Great stay in this lovely spot in a nice neighborhood close to Encinitas/Leucadia restaurants. Our host was attentive and made sure we had all we needed, supplying the place with little extras and ensuring it was clean and tidy. The tree-filled back yard is a welcomed quiet oasis in an otherwise busy area. Highly recommend.

Fantastic spot in the heart of So Cal surfer country. Walk to see the sun set over the ocean at Beacon's beach, or even closer, Orpheus Park. Or just stay in the magical backyard in the evening as the twinkling solar lights come on. My 5-day stay with my pup could not have been better. Kara was a very responsive host and there were special touches throughout, including some delicious chocolates. The beach, restaurants, the freeway are all super close. And yet the space is very quiet and peaceful. Perfect.

Perfect getaway spot

I had a wonderful stay at the Tropical Treehouse of Love in Leucadia! Kara's place was cute, clean, and comfy, and the location was great. She was the perfect host and made everything easy; she even left a few treats for my pup, Max. I would definitely stay there again and also recommend to friends and family.

The property was just as described and the host was excellent with little welcoming amenities. Beautiful backyard to enjoy time away and then nestle into a home of warmth and charm. What a neat community and we received some great recommendations from the host on what to do and see. Thank you!

Courteous Host / Great Getaway Spot

Kara was a great communicator throughout our stay (including pre/post) and we couldn't have asked for a better host! She has a lovely backyard spot with easy access to Encinitas (3-4 min drive). We were greeted with little snacks and beverages which was much appreciated after a long drive. We would absolutely return on a heart beat. Very much appreciated the hospitality and accomodations. 10 Star over 5 stars.

Tropical Tree of Love This Place!

My husband and I along with our two very tiny Chihuahuas found this guest house quite comfortable. It was a perfect space and private access to the backyard was awesome for our pets. Thank you, Kara for the drinks in the fridge. The neighborhood was very nice and quiet and the private entrance to the guest house was a plus. Very comfortable and cozy.

Lush Have

The interior lodgings are great, but it’s the setting that elevates it to ‘special.’ The garden is expansive, beautiful, peaceful. We brought our blind dog and he was beside himself. He had a better trip than we did.

That's so wonderful to hear, thank you. I am really happy the pup had a great time. It's a little slice of Hawaii/Bali here in Leucadia. Come back with him anytime.

About the host

Hosted by Kara Watkins

Host profile image
My name is Kara Watkins and we are raising our three young boys here in Leucadia, CA. We are always at the beach playing in the sand or in the waves. I am from Northern CA (Santa Cruz) but I have lived in San Diego 20 years now. Leucadia is a wonderful laid back surf town with epic world class waves. There are a ton of great places to dine and visit while in Leucadia/Encinitas/Cardiff and I am happy to give you all my favorites. If you like live music, hit the Belly Up, one of my favorite local venues. I am a local realtor specializing in beach communities along the Coast of San Diego and I am SO proud to call Leucadia "home".

Why they chose this property

It's a little slice of Hawaii and Bali right here in Encinitas/Leucadia. Very private tropical setting and walking distance to town and the beach. This is what relaxing is all about.
