This property was beautiful and worked well for our family. The setup was great and the ocean views from the upper floor were lovely. Being half a block from the beach was fabulous, and worked especially well for our family with young kids. There were a couple of maintenance issues that popped up during our stay, but the host was very easy to work with and responded immediately to any messages. Overall, we had a wonderful trip and would stay here again.

Stunning property. We were in town for a funeral and were so grateful to stay in such an impeccably appointed, gorgeous home with beautiful ocean views. It had everything we needed and more. Perfect for a family with or without kids. Communication was easy and highly responsive. If this place is available, book it immediately.

We’ve stayed at this house for the last several years. The recent remodel made all the difference for us in returning as it was getting a bit rundown. Great job on the remodel and attention to detail with providing all the essentials! The yard is very dog friendly annd secure. The proximity from door to shore can’t be beat. We had a few issues at check in with the TV, missing lighter for the fire pit, and the hot tub was a bit funky. Shawna and team quickly addressed all issues and we were operational in no time. I’d recommend getting rid of the auto-on light feature in the master bathroom and entry way. Any toss or turn during the night would trigger the lights to turn on. We resolved it by placing a towel in front of the sensor. Other than that, it was a great trip! Thanks for the stay!

Thank you so much for coming back to stay with us year after year! It truly means a lot to hear that you enjoyed the remodel and noticed all the little details we’ve put into making the home comfortable and welcoming. We’re also so glad our team was able to quickly take care of the few issues at check in and get everything up and running for you. And thank you for the thoughtful feedback about the automatic lights. We’ll definitely look into adjusting those sensors so they’re less disruptive at night. We’re so happy you had a great trip, and we’d absolutely love to welcome you and your pups back again soon! Thank you again for being such wonderful returning guests!

Great location in Del Mar

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We would definitely return to this property! It is a great location super close to the beach. The house is very comfortable and clean! It appears newly remodeled and they did a beautiful job. The upstairs living room and kitchen area is bright with lots of natural light and you can see the ocean from the kitchen sink. There is lots of space with additional upstairs deck with table and seating off of the kitchen. It was also quiet. No loud train sound and only the very occasional car from the road behind if it was a loud motorcycle or sports car. Other than that, we didn't really notice the road.
