Clean w/Comfy Bed

We visited Carlsbad for a long weekend to be with family and to celebrate my uncle’s 100th birthday. Highest priority for us is clean unit and comfy beds - this checked both boxes. We enjoyed our stay and appreciate owner’s quick response to a minor incident. She is readily available to assist and we appreciated that. Great place to stay. We highly recommend.

I had an amazing stay at this VRBO in Carlsbad! I was in town for a conference, and the location was perfect—within walking distance of everything I needed. The place was well-maintained, and had all the comforts of home. The host was great, making the entire experience seamless. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Carlsbad!

A fabulous 10 day stay away from home.

Property was excellent and exceeded our expectations. Bed comfortable, kitchen and bathrooms well stocked. Location was perfect for us to play golf and visit all the sites in all the beach cities and downtown San Diego and specifically the Gaslamp District. Overall a wonderful stay in a well equipped and well appointed condo with all the conveniences of home. Excellent!! Paul & Eileen

Great stay!

We spent a month in this condo and found it to be one of the nicest in our frequent travels. It was very well stocked, clean and comfortable. The shower was the best we’ve ever had and the bed was comfortable. The location was near any number of shops and restaurants and close enough to make visiting San Diego a breeze. The only thing that wasn’t ideal was some noise from the elevator or condo above that woke my husband who’s a very light sleeper . Michelle was excellent at communicating and helpfulness. We would definitely stay here again

Safe Haven

Michelle was a great host. The property was immaculate and clean. We felt safe on the property. I even took walks each day. The rental was only an hour from Disney. We left around 6:30am and didn’t even hit traffic. We stopped by Laguna Beach on the way home, which was beautiful. Unfortunately, it was too chilly to swim, but we did get a semi warm beach day at Carlsbad Beach. There’s quite a bit to do there and in Encinitas. We highly recommend Casa de Bandini for Mexican food. It was delicious.

21st Anniversary Stay

Unfortunately, we didn't have an enjoyable time due to the noisy neighbors upstairs above us. They had little kids that was running pretty much all day starting at 6am, then really kicked in higher fear at about 5pm to 8:30pm for sure! Very upsetting, and no relaxation at all. Also, next to noisy elevator and curtains in living room didn't completely close. Appreciate the wine the host gave us. Host was very nice, and gracious, indeed. Lovely condo. Be aware the people with kids running amuck will be there until December.
