COME SEE THE NEW STONESTEPS AND MOONLIGHT BEACHES AFTER APRIL/MAY 2024 SAND REPLENISHMENT PROJECT! In April & May 2024, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers completed a massive sand restoration project in Encinitas that significantly improved the beaches. Per the City of Encinitas website, the project involved "the installation of 50-foot-wide beach fill along a 7,800 foot-long stretch of shoreline (from Beacon's to Boneyards) using 340,000 cubic yards of compatible sand, with re-nourishment every 5 years on average over a 50-year period." Please feel free to Google "Encinitas Sand Replenishment" for further details, and you can see the new look in pictures posted in the listing here!

Would definitely go back
I rented the house from Oct 13 to Nov 10th for myself and my son’s family we were 5 and had plenty of room to spread around inside and outside, really loved the place. The place was clean and had everything that we needed. Family safe neighbourhood and beach really close by, 1 minute walk if you don’t mind the stairs or below 10 minutes walk for a full equipped beach including playground, toilets and showers. I would definitely recommend and rent again.

Loved it...
Great house. Great location. Everything you need is within walking distance. Encinitas was hit with some major winter storms this year. Beach access and options were limited for sure but Mother Nature always wins. We'll be back.

Glorious Home with Beautiful Fine Art!
My husband and I stayed here so our two adult son's, who live in the area, could join us for a couple nights and we could all have a spacious bedroom with very comfortable beds. The house was gorgeous and we enjoyed walking to the beach, town and out for occasional meals or coffee. My older son was recovering from surgery and had to work and do homework from the home, but he enjoyed hanging out in different rooms with the beautiful Fine Art which made you feel like you were outside at the beach. We would definitely stay here again and would recommend it to friends and family!

Nice property close to the beach
The management group was professional and responsive. We enjoy walking and with this property a walk to town or to the break easy. A well appointed kitchen, comfortable beds made it all the better.
