We had a lovely stay. The home was conveniently located close to downtown Encinitas. The home was in a quiet neighborhood. It was clean, spacious, and well stocked. The property group responded quickly to any questions. The outdoor space was wonderful, we really enjoyed the hot tub and views of the ocean. Highly recommend staying here!

We loved our stay in the cottage in Encinitas! It was the perfect spot for our family of 4. We enjoyed sitting on the front steps and watching the sunset over the Ocean, the quick walk down the hill to Swami's beach and into town for ice cream, and the hot tub each evening. Kids loved running around in the backyard and enjoyed an orange from the beautiful orange tree in the yard. It was quiet and cozy and great for making meals in versus eating out every meal! Go to Lazy Acres store, it was the best!Only drawback was the dishwasher not working, which they property owners were quick to respond to and offer a solution for. And a few ants (which seem to be an Encinitas-wide problem, not isolated to this cottage), they really weren't that much of a bother.Thanks for having us, we'd most definitely return!

Great Location, Beautiful sunsets, Fantastic Fruit trees!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house is in a great location. We walked for coffee every morning, to the beach, all around Encinitas for meals and shopping. The fruit trees in the back yard are such a bonus! We ate oranges, lemons and avocados! We either went to the beach or could watch the beautiful sunset from the front window. This house is very well maintained with comfortable furniture and beds. We would definitely stay here again!

Great Getaway

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed a week at the Coastal Cottage and it was wonderful. The property was clean and had everything we needed. No a/c, but opening the front and back doors for the cross breeze was the best! Upon arrival and initial walk-through, we realized a few items were broken - a hinge on one of the cabinet doors and the rear door lock wasn’t functioning. We also noticed a significant amount of dirt and sand inside the hot tub - the water was very dirty. I reported these items to the management company right away and they not only responded quickly, but had someone out the next day to fix things. It did take 2 days for them to get the hot tub cleaned. The location was great and the neighborhood was incredibly safe. Highly recommend!
