About the host
Hosted by Cyndi Bausch
My husband and I are Southern California natives and enjoy managing this vacation rental home, and remodeling and selling homes nearby. (I'm a licensed real estate broker.) We live locally and are happy to help our guests enjoy Carlsbad and nearby attractions!
Why they chose this property
We love the beauty and calming effects of the beaches nearby, and the sunny weather is the best anywhere! The backyard pool, spa, BBQ, dining areas and grassy lawn make this the perfect family celebration spot. We grew up in Southern California and love it here!
What makes this property unique
The Mediterrenean style of the property is truly unique and fun! The furnishings were recently remodeled ... and the location is excellent... near the beach, Carlsbad Village, Legoland, shopping, restaurants, golf courses, racetrack, Sea World, parks and so many more attractions. The spacious open rooms allow the family to enjoy time together.... yet provide several relaxing getaway areas.
