Stephanie was a fantastic host, very communicative and pleasant and was diligent in making our stay as relaxing as possible! The home is located in a beautiful walkable neighborhood which was my main priority, close to the beach, restaurants, shops. I also really appreciated the extras the house provided, especially for the little ones! A pack n’ play and a high chair we’re available, books, toys, and all the beach toys, wagon, and wetsuits were so fantastic, not to mention the outdoor shower that helped keep the kids and the house clean. The house was great for gathering and family meals. The kitchen was organized and easy to find your way around when cooking, we all fit at the large dining table, and the fireplace made for a cozy evening when it was chilly out.

Great weekend with my sister and mom! ##### Aimee M. Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Brian K. Feb 14, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect house for mid-winter get-away We shared this lovely, well-located, super-equipped home for a week with my sister & brother-in-law. The kitchen had everything we could possible need for cooking—including a Vitamix, spices, EVERYTHING!! Stephanie was a responsive & friendly host! The house was equipped with beach chairs, boogie boards, beach towels & even a wagon. She even had yoga mats & blocks (with cleaning spray) that we used at one of the many nearby yoga studios. The location was ideal for morning walks, beach walks, & an easy walk to the many restaurants, coffee shops & stores in Leucadia & Encinitas! Impeccably clean, comfortable, with high-end towels, sheets, shower supplies! We would definitely stay there again!! Stephanie made everything SO EASY!! ##### Brian K.

The house was spotless and had all the essentials organized from beach towels and toys to kitchen utensils and detergent. The yard is beautiful and was a perfect spot for us to enjoy our morning coffee. The little touches from the host did not go unnoticed by any of us! The location is great! Walking distance to 3 of the beaches and multiple restaurants and shops. And the communication with the owner from beginning to end was a breeze! Overall a wonderful experience. ##### Kimberly R.

First, it is the cleanest home my family has ever rented...spotless and well organized. (Even my OCD dad said to mention that he was impressed by how well appointed and clean this home is). Second, it is in a fabulous location in Encinitas. You can walk to the beach, to great restaurants, and into town. Third, it has everything you need for a family beach vacation: boogie boards, beach towels, beach chairs, buckets...and a brilliant outdoor shower to wash off the sand. And then there is the layout of the house...it has enough room for everyone to have their own space to chill out in. The master suite (with its enormous bathroom and closet) is at one end, and the other two bedrooms and another full bathroom (one with a queen bed and one with 4 bunks) are at the other end giving everyone privacy. There is an air hockey table my kids loved, lawn games, a spotless bbq, a great outdoor table we ate at multiple times and fast wifi. We can't wait to go back. ##### beth r.

I can’t say enough good things about it! The owner Stephanie has gone above and beyond to make guests feel welcome and comfortable. We arrived to a beautiful welcome basket and note. Everything in the house is top of the line, well organized, and stocked with the little things you wouldn’t expect in a rental like good coffee! The two E bikes were so much fun to cruise up the hills in the neighborhood . The neighborhood is beautiful for a morning walk and close to the beach. Towels and sheets were soft, beds were so comfortable and the house is remarkably clean. We really enjoyed the home and would definitely stay here again!! Thank you Stephanie for putting in so much care and effort- it really makes a difference :) ##### Camille R. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveler Jul 5, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A perfect beach home! We loved our time at this beautiful home! The beds were comfortable, the home was very clean and the host communicated well. Just a block or so from the beach and within biking distance to many shops and restaurants. The eBikes, air hockey, beach equipment all came in handy as well. We would definitely stay here again! ##### Verified traveler Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### sue d.
