Wonderful experience for our first time on Solana Beach

We really enjoyed ourselves in this unit. Kitchen has been updated. Views were great from patio and living room. This complex has an excellent access to the beach, however you must like steps since it has 126 steps to Beach. Beach is absolutely beautiful and Dog Beach is very close. The complex is very friendly and quiet. Close to great restaurants and other services.

Property was easy to get to and has private underground parking. I didn't realize the property was on the third floor with no elevator. If you are handicapped this is not the property for you as there are 3 flights of stairs. Property is very clean and nicely decorated. Owner very helpful and was much appreciated when we talked about an issue with the lock. I would recommend this to anyone who is looking to be lulled to sleep by the sounds of the waves.

The only downsides were no elevators and really tight parking spaces to get in and out of with a larger sized vehicle, no air-conditioning however she is installing ceiling fans this weekend.

We have had other VRBO units that were much nicer than this. First impression, the front door had cuts and looked like someone tried to break in. The host gave us the wrong gate code, ice maker and garbage disposal didn't work, could only use the living room ceiling fan on low, the hand soap dispensers were empty, no aluminum foil. I have never been anyplace that didn't provide a hair dryer. It was a workout opening the sliding porch door. The spa was closed, and in our 3 week stay, the water was shut off twice for a few hours. The host was not personable. I am giving it 3 stars because we did have a nice view of the ocean and the location was good.

Nice place but check-in was difficult

I rented this apartment for my son and his family. We have an apartment in the same complex and we needed more space. Sadly, the apartment was not clean upon arrival. I guess a cat was there prior to our arrival and there was a lot of cat hair. Also, knowing that security in the complex was increased, I tried to provide the necessary information but it was not entered into the system so the guests were not listed for access to the amenities until a day late. The owner/manager seemed confused as to the proper check-in requirements. I am sure it will get sorted out for the next occupants. The pictures on the website were accurate. Note, there is not a sofa bed.

NOT FOR HANDICAP

After flying into the San Diego airport and seeing the homeless/drug crisis, it was refreshing to see an immaculately maintained, secured property. This residence had all the amenities of home. It was stocked with the little extras that you always forget to pack. Having a laundry facility on site made it easy too. We made the most delicious steaks on the charcoal grill. They only complaint would be the family room furniture. When you come home from sight seeing, walking the beach, climbing the hundreds of stairs….everyone wants to stretch out and prop their feet up. The couch is extremely uncomfortable. But we knew that before we went because the pictures showed this. The Del Mar area seemed to be very safe. There were a few panhandlers as you exited the highway, but none laying on the streets of the city. You could walk freely and safely. This area has a lot to do. I would highly recommend this location and condo. Please be aware that there are MANY FLIGHTS OF STAIRS to get down to the ocean. And 3 flights to get up to this condo.

Great Location

The location was perfect for us. We enjoyed having coffee/cocktails on the deck watching the sunsets. We also loved having the hot tub. The many stairs to the unit and to the beach did not both us. Secured parking was also a plus. We booked for 3 months but left early due to plumbing issues in the building and were reimbursed for that time. There were other issues with plumbing while we were there that took a couple of days to repair but was done as quick as possible. We were instructed not to use the garbage disposal (that's ok for a short stay but not for long term). The description indicated the unit had been totally remodeled but we found it dated (old, dirty trash compactor, missing covers to canned ceiling lights, broken lamp and a bad smell in the kitchen around the sink, old kitchen floor tile, etc. The window treatment in the dining room was broken and finally replaced toward the end of our stay. I don't think the coffee pot had ever been cleaned along with a tea pot, pot holders and hand mixer. As someone else mentioned the couch is very uncomfortable. We sat in the dining room the majority of the time. The bedrooms were spacious and beds were fine. We would most likely not stay at this unit again but the location was great!

Pay for Hilton, get Motel 6

Our stay started off by arriving to the unit after a 6-hour drive only to find the beds not made up, dirty towels in the tub, food in the fridge, etc. Clearly not what we expected. Although the owner was very apologetic and managed to get a cleaning woman in within the hour, we were unable to get our luggage in until 9 pm. The unit is on the 3rd floor and needless to say, lugging our gear up 2 flights of stairs didn't add to the experience.The next day we scoped the place out; couldn't use the garbage disposal, kitchen sink faucet didn't fully retract, trash compactor hadn't been cleaned, bathroom rugs were dirty, heating was questionable with no instructions on how to operate it. The listing describes the unit as "newly remodeled", which is very misleading. Cabinets are "well-used", barstools needed repair, screen to balcony was torn and the overall vibe was one of haphazard-ness. Neither bedroom had any closet space for personal items. The rules of the HOA regarding pets are VERY restrictive.The one good aspect of this VRBO was the location to the dog beach. As we travel with our pup, it was nice to be able to have the beach in such close proximity. We contacted the owner directly with our concerns/experience and she was very gracious about returning our money since we decided to leave a week earlier than planned.

Not a 5 star property, but good enough

We stayed for a week and made it work for us. The property and location are beautiful. I was surprised by so many 5 star reviews, although I tend to always leave them as well. I just can’t this time. The first thing my husband had to do was clean out the garbage disposal by hand because the water was backing up. Mind you, none of what he cleaned came from us which made it more more unpleasant. Then next thing he did was untangle 10 different wires and figure out how to get the tv to work in the kids room. The coffee maker and bbq haven’t been cleaned in ages, but there was also no propane in the bbq. Being on the beach we expected access to a vacuum, but there wasn’t one to be found so had to borrow my sister’s who lives in Carlsbad and return it before we left. We had our 4 & 7 year olds with us so there was a lot of sand! They couldn’t take a bath though because there was no bath plug. Couldn’t do any laundry because there was no way to get into the laundry room with the key provided. There are also typed up notes taped everywhere and there was nowhere to put any of our pantry items. A previous tenant made this same comment and the owner replied there is a hall closet but this closet was completely locked up. I had to rearrange things to get a little space in the cabinet. The closet in the second bedroom is also locked up and the closet in the master is totally full with maybe 4 hangers. The hand soap and windex had so much water added them they were virtually useless. The only extra blanket was a scratchy wool throw and the master bed mattress is so broken down that I felt I would roll onto the floor sometimes. My tip would be to bring your own everything, although it really don’t think it should be this way. We didn’t feel that welcome and definitely could tell the owner/property manager really doesn’t care that much about making sure you have things you’ll need to be comfortable. If you want a great location and don’t care about these things this place is great but wouldn’t recommend if you have small children.

Great Experience, Great Property!

One of the best overall VRBO experiences I've had! The communication was good from the first inquiry and throughout the stay. Place was clean and prefect for what we needed. The condo is in a secured community with a great location and a short walk to the beach. Solana Beach is a cliff beach setting and that's what makes it beautiful so there is a staircase to get there, but nothing like a little exercise to breath in the fresh ocean air. Experienced an amazing sunset our last night sitting out on the patio that overlooks the ocean. I would highly recommend it!
