Marc! Thank you so much for taking such good care of the house and for the tasty treat you shared. Glad you were able to enjoy the house and the one of a kind location Del Mar brings to the memory making. See you next time!
Great location! So many awesome places to walk to and a beautiful view of the sunset each day! There was plenty of room for our family or 4, and all the beds were really comfortable! The only disappointment was that the patio couch in the pictures had been replaced by a table. We were definitely daydreaming of lounging in the sun on the patio couch, and there was just a table and chairs there, so no room to lounge. Otherwise everything was awesome!

Grace! The location and view-complete with evening sunsets-are definitely the highlight of the house! Apologies for the missing outdoor lounge couch-a delightful place to relax and reflect-it was damaged and had to be laid to rest. The good news is new patio furniture (table chairs and lounge couch has been ordered and awaiting delivery! So keep that daydream alive and forward to sun soaking and lounging on that patio couch when it’s time for another visit to Del Mar!
What a wonderfully serene property this is. The hubub of downtown Del Mar is just a block away for when we wanted to go to shops and restaurants, and less than a block in the other direction was the Pacific. The house is so comfy and cozy and has lovely beachy decor. More than anything, tho, was the great care taken of us by Lauren was a gift. I’d stay here again at this gem of a home with a gem of a host over and over.

We just returned from an unforgettable New Year’s getaway at a beautiful house in Del Mar, and we couldn't be more thrilled with our experience! **Location:** The property is perfectly situated, just a short stroll from the stunning beach and vibrant local shops and restaurants. We loved being able to enjoy morning walks along the coast and having easy access to everything we needed.**Host:** Our host was exceptionally welcoming and accommodating. They went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay and communication was excellent. Best host experience. **Overall Experience:** We enjoyed cozy evenings in the spacious living area and appreciated the well-equipped kitchen. We’re already looking forward to our return next month!

Robin! Mi casa Su casa-the location and the property are compliments to the village of Del Mar and your visit is the highlight of both! I’m glad you were able to enjoy the beach and the activities in the village just a short walk away. The house and the beach and all the good eats are waiting for your return ! See you next time !
Ideal location for a beach vacation. Very short walk (5 mins) to playground and beach and only a block away from shops and restaurants. Lauren was a great host and quickly responded to any questions or needs. Kitchen is very well stocked and Lauren has provided everything you need for a day at the beach (umbrella, chairs, towels, etc).

So happy you enjoyed your visit to Del Mar and the property was able to house the memories you made! It was my pleasure and honor to welcome you and your family home. Hope to see you the next time you are looking to share some time in Del Mar!
We have stayed in Del Mar area several times and this house is perfect for hanging out on a beach weekend. Our 23 year old son and his girlfriend met us here and we hung out at the beach, walked to restaurants, ran along the river...location can't be beat. The house is updated and is private with plenty of privacy between the master and other bedrooms. Will be back!

So happy to host your memorable visit to Del Mar. Time spent making memories with family is the most important thing. Time spent with family at the beach cannot be beat ! I’m glad you enjoyed the property and the amazing location of the property. Your home away from home and Del Mars beautiful beach will be awaiting your next visit! Looking forward 🥂
Definitely one of the most well stocked places that we have stayed at. Probably the only thing that you need to bring extra are chairs and an umbrella. The area was great. Close to shopping and restaurants. It was about a 10 minute walk to the beach. We had a great time!
