Perfect Stay for our Wedding Weekend

The property was amazing. So many rooms for our group on the inside and plenty of amenities outside to entertain us. If we had one criticism it would be that the pool could use more chaise given the capacity of the home - some of us were not able to lay out in the beautiful California sun.

Disliked: Communication
The house was immaculate, absolutely beautiful and exactly like the pictures. The only problem is the terrible communication. Maybe it’s just because I had my wedding here, I’m sure it’s great for just a simple stay. Every message seemed like I was getting a reply from a different person and wouldn’t reply for days sometimes or I’d have to ask the same thing multiple times. There are more things but I’ll leave it out. Overall don’t have a special event here just a simple vacation and it will be amazing.

Perfect for our Multi-Generation Vacation

Lovely place and a quick hop to the beach. There's a grocery store handy, as well as a lot of place to get take out. We enjoyed all of the outdoor perks like the pool, hot tub, ping pong, the swings, and a great outdoor dining area. If it's available when we head to Oceanside again, we'd definitely go back.

Amazing Property!!!!

We had the most amazing time. It was perfect for a group of our size. We have stayed at a lot of properties over the years and this one was by far the best. It has absolutely everything you need. I wish I could give 10 stars. If asked, could they do anything different…I would say look into the internet, it went in and out throughout our stay. For us that was not a huge issue because we were not using it most of the time.

Backyard Paradise

Had a lovely time at this vacation rental. The house was wonderful with plenty of space and large master suite. The the outdoor balcony off the master was great for taking in the sunset, having drinks, and watching my kids having fun in the gorgeous pool and hot tub. The backyard space is spacious and the pool/hot tub were amazing and the perfect temp. The backyard was made for fun with a BBQ and fun games to keep you busy. The kitchen was well appointment with all the amenities you would need. The house location was convenient for touring various places near La Costa, Del Mar, La Jolla and San Diego. Highly recommend and would stay again.
