Fantastic Retreat for families vacationing together or group get-aways! In the heart of Old Leucadia, (Encinitas), just four blocks to Stone Steps Beach access, and close to Moonlight Beach.
A gorgeous main house and two separate Casita Suites in "Hacienda Style", covered with a Breezeway and central Patio for outdoor dining. Suites can be one or separated by a door to make two separate living spaces in addition to the main house.
Featuring large grounds with a mature tropical landscaped and fence property. A truly magical setting for any occasion or simply a peaceful getaway, this designer-restored 1949 Craftsman Hacienda has a totally private setting, yet is only five blocks to Stone Steps Beach, and a short stroll to Moonlight Beach, Leucadia and downtown Encinitas.
Four fully appointed master suites, a cook's kitchen (plus an extra kitchenette in one of the suites), provides ample cooking space, not to mention the large outdoor BBQ grill. The property sleeps 11-13 in beds, plus there is a portable crib and two single roll-away beds provided.

Guest Comment Entered By Homeowner: This truly is a fantastic get-away retreat. A beautiful home with additional buildings with apartments in a very lovely, private setting: magical gardens with intriguing paths, a private compound, beautiful accommodations with every creature comfort, including a real cook's kitchen. Everything is top quality (high thread count cotton sheets, excellent mattresses, comfy duvets, comfy furniture), classy, tasteful, scrupulously clean. Comfortable nooks everywhere. A wonderful place for a romantic getaway, or for a large family reunion. In the heart of old Leucadia, close to wonderful cafes, restaurants, beaches, walking streets, etc. The only problem: The property is so delightful, serene, comfortable with nearly every creature comfort, that it's difficult to leave to explore the environs. Wonderful food stores nearby, excellent restaurants, beautiful beaches. This property is in a quiet, beautiful neighborhood. I've been recommending this property to everyone I know--it's perfect for any age group, for large or small groups of people, for short or long-term stays. Well, maybe not short-term: it was a wrenching

Guest Comment entered by Homeowner: What a beautiful house! We really enjoyed our time here. The layout of the casitas is great and the gardens are amazing. We only wish the weather would have been a bit warmer for us. We still got out and rode our bikes all over the area and enjoyed the beautiful scenery. And also we really liked our daily stops at Panniken Coffee just down the 101 - mmm... those muffins! Thanks for all the great personal touches at the house too! - nice cookware in the kitchen, the spices, all the books, etc. What a great place!

The extended families who had never met before came together this week at Casa Leucadia. Our children, Josh and Kendra, were united in matrimony in a beautiful ceremony in the park overlooking the ocean. The uniting of our families was accomplished as we cooked, ate, laughed and shared in the courtyard, on the porch and in the evening as everyone settled down to rest. The Walton's had nothing on us as we could call out "Night, Larry." "Night, David" (and Jan, Debbie, Cole, Drew, Kaylynn, Lauren, Teri, Kelly) (-:

This has been a wonderful place for us to gather with our kids and grandkids-so much fun to be together and watch the interaction of everyone. Accommodations were perfect, grounds beautiful! Loved the big couryard table, porch swing, and lots of little "hide-a-way places. It has been perfect! Charlie & Bonnie Gilbert, AZ Matt, Jennifer, Henry, Alice & Ellen Jolly- Oldest son & daughter-in-law to Charlie and Bonnie. What an incredible hide-a-way for little people. Our kids had so mch fun running around & playing with their cousins. The accomodations were perfect for our family. We enjoyed many dinners here that we all took turns cooking. What great memories for us and our kids! Matt & Jennifer Jolly- WI
