Encinitas Vacation Rental townhome

Our family of 5 just returned from a fantastic week at this property. We found everything down to the details exactly as described and even better than we expected. The rental was beautiful, extremely clean, spacious and well appointed. We found the property and neighbors delightful. We enjoyed lazy morning walks and bike rides into town for coffee, breakfasts together at the condo, relaxing afternoons at the uncrowded beach, and fun evenings out exploring the area's incredible dining options. The owners are fantastic to work with on all aspects of the rental process. This propert is an absolute
delight and we would love to return again and again! We highly recommend this property!

Our family recently returned from a wonderful week at Phil and Carole's beach house! The house was gorgeous and had everything we needed or would want. All of the furniture, decorations, dishes, wine glasses, and linens were all top quality and better than we expected (some better than our home!). This property is a great value.

We’ve stayed in the area before, but never in this particular development. Everything was so easy to access – especially the beach, the pool, and tennis courts. It’s just a short drive to all of the major tourist destinations – the Zoo, Sea World, and Legoland. We especially loved the days we just relaxed at “home” sitting on the deck enjoying the sunshine while the children played outside. The neighborhood is so quiet we slept with the windows open.

Carole provided some great recommendations of fun things to do with the kids and great restaurants. They went out of their way to make our visit perfect.

We would recommend this vacation home to anyone with (or without) children. We had such a great time that we’ve already contact Carole about coming next year or sooner.

Thank you Phil and Carole!

"Paradise" is what my 3 children call this place, where we have stayed for a week almost every April since 2001. This lovely condo is located just a few steps and a staircase away from the Pacific Ocean, near Moonlight Beach in Encinitas. There are two pools, including one with a hot tub. The condo complex is nicely landscaped and attractive. The condo itself is very open, with skylights offering a view of the sky (usually sunny) and lots of natural light and fresh air. The back of the condo has large glass doors opening onto a deck with a table and lounge chairs, which face towards the ocean. You really feel like you are staying at a friends place rather than a rental, since the dishes, towels, appliances, furniture etc are all very good quality, way better than you would find at most rentals. There are even cozy heavyweight terrycloth robes for a chilly morning! If the pool and beach don't hold your interest, there is plenty to do in the area. Legoland is 10 minutes away, Seaworld, the SD Zoo, and Wild Animal Park are 30-40 min away, Disney is 1 1/2 hours away. There is also Scripps Aquarium in La Jolla and numerous other attractions in San Diego. They just put in a new wide screen flat TV, in case you like to watch TV while on vacation, and get most of the non-movie cable channels. WiFi makes checking your email and connecting to the internet very easy. I highly recommend this place to anyone, especially families with kids, looking for a clean, beautiful place to stay with central location in the San Diego area.
