About this property

Montecito Miramar Beach Cottage

Stay at Montecito’s favorite beach. Quiet and comfortable one bedroom cottage with everything you need - king bed, full kitchen and bath (glass shower-no tub), spacious living room and private garden patio. The cottage is conveniently located just one block away from the beach or the Rosewood Miramar hotel and just minutes to Coast Village Road for dining and shopping.

The cottage is a freestanding and private unit on a larger property with its own private entrance and hedged yard. Full of charm and super chic, you will love this little gem in Montecito!

Guests access the cottage via a shared driveway, but its located behind two private gates. You will have the entire cottage to yourself as well as the private side yard with seating and a tall hedge for privacy.

I offer contactless check in, but I live in the neighborhood should you need any help at all during your stay.

Located in Montecito's beach community, walking distance to the Beach (Miramar, Hammonds and Butterfly Beach) and next door to the Rosewood Miramar Resort. Just a two minute walk to the beach and a short drive to Coast Village Road and Upper Village Montecito for all your dining and shopping needs. Please note that train runs through the beach community in Montecito and Santa Barbara so you will expect to hear the train periodically.

Additionally this is an active neighborhood - so please expect to hear the train, kids, dogs etc. and the house behind us is under construction so there is potential for construction noise. If you are at all noise sensitive, please note the noise warning and feel free to message the host with specific questions.

***Please note: The neighbors behind the cottage are under construction so there will be construction noise during allowed hours of 7AM - 5PM***MONDAY-FRIDAY. Construction on the weekends is not allowed.

Sister weekend

My sister and I try to get away together once every few years. We headed up to Montecito and this cute little home was the perfect place for our day trips. Adorably furnished with a nice bathroom and very close to the beach and the Miramar, we absolutely loved it. Danielle was easy to reach and very helpful! We would definitely come back!

Montecito Cottage

Cottage was exactly as shown online. Cozy, casual, quiet and private with all amenities needed for a relaxing weekend getaway. Just a block from Butterfly Beach and just around the corner from Rosewood Miramar. Our host Danielle was responsive and helpful during our stay. Highly recommend!

Small little cottage

Nice and clean, parking is not the best as you need to park out on the street and cart your luggage down a shared driveway. No TV or Radio in Unit, Lots of Towels, no wash clothes. It is a nice little unit for 1 person or a couple. Close to beach and in a quite neighborhood.
