Beautiful views of the ocean! Wonderful to wake up to the sounds of waves each day. House was clean and spacious. Plenty of amenities to make your stay comfortable. Very quick walk to stone step beach. Host was quick to respond. Amazing markets near by (check out seaside market in Cardiff) Hope to return!

Beautiful property, as we know from two prior visits. Smooth check-in, house was clean and very well stocked. Our only complaint is that all of the knives need to be replaced, not because of sharpness, but rather the stains. This however is not enough to back off of an excellent rating. We will be back (and hope the owners take the constructive advice to replace the knives)!

The views

This was a wonderful week of relaxation with family enjoying gorgeous views. We hope to go back soon. It’s a great location with restaurants and stores around. The house had everything we needed for cooking at home. The patio was the best part! Sitting out by the fire pit watching the ocean!

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!

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.

Beautiful home and awesome location. You can not beat the view from the back yard. Kitchen is nice with plenty of utensils, dishes, bowls, glasses, coffee mugs etc. Beds were perfect and very comfy. I agree with other reviews in that the bathrooms while clean and functional could definitely use some upgrading. Something to note with dogs. It’s great that a place of this caliber allows pets but the owners do not want them left alone in the house. I do understand why they’d say that but think about anytime you want to go grab dinner, a coffee, head to the beach (steps away) someone must stay behind with the pet. It’s just something to consider. Also, the back patio isn’t really designed for pets to go potty so you’re now walking them through the neighborhood every time they need to go. The neighborhood seemed pretty good with their yards being used by lots of dogs though. Just something to consider dependent on your dog and situation. There are also atleast 2 parks within 1 Mile walking distance that allow dogs and have off leash hours as well. Overall, highly recommend. Great location, view and access to the beach!
