About this property

Oceanfront Dolphin Views at the Edge of the USA. 2-Bed 1-Bath Pet-Friendly.

Relax on the patio deck and watch surfers and dolphins play in the waves, while stunning sunsets and the refreshing ocean breeze fill the air. Pelicans, doves, and hummingbirds flutter by the windows, adding to the serene atmosphere.

Just 90 seconds away, your toes will be in the sand at Stone Steps Beach. When the tide's out, take a leisurely stroll for miles along the golden shoreline, collecting seashells along the way. You’re also within walking distance to charming cafes, restaurants, and shops along Highway 101.

This cozy 2-bedroom, 1-bath home offers ocean views from the kitchen, living room, and patio. Fully furnished and eco-friendly, this green home runs on solar energy and recycles waste. Even the soaps, shampoos, tissue paper, and paper towels provided are recycled and donated to help those in need in Encinitas. The partially used amenities also support efforts to fight preventable diseases in the area—consider yourself part of the solution.

Let the soothing sounds of the ocean waves lull you to sleep in this peaceful retreat. It’s an experience you'll treasure.

Pacific Paradise

Property even more beautiful than pictures. On a cliff overlooking the beach. Cool, soft ocean breezes every single day. Dolphins cruise by daily. The home is furnished with anything you would want or need. Very close to downtown Encinitas with great places to eat. Beaches are amazing. The host was very pleasant and accommadating. Best time ever!

Wonderful!

This is a wonderful property that is exactly as described. The sounds of the ocean were what we wanted, and this what this superb place provided. The setting is safe, friendly and easily accessed. Brooke thoughtfully created a welcoming unit. We enjoyed the edible treats, as well as the bottle of Sparkling Cider. We loved watching the surfers, dolphins, and memorable sunsets from the deck. We plan to return!

What the Doctor Ordered!!

Was in need of a respite that included ocean breezes and the sound of the waves. This rental fit the bill and more! Large patio for lounging and soaking in the scent and sounds of the Pacific. Ocean views from the living room and well appointed kitchen. What more could you ask for?!! Very clean and comfortable. Brooke was very responsive and helpful with any questions we had.

24/7 Ocean

The pictures don’t do it justice. It’s so nice. I’d return in a heart beat. The neighborhood is wonderful, friendly and no night noise except the ocean sounds. Everything we needed and more was provided. Our dogs loved it except the stairs. They were new to stairs and going down them was a challenge for my doodle. I think a picture of the stairs would be helpful to anyone. Not as deterrent but just fyi. Again fabulous place.

Amazing beach house

What a gorgeous house! The views of the ocean and the proximity to the beach are absolutely breathtaking. The house is will stocked with nice linens and towels including beach towels, plus toiletries and some kitchen essentials which are super helpful for international touring travellers like us. Oh and the cupboard of beach toys and chairs etc is such a great idea - we did a lot of bodyboarding! Also lots of fans and aircon and bug screens which helped us to stay cool. Encinitas is a gorgeous little town to stay in with lovely shops and restaurants all within walking distance and Neptune is a super safe and pretty neighbourhood. Brooke was super communicative and welcoming throughout and I can’t recommend highly enough as a host and a house. We already miss it!!

Just perfect!

Thank You Brook for sharing your lovely home with us. I got a little nervous right before coming because I didn’t notice it was pet friendly and my husband has allergies. There were no problems because the house is cleaned so well. The floors are tiled and the master bed is too high for most dogs to jump on. You will love the view and 1 min walk to corner beach access (watch the surfers). The location is a 15 min walk to good restaurants, acupuncturist and farmers market on Sunday. Also, parking right out front! FYI- note that the bathroom is through the kitchen which is not private with one bedroom but accessible to all. We were here 10 days and would love to return.

Surprise 60th Birthday Celebration

Fabulous weekend with family and friends to celebrate hubby's 60th birthday. Brooke was a great host, and her place was perfect for our crew. We ordered catering from Taco Stand, and Ice Cream Cakes with funny photos printed on top from Cali Cream in Encinitas for a super easy feast. Thanks to all for the local hospitality!
