Pleasant Stay

Pleasant stay- nice sized, very clean updated older unit with comfortable seating and memory foam mattress, large TV, well supplied kitchen including spices. Our host thought of every amenity! Grounds were also well kept. Seemed like a good area, conveniently located within walking distance to everywhere. It was cooler than we expected for end of April, so we didn't make much use of the shaded nice little patio.

Ideal location and well equipped, if staying more than 5 days there was no change of bed linen meaning that you had to launder them in one day.

Great Condo in the Village

This is a very nicely kept 1 bedroom 1 bath condo. The owner is doing what it takes to keep the place up. It was comfortable, close to shops and the beach and walking distance to everywhere you want to be. It was a great trip and we will definitely look for this unit to be available again. Pam is communicative and friendly.

About the host

Hosted by Pam Kerckhoff

Host profile image
I am from Southern California. I have been living in Carlsbad for over 20 years and love it here!

Why they chose this property

I grew up being able to walk to the beach and to shopping. I loved it! I live in Carlsbad, but have to drive to the beach. So when an opportunity came up to buy a property that was very close to the beach and to the Village in Carlsbad I took it.

What makes this property unique

Properties don't become available in this development very often. What I love about this unit is that it is on the ground floor, has two private enclosed patios, and is in a sunny and quiet location in the complex.
