Between the Montecito Inn, Four Seasons Resort The Biltmore and San Ysidro Ranch, Montecito is known for it's luxurious and sophisticated vacation destinations. However, Rosewood Hotels and Resorts has just announced they will be the new guys in town by 2018. KEYT news shared that the project is to bring back the tourism tax dollars to the county. Estimating that it will bring $3 million sales and bed taxes. The Miramar Beach Hotel resort closed in 2000 losing the county $2 million per year since it's shut down. Rosewood will be opening it's doors in the exact same historic location.
