    The views were amazing along with the weather! The beds were very comfortable along with the furniture. It could have been cleaner bit it was ok. Also there was absolutely no kitchen extras as in foil or cooking oils etc but they warn you of that. Also there are no beach chairs or toys so you need to prepare for that. It’s a great location with so many great restaurants within walking distance. Don’t miss the Lucadia farmer’s market on Sunday. It’s great. Overall it was a wonderful trip and hopefully will be back.

    The view is spectacular and makes up for some of the other short comings. The rental could have been more clean especially the showers and the couches. I washed the sheets, as I do at every rental when I arrive, and the mattress cover had stains. Also, there was a lingering odor of dog. While I did bring my 9 pound multipoo, I have stayed at other dog friendly places and you would never know it caters to dogs. Further, there is a need for maintenance around the place such as the master bathroom shower door felt like it could come off the hinge any day, the glass balcony did not seem secure as it did not have the brackets in between each slab of glass. This is a great location and a wonderful view but the rental is in need of some TLC.

    San Diego beach-front property. The view and cool breeze is amazing. We stayed for 8 nights. It’s a short walk to the neighborhood surfers beach or you can drive to Moonlight in less than 5 minutes, where there are smaller waves, a snack bar, playground and showers. We walked to dinner and coffee shops. The house came with all of the necessary amenities. I like that there were 3 full bathrooms.

    The property is in a great location right on the coastal bluffs with stunning views north and south. Wonderful sound of ocean waves crashing! The house was clean and well equipped with comfortable beds and pillows. A tad rundown due to proximity to the ocean. And only odd thing is that the property is a duplex and shares a wall with an adjoining five or six bedroom rental, which has access to the larger patio shown in the photos for this unit.

    Spectacular view of the ocean from this fantastic beach house. We had a few issues but they were dealt with promptly and were resolved. We highly recommend staying at this house!

    Loved our stay at this little home on Neptune. Photos definitely are not indicative of the state of the home though - the place is more run down than it seems and the photos are definitely taken on wide angle, especially on the room with the bunk bed. The master shower is horrendous, we didn't even use it once, and the fixtures are old/unstable. I wouldn't recommend this place for young kids (was fine for crawling baby but lots of rusty metal in bed frame, chair bolts, etc). On the POSITIVE side, the views make up for anything the home lacks. The neighborhood is awesome for lots of walks and nearby coffee/food. The management team was great to communicate with (over text) and very helpful when we needed some adjustments to our reservation.

    Overall the house is lovely. Felt like a dream. We saw dolphins every morning and beautiful sunsets in the evening. Everything a short walk or short drive away. Hosts communicated well, resolved issues quickly, and provided great amenities.

    The property is set in an ideal location in Encenitas. The view of the ocean especially at sunset is beautiful! There is everything you need and it all works perfectly. The beds are super confortable. Great A/C and central heating. Close to the beach, coffee shop, small local grocery and many more. We had a great stay, thak you!
