A wood deck off of the primary bedroom offers ocean views and opens onto a beautifully landscaped backyard with a large lawn, as well as fig and lemon trees. The outdoor shower is perfect to rinse and relax after a day at the beach while the 2-story tree house will keep the kids entertained all day long. Additional amenities include:

A swing
Wetsuits
Surfboards
Boogie boards
Beach toys
Beach umbrellas
2 Electric Bikes
Scooters

Located close to L'Auberge resort between 15th and 13th streets, this cottage is just a few blocks away from the best shopping and dining in Del Mar. Other nearby attractions include Del Mar Race Track and the Del Mar Fairgrounds (about 1.5 miles away).

Love This Fairy Tale Cottage !

This adorable fairy tale cottage is the perfect fit for our family. (My husband, myself, our teenage twin granddaughters and our little dog) We're repeat guests and would love to spend every spring break here! We love it that much! A nice little break from the Colorado snow. The location is perfect, with nice private driveway, close to parks, beach, shopping and dining. We only used our car twice in the week, to go to the market. The Cottage is very well maintained, with a warm, homey feel. Beautiful kitchen for cooking, deck for eating, reading and sunning. The garage has everything needed for a fun day at the beach. Laundy in basement was handy. We consider it our perfect getaway place! The Lallier Family

Rose cottage

The kids loved the treehouse and swing. The warm outdoor shower was a novelty for them after a sandy beach adventure. The best part was that they could walk everywhere.
