Our family had a first rate experience at this lovely home and enjoyed all the amenities of the pool, hot tub, view of the Pacific and beautiful grounds. In fact, our family agreed that it was the best of the many homes we have rented in the past. The owners were very cooperative and couldn't have been more pleasant to deal with. We hope to return.Recommended for: Age 55+, families with young children, families with teenagers, adventure seekers, girls getaway, sightseeing.
Owner response: We were very glad to provide great surroundings for this special family reunion diverse in age and interests and would love to have you back!

We held our family reunion at this great home this summer. The wonderful home and outdoor area allowed great space for visiting with each other. The outdoor patio and pool with views of the ocean and lagoon are spectacular. The large kitchen and open family room makes cooking and feeding a large group very easy. I would book this property again for this type of gathering.Recommended for: Age 55+, families with young children, families with teenagers, girls getaway.

Our thanks to you and your family for sharing your wonderful house in Cardiff by the Sea. As advertised it is a a perfect spot for families with rooms and space for every need. We enjoyed the gourmet kitchen, the spacious living/dining areas, the view to the ocean across the lagoon, the side yard for ball games, the outdoor living room, the fire pit, and most especially the pool and hot tub. We were so busy with all the local activities that the TV was rarely on. We walked the neighborhood, visited the local food stores, shopped in Encinitas, and tested 6 of the beaches up and down the coast. And of course, the San Diego Zoo.Only missing link was a golf game at Torrey Pines but we quickly learned how impossible that is. And the weather was picture perfect every day. We could not have asked for anything more for a vacation on the West Coast.Recommended for: Age 55+, families with young children, families with teenagers, sightseeing.

We rented this house in Cardiff by the Sea for a week in August. The house was perfect for our group of adults but would also work well for a family. The house had plenty of room and we really enjoyed the benefits of a fully stocked kitchen. The backyard is definitely what sold us on the rental. It is large enough for everyone to enjoy. We liked that the pool and hot tub are gated and there was a separate lawn area. There was still plenty of room to lounge around the pool, enjoy a meal outside or sit in the sunken outdoor living room and enjoy the beautiful views! A fully fenced yard enabled us to bring our dogs and not worry about them getting out. Easy access to the freeway and Del Mar racetrack. Short drive to grocery store and several bars and restaurants in Cardiff.Recommended for: Age 55+, families with young children, families with teenagers, pet owners.

We stayed at this great location the first week in August with our extended family: Me and my wife and kids, my two sisters and their families and my mom for a total of 6 adults and 5 kids. The place was quite roomy for all of us. We were able to all get together when we wanted but there were enough discrete areas that anyone could have privacy when they wanted it. The place was pretty much exactly as described: beautiful, contemporary, open, perfect for entertaining. We spent a lot of our week at the house, enjoying the pool, cooking huge meals, playing games. We all love to cook when we're on vacation. We have rented from VRBO for years and this is the best stocked kitchen I've ever seen. I made burgers and ribs for 14 on the grill all at one time. My sister and nieces baked cakes, pies, and scones. We had friends over for a lunch and all sat at the outdoor areas and enjoyed the view. The location was perfect. My wife is from Encinitas and she was worried about it being too far away from the beach, but it wasn't at all. In fact, because all the beaches were just a short drive away, we went to a different beach every day (and enjoyed the local eateries near each beach). Our only complaints were: The pool system was a little tricky to use. We pretty much never figured out how to get the hot tub hot. Sometimes we lucked into getting it hot, but the next time we did the same thing, it didn't work. Also, we are big readers and there wasn't very good reading light anywhere except in the bedrooms. But that's pretty much it. We'd rent this property again in a heartbeat.Recommended for: Families with young children, families with teenagers, pet owners, sightseeing.
