Summer tradition

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our 48th year to DMBC through Dave Stubbs did not disappoint. As always the location can’t be beat. The condo was comfortable, well stocked and the perfect gathering for family time. We appreciated the unbelievable customer service from Tyler and crew at Dave Stubbs as they navigated through unexpected complex roof replacement. Another fabulous year we are already counting the days until next year.

Great location

The property is in a great location and is well stocked. I was initially hesitant to book because of previous reviews about the cleanliness of the floors and unfortunately we had the exact same experience. Within minutes of taking shoes and socks off, our kids’ feet were covered in dirt and filth. The floors need an extremely deep clean as that is honestly our only complaint. I would have given it 4 stars for the floors if there weren’t other reviews saying the same thing, so that’s why I went with 3 stars.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: As always the Del Mar Beach Club does not disappoint. The kitchen in this unit is amazing and perfect for a family gathering. Missed having a BBQ and patio table out back, hoping to see those next year to really complete the vacation vibe and help with easy vacation BBQ meals. The washer went out prior to our stay, and Dave Stubbs provided excellent customer service for the inconvenience. The new washer was fantastic. Have visited Solana Beach for over 45 years now, and leave each year counting down the days to our return. The Del Mar Beach Club and Dave Stubbs as well as wonderful places like this unit are a huge part of that excitement.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The unit was nice and we enjoyed our stay. Close walk to pools or ocean. Quiet clean complex. My only complaints are that the floors could’ve been cleaner, throw rugs washed or switched between new guests and shower curtains washed or replaced. The grill needs new grates. We couldn’t use the grill because the grates looked very rusty. Overall, a decent property but needs a little extra cleaning in some areas. Beach was beautiful. A lot of stairs but worth it. Location was great. We enjoyed hiking at Torrey Pines (10 min drive), kayaking at La Jolla, Padres game, downtown San Diego, and visiting Del Mar, Cardiff by the Sea, Encinitas and Carlsbad. My daughter went to Disneyland with her family which was a little over an hour drive with no traffic. I would rent through Stubbs again. Everyone I dealt with was kind and professional. We would definitely come back to this area!

Filthy

We noticed immediately upon entering the house that it was filthy. After an hour our socks were black on the bottoms. There were ants crawling all over inside the house (including in the beds). The walls were black and sticky in areas. The property managers response was to send someone by to mop the floor and give us ant poison. Almost all of the dishes in the cabinets looked like they had been eaten off of and put back in the cabinet. The outside deck was falling apart and had random old broken junk laying all around. We spent a lot of money on this rental and were so disgusted for our whole stay. When we checked out and told the property manager our experience they said “call us next time and we will steer you away from the filthy ones” — so they clearly knew that this place was disgusting, but rented it out anyway. We would never rent this place or from that property manager again.
