“By far the best vacation rental I’ve ever stayed in.” That’s how one past guest described their experience. Visitors rave about the “kitchen with literally everything in it,” the “backyard to die for,” and the “thoughtful touches” that make them “sad to leave.” Just 3 miles from the sand, this single-story retreat blends “linens and towels that felt like something out of a luxury hotel” with the warmth of home. Nestled in a “quiet neighborhood” minutes from top beaches, dining, and hiking trails, it’s a rare place where toddlers, grandparents, and everyone in between feel instantly comfortable.
(We’re new to VRBO but not to hosting — we’ve welcomed approximately 50 guest stays on another platform, earning a perfect 5-star rating.)
Welcome to Your Coastal Garden Retreat
Step inside and you’ll discover what past guests describe as “immaculately clean” and “beautifully decorated” spaces, thoughtfully organized so everything is easy to find. With nearly 2,000 square feet on a single story, the home combines openness with coziness — offering plenty of room for family time as well as quiet corners to relax.
Kitchen & Dining
Guests call it “the most fully stocked kitchen in all the many places we have rented” and “a chef’s dream.” High-end stainless appliances, a generous island, and clearly labeled cabinets make cooking stress-free.
The solid-wood farmhouse table expands to seat everyone for lively dinners or competitive board-game nights, and the 13-foot cabana doors invite breezy indoor–outdoor meals.
Living Spaces
The airy family room is perfect for games or movies on the smart TV, while the living room’s fireplace and restored 1896 Knabe grand piano (with digital player system) create a special atmosphere for gathering.
Outdoor Paradise
“A backyard to die for.” Step through the cabana doors to discover:
Pergola-covered patio with comfortable seating
Fire pit lounge for sunset cocktails and stargazing
BBQ grill for easy cookouts
Hammock for afternoon naps
Children’s “adorable playhouse” plus toys and games that are “a huge hit” with kids
Lush landscaping guests call “a spot of paradise”
It’s the perfect setting for morning coffee, golden-hour cocktails, and making memories.
Bedrooms & Workspace
Primary Suite: Plush king bed, private bath, and what one guest described as “beds [that] were wonderfully comfortable… linens and towels felt like something out of a luxury hotel.”
Three Additional Bedrooms: Two Queen and one with twin-over-twin trundle — all with “cozy mattresses and pillows.”
Work-From-Home Ready: A front bedroom doubles as a serene office with L-shaped desk, ergonomic chair, and garden views.
Family-Friendly Extras
Families appreciate the stocked toys, books, and games, plus baby gear like a full-sized crib, Pack ’n Play, high chair, and baby bath. The fully fenced yard makes outdoor play easy and stress-free.
Modern Comforts
Central A/C + whole-house fan
Eero mesh Wi-Fi system
State-of-the-art water filtration system
Smart TVs with satellite cable
Location
Guests love being “minutes to the beach” yet in a “quiet neighborhood.” Just 3 miles from Moonlight State Beach and near “amazing hiking trails right in the neighborhood,” you’ll also have easy access to Legoland (11 miles), Del Mar Fairgrounds (5 miles), La Jolla (16 miles), and downtown San Diego and airport (25 miles).
Encinitas has been named one of Forbes’ Best Places to Travel, with “a laid-back California vibe with world-class beaches, shops, and dining” — and your quiet cul-de-sac retreat is right in the middle of it all.
