    Such a beautiful home! Nice and secluded from the urban SoCal area. Family was able to enjoy San Diego, then retire in a nice spacious villa.

    We spent every day in the pool! This was perfect for our group of 19. Arcade games and the pool/pingpong tables were very popular, and we completed several puzzles on the dining table. Plenty of room for spreading out or gathering as a group. Picked up Tip Top Meats prime rib dinners dinners the first night, took sand castle building lesson with EJ, and Chef Alonzo came in and cooked a marvelous Italian dinner our last night. Very private feeling and wonderful views. Fed the horses treats and observed humming birds, bunnies, lizards, frogs and a snake! So cool. Bob, his son Dylan and Roy, the daily main man, were very responsive to any requests we had for assistance.

    Fantastic property and owners. Beautiful spacious estate overlooking the hills with a wonderful pool and hot tub. Plenty of room for our guests. Owners Bob and Dylan were prompt, polite, and always accommodating. Nearby horses were a big plus! There’s a small town just a few minutes drive with grocery store, a Starbucks, and a few restaurants. This was a superb getaway for my old medical school friends and I, and we recommend you get in touch with Bob and book this place right away!

    Don't even give it a second thought! The Ranch by the Sea is amazing. Wonderful memories will be had. Our family of 5 (Mom, Dad, and 3 teen boys) had a awesome time! At first we were concerned that it would be too big but it suited us perfectly and we could see how it would comfortably suit much larger parties as well. There was so much to do and see. Pros: *Views, they were amazing!!! Just stunning. We loved hanging out on the balconies and enjoying them. *The flowers and plants growing on the property were gorgeous. It was fun to walk around and take a look at them all. *The horses, Blondie & Culpepper were super sweet. We enjoyed visiting them, petting them, & feeding them carrots. *The video games & pool table provided a lot of fun. One of the pinball machines was not working when we got there but once we informed Bob he had it repaired immediately. *Bob, the owner, was very responsive to our needs. He typically responded right away. *Surplus of supplies. The place was well stocked with the exception of shampoo, conditioner & body wash but those were easy to get down the road at Albertsons. *Alphonso the private chef, recommended by Bob, was out of this world good! We HIGHLY RECOMMEND having him come cater a few meals. We had him 2 of our 5 nights and wish we would have had him over more. It was such a treat and the food was sooooo good and reasonably priced. If I had to come up with some Cons it would be the following: *The place could use a sprucing up of paint here & there. *The diving board in the pics is no longer there. *The microwave was wonky but worked with some finessing. None of the Cons were even remotely deal breakers, just things we noticed. Overall this place was just wonderful. As a family that has rented dozens of homes, we found this one to be our favorite. We would definitely love to visit again!

    The property was incredible, the pool and hot tub were really nice. We had a group of 22 adults and Bob made the check-in process incredibly easy. Lots of space with enough beds for everyone. Would definitely rent again!

    This property offers the best of both worlds ! A rambling estate in a serene setting yet only about a half hour to the beach so that you can enjoy all that southern CA has to offer. Our grandkids loved being able to see and feed horses, climb on the playground and swing on the tree swings. And the pool area and other entertainment areas were just perfect . Bob was very attentive and accommodating and the property truly had everything we needed to enjoy a wonderful family vacation!

    The property was fantastic! Bob was a very communicative and enthusiastic host. He provided us with lots of info and details on the house and activities. He gave a great deal to stay at the house for a couple extra days. He cared about his guests and making sure all the aspects of the property were sufficient for us! Great heated pool and jacuzzi, and beautiful patio! Amazing experience overall.
