Beautiful property close to the beach
We had a great stay. The house was clean and had everything we needed for a weeklong surf trip. It is only a short walk to the beach, restaurants and shops.

Great house and location
We visited friends in SD for the 4th of July and two families stayed in this house. It was perfect. Great location, very clean, and lots of things that they offer at the house to make things easier (crib sheets, high chair, beach toys, etc.). And the host was kind and helpful.

Beautiful home and property
The home and yard are well-cared for. We loved everything about it. The outdoor fire was a highlight. The space was clean, well-decorated, and well-stocked. Everything was provided in the bathrooms and kitchen to make our stay an easy one. Unlike other places we've stayed, the beds and pillows were comfortable. We couldn't have asked for a better place at a more reasonable rate. Stephanie was responsive, helpful, and accommodating. We would definitely recommend.

Perfect stay for Everyone
We had our family with us for our son's wedding. We had our 13 month grandson staying as well. The living room area was so spacious for him to play with toys as for all of us to be comfortable. We loved the open concept. My other 2 grandkids came to visit and loved the front grass area for playtime. The decor and amenities were spot on. Our new extended family stopped by and everyone loved the place. Through we were busy with the wedding - it was close to everything. Our SIL jogged to the beach. This really was a perfect fit for us. Thank you for sharing your home. The next time we need a place in Encinitas, we will defiantly book this home again.

Beautiful and comfortable home!
The home was even better in person. Beds and linens were very comfortable. High end appliances. Extremely clean. Backyard space is so nice to sit out in the morning and evening. Walk to watch the surfers at the beach access on Leucadia Blvd. Walk to great restaurants. We would definitely stay again.

Lovely beach house
Beautifully decorated and well appointed beach house just a few (uphill) blocks from great surf beach. Kitchen had everything we need included two coffee makers (keurig and drip); would have been nice to have even small selection of coffee or tea here so wr didn't have to go out for it right away but that is literally the only thing I can think of that would have improved our stay!

Family friendly close to beach
Overall a nice property and attentive property manager. The amenities and household items provided were most we’ve seen in any rental! We were however disappointed in the cleanliness. While the general house was clean and maintained, the hvac filter was dirty which was replaced within an hour of our arrival. Then that evening we showered to find a big hair ball at the bottom of the drain. This is no fault to the property or management but really the cleaning crew. Recommend for families (single level and high chair/pack n play) along with minimal “toddler breakable” items.

Great place to stay in Leukadia
We had a wonderful time at this property. The location is great for access to Encinitas and all the surrounding beach towns, and easy access to highways taking you anywhere in the region. The kitchen had everything we needed. And we really enjoyed the outside area for making fires and hanging out. The only downside was the noise from the train and a toilet that stopped working (but that could happen anywhere).

We felt like the first people to stay! Book now!
From check-in to check-out, the entire process was seamless. The host, Stephanie, was always responsive and available to answer questions, although everything that could possibly be needed was included in the very detailed and thorough home guide. The home was stunning – the pictures online are amazing, but you really need to see it to believe it. Fixtures, furniture, and appliances all felt new. Everything was professionally cleaned and sanitized prior to our arrival. We truly felt like the first group to stay in this home. Although we didn't use any of the home's outdoor activity amenities during our stay, we loved that they were available to use. The home is in a great location, just minutes to restaurants, shops, and beaches. We couldn't have asked for a better experience in San Diego. Thanks again, Stephanie!

What a delight!
This place was awesome! I appreciated so many things about this house - the decor, the outdoor spaces, kitchen, on and on. Location is great as well - easy walk to restaurants. We loved the outdoor space and hung out on the front porch in the mornings then shifting to the relaxing backyard the rest of the day. I highly recommend staying here - you will love it! It was the perfect spot for our little getaway!

Beautiful home perfect for weekend getaway!
Thank you for letting our family stay at your wonderful beach house for the weekend! We definitely enjoyed all the amenities the property had to offer such as the outdoor shower, the fireplace (which made the most delicious s'mores), the grill, the complimentary surfboards and wax, and beach cruisers with attached surfboard racks so you can bike to the beach with your surfboard like a true local! The home was equipped with everything you can possibly imagine (so many towels and blankets, we never ran out!) with a state-of-the-art kitchen with so many appliances such as an Instant Pot and food processor! Also, a special mention to the sound system in the living room... top-notch surround sound (look up, there are speakers installed in the ceiling and walls!) Thank you so much for letting us enjoy your home, we will definitely be back in the future! :)
