Coastal Soul – Oceanfront Vacation Rental on the Bluff of Leucadia

A beautiful location and property. Very minor things need attention and were immediately taken care of. Management co was very good and responsive!

Great location the house was perfect but at this price I expected a much more updated clean place- I think the house needs some work also not enough supplies for a 6 day stay we had to buy our own garbage bags toilet paper and dish washing also no toilet scrubbers available

The location couldn't be better! The ocean view is enough to take your breath away! Fantastic!! Sitting on the deck and watching the waves was so relaxing. The neighborhood was quiet and the garage parking made things easy. The house is close to everything and walking distance to the beach access.

The location was perfect for walks on the beach, watching the surfers, walking access to restaurants & coffee shops. Listening to the ocean blissful to this otherwise landlocked visitor. It was pleasant and comfortable to be at the condo both inside & out on the deck.

View and location was great. House was clean. On the negative side, 3 rolls of cheap toilet paper provided only for a 3 bathroom house, zero beach equipment provided, like beach chairs, etc. How do you have a house on the ocean with no beach equipment. Really disappointing

Stayed for a week with our family of 4 (kids 9yrs and 7mo) and my parents. It was mostly perfect with the setup, location, and ocean views.The only knock on this place is the photos make it seem much more upscale and updated than it is. But the large deck looking over the ocean and floor to ceiling windows were worth it. Being walking distance to the beach, coffee shops and restaurants was amazing. Plus Legoland is just down the street and so is much of San Diego.

The view and deck were unbeatable and the master bedroom was perfect!

Great views, ideal location for Beacon's and Stone Steps beaches. Watched dolphins and surfers from the deck and upstairs balcony. Walking distance to beaches, Vigilucci's Trattoria, Birdseye Kitchen, Pannikin coffee. Responsive property manager for easy planning, check in, and checkout. Plenty of towels and amenities made it very comfortable.

The kitchen appliances, dish washer, coffee maker were sub-par. all the knives were too dull to use. When we arrived there was a film on every surface, the floors were dirty, however, the problem was remedy fairly quickly with a good clean. over-all it was a good rental but has the potential to be a great rental. we would consider renting it again if some of things mentioned above were updated.

Loved the house and location. Not real convenient having to return the keys to the rental office

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had an amazing stay at Coastal Soul. The property was ideal for our group of six, providing a perfect setting for bonding not only with each other but also with the ocean and its vibrant marine life.However, upon arrival, we found several flies trapped inside the apartment, which took up most of our first day to clear out. We suspect they entered through an open window (without screen) in the nook area that was left open accidently.

Walkable and quiet neighborhood near beach, shopping, and restaurants. Overall a nice comfortable place that had some updates in 2023. Nice linens, extra towels, garage parking with garage door opener, wonderful deck, Master bedroom fan, W/D, sweeper/broom, lots of TV's, and updated furniture and blinds. Beds were firm, but we ended up sleeping decent. We did not cook a lot but kitchen seemed pretty stocked, other than we did not have any dish towels for drying hands or dishes. Home really needs new windows as many would not open at all, and this is an issue when no air conditioner. The big issues were the smell in the garage upon arrival due to the dog feces in the trash cans (smell stuck around for most of the stay), and the home not being properly cleaned after the prior guest. The home did not smell fresh and clean, and there was lots of dog hair on the floors. I paid an extra cleaning fee of $350.00 so my daughter's dogs could visit us at the rental, and the home was not even clean from the prior dog that was there. That was frustrating. The bathroom upstairs was not as clean as expected, and the tub had difficulty draining. I had gotten used to renting through private individual owners who seem to offer a more personal experience and touches. I have rarely ever had cleanliness issues with individual owners. Amenities like beach equipment would have been nice since we were so close to the beach access point. With a few improvements, this could be a 5 star property, and I might look to stay again when visiting our daughter who lives in Carlsbad.
