Released 25 November 2019

Rosewood Miramar Beach is pleased to reveal A Star is Born, an ultra-exclusive journey developed as part of Rosewood Hotels & Resorts’® collection of one-of-a-kind travel experiences, Rosewood Limited Edition. Offering an exclusive opportunity to experience the Santa Barbara International Film Festival as a Hollywood insider, A Star is Born allows travelers to access a largely unreachable element of Santa Barbara’s signature spirit, facilitating a profound and lifelong connection with the destination and one of its most iconic traditions. A highlight of Rosewood Limited Edition, A Star is Born is available on a first come, first serve basis and is now available, offering the perfect present to bestow upon friends and family this holiday season and beyond.

Available only through Rosewood Miramar Beach, the glamourous A Star is Born experience provides film fanatics with all-access passes to the most exclusive events at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival, a highlight of Hollywood’s awards season. Following a sumptuous dinner at the resort’s signature oceanfront restaurant, Caruso's, the three-night package will begin by whisking guests away via a custom Rolls-Royce Ghost to the historic Riviera Theater to enjoy a private screening of their choice of any 2020 Academy Award-nominated film. The next night, a fun-filled evening with A-list celebrities at the 2020 Maltin Modern Master Award Ceremony, with preferred VIP seating at The Arlington Theater, will grant a further glimpse inside the glamorous lifestyle of the industry’s elite. Back at Rosewood Miramar Beach, guests will get the Hollywood treatment at Sense, A Rosewood Spa, followed by a private hair and makeup session with The Wall Group Los Angeles' celebrity makeup artist, Kate Lee, and hair stylist to the stars, Renato Campora. Once “red carpet ready,” the Rolls-Royce will once more carry guests away to make a grand entrance at The Arlington alongside the industry’s top talent for the 2020 Virtuoso Awards, an exclusive awards ceremony honoring next-generation actors and actresses.

“Santa Barbara, and the town of Montecito specifically, have long had roots in the world of entertainment, and we’re thrilled to embrace that heritage with this incredible experience designed to delight even the most sophisticated of cinephiles,” “A Star is Born offers travelers a unique perspective on an event that is so quintessentially Santa Barbara, and we are proud to present an exclusive opportunity for our guests to take in the glamour of one of the film industry’s most wonderful weekends with this bespoke package.”

About Rosewood Miramar Beach

Rosewood Miramar Beach is the American Riviera estate. Nestled on the pristine shores of Montecito along California’s Central Coast and framed by the Santa Ynez Mountains, this oceanfront haven offers an unparalleled connection to the sea and surrounding landscape. An homage to acclaimed architect Paul Williams, the resort features residential-style architecture and interiors, alongside a carefully curated private art collection. The 152 rooms and suites—including those with front-row views of the Pacific Ocean—capture the essence of West Coast elegance and contemporary Californian living. Days here unfold between the waves and the mountains: think surfing, paddleboarding, hiking and discovering Santa Barbara’s most acclaimed vineyards. Dining celebrates the region’s bounty across eight distinct venues, including the Michelin-starred Caruso’s restaurant. With the restorative Sense Spa, a state-of-the-art fitness center, two serene pools and a curated selection of boutiques, well-being thrives in every detail.
