VRBO Bear stayed here - 10/29/2007
I decided to take a trip to San Diego, and boy am I glad I did! Our accommodations in Oceanside were outstanding. When we first arrived, we were treated to a grand tour – upon entering through the wrought iron gate, we were soothed with the sounds of the three tiered cascading fountain. The home was a delight, with a princess bedroom, pirate bedroom, Hawaiian bedroom and a most romantic master retreat, each complete with flat screen TVs. I appreciated the bright, happy colors throughout the house – no bland, boring hotel-type décor or cramped space but so much more than we imagined!
Out back was a full BBQ, a large, cozy fireplace and plenty of chairs for lounging. The cubbies enjoyed the pool and waterfall while I took advantage of the relaxing hot tub. When the cubs weren’t in the pool, they were jumping on the trampoline or playing on the swing set. There was so much space to play, even a putting green.
The beach was a only a mile away, and Disneyland was just an hour. We decided to visit the park during the week when lines were short. But best of all was coming back to relax and enjoy this exceptional home where everything you need is provided, from beach towels, boogie boards and bikes to the most comfortable pillow top beds. Our host even provides a special treat for all her guests. (Thank you, Carrie, for anticipating everything this furry guest and his cubs could need!)

Great house in which all and particularly children would be happy spending their time 24/7 on the property. Outside spectacular. This was a special birthday celebration for us with all children and grandchildren in attendance. Would do again.

This house was everything you could ask for in a vacation rental. The owners thought of everything...it was as if they set it up as their own home with everything they may have needed or wanted and then just gave you the key...Having the pool and playground was perfect for the kids...and the five minute walk to the store or mile drive to a lovely beach was perfect...There was plenty of room for our 3 families and we appreciated the owners going above and beyond what most rentals offer. I would love to stay here again...too bad it wasn't a bit cheaper....but if you have the $, so worth it... Thanks for a great vaction. Stephanie, Wa.

Our 4-year-old grandson requested a vacation with sand. So that's when I began looking for a house near the beach in southern California. Casa de Allegra looked to be the best - and it was!! We had wonderful timel. The home is beautiful, the yard is heavenly - a true oasis. There were eight of us - two sets of grandparents, mom and dad and two young boys. The boys loved the fort and the trampoline. The pool was a hit one afternoon - unfortunately it was just too cool to swim much while we were there. The house has lots of windows from the kitchen/family room area so we all enjoyed the beautiful backyard view while cooking/eating inside. Every evening after dark, we turned on the outdoor fireplace, sat around the fire and heated up chocolate chip cookies over the flame and added a dip of ice cream and talked about our day and all the fun we had. We STRONGLY recommend Casa de Allegra. Clean, beautiful home with accommodating landlords. BTW, it's only a few minutes from Legoland which is perfect for young children. We also enjoyed the nearby beach with all that sand more than once! Thanks Carrie and Brad for sharing your home - even more beautiful than the photographs.

The house is 10/10. The backyard is 20/10. There are so many things that they don't tell you in the ad that make the trip so much better - from the dedicated playroom full of toys and books for the kids, to the zippy cups, bibs and lockable pool area. It was the perfect choice for us to take our family with young children to. It is very conveniently located - about 1 minute to the interstate and a 2 minute walk to a shopping centre. The house was pristine and the owners are very easy to work with and helpful. We'll be back as long as it remains a rental.

Our family including our daughters, sons-in-law and 3 grandchildren (total 9) stayed at the Casa de Allegra for a week and we all experienced a fabulous time. The facilities were excellent with plenty of activities for the children and adults to do. The house is located in a quiet area and is within walking distance of a shopping mall. It is also within a short driving distance of Legoland, and San Diego. We all enjoyed our experience here and highly recommend the facility to others.

Probably the most well equipped home we have rented. The home is especially good for families with small children, plenty of activities for the whole family. We spent most of our time outside enjoying the great outdoor areas.

This was our second year at Casa De Allegra, and we enjoyed ourselves every bit as much as the first. It really is a special property - the owners (who are incredibly nice and helpful) have thought of everything. The backyard is full of things for the whole family to enjoy - a great pool, a wonderful outdoor eating area, a fireplace for hanging out in the evenings. Not to mention the swingset, the trampoline and the putting green. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you could possibly need. There is so much for the kids to do that we, as parents, actually got to relax!!! There is lots of fun stuff nearby - just minutes to Legoland, and not far from Sea World, the zoo, the wild animal park, the beach. But, my favorite thing about this house is that you never have to leave to have a good time. It is a great place for a family reunion, where you can really just enjoy everyone's company in a beautiful space with lots of fun things to do.

We just returned home from our week stay at Casa de Allegra :( sad to be home. This place is a must stay. It was everything we had hoped and more. The pictures just don't do justice - it is even more beautiful in person. If you have a large family coming to the SD area to relax, you gotta stay here! And please take the time to relax. You'll kick yourself if you don't. The house, the beach, grocery, Wal-Mart, and great restaurants are all easily accessible from this location. It was truly enjoyable. Thanks for your hospitality Wilhites! And Goooooo Jayhawks!

We stayed at Casa de Allegra in July 2010 with family ages 9 months to 70 years old. It was fantastic! The pool area, spa, outdoor BBQ and living area make you feel like you are at a resort. It was perfect for kids. Our daughter was entertained all week by a play room FULL of toys! We flew in, so were happy that they had pool and beach toys, high chairs, beach towels, bikes, coolers -- anything you could want for a vacation with kids. The owners are very responsive and even helped refer us for an unexpected trip to the pediatrician while we were there. It's a residential neighborhood, but close enough to the beach and other attractions. This makes a great "home base" for a vacation in San Diego/Carlsbad. We hope to stay there again some day!
