The Space
Hi! Welcome to The Good Vibes House, situated in a highly desirable neighborhood of Escondido! Hidden in this quiet, family friendly neighborhood is a spectacular backyard resort that we have enjoyed throughout the years, hosting to friends and family.

The kids favorite feature of the backyard is the pool slide and putting green, while we personally enjoy taking care of the Avocado trees and fruit trees as they produce very fruitful harvest every year. If you happen to be a welcome guest during those seasons, you'll love the fresh avocados, valenica oranges, tangelos, pomelos, figs, and more.

The record player in the listening room does not work.

We hope you'll find your favorite spot within the backyard resort, make great memories and enjoy the experience as much as we do.

Great Stay!
Beautiful property inside and out. The backyard and the beautiful pool are the selling point but the indoors is lovely too. Very clean, tastefully decorated and comfortable with lots to do. Weather was chilly (low 60s) so even with paying for pool heat, you can only heat to a certain temp (85). Depending on your weather it might be worth seeing if you can pay to heat a few more degrees. Also a drawback that you have to turn off the pool heat to heat the hot tub, so the hot tub gets cold if you’re heating the pool. We’d definitely stay here again, just pointing out for transparency.

Fun Place to stay
WOW, was the best way to describe the backyard. The property had everything you could want to entertain the kids, and adults. The pool was amazing and there was a lot of space to just relax and enjoy the surroundings. The game room with the big screen TV was also a hit. Would love to stay here again.

Heaven in Escondido
Our family ADORED this home. It was a perfect place for our family, which is scattered all over CA, to gather. There was plenty of room, it was well-appointed, and THE POOL was the highlight. The house was super kid friendly with early morning games of corn hole or badminton, and evenings around the outdoor fireplace recapping our day. As an added bonus-we loved picking the fresh lemons and pomelos to squeeze into our drinks. The host was very responsive and helpful. We will be back!

Dream Vacation Home!
Stayed with multiple ages for a family wedding. Exceeded all of our expectations and I am extremely picky and travel often with VRBO. House is even better than pictured! Tasteful, modern decor, excellent linens and bedding. Spotlessly clean. Kitchen is well equipped with quality knives and appliances. The backyard is perfection.The owners are professional and attentive! We all joked that we wanted to buy the house and live there permanantly.
