Wonderful

Sometimes on VRBO you get burned. Sometimes you are pleasantly surprised. This was definitely the latter. The place was so charming and wonderful. It was well stocked, the bed was comfortable, the front porch is great. Basically everything was perfect. We can't wait to go again.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Bungalow. Open space, enclosed front porch area, proximity to all things...just flat out a perfect place to stay that represents that "Cardiff-flow". Not only did we enjoy our stay, we feel we have discovered new friends in Sean, Erika and Kai (the owners). We will definitely be back, and look forward to future experiences at the Bungalow. Aloha!

Owner response:Aloha Paolo! Thanks so much for the nice feedback! We really enjoyed having you and your family stay at the Cardiff Beach Bungalow! Hope you guys decide to come back again soon!

Great Location!

Everything was as promised, Sean & Erika were very kind and helpful from beginning to end. We loved the fact that we could walk to great restaurants and to San Elijo State Beach. Every morning was spent walking through the park and the quite neighborhood. The convienent location even allowed us to take a quick trip to La Jolla for some kayaking & San Diego for some sightseeing. Our kids have already asked us if we can go back again next year. We would love to come back!

Owner response:It was so nice to meet you and your family. Thanks so much for staying at the Cardiff Beach Cottage! We'd love to have you back anytime!!!!!!

Comfortable Place in a Fun and Mellow Location

We enjoyed our visit at the bungalow. The owners were attentive, and the space very comfortable. We were in unit "C", and were a bit surprised that it did not feature a "full" bedroom (there is a low-wall with curtains separating the bedroom from the living space). This is fine for a couple, but a bit lacking in privacy if you are sharing the space. Also, the couch/bed could be a little more comfortable for those choosing to use it. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay. The kitchen/dining layout is great and the porch makes a great outdoor hang-out space.

Hi Erika and Sean, We got back to NJ late last night. Just wanted you to know we had a great time…it was great being back in Cardiff. We were comfortable in the bungalow and it helped us get back into the beach “scene” much quicker than if we had stayed in a hotel etc. We loved the location and the ease of getting down to the beach or into town. We even crossed over the tracks up at the north end of the San Elijo Park without getting busted! Well… so much for our living dangerously! Silly. Anyway, thanks again for the “digs” and hopefully we’ll see you again in the future. Take care, Teresa

Owner response:Glad you enjoyed your stay! The cottage location is in such a great location to walk to it all. When you stay here you will love the convenience of not driving.

very cute, nicely maintained home. Owners are wonderful, and worked with us on a short notice stay! Our 41/2 year old son loved walking to the park every day. We loved hearing the surf, the quick drive to the beach, and Seaside Market. We had a great stay!

THE SOFT AIR AND FLORAL SCENT STAYS WITH ME EVEN AS I GO THREE DAYS BACK INTO THE GRIND. I AM ALREADY PLANNING MY NEXT STAY. I WAS DELIGHTED BY THE CLOSE-IN BEACH FEEL.

What a relaxing getaway! I loved staying in the cardiff beach cottage - hearing the peaceful ocean waves and having an ocean view. It was so nice to be able to walk to everything - the beach, the restaurants, the library, and the park. I'm looking forward to my next stay. And thanks to my awesome hosts for their hospitality.
