Welcome to The Cottage, Santa Barbara Vacation Rentals’ newest rental property. Perched directly on the sand of Montecito’s exclusive Miramar neighborhood, this home offers a true coastal getaway.

The history of The Cottage dates back to the early 1900s, when it was originally constructed as a “day shack” for beach goers to take refuge on hot summer days. This little piece of history certainly provides a unique charm to the home, adding to its allure!

Enter the home from the upper level, where you are greeted by a pitched ceiling and plentiful natural light from the many skylights and bay windows focused on the ocean. The kitchen, located just off the entrance, is equipped with all that you may need to cook your favorite meals… or heat up your takeout. After all The Cottage is located mere minutes from the famed Rosewood Miramar Hotel, where you can find a Michelin-starred restaurant and world-class shopping.

The living room and dining room meld together, each offering unparalleled views of the Pacific. With a setup as ideal at The Cottage, you can enjoy sunset-viewing and ocean-watching from the comfort of your couch. The living area is comfortably furnished, and the dining table accommodates four people. Just beyond the glass patio door is an extended deck with glass railings for unobstructed views. Enjoy al fresco dining at the outdoor dining table, perfect for entertaining on warm summer nights.

Downstairs you will find the bedrooms, which were designed to feel like you’re in staterooms on a yacht. The first bedroom is equipped with a queen sized and access to the lower balcony. There are two full-sized bunks that lead into the second suite, which also features a queen-sized bed. Just off this suite you can enjoy another access point to the balcony, overlooking the ocean. Listen to the soothing sounds of the waves, gaze out into the sunset, or just simply watch the world go by.
