Welcome to Funky Leucadia where you are greeted with old north county vibes and new energy. the Leucadia Place is a bit of both as well. A quaint 2bed/2bath updated 1927 home perched on the hillside facing the pacific. No a/c but coastal breezes keep things fresh and cool with amazing sunsets!

the Leucadia Place is best for a couple with a child (or two) or a couple with a friend. Please look at the full description to see if the place suits you.
A rare and unique quality of this vacation rental is that IT IS dog/cat FRIENDLY and has no size restrictions. BUT please pay the pet fee and let me know so I can set up for your furry friend(s). If your fur-ball tears up things, it happens, but please be upfront and accommodate repairs/replacement of damages.
If it appears unavailable for part of your trip, though the calendar may appear blocked, the place could still be available, please ask. I travel often and also pace guests to ensure the best experience for all my arrivals but will open days up if available.
the Leucadia Place is west of interstate 5 and east of coast highway, on the hill facing the ocean. It is a perfect spot for a seasonal track rental or just weekend stay! Summer season is upon us so check the calendar and book early.
The home is just a short 8 miles north (10-15 min) from the Del Mar Race track so if you're looking to rent for the 2026 track season, ask ASAP. The dates may be pre-blocked for this opportunity so please reach out.

About the host
Hosted by Jason
There is a reason San Diego has been home for over 4 decades and the Leucadia place exemplifies a unique slice of old north county. As you join for your stay, you will discover why. Having known this property for over 26 years it is exciting to share its charms and quirks as there are few spaces like this that still exist. It’s a home that you'll enjoy your time at and come back again and again.

Why they chose this property
If you're looking for a private space with more than a hotel can offer at a better price, this is it. Up a private driveway and behind a gate you'll find my spot. As with all old homes, it is a work in progress but has so much to offer as is.
Though about 1/4 mile from the ocean, when the wind is blowing from the west, you can hear the waves. Sunsets are spectacular and you can enjoy them on your own private decks. Coffee on the porch and cocktails on the back deck.
Leucadia itself is an up and coming area and from the Leucadia Place you can easily walk to coast highway and visit all that is going on.
Just south of you is Encinitas, Cardiff, Solana Beach and Del Mar (home of the world famous Del Mar race track) and Torrey Pines and La Jolla home of the world famous Torrey Pines Golf Course.
To the north is La Costa, Carlsbad, Oceanside and beyond. There are amazing spas and resorts in the area and as you stay here, visit the resorts for your spa and tee times and not deal with the crowds when you return to this private space.
What makes this property unique
North County San Diego beats to a different drum than San Diego proper and Leucadia even more so. Its a great balance of new and old San Diego. Great bars, restaurants, surf spots and chill vibes. Its just a nice tempo.
