Family gettaway

The place was perfect for our family get-together. Kitchen was nicely stocked with the essentials for cooking. Lovely big dining table for us all to have dinner together. Lots of spaces for hangouts without being on top of one another. The proximity to the beach, park and shops could not have been better. I would be thrilled to return one day. It was a really special vacation.

Getaway by the Shore

The Modern Beach House was the perfect place for our extended family to enjoy a relaxed vacation. The kitchen/living room/dining room were all part of a large שרק so we could all be together when prepping meals. The house is very well equipped for fun at the beach. Any issues that came up were quickly dealt with by our host Rebecca.

Great summer beach house

We had a blast in Encinitas this weekend and would love to stay again! It was awesome that there were so many beach items available for us to use and we barely needed to use any of our personal items. Rebecca is a great host and so jealous of her property. I guess the only bummer was that there wasn’t a jacuzzi anymore but that was minor with all the activities we had planned.
