Short trip to Encinitas
The house was really clean and actually larger than the pics show. We were there for a football tourney for my son and it fit this family of 4 perfectly. Very close to downtown Encinitas and the local beaches / trails. The host was excellent with check in and communication. Would definitely stay again..

Amazing host
We loved it so much, we rented it for our next stay in Encinitas. EVERYTHING needed for a pleasant stay is there. Great view. It was like home away from home. Also although it was very cold for the season, having the luxury of heat in the apt was such a plus. Nice kitchen, comfortable rooms. Great bathrooms , showers with hot water anytime and powerful pressure. All new. Finally an amazing host.

Golf Trip to San Diego
Our stay in Encinitas was good, we were in a location where we could get to restaurants and food very quickly, access to freeways was close and all the courses we played were within 30 minutes which made it nice. Place was clean and had a nice view overlooking Encinitas. My only complaint would be the electrical outlets in the bedrooms are old and normal plugs for phone chargers etc won't stay plugged in and fall out. I would recommend this place to anyone wanting to stay in North County. Oh and the best salsa in the world is a few blocks away at El Napalito market!

Very accurately described, this is a comfortable three bedroom apartment with a nice kitchen, large common living space with an excellent picture window looking out toward the ocean and a great ocean view, and a large covered deck with the same expansive views. Rooms are all nice sized and it was very livable. All very clean. Excellent host.

Well-appointed and great location!
I stayed at this property with my husband and two boys (ages 13 and 16) during a trip to visit a family member who lives in Carmel. The location was PERFECT being right off of I5 and only a couple of exits away from our cousin. It was also very easy to jump I5 and head up to Oceanside for the afternoon (be sure to check out the Top Gun House!), south to La Jolla (great seal and sea lion watching), to downtown San Diego or south to Coronado. The kitchen was fully equipped and we enjoyed cooking dinner for our family one night when we were there. Joe was very friendly and responsive. Highly recommend this property to anyone visiting the San Diego area!

Great common Areas!
I rented this for a small wedding we had in the area. 6-7 of us were staying in the unit and had plenty of space to hang out in the living room and on the deck. The common areas are all nicely updated with plenty of amenities. The beds weren’t great, but I happily gave up quality for quantity on the beds given the price and how many people we had to put up. Would definitely recommend this place to others, it was conveniently located and check in and communication with the host was super easy!

great top floor unit with a lovely view and quick access to everything
this place was great and met all our needs. the owner communicated clearly at the onset of the rental. we were nervous about quiet hours, traveling with children, but it turned out not to be an issue. in fact, the neighbors were quite nice and told us we didn't bother them at all. we needed to make the beds when we arrived, as they had comforters but no sheets. it was a bit of a challenge figuring out which sheet sets went with which beds, but we got it all sorted. that's not much of a critique, though, which i suppose goes to show how good the place was altogether. it was clean and spacious, the kitchen had all the necessary wares, and the huge outdoor deck provided a wonderful place for dining and relaxation too! we would definitely rent this spot again. thank you!!

Hi Gabrielle - thank you for the nice review! I had no idea that the beds were not made when you arrived! I apologize for this inconvenience - they should have been made. I will issue a partial refund of your cleaning fee since your group ended up having to do this. Thank you for choosing my place and I'm glad you enjoyed the deck and your stay overall!

Great place in Encinitas
It was our first time in Encinitas and we hosted some friends of my son for a local soccer camp. The place is the upper floor of a triplex located about a 20 minute walk from the beach. It's a comfortable place with a large deck and picture window. There's parking for 2 cars, two bathrooms, comfortable beds and big kitchen. The place has been updated recently and is very nice inside. There's a house fan in the attic that cools the place and ocean breezes. There's also a school nearby with a soccer field which was great for the kids. Joe, the owner, is very receptive and the place has been in the family for decades and is cared for. There's even boogie boards in the back we could use. Great for a family or big group.

Nice for an extended family
Joe’s place was a good fit for our extended family (grandma, a couple and a couple with a kid) while we celebrated a birthday at Legoland and had a few days at the beach. We had everything we needed in the kitchen and otherwise. The bathrooms are really cute and the patio was lovely to sit and play cards and enjoy the sunset. There were no surprises and Joe was very communicative and made sure we had the codes and info needed before arrival. We loved Encinitas and will be back!

Incredible time in Encinitas
Couldn't have asked for a better place to stay while our family was visiting Encinitas. The hosts were very gracious and a pleasure to chat with. Restaurants, beaches, parks, everything we needed were either a walk or short drive away. Lots of comfortable beds for larger families, great common areas for hanging out and an excellent covered balcony for outdoor dining. We will definitely choose to stay here again.

My whole family loved this house! We were visiting family in the northern San Diego area, and the house was perfectly located; the property was great (we loved the deck and the living room, with its massive window); and Encinitas (which I'd never visited) was beautiful. Plus, Joe, the property owner, couldn't have been nicer. Thanks Joe!

Great time in Encinitas
We happened to move in on a very warm day, coupled with the house windows being shut it took over a day for it to cool down. Bringing everything upstairs was a chore but the view from the very large window was great as was the deck. Bedrooms and bathrooms were clean. Nice kitchen and dining area and great family room. Never did get the Hulu TV to work properly, finally gave up on it. Grandson loved playing in spacious family room.

Peaceful Beach House
This is a beautiful house in a quiet neighborhood. The house is well-appointed; the kitchen has plenty of appliances, dishes and cooking utensils, towels and pillows for everyone and even a hair dryer! The patio has a rolling roof to watch the sunset. The house is a 6 minute drive from downtown Encinitas, less than 10 minutes from Moonlight, Swami’s and Cardiff(without having to get in the freeway).The owner left a great list of his favorite spots and things to do. We had a great time.!

Great family property
We rented this property for a month because my daughter and son-in-law (who live close by) were having their first baby and we didn’t want to invade their space. It was perfect. Well-stocked kitchen, comfortable gathering places and the patio was a great place to have friends and family over. The owner communicated well when roadwork and a brief internet outage were going to occur. We would definitely stay there again for a weekend or another long term stay.

Clean, large space!
I was surprised with how big this space was. My family and I were able to really sprawl out and relax. Joe had a great eye for design; the beds were super comfy; plenty of dishes and silverware; high speed internet was a plus for working from home. The place was walking distance to an awesome Mexican restaurant “El Nopalito,”and a cute coffee shop, “Woodsy Cafe.” Highly recommend.
