Encinitas, California
The cottage is a separate unit, a backyard 'granny-flat' that's about 750sq. feet . You have two seperate bedrooms, a kitchenette/living area plus bathroom. Freshly remodeled, this 'beach close' charmer looks out upon a secluded garden and lawn and loads of flowers. Eclectic is the feeling. Attention to 'creature comforts' and simplicity was the intention when renovating[Italian and Mexican tile accents, hardwood floors...] . An adjoining [but completely private] second bedroom is generously sized and includes a double bed. The kitchenette and living area overlooks the lawn and garden area.. . NO SMOKING in house or on the grounds.
We respect your privacy, and ours. NO EXTRA FOLKS ON THE PROPERTY..NO EXCEPTIONS. (meet family and friends off the premises)
We see the situation as most attractive to couples, or couples with children, looking for a peaceful setting within a short walk to our little beach town and our great beaches-, Cardiff, Solana Beach, Encinitas and Leucadia, a sample of Southern California beach living.
We are located in one of north San Diego County's oldest neighborhoods, the Highlands of Encinitas. A 10 to 15 min. walk and you will find yourself in the quaint seaside town. Ethnic dining is big; great Italian, Peruvain, Thai, Indian, Japanese, etc.- Encinitas seems to be on the cutting edge of the 'conscious life-style' movement so health minded options abound. Whole Foods is close by. While the beach and ocean remain the main attractions, the beautiful gardens of the Self Realization Fellowship are a short walk into town, a resource for relaxation and rejuvenation. Our town is 'coming of age' you might say and it's all just a short walk away.
Return to the tranquility of your secluded and cozy garden cottage. If it feels like a fit, drop in and give us a try, maybe you'll become a regular.

Enjoyed our second stay with Carol and Tony. Everything we needed for a relaxed, but eventful escape. Thanks!
We felt welcome from the start, comfortable and the little cottage had everything we needed.
It’s perfect for two people. We spent a lot of time hanging out on the patio enjoying Carol and Tony’s wonderful backyard. Very comfortable stay, all within walking distance of the town and local beaches. Food in town was great, everything you’d expect in a SoCal beach community. Our hosts were pleasant and attentive.
Carol and Tony were really welcoming and their casita was exactly what we were looking for for our family 4 nights stay. Clean, functional, with a lot of charm. Close to the beach and a short drive to San Diego. Thanks again for everything !
Carol's property was perfect for us! It was a great location, within walking distance to the 101 in Encinitas, and Leucadia Blvd, where we had family. The backyard was quaint and had a water feature which made spending time there very enjoyable. Carol & Tony were very helpful and made our stay very enjoyable.
We had a really great time staying for a week at Tony and Carol’s. The casita was very comfortable, the backyard was peaceful and quiet, and in a great location walkable to the main strip of restaurants and stores and most importantly the beach! It’s also easily drivable to kids activities in and around San Diego (and Encinitas has some great playgrounds). Tony and Carol were easy to communicate with and we appreciated being able to utilize beach toys, boogie boards and beach chairs during our stay. We would absolutely return!
Listing is accurate; perfect holiday getaway. Weather was stormy but cottage was warm and comfortable. 15 minute walk down to Swami’s beach and restaurants on the strip.
Wonderful time very cozy and comfortable close to everything
Nice, clean, easy-to-access location with very friendly and helpful property owners. I stayed with my wife, our 5-month-old, and my mom and it worked out well for us. Carol provided a porta-crib which worked great, really nice outdoor space.
This was a perfect casita for two for our short cycling holiday in Encinitas. Carol and Tony were lovely hosts. It's exactly as advertised, and even though it's close to the highway it is super quiet. We slept like logs after long days of cycling! It's about a 12 minute walk to Swami Beach. Only downside for us road bikers was the evil hill at the end of each day to get back to the property. :-) But probably good for the cycling muscles! The delicious pound of french roast coffee that was left for us was an added bonus.
Great, clean, cozy house with all you need. Beautiful yard, great hosts, and really good location close to everything.
Tony and Caroline were great hosts. We had full use of the back patio and yard while we were there. Easy 15 minute walk down to swamis beach and into town. Lots of great restaurants and surfer watching. The little Kaseeta in their backyard was comfortable, just a touch on the small side but it was great for my son and I.
Charming casita, close to the beach, everything you need, even surfboards. Owners were great and provided advise on surf spots and hikes. Thank you for the hospitality.
Tony and Carol are the best. The property itself is comfortable, clean, well cared for. The backyard is an oasis. Make this your home base for any San Diego area trips. I hope we can return soon. Encinitas is a great surfer town with great shopping, food and drink. Gorgeous views and access to the ocean.
We had such a lovely time at Tony and Carol's property. It had everything we needed, and Tony and Carol were such wonderful hosts. We walked to Swami's Beach for the sunset and enjoyed restaurants nearby. The garden area was a peaceful place to start and end the day. Everything we wanted to do was just a short drive away. Would definitely stay here again!
More than I could have imagined- fit my needs wonderfully. Carol and Tony will astound you with their kindness and the beauty of their VRBO.
This was our second time stying at the Casita, the first was 7 years ago. We loved our visit 7 years ago and loved it just as much this time. Great location and excellent ammenities and super helpful Host. Thanks for a great stay.
Cozy little cottage that was just what we needed for a fun beach vacation.
I have stayed at Carol and Tony's property in the past and this visit was just as great as our last. Amazing hosts, lovely yard and great location. Can't wait to come back.
We enjoyed our time here-the outdoor space is beautiful and the location is great. We walked to shops and restaurants. Hosts Tony and Carol were friendly and helpful. Would stay here again!
