What a GEM!! Clean, quiet, private and in a great location! Close to restaurants. Beautifully set up space with a Cal King bed, kitchen and living room area and even a small balcony with a BBQ. The beach is not within walking distance as far as we could tell but the Encinitas area and beaches are just a short drive. The Hideout owners were very nice and gave us very detailed instructions, prior to arrival, on how to access the unit. Definitely would stay here again when visiting the area!!

Liked: Location
The hideout was upstairs through a private entrance, a little hard to find in the dark though, so read the instructions carefully. Wonderful sea breeze- we opened all of the windows and balcony double doors all night, no AC needed. Fully stocked coffee pods for all of the days we were there (5), Very comfortable bed- though personally I like a somewhat flat pillow. Plenty of others to choose from. Very nice set up. We did struggle with the TV as the wifi seemed slow- but not a biggie as we had a tablet and laptop with us. Very close to the Downtown Leucadia Beach Town area. Prompt responses from our host.

We have lived in San Diego North County for 45 years. My husband is an avid surfer and bicyclist. I love to work out with my friends. We both love to golf and hang with our family and friends!

Why they chose this property

Our goal in life was to live close to the beach! Leucadia is truly a perfect place for everything we like to do. Leucadia is a place people want to come to relax at the beach, surf, swim, shop, eat at great restaurants, winery and breweries. Beautiful sunsets close by and the weather is usually so nice!! Golf courses, hiking, yoga, cycling, working, you name it! The hideout is a short drive to so many fun places.

What makes this property unique

The Leucadia Beach Hideout is a studio attached to a home, located in a nice neighborhood. Its a self contained upstairs studio apartment with balcony with its own private entrance. The hideout is always squeaky clean, self contained, private, safe. A perfect place for a couple or single person!
