Perfect location for surfing at Grandview Beach, and close to all Leucadia has to offer. The house has big rooms and a nice kitchen. The backyard is very enjoyable, great for the dog and family to hang out. Good parking. Great spot for a family vacation.

This was such a wonderful way for us to visit friends and family in Encinitas. The beach house was clean, comfortable, roomy, and had all the amenities you could need for beach fun and backyard get-togethers! We really enjoyed our time in Leucadia. Will definitely be coming back to Encinitas AND this house.

Perfect spot for a California coast experience. It’s quiet and we enjoyed the private backyard.

Ideal spot for our family of five. We especially appreciated the private backyard for covid-friendly outdoor visits with friends, and the short walk to the beach for the sunset or to walk/run along the shore.
