Our stay was wonderful. And Jim was very thoughtful with everything that he left as instructions in the place. A good surprise was a big screen for my husband to plug in his laptop so he could work and I enjoyed the Carlsbad water that he provided. thank you Jim. We had a great time.

Culinary Bliss in a Historic Beachside Haven
Hands down, this is the best VRBO we've ever stayed at. As avid cooks, we prefer to dine in rather than eat out when vacationing, and this place was perfect for that. The owner provided everything we needed for cooking indoors, plus a BBQ in the yard. One of the amenities we loved was the filtered water in 5-gallon jugs. The amenities throughout the property exceeded our expectations, and we never had to make a store run for anything.When I first saw the photos online, I assumed the yard images were for the entire property, but they were actually for our unit. The residence and yard were incredibly private and relaxing. We even had a delightful chat with the owner one evening about the property's history and his special connection to it. If you love immersing yourself in the local culture, this property, with its proximity to the beach and the owner’s passion for surfing, offers a truly enriching experience.

This was an ideal property that matched our hopes perfectly! The owner was beyond helpful, friendly, and it was obvious he wanted to share his love for his hometown with us! It was walking distance from the beach, the boardwalk and restaurants. It was supplied with everything we could have needed, and, we loved the cozy patio area when friends visited.

Beach week getaway
I recently stayed at this lovely 1-bedroom beach property and had an amazing experience. The location is unbeatable—just blocks from the beach, and close to shops and restaurants. The cottage is charmingly decorated with a coastal theme, making it feel like a true getaway. The living area is comfortable, the kitchen is fully equipped, and the bedroom has a cozy bed for a great night's sleep.
The outdoor patio is perfect for enjoying morning coffee with beach chairs and umbrellas provided for added convenience. The host was attentive and provided clear instructions, making my stay stress-free.
Overall, this beach property is a perfect retreat for anyone looking to relax by the sea. Highly recommended!
