About this house rental
Perched on Santa Barbara's scenic Mesa bluffs, Water's Edge lives up to its name, with sweeping ocean and island vistas stretching endlessly across the blue Pacific.
This extraordinary coastal retreat offers a rare sense of space and serenity with newly designed interiors steeped in natural textures and fine quality furnishings. Wrap-around decks are a front row seat to savor the peaceful rhythm of the waves and sea breezes. The lush landscaping is rich with native botanicals, olive trees, and coastal color.
The living and family rooms present distinct personalities—each refined yet relaxed with a cool coastal vibe. In both spaces, walls of glass and wide sliding doors invite sunshine in, and distinctly blur the line between indoors and out, immersing guests in the coastal panorama. Sit fireside in the more formal living room or enjoy the family room for movie night; both rooms feature fireplaces.
Open to the family room, the kitchen keeps the chef connected while creating in a well-equipped space. The primary suite features a dual-sided fireplace, ocean views, and a lovely ensuite bath with a walk-in shower. Three additional bedrooms—two with king beds and one with twins offer stylish comfort for every guest.
Step out to the view terrace to relax, dine under the stars, or cozy up by the firepit and roast marshmallows on the side patio, all with an ocean view. Begin or end the day with a warm soak in the hot tub overlooking the vast Pacific. Priceless.
Set within the Mesa's vibrant community, Water's Edge is moments from Lazy Acres gourmet market, local eateries, and relaxed neighborhood establishments. Stroll to nearby Shoreline Park, run the track at Santa Barbara City College, or head downtown in minutes for fine dining, films, shopping, and twice-weekly farmers markets. Feel like staying in? Check out our Concierge services, we're sure there is a private chef just waiting to prepare a memorable meal at this incredible home.
With its breathtaking views, thoughtful design, and coveted location, Water's Edge perfectly defines the spirit of California coastal living—a true sanctuary above the sea.

10 / 10Outstanding·May 2026
A lovely, tranquil, immaculate home in a friendly, residential neighborhood. The furniture is new, from The Pottery Barn. The beds and linens were beautiful and comfortable. Typical of The Mesa, the property looks out over the ocean from a cliff. It is ocean front property but not on the sand. The backyard lawn and gardens were well kept and charming. There is a lovely, large fire pit, too. Everything is in good order and immaculate. A well cared for property close to everything you would need, like shopping. . Not far from The Douglas Preserve or Hendry’s Beach (leash-free dog beach). There is everything you would need but it is not a kitchen set up for extensive cooking or baking. There are many places to sit, eat or watch TV. The bathrooms are nice but not the house’s most notable feature. The reason to rent this house is for its situation on the cliff, above the ocean, its calm and comfortable furniture and extraordinary ocean views from the indoor space and the outdoor deck.I would take friends and family here again!Also, nestled in the neighborhood is a long, mostly wooden, set of stairs leading to the sand. It took me a while to climb back up them, though the younger ladies in our group seemed to climb them without needing to rest. Photos from that location, taken in early morning or sunset, were exquisite.

Spectacular property. Everything was clean and organized when we arrived, the welcome binder covered everything and then some, and the home was even better than expected. Rental agency was friendly and attentive. Best property I've ever stayed at; words don't do it justice!
