Villa Bahia Your Waterfront Private Beach Retreat in Beautiful Carlsbad

The property is absolutely beautiful. Great location. Communication with the host was incredible.

The house was beautiful, clean and well equipped but there were some minor issues: The smoke detector in the main floor was missing, Several windows in the master bedroom on the main floor were broken and fell out of the frames when we tried to open them and there should be some type of railing on the bottom floor deck to prevent someone from falling in to the pool. It would have been nice to know there was construction going on next door. Otherwise it was terrific!

This property is amazing! Wonderful patios and beach for endless fun. Excellent and easy communication with the owners.

It was amazing

Had our annual family reunion here. It had the perfect set up! Plenty of room for us to be together and plenty of space to take some time apart!The outdoor space was phenomenal as was the kitchen. They were very responsive when we had questions which was very much appreciated.We will definitely keep this place in mind for our next gathering!

Our family came together to celebrate my parents 60th anniversary and this house had something for everyone! We had three generations (ages 22-84) in our party and everyone could find something to do. The pool and jacuzzi were a big hits as were all the water toys. The house is very spacious with lots of room for family meals together as well as quiet time to read. Thanks so much to the hosts for everything they did to make this a special vacation for my parents. We would definitely come back.

This is a spectacular house with a beautiful pool, its own lagoon beach and is close to the Carlsbad ocean beach. This was our second stay at this location and we had a great time. Highly recommended.

Spectacular property! The accommodations were incredible! The house is equipped with everything you need and Bruce and Barbara left us a greeting basket of toys, snacks and wine. Everything was above and beyond what we expected! Plenty of activities and restaurants close by to keep everyone happy. We had five kids between the ages of 15 and 17 and seven adults up to the age of 75. Can't wait to return next year. Thank you Bruce and Barbara for being such gracious hosts!

I cannot say enough about this property!! Barb was incredibly welcoming and thorough with her welcome basket. It is one of the most well-stocked houses we have ever stayed with our children (I regretted packing several things because we didn't need them!!). Floaties/life jackets, towels, beach chairs, paddle boards, beach toys, kayaks, karaoke machine, kid toys, high chairs, pack n play, baby gate, baby monitors, noise machines, kid cups/dishes...all provided!! The kitchen had everything we could ever need, especially TWO large fridges and freezers in the kitchen and pantry. We only left the house once to go to the beach during our entire stay because we had such a fun time in the pool and playing in the bay. For the 4th we watched the Legoland fireworks across the bay while roasting marshmallows around the bonfire next to the water. It was so nice and no fighting traffic after the show was over! We had 3 little mobile ones in addition to older toddlers and kiddos and I was so worried about water safety around the pool but it turned out fine due to the fact that on the main floor there was a huge play room, the primary floor outdoor balcony does not lead down to the water area and the stairs to the basement were secured with a locking baby gate pre-installed for us. This allowed us to have the babies safely contained on the main floor during meal preparation/eating which gave parents peace of mind. Loved it all!!!

Villa Bahia is an amazing home! It was a perfect spot for our family vacation with 10 adults and 4 grandchildren ages ranging from 1-75. The home is very comfortable and well stocked with everything you'll need. A grocery store is conveniently located in about a 5 minute drive. There's plenty of beach towels, pool toys, beach toys, games, and a playroom with lots of fun toys and books for the littles. The owners were great to deal with and always responded quickly to our questions. We were surprised by the very generous gift basket that was left for us on the kitchen island. Thank you so much, it was such a kind gesture to kick off our week and it was enjoyed by all. We can't say enough about how fabulous this home is, our week was perfect in every way! Tom and Terri
