The Cottage at West Beach - Coastal Designer Style in the Heart of SB!

2 BEDROOMS | 1 BATHROOM | 4 GUESTS
This newly renovated Paradise Retreats cottage is located in Santa Barbara’s carefree West Beach neighborhood. It’s filled with small bungalows and boutique hotels that are just steps from the beach, Stearns Wharf, State Street, Funk Zone, and the Harbor. The Brewhouse, Toma, Jeannine's Bakery and Chad’s restaurants frequented by locals, and Amtrak station are all close by making the walkability that much better for this Santa Barbara beach rental.

Open the door into a stylish vaulted Living Room that gives way to a newly renovated Kitchen. Giant tri-fold doors easily condense providing an indoor/outdoor living experience with the dual Kitchen bar, added dining space, and BBQ grill on the private deck. Luxurious linens in both bedrooms are only rivaled by original Gregory Beeman paintings, specifically commissioned for this property.

The Cottage at West Beach, The Hideaway at West Beach, and The Lookout at West Beach comprise the three units of this triplex. All 3 units are available through Paradise Retreats. Imagine bringing loved ones to rent all three!

HIGHLIGHTS:
- Walk to the Beach and Downtown!
- Option to rent all 3 Units!
- Newly Renovated and Designed

NOTE: Parking for 1 small-medium car in shared double garage. There is street parking with time restrictions on the weekends.

NOTE: The Kitchen wall of this unit is shared with the Living Room wall of The Hideaway at West Beach.

Amazing place by the beach!

We truly enjoyed our stay at the cottage. Steps away from the beach, dedicated parking, well decorated and felt like an oasis (especially with the outdoor patio), and close to many restaurants/easy walk to the Funk Zone. Would definitely stay here again!
