Property details

Entering the unit, there is no question what the focus will be during a stay here. Dramatic coastal views through a wall of sliding glass doors draw guests right out to the oceanside terrace, where dining, barbecuing, and great conversation in the outdoor living room are bound to occur. Daily dolphin sightings are a common occurrence, along with local surfers and paddlers taking to the waves. With an open floor plan, each sunny living space connects without compromise. The living room features a deep couch and chairs for ultra-comfort. Tuck into the corner with a good book accompanied by the rhythm of the waves, or grab a glass of wine from the wine fridge at the built-in bar and enjoy a quiet conversation with a friend. The round table in front of the gas fireplace is perfect for any meal unless the high-top dining table on the beachfront terrace beckons. The kitchen is outfitted beautifully with dishes, glassware, a specialty coffee maker, and stainless steel appliances. Gourmet tastes and treats from the kitchen can also be enjoyed at the breakfast bar. Complimentary locally roasted coffee is provided or order a "First Morning Basket" before check-in to ensure a tasty treat is available upon waking. Contact our CONCIERGE SERVICES to order, and check out other curated adventures available to enhance your stay! In the serene bedroom off the entry, the king-size bed offers solace when the day is done; snuggle in and watch a bit of TV, then open the window to be lulled to sleep, in utter comfort, by the crashing waves just outside. There are two bathrooms, each with a shower-tub combination; one is across from the bedroom, and the other is off the living room. A portable air conditioning unit is provided for additional cooling, the AC is not central. The unit below, Beachfront Bliss (Lower), can also be rented, making these 2-units an ideal booking, offering autonomy for each unit while sharing the same fantastic view and beach amenities. Stairs lead down to the sand from each unit, making walks on long stretches of beach at low tide a must! Take a cool dip in the ocean, then rinse off in the outdoor shower. The World Class Rosewood Miramar Resort is only 100 yards away, so get dressed up and dine at Caruso's for a Micheline-style meal or casual cocktails on the upper deck at sunset. Also provided are beach chairs, beach umbrellas, and a couple of surf and paddle boards too. Finally, there is a full-capacity front-loading washer and dryer and two designated parking spaces. What fun it is to spend lazy days in the sun or quiet nights watching a full moon cast a romantic glow on the waters of Miramar Beach. Life is good here; nothing compares to falling asleep beside the ocean and waking up to paradise just outside the door. Beautiful! Minimum age to book this property is : 25

Absolutely wonderful stay here. The place is immaculately clean and all around somehow even better than expected! The couch in the house and the outside couches were so extremely comfortable which made it perfect for laying out on the balcony all day! The heaters on the patio were very nice and kept us very warm for enjoying the moonlight on the ocean.

We absolutely loved our stay at this beach house! The upstairs unit has an amazing ocean view, and waking up to the sound of the waves each morning and going to sleep with the ocean just outside was exactly the experience we were hoping for. That alone made our stay unforgettable. The décor was beautiful, comfortable, and thoughtfully done. We especially appreciated having two bathrooms, and the soaking tub was a wonderful place to relax after a day of exploring. The location couldn't have been better. It was close to wonderful restaurants, shopping, and all the attractions in Montecito and Santa Barbara, yet it still felt like a peaceful beach retreat. If you're looking for a place where you can truly enjoy the beauty of the California coast, relax by the ocean, and still be close to everything, I highly recommend this beach house. We would definitely stay here again!

My husband and I came here to disconnect and it couldn't have been nicer. The proximity to the beach, the deck overlooking the ocean, the home itself -- it was all perfect. I would recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a little peaceful recharge at the beach. We hope to go again.

We had a wonderful stay celebrating our 40th anniversary. We loved sitting on the deck watching the ocean and we even saw a seal the morning we left! We appreciated all the cozy blankets for relaxing on the deck. Lots of great Montecito restaurants are just a couple minutes away and we walked up to the Rosewood hotel for drinks in their jazz bar our first evening there. The unit was clean and comfortable and check in was quick and easy. The mattress was incredibly comfortable but I will advise to bring an eye mask if you’re sensitive to light while you’re sleeping as the shades don’t darken the bedroom much. The management company was easy to communicate with and quite responsive (we didn’t have any issues but one set of the house keys didn’t work). If we ever make it back to Santa Barbara we will definitely try and stay here again!
