Holiday Stay in Encinitas

Great outdoor space with plenty of seating, tables, views, sunsets and night skies, all with the comforting warmth of the firepit. The constant sound of waves, pods of dolphins and distant ship traffic made the stay even more memorable. This VRBO had one of the cleanest gas grills that I've seen in years. Walkability score was high with easy access to the Beach and Downtown shopping and restaurants. Finally, Prager Brothers Artisan Bread is a must, but they sell out early.

Our favorite place to stay!

This little beach home is our very favorite place to stay! We keep coming back with our family year after year. It is in a great location (steps away from beach access), it is just the right size for our family of 5, and it has unbeatable view of the ocean!

Great vacation spot!

We had an excellent stay at this property. We've stayed in the neighborhood the last 5 years and this was the best spot. The neighborhood is nice with great access to the beach. The deck offers a great view and living space during the day or night. Everything was clean and the kitchen was spacious and stocked with everything we needed to cook. Finally, the owner was attentive and professional before and during our stay. We would definitely return to this house in the future!!

Sounds of Ocean Waves

Nothing beats sleeping with the slider open, falling asleep to the sounds of ocean waves. Perfect set up for a week of relaxation. Such a fun trip with a terrific home base. The house had everything we needed and the backyard worked perfect for our doodle dogs. Plus the downstairs neighbor couldn’t have been nicer. We can’t forget to mention the location. So close to restaurants, etc. Looking forward to staying again.

Wonderful Stay

We had a very nice stay for our Christmas vacation. The house was exactly as advertised. We enjoyed sitting on the patio and on our last morning there we saw lots of dolphins swimming right behind the house. It was awesome! The host was very helpful with information if we needed it and had a fast response time. We didn't have any issues with the house. We couldn't figure the TV out at first because there is no cable. It only has streaming capabilities, so we just watch Netflix and Youtube at night. We loved the location because it was close to everything. We rented a car, and it was not a far drive to San Diego. The parking outside the house wasn't a problem and we had a large SUV. The master bath has a jacuzzi tub which I was thrilled because that is what I have at home. It looks very old, and I would imagine it was the original one when the house was built but it worked, and I enjoyed taking hot baths. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend!

Gorgeous views, beautiful property

What a lovely home with stunning views. The outdoor patio is to die for with such lovely ocean views. The home is well equipped in a nice neighborhood. It is set above the ocean with just about a 50 yard walk to steps down to the beach. Restaurants and ammenities close by. We would absolutely stay here again and recommend it to our friends!

Gorgeous Cliffside Retreat

We stay in Encinitas often, and finding Stefanie's cliffside retreat made the weekend even more amazing. The pelicans flew over the beautiful patio multiple times a day and the dolphins would swim by frequently, too. The yard is perfect for a visiting pet and the family to relax. The inside is spacious, comfortable, clean and well-stocked. It's a quiet neighborhood next to all the good restaurants and great walking to Beacon's or Grandview (surf spots)! Thank you so much for the perfect stay!

This property is a very special place. We loved having our coffee on the back patio watching dolphins, surfers, even a fun group of endurance swimmers. The kitchen has everything you need.
