Whimsical Wave on Miramar Beach | One of a Kind Direct Beachfront Experience!

Special house right on the water, wish I could’ve had check in, WiFi info etc through vrbo1 it all came in third party emails which was frustrating

Great place, great service.

Incredible views and sunrises

The house was as wonderfully quirky as advertised. So many interesting handcrafted details to admire. Stunning location. My only complaint is that while the kitchen is very well outfitted for cooking there are absolutely no supplies on hand. Not even salt and pepper. There is coffee and tea but be prepared to bring everything else.

My sister in law stayed here for the weekend, I can’t say enough amazing things about the location. When the tide was high you felt like you were on a boat! Waking up in the ocean, that was actually my favorite part. I also loved the proximity to the Rosewood( 6 min walk) It’s where I usually stay when coming to visit, so it was nice to walk there for dining, their food is incredible. It would be nice if the home offered more amenities.. like bikes, or even coffee/tea in the kitchen. I was not a fan of the booking process, after booking with VRBO you have to go through a vacation rental mgmt company. This made the process a little longer and more complicated for me. The mgmt company charges you a 2k deposit, they give you the impression you’ll get it back right away( I was assuming upon checkout, but you don’t get it back for several weeks) The cleaning fee was also higher than any rental I’ve stayed at and the place was not very clean upon checking in. It was very dusty, the floors didn’t feel clean and a lot of spider webs. Regardless of all that the home itself is very special, and cozy. The neighbor was also very friendly.

I've stayed on Miramar many times over the years and it's my favorite place on earth. I've stayed at the Whimsical Wave last year and again this year and it's the most unique and beautiful home on this beach. I have a yacht in Santa Barbara harbor that I can stay on any time I come to town but this home will keep drawing me back again and again. I'll be back again to stay here soon. It's the most peaceful and beautiful place there is. I'd stay here for the rest of my life if I could.

Amazing

relaxing space- made for a great Father’s Day weekend

This home was such a fun, eclectic space. It had everything we needed and the views are unrivaled. (Note : this is not handicapped friendly)

Have always loved this house and location. Thank you for sharing it with us. We had a wonderful and memorable time.
