The property was just as advertised- very cool & cozy. Perfect location in north county San Diego, with easy access to Solana, Cardiff, Encinitas & also south to LaJolla! Owners are super nice and helpful, would definitely stay here again.
Pros:
- Amazing location
- Stunning ocean view
Cons:
- The couch is seriously stained, not very inviting to sit on (my in-laws preferred the dining table chairs.)
- We initially couldn't find the washing machine and dryer, even though the owner had mentioned they were under the carport.
Unfortunately, my in-laws, for whom we booked the apartment, didn't have the best time:
On their arrival day, they were told about a water leak issue, and they had to go outside at night to open and close a valve to use water. We get that these things happen, but it was a bit of a bummer that the owner didn't get a plumber to fix it the same day. We found out about the leak early in the evening on the check-in day, and the plumber didn't show up until the next day. What's more, while the owner was nice on the phone and apologized for the trouble, they didn't offer a refund for that night, which we thought would've been fair.
Then, there was another hiccup when the code lock stopped working, and my in-laws got locked out one morning. The owner told them where to find a spare key, but it turned out there was no key because the cleaner had taken it by mistake. So, my in-laws had to wait for over an hour overall until the cleaner showed up and they could finally get in. Again, the owner didn't offer any compensation.
In the end, I reached out to the owner and asked for some compensation for these incidents. They agreed to waive the cleaning fee and give us a $100 refund.

Thank you for letting us know about these issues. The pipe burst was beyond our control and was fixed within 24 hours. The guests were credited for their inconvenience. One of the licks did malfunction, but the problem was corrected within 60 min. The couch cushion covers have been washed or replaced , thank you for bringing this to our attention. Safe travels!
Property is 1 mile from the beach. Can easily walk there. House is clean but couch needs to be updated or replaced. Beds were comfortable and deck is nice and has ocean views.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. The couch cushions have been cleaned or replaced and the house thoroughly cleaned. Safe travels!
My daughter and I had an enjoyable and comfortable stay. We loved the walk up the hill from the village and the views (and windows) were terrific. The house was well stocked with kitchen essentials which was great since we usually prepared meals there. The owner was very friendly and super responsive. Just a note, in case it matters, the property is small, the angles are a bit funky and the furniture well used, but functional.
Small, quiet space with great view from deck. Deck was best spot for coffee in the AM and wine in the PM. Some nice updates in kitchen and bath. Furniture should be updated!
The house is in a very nice section of del mar. The yard is typical for San Diego area- on a steep hill. The house has a nice living room, kitchen was well supplied, beds were a little uncomfortable, but we are older. The view is beautiful and there is a lot to do really close. There is no AC, and it was a little warm when we got there (82). After a day, it cooled off. It was a little difficult to get the owner, but the cleaning service was still there when we got there at check-in, so she gave us a code. We had a nice time overall.
This unit is bright with great terrace & views. Property owner was very responsive. Unit could have used basic amenities like hand soap & coffee, but other than that it was nice, quiet & comfortable.
Amazing location and views! Well stocked kitchen (Le Creuset, good knives, good pans, and didn’t feel like it was someone’s old kitchen stuff from college), beach towels, great shower, and comfortable beds. Quiet neighborhood and felt like home!
Lovely little gem of a place.
Outdoor furniture needs some major TLC.
Indoors is beautiful and has all the essentials. Beds super comfy. Kitchen well kitted out. Shower was AWESOME. Lamps would be nice as I’m not a fan of overhead lighting. Del Mar was a sweet place and the beach was lovely.
House is quite, the bedrooms are very small no side tables only beds and one dresser, the furniture are older, kitchen is very nice, bathroom is tiny but nice, and outdoor patio is great with nice views
Such an amazing place. Awesome views. Unique decor and amenities. The patio was awesome. We loved our stay so much.

Memorial Day Weekend
Based on the reviews and location we were excited to stay at this property. However, our experience was not great.
First and foremost, we could not get into the home and despite multiple calls we recived no help or call back. The emergency contact in the emails, is linked to another number and did not help at all. Once we learned that the emergency number was not the correct number we were finally able to get into the property.
Additionally, throughout the whole weekend there was no internet. The unit next door seemed to have internet after a apperently neighborhood outage but our property never received any use of the internet. This was a big part of weekend that we were not able to enjoy.
The two of us enjoyed our stay in Del Mar at Treehouse 2. The ocean view from the deck was extraordinary. Could also see the ocean from both bedrooms. Our visit was brief but memorable.
Enjoyed a very relaxing stay here. All communication was timely and accurate. House was very comfortable and located in a quiet neighborhood with a great view of the ocean. Very easy access to services in town and the beach. Would stay here again!
