Perfect in every way
Perfect location- only a block from the beach and easy walk to restaurants. Tons on amenities- toiletries, spices, beach gear. Everything was clean, comfortable and quiet. Excellent customer service- they dug through the trash after we left to find our missing keys and mailed them to us! Would stay again. And again!

Great stay!
We had a great time at this vrbo. It’s super close to the beach, even our special needs 11 year old made it. There are stairs so if you have to pack for a family, you’ll need two decently strong adults to carry the packed wagon up and down the stairs plus the 3 flights of stairs at the beach. The wagon and ice chest we’re probably the biggest deal, but not enough of a problem to keep us from going again. We visited at the end of July and it was hot/humid to say the least. Luckily the AC is in the master and my kids are little and complain about being cold. Keep the windows open for that ocean breeze! if you are staying a few days, pack extra ziplock bags, tin foil or anything you might need to keep open food safe. Other than that, it was a great stay and we’d stay again.

Location!
Location is EASY walk to the beach. Lands you between lifeguard station 36 and 37. Tamarack during. Enough said! Close to town. Easy ride (bike or onewheel) to Encinitas or around Carlsbad. Place: well stocked for kitchen items and spice rack. Lots of bath and beach towels. Beds were Comfortable. No AC needed. It’s THE COAST! Fans were plenty. Overall, spacious. Parking space is key! No parking otherwise due to beach visitors. Management team and communication was easy and prompt. I would stay here again!

Great value with a great location
We had a full house with 5 family members...two adults and three teenagers...and everyone had a great time. The property's proximity to the beach and Carlsbad Village is excellent, and we took full advantage of the location. We also used the kitchen quite a bit and the unit's dishwasher and washer/dryer came in very handy. Overall, the unit (3) was very nice and had just about all the amenities we needed, including bogey boards. I would mention that the towels/linens and and some of the beach items were a bit worn, but we managed just fine. The only hiccup was that the unit was not quite ready when we arrived, and the additional beach chairs we requested were not there. However, I contacted Steve, the property manager, and he immediately took care of everything. His responsiveness and genuine concern for us was sincerely appreciated...I was very impressed! We will be booking this property again. It's an exceptional value and the location is awesome!

Lovely stay
The apartment was very well equipped and well located too. The management checked in with us several times to make sure that everything was in working order. They replaced the toaster very quickly when we told them it wasn't working, which we appreciated.

Great location,spacious place
We enjoyed our stay here. We were about one block from the beach. The condo has large and pleasant rooms, with a separate living room, a kitchen with a 6-person table and two bedrooms plus two baths. The management company was very responsive. The only downsides were that the internet occasionally waivered in and out and the heater was noisy. We got used to it, though, and had a nice stay.
