Dolphin Views ~ The Edge of the USA, 2-Bed, 1-Bath
Brooke was incredibly helpful, responsive, and kind. AirBnB sent us the incorrect info to check in, but Brooke text us back right away with the correct gate & door codes. Everything was so clean and tidy (which is definitely saying something being so close to the beach!). The view absolutely can't be beat, and the home is so cozy and beautiful. We had the best time and certainly hope to be lucky enough to return some day! Thank you, Brooke!!

Ocean Front Sunset Cliffs Beach House
This place is amazing!! The best views, the best walking, and the spaces in the house are perfect for a group. We made dinner in and watched the sunset every night. We also brought our 6 month old son and it was a great location to be “nap trapped.”

Location! Walk to beach + private yard + upscale
We had a wonderful stay at Stephanie’s home. The proximity to the beach was amazing and Moonlight was a 10 minute walk. We appreciated all of the beach towels, chairs, toys and wagon. Close to good restaurants and overall a peaceful and friendly neighborhood.

B5118 House of the Waves
Casa de Las Olas is an absolute gem. It has nine skylights offering abundant light, views of the ocean so close you can see seals playing in the waves, and a sanctuary of home in an otherwise bustling coastal town. The location is phenomenal, along the coastal walk area of San Diego-La Jolla Underwater Park and Ecological Reserve, with equal distance to wildlife sightings, dining, art galleries, and shops. Additional highlights include dual shower heads, a fireplace to warm the cooler coastal evenings and mornings, elevated ceilings, and all the unique character of a renovated cottage. It is the perfect size and location for solo travelers such as myself.

Beachfront Home, Private SandyYard Views Walkable
We rented this house to spend time with our grown children and grandkids. It was amazing! Better than any words can describe. We had plenty of room and the kids (3 under 3) loved the grass! Beds were super comfy and loved going to sleep every night to the sound of the waves crashing. This house had everything we needed and more. We just brought our clothes and food. We all decided this needs to be a new tradition for our family and will return soon. 10 out 10

SHORE BREAK HOUSE Where Turf Meets Surf! NFLTicket
Dan's Shore Break house is nice and comfortable. We stayed with our small dogs & the yard is perfect for them, as well as us to relax. We did communicate with Dan and his response time was quick. I would definitely recommend Dan's place to anyone visiting the area.

Poolside Vibes Oside
We had a wonderful five night staying at Katie' s home. There are so many little touches that you can see the love and care she has taken for you to have a lovely stay. There was nothing we needed that we didn't find....to the point that when we brought so groceries in we purchased spices as we would normally for an air bnb...there was no need a huge selection. We enjoyed the pool and all the amenities. Our family consisted of my husband and myself, so we took one room. Our daughter, son in law and four year old grandson. As well as our other adult daughter. There was more than enough room for all. If you are considering but hesitant on price ...you won't be sorry if you do it. Her entire vibe and little touches make the experience as well. Right down to a turntable and a few great albums. Thanks for a lovely time. PS. take a moment to read her home manual, you will never be sorry, as you are staying in her home.

Stunning Beach House! 2 Tubs & Outdoor Shower New!
We loved how close to the beach and walking distance to restaurants, and coffee shops. We also enjoyed bringing our dog who loved the outdoor patio we would definitely stay again. Cute place and very clean.

Fantastic stay! Cynthia was very responsive and the location was excellent. We’d gladly stay again!!

Private 3 bedroom block to Bay New Pool Spa, Bikes
Beautiful home with plenty of space. Vanessa was very responsive and helpful with check in. I had made a request to check in early due to travelling with an infant and when I arrived she had a packnplay and a high chair set up for me. The house had several toys/books for kids along with beach chairs and shades for us to use. The pool and spa was beautiful and kept very clean. There is also a walking path at the end of the street that goes along the beach and leads to pacific beach within 15-20 minutes. Its hard to find a house this spacious and close to pacific beach for this price, would highly recommend to anyone. The host was incredibly friendly and responsive to messages which is always nice when travelling from far away.

Blue Fin Townhouse
The unit was well equipped having everything we needed. Owner was helpful and proactive. We didn't have any issues. The community deck over the ocean was fantastic. The beach here is wide enough to never have to worry about low tide or high tide. The unit provides a private stairway to the beach, while it is also a distance to get to for the public, resulting in an amazing beach with no crowds. We would definitely stay here again.

NEW Discount Rate 3BD Ocean View
Host made every part of our stay easy. From detailed instructions and directions on how to check in (easy!!), to info about the complex and what’s available (so much, and very close!), to answering the few questions we had, Alyssa made it easy! Place was clean with everything we needed easy to find (beach towels, LOADED kitchen, extra propane tank, etc). Ocean view from two of the bedrooms was breathtaking. Would definitely stay here again. Fair price for all you get.

Casa Del Oceano, Solana Beach
We stayed at Pete's place because it has a gorgeous pool (the pool slide was a huge hit), is close to Del Mar racetrack, and is close to the beach/ocean (you can see the ocean from the front yard). We took our two Bichons and felt safe and secure letting them out. We have family in San Diego and had a small family cook out on Sunday. The grill was awesome, and there are lots of fun things to do on the property, front and back yards. We didn't take advantage of the jacuzzi, but it was already heated up. Since the house doesn't have air conditioning, there were fans in the family room and bedroom. Large kitchen, so you can cook and bake if you don't want to eat out all the time. The house is single story, but outside there are lots of levels where you have to go up and down some single steps,so small children would need help and elderly or disabled folks may need help, too. Pete gave great directions about how to access the main entrance, and the self check-in security code.

Sunny Carlsbad Home I Walk to Beach w/ Heated Pool
Great place! Especially if traveling with kids. Very clean and has all the comforts of home. The yard is a bonus for letting little ones play. Mari was helpful and accommodating and easy to communicate with. My family was actually set to stay at another one of their properties but at the last minute, (and due to circumstances beyond anyone’s control), we were unable to stay at the original booking. But Mari was quick to reach out to me and was very helpful at getting us booked at another location. Definitely recommend and would stay again!

SurfSong Dream - Beachfront
What a great place to stay! The views were amazing and so nice to sleep to the surf. Plenty of room the spread out and great to enjoy the couch or table while swatching the surf. Kitchen was great and beds were comfortable. Beach was a 5 min walk down the beach and plenty of shops and restaurants around. Wyatt was great to communicate with. Definitely will be back!

Blue Lagoon - South Oceanside
My family had a wonderful stay at Jon’s house! The location is close to everything but also quiet and peaceful. We all enjoyed the beautiful pool and beds were very comfy, not to mention a beautiful kitchen to cook in. We didn’t want to leave!

Zen OceanView Home w/ Rooftop Dining!
Our group of 6 had an amazing time at this gorgeous historic home! The unique details and rooftop views were so impressive, and the location was perfect—close to great restaurants like The Waverly.

Ashley’s Airbnb was a perfect stay for our family. It was close enough to walk to the beach & to walk to restaurants.

Modern Luxury-by-the-Beach
The home is beautiful, and we really appreciated easy communication with the host. Wonderful welcome guide, and the hot tub was such a delight to use at the end of the day. We are grateful for our time at this home and look forward to returning to Encinitas 🌺
