control with Personal Air Vents
Advanced climate control systems ensure the cabin stays comfortable year-round, with powerful air conditioning for hot Central Coast summers and efficient heating for cooler evenings; individual air vents allow each passenger to adjust airflow to their personal preference.
Leather Seating
High-back, reclining seats upholstered in premium leatherette provide both comfort and support, making it easy to relax or catch up on work while on the move; armrests and adjustable headrests add to the ergonomic design.
Overhead & Undercarriage Storage
Carry-on bags, backpacks, and jackets can be stored in spacious overhead racks inside the minibus, while larger items such as luggage, sports equipment, or presentation materials can be placed in exterior undercarriage bays, keeping the aisle clear and the cabin organized.
