Spacious, serene and bright

This beautifully designed unit had lovely upscale furnishings and decor, with a well-supplied kitchen and 2 great bedrooms. The outdoor patio and yard were perfect for reading, relaxing or enjoying the sun. I loved that the location was just minutes to beaches (walkable!) and the great dining and shops in energetic beach-vibe downtown Encinitas. A memorable stay, with helpful and accessible hosts!

Encinitas Trip

We loved our stay here... it was quick from the airport, seconds to the beach, 10 minutes from legoland, walk to delicious restaurants, we had a hard time leaving and can't wait to go back! The condo is better than the pictures, it's spacious, decor is so fun and the yard space is great! Hosts were super friendly and easy to talk to and respond in seconds!

Great location, responsive hosts

Really enjoyed our stay in the spacious Beach unit. Location was perfect for walking to the D street access point, and all the beach gear provided was great. Close to multiple dining options. Kid-friendly tv options were appreciated.

Super colorful and cute apartment

The decoration and the amenities were perfect. The unit had everything we needed. It is decorated with playful colors, comfortable beds and furniture. The unit has a wonderful outdoor space that we used the whole time and is in a great location to walk to everything. Will stay there again.

Excellent location

The location of this home was perfect for our long weekend. Really enjoyed having the backyard and porch to ourselves. The main bedroom was spacious, and the bed was comfortable.Locks getting into the place, took several tries to figure out. Found the unit very clean except the kitchen/living area floors which could’ve used a fresh cleaning/moppinb prior to our arrival.

Wonderful place in Encinitas.

This place was perfect for our stay in Encinitas. The apartment was spotless. The hosts thought of everything and we had everything we needed for a fun and comfortable stay by the beach. Oh, and the bed was the most comfortable VRBO bed we've slept in -- nice hotel quality. I highly recommend this place and would return.

Perfect!

This place was perfect! Just a few blocks to everything, so we walked a lot. It is so beautifully decorated and stocked with everything we needed. Plus there were small notes everywhere to help with TV, fans etc. Great idea! Commutation was over the top. We will be back again. Thank you Beach Haus!

Great unit and location

This unit is SUPER cute and so joyfully decorated. Love the bright colors all throughout. It was a pleasure to stay in. The place was impeccably clean and furnished with everything you could need. Beds and furniture were all comfortable and the outdoor swing was great! Nicely sheltered from the breeze so you could sit out and read at any time of day. We will definitely be back!

Beach Bungalow Amazingness

Our stay was just absolutely perfect. Our kids loved the bunk bed set up and us adults loved the patio area. Our kids loved that they could ride their bikes to the beach. The kitchen was equipped with everything needed. The space was clean & decorated so cute, we didn't want to leave! We will be making this an annual trip.

Fabulous

Super cute and clean. It was perfect for our stay. I loved having the covered porch and small landscaped area. It felt private and was extremely quiet. A short walk to see the ocean and to shops and restaurants. Having a covered parking spot was a bonus.

Clean, beautifully decorated, well stocked.

Location was farther to the the beach then we expected but still walking distance, the amenities and beach chairs,mats, etc made up for that. The suggestions made by the host made our stay easy as we knew where to eat and get groceries . thank you

Lovely family getaway

My husband and I stayed at this property with our 1 year old daughter, and it was a great fit for our family! The hosts were very sweet and we appreciated their welcome gift for the baby. The front yard area was a perfect spot for our daughter to play, and the home was within easy walking distance to Moonlight Beach and many restaurants and shops. The only thing I’d change would be to add blackout curtains in the back bedroom, but we were able to make do with extra blankets over the windows. We would definitely recommend this property!

Very relaxing

We took a quick family road trip to Encinitas. Amazing location. Walking distance to everything! There’s no full kitchen which we knew and that was fine. Probably not for a longer trip, but this one was just a few days. Screens on the French doors would help with airflow. The yard is not fenced which, for a dog friendly property I assumed. Shame on me. But basically the experience was perfect. I will definitely rent from Beach Haus again. Their communication and attention to detail was top tier. .

8 minute walk to restaurants

This is a great VRBO; clean and well stocked, cheerfully light, airy and welcoming. Only complaint, which may or may not change and owners may have no control over, is that you can hear upstairs neighbors as they move around their unit, play music etc. Access to shops and dining is excellent. Family did not access beach from the house so can't say about that. Overall very pleased with that one comment about noise.
