Spacious Beach Residence w Backyard Pond & Hot Tub
Beautiful home in an excellent location. The house was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a great stay. The backyard was especially beautiful and lush, perfect for relaxing and enjoying the outdoors. We had trouble figuring out the TV, and Alexander made a special trip to fix it immediately, which we really appreciated. He was incredibly attentive, always responded within 30 minutes, and made sure we felt welcome throughout our stay. Highly recommend this!

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!!

King Bed w/Lush Backyard Space and Fire Pit
This was my first time searching and booking a place to stay using Airbnb and I found a winner! The house was bright, clean, spacious and comfortable. I loved the open kitchen/living room, having two full bathrooms, and two bedrooms on either side of the living room. The outdoor patio and seating areas were lovely. I felt comfortable and cared for, and was appreciative of Shawn’s communication and consideration.

Pet and Family Friendly Cottage
We had a wonderful stay and made so many sweet memories here with our family! We have three little kids, and this home was perfect for us—comfortable, welcoming, and had everything we needed. Pack-n-play and high chair provided was a huge plus!! The location was great and made it easy to explore the area. Courtney was a kind and thoughtful host—we really appreciated the welcome card and treats. We’d highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a cozy, family-friendly home away from home!

Cardiff Beach Cottage Ocean View
It was absolutely charming. We enjoyed our short stay, only regret was not having more time to enjoy it more. Beds and bedding was comfortable. Kitchen is fully stocked. Plenty of thick towels and beach towels. My grandsons loved sleeping in the loft. We were 20 minutes away from Sea World minutes from great parks for the boys. The owner was wonderful. Thank you so much.... We will book again. Chris and Lorena & four grandsons

Ocean View Poolside Retreat
I absolutely loved this place. There is so much to do within the home. The backyard is an amazing space with a pool/jacuzzi/ water slide, grill with fire pit, and yard games to include mini golf and ax throwing. The indoor space is equally amazing with a huge kitchen with everything you need , 2 lounging areas with TV’s, an Atari arcade game where you can relive your 80’s childhood and play pac- man and frogger. The bedrooms and bathroom were clean. The views from the home are beautiful, you can even see the ocean. My daughters live in San Diego and we live in Orange County so this was the perfect in between. It is close enough to the beach but far enough away that you don’t have to contend with beach traffic. It is also close to stores and restaurants but the house was so entertaining, we just stayed there all weekend, it was just perfect.

Montgomery "South" - Ocean views-walk everywhere!
Everything here was amazing, hosts were very responsive and helpful. The area is walkable with much to enjoy and some great recommendations from the hosts

*NEW* | Fire Pit | 3-Blocks to Beach | King Bed
We had an exceptional surf weekend at Nicole‘s place in Cardiff. Being able to walk to the beach was heavenly, and using the outside shower after surf sessions made it simple and easy to transition into relaxing chill time at the house and around the fire pit. The beach gear was perfect for those that wanted to relax on the shore, and it was in excellent condition, basically brand new! Nicole was very helpful and responsive, and it was very thoughtful of her to offer us early check-in when she noticed we were driving down from LA. We’ll be back!

Oceanside Outdoor Dream with pool , spa, and BBQ
My 2 colleagues and myself stayed here for a total of 8 nights as we were in town for a conference. It was brilliant and had everything we needed. I would highly recommend Oceanside and this property .

Centrally located n UCSD/ utc-laJolla
Wonderful place for a family visiting. Definitely check it out if you are visiting UCSD student.

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!

New & Lovely Guest House with Pool/Spa & Views!
We needed a place for 3 adults Sydnie’s place was so great from the first time I messaged Sydnie she helped me with local recommendation’s for restaurants/groceries/stores she sent me all the info I messed to make our stay wonderful. The house was everything that was shown. I would recommend anyone to stay here and will definitely will be back.

Luxurious La Costa Condo!
I've had multiple stays at Rick and Robyn's place, there's a reason I continue to book with them. Love the condo, sleek and modern, yet incredibly comfortable. Highly recommend

The Outside Inn at The Tipsy Goat Ranch
This is our third time staying here and it gets better and better every time! Literally spent the whole trip on the property with so many activities which the kids loved. Last time we used it as a place to stay when we went to Legoland and it was tough getting the kids to leave! My daughter's favorite host was Kelsey and my son's favorite is Riley. My buddy is Calvin the Alpaca. A perfect getaway and Heather and her family are super welcoming and attentive to any needs. Can't wait for the next visit!

Secluded Resort View Home. Salt Water Pool & Spa.
craig & julie’s place was absolutely stunning!! me & my now husband stayed there for our wedding weekend, it was the most beautiful getaway! upon arrival the house was spotless & any questions we had, craig & julie answered promptly! we also left our wedding cake and they helped to coordinate shipping it back home to us. would definitely stay here again!

Lovely space in Encinitas, California. Easy to get around. Parking was simple, amenities in the house were fantastic. Absolutely no complaints. Easy to walk around and get around. I would definitely come back.

Cozy Beach cottage in Encinitas Great Location!.
My friends and I felt this Airbnb was a great spot for us to call home for the time being. The house was cozy and her neighbors were friendly. I will not be surprised if we choose this location for next year's holiday vacation!

Gorgeous Farmhouse Style Guest House with Private
We absolutely loved our stay here in Solana Beach - we felt completely at home and wish we could have stayed a few more weeks to just relax and enjoy the amazing weather. The unit had everything we needed. It's a beautiful and peaceful space. The neighborhood is also every nice, and walkable, though you'd probably want to drive to Solana Beach and Del Ray. We would definitely stay here again!

Solana Beach Surfer Studio (long-term rental)
I honestly hesitated to give a good review of this place… only bc I don’t want more people to find out about it! ;-) Perfect location, perfect accommodations, everything you could need (including a parking space which is priceless in this beach community!). Super-easy in and out, incredibly friendly hosts and just the ideal spot to chill at the beach. Had to do some work while I was there and the internet was great too! Wish I could think of something that would turn away potential bookers so I could get another chance to stay here, but I got nothin’ 😊

Luxury Oceanside Hideout! Kid/dog friendly!
This airbnb was conveniently located and was as advertised. Place was clean and the check-in process was seamless. Would definitely check out other Wander locations in the future.
