Montecito, United States — This season, Rosewood Miramar Beach invites guests to slow down, unplug, and reconnect through the simple pleasure of reading with the launch of a Book Concierge, a stay experience created in collaboration with Godmothers Bookstore, Summerland’s beloved independent bookseller and community gathering place. Founded by Jennifer Rudolph Walsh and Victoria Jackson, Godmothers is a local bookstore with a global dream. They believe in their bones that authentic storytelling is the magic medicine the world needs to connect. They are fiercely passionate about bringing diverse people together to share stories, ideas, wisdom, and tools for transformation. 

Available for stays starting February 12th, the Book Conciergeis designed for those seeking rest, reflection, and a renewed sense of presence along the American Riviera. Blending luxurious seaside accommodations with thoughtfully curated literature, the experience offers a modern antidote to the pace of everyday life. Prior to arrival, guests are invited to complete a brief reader profile, allowing for a thoughtfully curated selection based on individual tastes and interests. The curated book bundles of three or five titles are placed in their guest room upon arrival. Each bundle is designed to inspire, comfort, and encourage reflection, transforming reading into a personal ritual throughout the stay. Quiet mornings by the sea, leisurely afternoons on the veranda, and Rosewood Miramar Beach’s signature sense of place provide the ideal setting to turn the page and reset for the year ahead.

“The Book Concierge reflects our commitment to creating meaningful, place -driven experiences that nourish both mind and spirit,” said Philip Meyer, Regional Vice President, Rosewood Hotels & Resorts. “Growing our partnership with the team at Godmothers through the Book Concierge allows us to celebrate storytelling, creativity, and community while offering guests a truly restorative escape.”

Launched in 2025, the partnership between Rosewood Miramar Beach and Godmothers brings storytelling, community, and shared experiences together. The collaboration includes a Literary Society with monthly author conversations, daily Reading Hours at The Manor Bar for quiet reflection, and seasonal pop-up events at the resort and bookstore, all of which are open to both resort guests and the local community.

The Book Concierge is bookable directly with our team at miramar@rosewoodhotels.com with a minimum of 48 hours’ advance notice.
