Brisa Pacific Hotel Encinitas

8/10 Good

"Clean, very basic breakfast, great location, pool, dogs allowed, small comfortable hotel. Restaurants nearby."

Cliffside Oceanfront Gem - Stunning Views & Yard

10/10 Excellent

"The house was exactly as photographed. The location was key! .20 of a mile from the beach trail and lots of eateries and coffee shops all within walking distance. We did have a vehicle and parking at the Vrbo was adequate. We wouldn’t have needed a vehicle the area is very walkable friendly. We had to contact the host a couple of times for questions and they replied quickly. It was unseasonably warm and humid for our visit so not having AC was a little brutal in the common areas. Did have lots of fans amx each BR had some kind of AC unit. Would recommend."

Ocean Front Beacons Beach, Amazing View, Surfboard

10/10 Excellent

"Great sunsets!! Although the beach access is quintessential Leucadia cliff path, it was right across the street!! Perfect!!!"

Beautiful Oceanfront Home, Gorgeous Views, Deck and Patio! Best Value!

10/10 Excellent

"This is a beautiful property, overlooking the ocean. The deck is large so that we could all enjoy views of the ocean and spectacular sunsets. The house is roomy, well appointed and comfortable, kitchen is well stocked with all the necessary appliances and spices. Beds are comfortable, bathrooms are clean and modern.We had our family reunion here and couldn’t ask for anything more! I’m sure we will return."

Seaside Luxury Duplex with Putting Green E950-0

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic place to enjoy Beacons beach and Encinitas with a large group. Definitely coming back."

50' Ocean Front + 5 Outdoor Spaces + Dogs OK + AC

10/10 Excellent

"Our family (5 adults, 2 small dogs) had a great 5 day stay. The house is beautiful and the large ocean front patio is amazing! Also having our own private steps down to the beach was a huge plus. Comfortable beds and all bedrooms have an ocean view. We had a great vacation here. Thank you."

10 min walk to the beach, hot tub and pool table - Dolphin's Cove in Leucadia

10/10 Excellent

"The property was pretty much exactly what was advertised. Had no issues with the place."

Beautiful Oceanfront Sanctuary E952-0

10/10 Excellent

"We recently had the pleasure of staying at this large home perched high on the cliffs overlooking Beacon Beach in Encinitas on Neptune Ave. We were impressed by how clean the property was. We rented the top half of the house, which featured 3 spacious bedrooms/2 baths, laundry on the main floor & an upstairs master & full bath, along with a second attic style bedroom that could sleep 3 or 4 children & a rooftop jacuzzi.The layout was perfect for our group,w/ first floor large open kitchen & a living room that opened up to an expansive balcony. The outdoor seating area was delightful, providing us w/breathtaking panoramic views of the ocean & the coastline & front-row seat to the surfers at Beacon Beach. The upstairs primary bedroom was comfortable w/a private balcony and large shared bathroom. The second bedroom, which could accommodate two to three beds, was small. This room had a sink but does not have an en-suite bathroom, which means guests would need to share the master bathroom. This setup worked for our group but could be a consideration for larger families. One downside for us was the adjacent parking lot for Beacon Beach. At sunset, this area becomes quite crowded w/people gathering to enjoy the views, & we experienced loud music from a mobile DJ. Thankfully, everyone honored the 9 o’clock quiet time, but having a baby with us made it a bit challenging due to the noise. Many stairs. We appreciated A/C &Having the garage but it is VERY busy location on Neptune Ave."
