Property details

With cozy, quiet ambiance and an address in the lap of luxury in Montecito, Coral Casita offers a home base to enjoy the finer things in life. And with an83, it's going to be a quality experience. The studio is a detached guest house behind a well-established vacation rental, Coral Cottage, offering privacy and solitude. If looking for accommodations for a larger group, consider booking both! The mood here is bright and cheerful making it perfect for a quick weekend getaway, an extended sabbatical, or snowbirds seeking to escape harsh winters elsewhere. The interior feels spacious from the high beam ceiling, and features a queen-size bed, a sofa sleeper, television, and a full bathroom with shower. An efficient kitchen is fully stocked, even for the long-term guest, with everything needed to prepare a lovely meal or a quick beach picnic. Dine indoors at a vintage oak table in front of the sliding door or head outside to the fully-enclosed entry patio with a dining table that seats six, a barbecue, and bistro lights adding the final touch of ambiance after dark. For added convenience, there is also in-house laundry and off-street parking When time to step out there is so much within walking distance. Coast Village Road is right up the street for world-class shopping. On Friday's be sure to stop by the Farmer's Market for organic ingredients and inspiration. Don't feel like cooking? No worries! There are a number of excellent local eateries a few minutes walk away. Try Honor Bar, Oliver's, or Local for casual fare. Or dress up and head to Stonehouse Restaurant at San Ysidro Ranch or Carusos's at The Rosewood Miramar for a night to remember. The climate here is ideal nearly year-round. With Butterfly and Miramar Beaches only a couple of blocks away, coastal playgrounds are within minutes of this sweet spot in the Lower Village of Montecito. As is typical with many Santa Barbara homes, this property does not have AC. Open windows and the use of fans allow ocean breezes in to keep the house cool during hot summer months. And don't forget about Coral Cottage to bring family and friends together; everyone will have a great place to call home in a world-class coastal destination. Enjoy! Minimum age to book this property is : 26

This was a great location that was walkable to the Main Street which had a lot of restaurants, a grocery store and a Starbucks! Perfect space for a couple.
