The property has a nice kitchen and is comfortable overall, with a great private porch. Owners were responsive to texting and questions. I recommend, especially if you like to walk rather than drive. ##### Mary R.

It was located close to everything that you could need, most importantly the ocean and the unique town of Encinitas. By close, I mean walking distance! Doris and Eric were accessible and responsive making the logistics of the trip easy. Bravo, their dog, was a plus who was hard to leave, and I’m not a dog owner. All in all, a terrific stay for my peace of mind and well being! ##### Arnold M.

Eric is a really great host we got along great so all in all, I would stay there again I love the town of Encinitas And this place works just fine. It’s a real nice place. I really enjoyed myself.

The property has a very nice expensive architecture and landscaping and Encinitas is awesome. The only reason this is not 5 stars for everything is the proximity to the freeway. When you are inside you could consider it white noise, but outside it is pretty noisy. I would go back though. ##### David C.

Eric and Bravo (Hosts) are awesome. The only bad thing about this property is the parking. Its not the hosts fault, but the neighbor. I have never met anyone so upset about a parking spot. Someone needs a hobby. Definitely will be going back to stay again. ##### Chris R.

Very loud. I-5 is REAL!!!. Bring ear plugs. I stayed here years ago. Did not remember it being this noisy. Bravo always made our day, we love dogs! Window cover on kitchen window would be nice as there is no bedroom door to close. The light from outside shine’s in your eyes while sleeping. Over all, close to town, beach etc. Great wedding and weather! Safe Property. ##### Tammy S. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Diane Y. 2 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### Home Away From Home We stayed here for 2 weeks. The Casita was sunny - never needed lights during the day due to so many windows, yet still felt private. Well-appointed so easy to find needed utensils for cooking, towels, laundry, etc. Host was communicative and hospitable, checking on us almost every day with recommendations of places to go, to eat, and things to do. Parking was easy. The 4-year old boxer was very friendly - we're dog lovers, but if you are not this might not be for you. The hard scape is beautiful and about a 15 minute walk to Moonlight Beach. There were a few minor issues, some of which were taken care of, some not. We would have liked (but not a deal killer) a full length mirror, a toaster oven, and a broom. There were plenty of other cleaning supplies. Overall, we have no problem recommending this place. ##### Diane Y. Stayed 15 nights in Jan 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Steve A. 14 Mar 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication #### Grumpy and unpleasant host The host was so grumpy, insulting, and unpleasant that I left after the first week of my intended month-long stay. Avoiding the host was not an alternative because he lives on the property and there were ongoing problems with his large, undisciplined dog who has free run of the property. The dog jumped up on me repeatedly when I was outside and frequently ran away when I opened the gate to take my car out. The host got angry with me when the dog got out and blamed me for the dog's misbehavior. He was unwilling to make reasonable accommodations, such as restraining the dog or putting him in the house during the few times of the day when I needed to use my car. Not being able to come and go without getting into a shouting match with host was not my idea of a relaxing stay at the beach. ##### Steve A.
