Pros Fabulous views, Great location, Nice layout of rooms very well stocked with kitchen, bath, and safty Cons Not cleaned when arrived, Mstr toilet not work 4 days, rug in living room not just dirty but filthy but was repalced quickly dead plants on patios. Not in the VRBO description: 15 steep outside steps to condo, washer and dryer outside unit but free not coin op. Could be wonderful place with upkeep and work maybe this review increase its care.
With amazing views of the Pacific, we really enjoyed our time in this roomy condo with all of the amenities. Rae went out of her way to make sure we were comfortable and had whatever we needed. Groceries, beaches, and parks are all close by for our daily walk, but we also enjoyed just strolling around the condo community.

We really enjoyed Barbara and Steve. They were one of our best guests. Everything was left clean and tidy. Would love to have them back.
My husband and I spent a few months at this property and had a wonderful experience. It is a lovely place which is was very well located and convenient to shopping, restaurants, health clubs and major highways. The apartment was well appointed with extremely comfortable beds,
Large model smart tv’s, and an air fryer we loved using. It is a cozy two bedroom apartment with no space to spare as the beautiful Asian wood furniture and ornamental pieces take up most of the space; but the sunset view made it smashing. The owner and her property manager were extremely responsive and made major costly repairs when the electrical system was overtaxed and required a costly overhaul and new paint job after the repairs. They have plans to put in new larger windows before we return next year and they keep improving the property.
The limitations of this property are structural. It is an upstairs unit and the laundry downstairs is a free community facility with machines that are at best mediocre. Also if you are a senior, there are no elevators so beware of heavy luggage and overpacking as we did. Also the pool is not heated and the jacuzzi doesn’t make it close to 100 degrees hence they are almost always empty in winter. The sauna which could be a godsend has been down since COVID and there are no plans ti make it operational. What you get is a lovely place to stay in Carlsbad with the assurance that your hosts will do everything they can to make your stay wonderful.
There were quite a few difficulties we faced with this property manager:
1. No covid safety and unexpected check-ins. Landlord (Rae) frequently arrived with 0 notice at the apartment, without a mask (during the COVID-19 pandemic) to check on us. This made us feel incredibly unsafe and our privacy was violated. We also deserve 24 hr notice before any visits, this is clear in California law.
2. Mail and packages. Rae did not allow us to have any mail or packages delivered which made our 3 month stay quite difficult. USPS was not able to help us get this sorted out.
3. Lying about move out fees - Rae charged hundreds of dollars in move out fees even though during a final walk-through with Mrs. Stone, the property owner, she didn't mention any of these. She blamed us for issues that already existed with the property before moving out. Again during the move out inspection she arrived without a mask. This ruined the move out process.
Overall, this place looks great on the website but beware the landlord. I would not book as there are many similar places in Carlsbad where you will not have the hassle of dealing with Rae.

These gentlemen were treated with care and kind responses. Much of the items in my penthouse were brand new. They were noisy with complaints from neighbors. My project manager, Rae had to check out all the problems. She called them to ask permission to enter.. Furniture was moved, beds sheets stained and torn, new towels were left behind the BBQ, as well as the BBQ left dirty. There was sand everywhere. This unit is always given in pristine condition. These gentlemen left with the patio screens with holes and TV and sound system unplugged and not replugged to work with Spectrum. Had to call in numerous contractors to the tune of over $2500.00. We only took $300.00 Dollars of there deposit to cover the BBQ cleaning and bed sheets. I sent all the pictures to the Claims department to prove how they left my beautiful unit. Sorry they feel this way. Rae did everything legally and above board. The guys even got a discount because they were with Google. I just want was fair to cover the numerous losses these gentlemen left me with at this unit.
The property is well-appointed with a beautiful view. Across the street is a large park and shopping and restaurants are close by. The best part, however, is how welcoming the hosts were to me and family. We felt right at home and it made for a great experience.
Elissa and Rae are exceptional as "Land Ladies". They quickly became new friends and very accommodating. A few minor adjustments were made to make our 33 day stay most agreeable. A single car garage was also included with the unit. The amenities described with VRBO Listing are accurate. The ladies even replaced an aging land-line telephone owing to us not having a US cellphone.
The COVID-19 cut out vacation by five days. Elissa offered a compensation since it was neither the fault of either party.
Elissa and Rae, Thank you both for your excellent hospitality and attentiveness to our comfort.

The views are simply amazing here and we have really enjoyed our stay. The property is quiet, clean and charming. This condo has everything necessary to make you feel like you are home (comfortable 2 bed - 2 full bats - walk-in closets - open updated kitchen - luxurious linens- multiple porch/patio areas. Location is great - so many things within easy access - great parks and walking paths too. Swimming pool and laundry are convenient and well-maintained. Ms. Stone and Rae are a delight (always friendly, helpful and knowledgeable) and Flora is sweet as can be!
