Amazing views!
We loved the house, especially the backyard. Had everything we needed and captivating views. The only drawback was that accessing the beach wasn't as easy as it looked due to the train tracks and highway between the house and the beach. From our experience, you have to walk down several blocks to cross safely. But that would not stop us from going back again! Love Cardiff & Encinitas!!

Our son is going to university near by and we wanted a spot where we could all meet up over spring break. The home is lovely, the views spectacular! Had everything we needed and was a short walk to local restaurants. Gina has great communication skills and made booking effortless. Wonderful vacation home and our family would stay here again.
