Ideal for stay with kids

Beautifully decorated, equipped with all you need for travel with kids (e.g. pack and play, lots of toys, kids' utensils, etc.), ideal kitchen for cooking, great dining area for family meals, and ideally located relative to the Beach, Encinitas, La Jolla, and San Diego. We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again!

Just Perfect

Location and house are amazing. Really impressed with all of the amenities. We over packed since the house had nearly everything needed to take care of and entertain our toddler. Hope to come back soon.

Best girlfriend weekend

Me and my life long friends gathered over the long weekend to surprise one of the ladies birthday who lives in the area. This home was perfect for us. So many areas to gather amd spend time catching up. We loved the firepit in mornings over coffee. Then in the evenings a warm hottub, was a perfect way to end the day. We would like to make this an annual event. Love this place.

Great stay

The house is located on a quiet street with easy access parking. You can walk to the beach but it a good workout. The Encinitas park is very close with a nice 1 mile loop and popular skate board park plus more. The house is adorable with a great open concept. The front deck has a gas fire pit. The backyard has hot tub and area for games. The ping pong table is great fun. The house is very accommodating for families with young adults.

Fun times in Cardiff

This home was immaculate ! It truly looks like the pictures in the listing - open breezy great room with direct access to the beautifully landscaped outdoor area and contemporary decor. The beds were super comfy ! Easy walk to a local park with a fun play area for kids . Close to downtown, bike trails and the beach Make sure to check out the seaside market and if you are a meat eater -try the Cardiff crack- simply delicious! Lovely neighborhood! Wonderful family vacation

Beautiful House and Location!

We had a lovely stay at this beautiful home. Great location, quiet neighborhood, and the house was perfectly appointed. Our only complaints were that the hot tub was quite dirty when we arrived, and we could have used some extra towels during our stay. But other than that, it was perfect! Lots of stuff for our kids to do (ping pong, bocce, mini basketball hoop), beds were comfy, kitchen tools were fully stocked, and the outdoor space was beautiful. We will definitely be back!

What a perfect beachside getaway!

My family and I absolutely loved this house! And Cardiff by The Beach is such a cute little town. The house is a short 1 minute drive to beach, and also a quick walk to a wonderful little playground. When we weren’t at beach, we were playing Bocci ball or ping pong at the house, or relaxing in the Jacuzzi. And the house was lovely, with a fireplace my husband and I enjoyed at night after the kids went to sleep. Every restaurant we tried food was amazing, all very close by! We can’t wait to stay here again next year!

Great stay and beautiful property

Great house - lovely outdoor living areas. Only glitch was the hot water heater broke and they couldn’t fix it while I was there. Chilly showers for 3 days but the property management company did provide a partial reimbursement. They were great to deal with.
