Coastal Del Mar studio with fabulous views - 10 min walk to the beach!
Enjoy gorgeous panoramic views of Torrey Pines State Reserve, Peñasquitos Lagoon and the Pacific Ocean from your windows, private balcony, and large deck. Located in a residential neighborhood, it's a short walk to a coffee shop, 4 restaurants, and Torrey Pines State Beach. Nearby Torrey Pines State Reserve has miles of trails for every ability. Drive 2 miles north to the seaside village of Del Mar or hop on the I-5 or 56 freeways to easily access within minutes all that beautiful San Diego has to offer.
The studio is bright and airy; windows and skylights provide lots of natural light but black out shades provide darkness when you want to sleep in. We've tried to provide everything we like in a home-away-from home! The modern kitchen has what's generally needed to prepare, cook and store food, but if there's an additional appliance you like to use, we're happy to lend it. The furnishings are contemporary, and we're told that the bed and bath linens are especially comfy. Washer and dryer are on property. Store your golf clubs, bike or surf/paddle board in the secure garage. Beach chairs, towels and umbrella are provided, and there is an outdoor shower to wash off sand. Off-street driveway parking spot is included.
The studio is located above our detached garage. You access it by entering our shared, enclosed courtyard, then have one flight of stairs to your front door and private deck. Motion detector lights illuminate your way after dark.
To help you plan and pack, when you book your stay we'll send you a digital copy of our Welcome Guide which has detailed information about: - what's in the apartment - where to get what you need nearby; there are dozens of restaurants, groceries, shops and services - our area
Thinking about a long stay? Save 20% by booking your dates with these tips in mind: - We offer a 10% discount for stays of 4 or more weeks. - Like many cities, San Diego has a short stay Transient Occupancy Tax (10.5 %) which by law Vrbo must add to stays less than one month. Stays of more than a month are exempt from the tax.
Although our setting is generally very tranquil, there are noises out of our control that we would like you to be aware of. Trains occasionally traverse the Peñasquitos Lagoon valley and sometimes aircraft from MiraMar Airbase stray from their normal flight path. All these occurrences are commonplace in coastal Del Mar; we hope they won't impact your stay with us.
Whether you're looking for a beautiful spot to work remotely, a place to call home while you explore San Diego, or just stay put and relax, we look forward to hosting you. Feel free to message us with any questions.

The hosts were amazing! They were very kind and offered us fresh lemons and other fresh from their garden. They also let us use a state beach parking pass which made parking at the beaches and hiking trails quick and easy. Would highly recommend staying here.
Had a thoroughly lovely time! The owners are so gracious and welcoming and will give you your privacy too! All the amenities were there, and even little extras you wouldn’t expect - which made for a comfortable stay. Wonderful location right close to Torrey Pines State Beach!Will definitely stay here again - loved it!
We loved having two outdoor spaces. We loved having a gas fire pit and the furniture outside. Certainly enough room for two people. The kitchen was extremely well equipped. The restaurant that is just across the street is superb. The location really can’t be beat. Overlooking Torrey Pines is very nice and seeing the trains go by added a nice vibe. There is no noise from the trains as they’re far enough away. The hostess was very good and went above and beyond to ensure that we had all the small appliances, we hoped to have.
We have just had an amazing week in Carol & Paul’s place- it was spotless and had everything we needed. Location was brilliant- close to beach and restaurants. We especially enjoyed the outdoor space to relax and we will definitely be back
Well appointed studio with a beautiful view was a nice place to call home for the week with an added bonus of being able to walk a few blocks to get a great cup of coffee on the way to the beach. We enjoyed our stay and the hospitality was great.
Being her is like being at home. The cutest place with generous attentive hosts. Everything you might need for your stay is there. We absolutely love it !
We booked this as a long Memorial Day weekend. The location was great, the accommodations were nice and VERY WELL appointed. The host was excellent!! We would stay here again.
Loved this place so much! It was the perfect location and had everything I needed for an amazing stay! The owners are Soooo nice, helpful and accommodating!!! They make it a much better experience!! It’s centrally located and freeway access is easy!
We had a wonderful stay at the flat. The space is immaculately curated, and the hosts are wonderful. Very much enjoyed the view and the location close to the ocean. we would love to come back! Highly recommended!
We found this to be the best and most thoughtfully managed property we have seen. Carol excels in all aspects of hosting from tasteful and thoughtful furnishings to attentive and caring communication. The space is attractive and comfortable, and we would definitely recommend it to anyone.
Hands down the nicest, most hospitable and generous hosts we’ve ever encountered. Amazing views of the marsh and Torrey Pines from the balcony and a 5 min walk to the beach. Apartment was very well equipped. Quaint neighborhood of West Del Mar was most enjoyable too … enjoyed that scene. Highly, highly recommend this place!
Lovely, well-equipped apartment in a conenient location. Hosts Phil & Carol were great!
