About the host

Hosted by Warren Goldberg

Host profile image
This rental is attached to my house, and is offered as a rental when I don't have guests. Thus, I maintain it as my house, not a rental. I have lived in the house for over 35 years and love Encinitas. My wife and I grew up back in NY/NJ. I graduated from Arizona State University, and really try to make sure that renters are happy.

Why they chose this property

Encinitas has a small beach town atmosphere, people are very friendly, and it has the best beach around. The rental unit is very private with its own entrance and typically I don't see our renters for days on end. But if you need something..I am close.

What makes this property unique

Close to moonlight beach, private backyard, and clean
