OPEN 6/21-25! Ocean View, Pool/Spa,Pets OK,ByBeach
Cynthia’s place was perfect, she communicated promptly. Great location and clean bathrooms and kitchen. Loved the washer and dryer, clean and very accessible in the garage. Definitely recommend this place!

1 Bedroom Condo at Wave Crest Resort
Nicholas’s apartment was the perfect find for my Southwrn California getaway. The apartment was spacious, clean and very comfortable, and the view of the ocean from the pool was just what I had hoped for! A perfect spot to relax during the day and watch the sunset in the evening. Great restaurants and shops in walking distance, free parking, gracious staff - all around perfect!

Beach Apartment near Oceanside Pier
Place was wonderful. Check in was ok. Directions was confusing around the place and map was not to helpful at all. Steven was great w/ communication.

Gorgeous Ocean Views with A/C!
Our recent stay at Michelle’s Airbnb in Leucadia, California, was nothing short of exceptional! From the moment we arrived, it was clear that Michelle has thought of every detail to make her guests feel at home. The property is absolutely beautiful, spotlessly clean, and impeccably maintained, creating an inviting and comfortable atmosphere that rivaled the coziness of our own home. The kitchen was a standout feature, fully stocked with everything needed to whip up almost any meal. From cookware to an impressive array of spices, we had all the tools to enjoy home-cooked dinners, which made our stay even more special. It’s rare to find such a well-equipped kitchen in a vacation rental! The location is perfect for soaking in the local culture. Right on the beach, we loved taking daily walks to explore the vibrant Leucadia community. The highlight, though, was watching the sunset every evening from the living room or deck—pure magic! The views were breathtaking and made every night feel

Breathtaking Views-Steps to Sand, Beach Resort
Our stay at Just Beachy totally exceeded our expectations. It was perfection! Lorraine is an incredible host thanks to her responsiveness, kindness, and hospitality. The condo was so well decorated; you could tell Lorraine paid attention to every little detail, down to the paint colour…very serene. The complex itself is truly amazing, we enjoyed many of the amenities on both sides. And then there is the view…WOW! Falling asleep to the sound of the ocean waves was so relaxing (and the bed is SUPER comfy). I highly recommend this condo and Lorraine! We can’t wait to come back! ❤️

The Glass House - A Nature Retreat
This is a beautiful home in a fantastic secluded area. Highly recommended!

"Inn Bloom" on Fire Mountain
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely Perfect Oceanside Getaway! Staying at Leanne and Jim’s was truly an unforgettable experience. From the moment we arrived, they made us feel completely at home with their warm hospitality and thoughtful touches. They go above and beyond to ensure every detail is taken care of — you can genuinely feel how much they care about their guests. The guest home itself is absolutely majestic. Nestled right by the ocean (2mi), it’s a peaceful, serene retreat with beautiful greenery and a calming atmosphere that melts all your stress away. Every corner of the space is beautifully maintained and thoughtfully designed for comfort and relaxation. If you’re looking for a quiet, luxurious, and welcoming escape by the sea, look no further. Leanne and Jim’s place is a hidden gem, and we can’t recommend it highly enough. We’re already looking forward to our next visit!

Encinitas Cottage/Lanai-Close2Beach
Vivían & John! Thank you for your fabulous warm, friendly& enjoyable time with you two. Is great to meet such 💕 lovely people and feel so welcome. It’s like”coming back” to be with “good old friend” when I just met you. I am glad to have new friends forever😍👍! Sincerely, Griselda Mendoza-Cadman

The Beach Bungalow (1 bdrm - 1 block to beach)
Place was perfect for what we needed. Within walking distance to the beach and easily can walk right into town. Clean and comfortable would definitely stay again! Host was also very responsive. Thanks again 😊

West of Rancho Peñasquitos,easy access to freeway
What a lovely and relaxing home! It had everything that the listing described but with warmth that is hard to vocalize. We felt right at home as there were tons of thoughtful touches (like a throw blanket for the sofa) and plants. It felt like our vacation home. We may well stay here again the next time we visit relatives in this area. Note, this is a suburban neighborhood that is also conveniently located for visiting tourist sites. Thank you!

Mountain House With Hottub and View
It was a cute, quaint little getaway spot. Loved feeding the goats, chickens and alpacas. Our little maltipoo loved to just walk around the place and run up and down the little pathway. Will definitely come back.

#4, Ocean View- One Bedroom Condo at the Beach
We had a fantastic stay in unit 4! You absolutely cannot beat the location and having parking included is incredibly convenient. The unit itself looked just like the pictures and it was very clean. We enjoyed having a full kitchen as we visited the farmers market on State Street (open on Wednesday afternoons) and purchased snacks and items to make breakfast each morning. We're already planning our next trip back and will book this location!!

Temecula Creek Cottages #3
beautiful cottage. very cozy. enjoyed my stay

Resort-Style Beach House on Pacific Coast Highway 101
After a slight miscommunication at check in which Tamar quickly took care of, the stay was great! The location is perfect, though pulling out of the driveway can be a bit challenging with traffic at times. The house is decorated beautifully. One minute walk to the beach across the street. Loved it and would definitely stay here again.

Clear your mind in the country /minutes 2 the city
Very nice place for rest and relaxation. Renee was very responsive to our messages. I recommend this place if you want to rest. The washer and dryer is a plus!

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

Private Apartment - Secluded 2 Acre Estate/Orchard
Roger and Kari's place was a home away from home for our family with three small children. The place was well accommodating to littles with access to child furniture (pack and play, high chair, etc) and was child proofed as well. The quiet inside and outside was much appreciated as a place to get away from all the San Diego/CA exploring! Roger and Kari were very responsive and understanding to the unpredictable life with our kiddos. Thanks for a great week!

Grander Tradition>Retreat>Wineries>Weddings>Resort
Spent the weekend here with my girlfriends for my birthday and we had the best time! The house is soooo homey and had everything we needed. We were welcomed with bagels & snacks and a “happy birthday” sign. Pool and hot tub were great. Perfect relaxing outdoor area. So peaceful. Such a lovely home! Would definitely stay here again.

Relaxing Private Condo in La Costa, Carlsbad
I loved the location, we could walk to coffee in the morning. A few great food options are close. The kitchen was fully equipped for anyone wanting to cook, we didn't because the food choices were too good in the area.

Beautiful Condo in the La Costa Resort
Condo was easy to find, instructions were clear and simple to get it. Condo itself was clean and felt right at home. It's in a great location walking distance to Omni La Costa resort which has great food and drinks and a great golf course. Would definitely book again the next time I'm in San Diego.

✻Beautiful & Spacious Oside Oasis Family Retreat✻
Brett was an amazing host and his home was absolutely beautiful!! So cozy and welcoming feeling. I can say with confidence this was an amazing stay and I recommend 10/10!! Thank you Brett!!

Wine Country Heaven Surrounded by Vineyards!!
Our family had an AMAZING time here! We truly could not have found a better spot. The backyard is incredible, full of so much charm and had beautiful views! The pool is wonderful and so refreshing (we opted to heat it and glad we did as it was ideal for swimming in the morning and evenings as well). There is also a covered cabana area with chairs and a fireplace - this was a great place to duck out of the heat for a bit, to chat and play cards and relax. They even have a fun game room where my kids played pool (you can also play ping pong). The bar/grill area is pretty big with additional seating and also has a tv (which my husband loved so he could grill and watch golf ;) This place had it all! We truly had a fantastic time here and Justin was amazing as well - he was super responsive and answered all of our questions very quickly. Great host, great place - it was perfect! We had an awesome time and would love to come back again soon!
