Overall the house is lovely. Felt like a dream. We saw dolphins every morning and beautiful sunsets in the evening. Everything a short walk or short drive away. Hosts communicated well, resolved issues quickly, and provided great amenities.
The property is set in an ideal location in Encenitas. The view of the ocean especially at sunset is beautiful! There is everything you need and it all works perfectly. The beds are super confortable. Great A/C and central heating. Close to the beach, coffee shop, small local grocery and many more. We had a great stay, thak you!
Great property location, walking distance to everything. View of the ocean is perfect. The master bathroom shower door is broken. There are coffee machines but no coffee pods or coffee grounds. It was a nice property and enjoyed our time there.
Overall this is a good place to take your family. The location is amazing and the views are incredible. BEWARE, the primary suite bathroom is just not acceptable. Don't plan on taking a shower in the shower, it is tiny and I have been in larger showers in RV's. However, the area is vibrant and you can walk to many restaurants, bars, coffee shops, shopping etc. Overall the place just needs a little updating.
Loved our stay at this little home on Neptune. Photos definitely are not indicative of the state of the home though - the place is more run down than it seems and the photos are definitely taken on wide angle, especially on the room with the bunk bed. The master shower is horrendous, we didn't even use it once, and the fixtures are old/unstable. I wouldn't recommend this place for young kids (was fine for crawling baby but lots of rusty metal in bed frame, chair bolts, etc). On the POSITIVE side, the views make up for anything the home lacks. The neighborhood is awesome for lots of walks and nearby coffee/food. The management team was great to communicate with (over text) and very helpful when we needed some adjustments to our reservation.
Spectacular view of the ocean from this fantastic beach house. We had a few issues but they were dealt with promptly and were resolved. We highly recommend staying at this house!
San Diego beach-front property. The view and cool breeze is amazing. We stayed for 8 nights. It’s a short walk to the neighborhood surfers beach or you can drive to Moonlight in less than 5 minutes, where there are smaller waves, a snack bar, playground and showers. We walked to dinner and coffee shops. The house came with all of the necessary amenities. I like that there were 3 full bathrooms.
The property is in a great location right on the coastal bluffs with stunning views north and south. Wonderful sound of ocean waves crashing! The house was clean and well equipped with comfortable beds and pillows. A tad rundown due to proximity to the ocean. And only odd thing is that the property is a duplex and shares a wall with an adjoining five or six bedroom rental, which has access to the larger patio shown in the photos for this unit.
Great house to spread out and relax. 7 adults. Visiting family and daughter that lives local v
Great views and very walkable to restaurant’s and bars. Recommend renting the electric bikes for some fun. Kitchen had all utensils but no coffee onsite but plenty of coffee shops 2 min walk away.
There was some confusion on parking spots. Would like to stay again next year.
