Santa Barbara Vacation Beach Rentals Ocean Oasis
So many Santa Barbara beach house rentals, so little time. It’s tough to decide which Santa Barbara beach house rental to book, but if you’re heading to the Southern California coast specifically for some serious sand time, we have a few suggestions for how to find your ideal Santa Barbara beach house rental.
If you want to be just steps (150 steps, to be exact) from the ocean, then Ocean Oasis is the ideal Santa Barbara beach house rental. There is nothing but bluff between guests and the unspoiled and un-crowded beaches. A hot tub is perched on the deck with gorgeous views of the water where you can watch birds and dolphins frolic from the backyard of your Santa Barbara beach house rental. Warm your toes at the fire-pit in the evening as you watch the sun sink below your Santa Barbara beach house rental. The interior of the villa is gorgeous, but you won’t care because the outside living area of this Santa Barbara beach house rental is spectacular, and that’s where you’ll want to spend all your time. Ocean Oasis is just five minutes to downtown shopping and the harbor, and a two minute drive to shops and restaurants, including Santa Barbara’s best gourmet grocery store.
Right across from Shoreline Park, and within easy walking distance of the very popular Ledbetter (or Leadbetter) Beach, Santa Barbara Oceanview is another very popular Santa Barbara beach house rental. The light and airy interiors of this Santa Barbara beach house rental are complemented by the traditional Spanish tile floors featured inside and out. The outdoor living space of this Santa Barbara beach house rental includes a beautiful hot tub on the rooftop deck that looks out to the ocean and nearby park.
Butterfly Beach is one of our favorite beaches in Santa Barbara. It’s one of the few west-facing beaches where you can actually catch a sunset, and one of the best places to do that are Santa Barbara beach house rentals Casa Bella and Casa Linda. These truly exemplary Spanish-style Santa Barbara beach house rentals are just two blocks away from lapping waves and an easy stroll to the restaurants on Coast Village. Both Santa Barbara beach house rentals include beach chairs, beach umbrellas and beach bicycles.
If you’re looking forward to walking or jogging along the beach from your Santa Barbara beach house rental, West Beach is an ideal choice. Located in the heart of Santa Barbara’s downtown waterfront district, West Beach is one block from the stunning Santa Barbara beach house rentals Mykonos Villa at Cinque Terre and Juniper Cottage. These beautiful Santa Barbara beach house rentals are close to downtown and within easy walking distance of restaurants. Mykonos offers over 600 square feet of outside decks, including a “living roof” terrace, with a fireplace, fountain, and 360-degree views of the ocean, mountains, harbor, mission and riviera. There is also a beautiful common courtyard, with a fountain and picnic table. Mykonos rental includes the use of two beach cruiser bicycles, two Boogie Boards, four beach chairs and towels, two beach mats, a roll-away ice cooler, Smashball and Frisbees. Rental of Juniper includes four beach chairs and two beach umbrellas.
The only off-leash beach in Santa Barbara is Hendry’s Beach, which makes the best Santa Barbara beach house rental for pet owners Le Petit Chateau, an easy two-block warm-up walk away. Located on a quiet lane, this Santa Barbara beach house rental’s large glass doors open to a beautiful patio and lawn with views of the Mesa hills and a doggy door that opens to a fully enclosed backyard that allows your pet the freedom to roam safely. Le Petit Chateau rental includes beach chairs and a sun umbrella.
