Gray Malin Getaway House | In Coastal Montecito

The Gray Malin Getaway House is a unique vacation experience designed by fine-art photographer Gray Malin to step into his world of escapism and make your stay the ultimate getaway.

Completely renovated in May 2024, no detail was left unconsidered when designing this dreamy Montecito getaway for you and your guests with furniture from William-Sonoma, bathroom products from Goop, Bluejay Bicycles, Weezie towels color-coordinated to each room, and so much more. Once here, you'll never want to leave. It's a one-of-a-kind vacation experience. The home sits on a corner lot with a large yard just steps away from Montecito's Butterfly Beach. The modern coastal interior is paired with a tranquil outdoor space perfect for relaxing or hosting. The thoughtful floor plan is intended for guests to unwind, spend quality time together and feel like home.

From exterior to interior this house has a luxurious and calming feel. With 4 bedrooms and space to comfortably sleep 10 the Getaway House is perfect for a family retreat, a trip with friends or simply somewhere to decompress near the ocean. Curated artwork by Gray Malin is the centerpiece of every room, with the design complementing each unique space. The entryway is framed by a charming white fence enclosing the extensive yard. Stepping up the stone pathway you're greeted by comfortable lounge chairs, a fire pit, a sun terrace with chaise lounge chairs and a large water feature, outdoor dining and a bocce ball court – creating an oasis for intimate dinners, outdoor games & lounging.

The blue Dutch front door welcomes you to the home. The color of the front door is mirrored by the staircase leading up to the second floor. Off the entryway a purposefully designed mudroom hosts space to hang coats, kick off your shoes and store extra luggage. This room also features two built-in desks in case you need to pull double-duty and work between vacation activities. The kitchen is truly the heart of the home at this house. With a large, masterfully designed kitchen that accommodates casual mornings or large gatherings. Stocked entirely with William-Sonoma appliances, cookware and dish ware for a unique luxury touch to make you feel at home. Make your morning coffee or evening beverage with ease; embrace your inner chef.

Connected to the kitchen is the dining room, featuring a fireplace & table that can comfortably sit up to 10. This space is perfect for hosting, game nights or simply enjoying dinner with friends.Through the dining room is the great room, with ample seating, soaked in sunlight during the day. Come evening, this room is a comfortable place for conversations and unwinding in front of the fireplace. If a movie night is on the itinerary you can all relax in the Media Room and turn on a classic. A thoughtfully designed laundry room and powder room complete the ground floor. The downstairs primary bedroom is a lovely, well-appointed room with a king-size bed, ensuite bathroom and a door out to a private patio with ample seating.

With a spacious garage attached to the mudroom it's easy to store personal items and two cars. Here guests will find 6 electric BlueJay Bikes with helmets for cruising around Montecito, complimentary for you to use during your stay. You will also find stylish beach equipment and beach trolleys to fill with goodies on your way to your perfect beach day.

Upon reaching the upstairs you're greeted by the loft area, where you can enjoy a game of backgammon or chess on the custom game table. There is also a pull-out sofa bed for overflow guests. Open the doors to the balcony and let in the ocean breeze. The upstairs primary bedroom has been designed to feel like an Italian summer getaway. Boasting a four-poster, king bed, a large closet and soaring vaulted ceilings. The attached bathroom offers a luxurious shower and ample counter space.

The bunk room was designed as an ideal room for kids to play and relax. With two twin bunk beds and a queen sized bed below, there's plenty of space for everyone. Lastly, the upstairs guest room is adorned with a beautifully designed headboard, wicker pendant lights as well as soft Montecito light in the morning.

Family Getaway

We had a family getaway over Memorial Day weekend and stayed in two homes. This house was large and spacious and gave us plenty of room for full family dinners, drinks outside and gathering. The house is lovely and has easy access to everything Santa Barbara offers.

Lovely Montecito home close to the beach!

We had an amazing two weeks. The house and garden are even better than the pictures! We couldn’t ask for a better location and the hosts were super responsive. We’ve already booked for next year.

Great family get away

Super nice quality place to stay.. Our whole family really enjoyed this Montecito home. It was super clean, safe and beautiful. We had no problems and the location is excellent with walkable access to the beach and quick driving access to shopping, zoo, wharf and breakwater locations. The yard was private with a nice jacuzzi and beautiful koi pond. We had a great time and would highly recommend this rental property.

Fantastic Location in Montecito

My husband and I had a lovely stay at this home. Check in and communication with the property managers, especially Viki and Lydia from VROSB was very smooth and I appreciated their assistance while we were there. The house is perfectly located near Butterfly Beach and close to Montecito Village and was well stocked and appointed. Thank you for a great stay!

Montecito stay with family

Great house walking distance to Butterfly beach. Loved the hot tub, ping pong table & spacious master bedroom. Really enjoyed it with adult children. They should add a propane out fireplace or some patio heaters outside so easier to eat dinner outside.

Beautiful space with a magical yard

What a gorgeous property!! We loved sitting outside and listening to the fountain, seeing the fish, cooking on the grill, and the kitchen was spectacular for preparing big family dinners — awesome inventory of tools and everything nicely organized. Beds were comfy, house was pristine, pool table and ping-pong were great activities for the kids; and obviously the location is phenomenal. Thanks for a wonderful stay — we felt very lucky to be here!

Graduation Celebration

We stayed four days in this beautiful property. It is a short walk to Butterfly Beach and the shops and restaurants of Montecito. We were there to celebrate a college graduation and the house was perfect for the six of us. The property managers were very attentive and made check in and check out very easy.
