Amazing views of ocean! Well equipt kitchen
Our group of 4 felt like we won the lottery with this amazing home with distant views of the ocean from the kitchen window and an expansive view of the ocean from the rooftop patio. We loved the outdoor kitchen and bar for hanging out and remote work. Sunsets on the rooftop were spectacular. We are serious home cooks and the kitchen had literally everything we could possibly need cookware and tool wise. Cardiff was a great spot away from the crowds and traffic of LaJolla with quick access to beautiful Solana Beach and charming seaside destinations from Del Mar to Encinitas. We will stay here again for sure!

Perfect stay in Cardiff
The house was perfect for our stop in San Diego on our road trip. My husband and I stayed for 5 days and also worked a few days from home, even spent a few of those outside on the patio! The house had everything we needed to make all our meals and was the perfect layout for hanging out and relaxing. We can’t wait to return again, hopefully when skies are clear and we can catch the sunset from the upstairs deck!

Had everything we needed, was super clean and well appointed. The only issue we had was that the internet would drop at times, not sure this was in the owner's control so we didn't contact anyone about it. the house was gorgeous! Would stay there again.

The home was very well kept and all items for a four day stay were in place. True ocean view from top-deck and nice back yard. This was one of the best homes we've chosen over the years. Hope to come back. The owner communicated well. Thanks George! Matthew S.

Great stay!
The house is nicely updated and well equipped. It’s in a nice neighborhood that is close to downtown Encinitas and the freeway as well as the beach. The only thing I would mention is that there is a natural gas smell in the garage. It’s not that strong and the owner was very responsive when I mentioned it and came to check it with a meter. We loved our stay overall.

Great house close to everything!
We had a wonderful time at the Cardiff house. The house was very clean and is only a mile to the beach, great restaurants, and shops. George was extremely responsive. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. The best part is the upper deck with views of the ocean. We’d go up there every morning for yoga and breakfast, and at the end of the day for sunsets. If I were to mention any negatives it would be that you can’t regulate the heat in the house yourself. It has a set program, so if it gets cold, like it did when we were there, George will have to change the program to make it warmer from his end. Also, you can hear the Hwy which is just a few blocks down the hill. But we didn’t notice that after a while. We look forward to staying there again sometime!

Great house in a cozy town
I really liked this house. It's very spacious with lots of areas to hang out in, inside and outside. The master bed is amazingly comfortable and I really loved being able to access the backyard from there as well. The kitchen is stocked with plenty of pots/pans/devices which was a nice touch. There's a high chair and a packnplay in the garage which will be a lifesaver for anyone planning on bringing a little one. Check in was easy, house was clean and welcoming and the sunset view from the sun deck is not to be missed. I highly recommend this house and I hope to return some day.

Great communication from the host, and an excellent location in a nice quiet neighborhood close to everything! Very clean with everything you need, for a comfortable stay with a great west-facing backyard and upper deck to enjoy the sunsets. We are two adults plus our two french bulldogs. Everyone was happy staying here. We will definitely stay here again the next time we are in town.

Great house with a great location
Stayed here for almost a week for a pre Thanksgiving vacation with my family. The house was very clean and great location, very close to the beach. The backyard was perfect for my kids to hang out and play around. The rooftop was a great addition to watch the sunset. Living room TV was not working but George the owner was on top of it to get it fixed for us. Would definitely come back.
