This enchanting beachfront house at Miramar Beach in Montecito offers an unparalleled location. It`s your own private escape, just a stone`s throw away from the Rosewood Resort. Wake up to the sunrise & fall asleep to the waves. With a spacious deck, two inviting living spaces, two bedrooms & two full bathrooms, there`s ample room for relaxation and enjoyment. Whether you`re planning a family vacation or a romantic retreat, once you experience the magic of this place, you`ll never want to leave!

Step into your private beachfront getaway on Miramar Beach, where panoramic ocean views and relaxed coastal living await. This two-bedroom, two-bathroom home is designed for comfort, flexibility, and making the most of its incredible location—directly on the sand at one of Montecito’s most coveted beaches.

Upstairs, you’ll find a bright and inviting main living area, where the cozy living room features a fireplace, large TV, and stunning unobstructed ocean views. Step through French doors onto the spacious deck, perfectly set up for al fresco dining or lounging with the sound of the waves as your backdrop. Enjoy meals at the table for four, soak up the sun on the chaise loungers, or fire up the BBQa for sunset dinners.

The fully equipped kitchen offers everything you need to prepare meals, with a charming dining nook that seats 4-6 guests—ideal for casual breakfasts or intimate dinners with ocean breezes drifting in. Completing the upstairs is a serene bedroom with a king-sized bed and TV, along with a full bathroom featuring a walk-in shower.

Accessible via a private exterior staircase, the downstairs level offers a flexible retreat—perfect for families or guests wanting a bit of extra space. Please note: there is no internal staircase. This area includes two twin beds (convertible to a king upon request) and a sofa with a queen pullout bed, creating a versatile sleeping and lounging setup. A second full bathroom with a tub/shower combo and a large TV makes this an ideal alternative hangout spot after a day at the beach.

Please note that the homes on Miramar beach were built in the 1920s and are all accessed by stairs. They are also close to each other so you will see and hear neighbors.

Whether you’re sipping coffee on the deck at sunrise, unwinding by the fire after a day in the surf, or enjoying movie nights with the sound of the ocean in the background, this home offers the ultimate Miramar Beach experience.

For those looking to explore further, downtown Santa Barbara is just ten minutes away, offering a vibrant cultural scene, historic sites, and additional shopping and dining options. The quaint town of Summerland, known for its antique shops and laid-back vibe, is just five minutes down the coast.

Discover the best of the Central Coast from this unparalleled location—a true gem of the American Riviera, where your unforgettable beachside getaway awaits.

Miramar Beach houses are special because they are located directly on the sand. That being said, the homes were all built in the early 1900s and are petite in nature. You must be comfortable on stairs, because you must descend a set of stairs to get to the front door (top level of the home). Please note that because the homes are quite close to each other, the deck is close to the neighbor`s deck.

The beach house is positioned right on the sand at Miramar beach in Montecito just doors from the new Rosewood Miramar Beach Resort - close enough to walk to for cocktails or a dinner out, but far enough for privacy and solitude.

    We had a great stay for spring break. Location is unmatched and the property was perfect for our family of five. Dianne, the house manager, was extremely helpful and jumped on any issue we had during our stay.

    The house and location were absolutely lovely and the kitchen well stocked. Some minor issues with the plumbing but it didn’t impact our overall enjoyment.

    Amazing and wonderful little beach house on one of California's most beautiful beaches. We can highly recommend this property and you will not be disappointed. We loved every minute and everything about the place.

    This home is exceptional. It’s ideal for a couple or small family. The large deck over the beach is the perfect place to relax with family and have a bbq with a fully stocked kitchen. You can walk a few steps and you are on a beach that’s breathtakingly gorgeous. Coast Village Road is nearby with local farmers market etc and Danielle is a star and easy to communicate with if you have questions. Private gated parking spaces for two cars also makes it nice and easy. We can’t wait to go back!

    Everything was great except the water. The water and the beach contain black tar oil. All of our swimsuits were ruined and the oil tar was stuck to our skin which was very hard to get off. I dont understand how such a major issue is not addressed with this area! The house, host and aminities were great.

    Perfect location on the beach! Walkable to the Rosewood Miramar Resort restaurants, shops and beach bar. Gated parking and easy arrival and check-in process. It's a cute cozy cottage, and - as the description mentions - the downstairs is completely separate via an outdoor staircase. The only negative was lack of air conditioning in the bedroom, but overall it was a perfect beach cottage!

    Took my family for a quick beach trip. The location is fantastic. Miramar beach is pretty chill and very dog friendly. We were within 10 minutes to everything we needed. The house is older and pretty small. However, its comfortable and the location more than makes up for it. Great getaway spot.

    This place was perfect for our family of five. Three kids slept in lower room with very comfortable beds. Ocean right below us, can hear it all night. Steps away from the rosewood hotel. A mile or so from downtown with tons of restaurants. Private gated parking. Easy.

    We absolutely loved it! The location is amazing and it was wonderful taking walks on the beach. The house was small but beautifully decorated with wonderful soaps and everything we needed in the kitchen. We will definitely come back!
