You were a delight to have stay with us. So glad you enjoyed yourself and we’re close to family. Hope to see you again in the future soon. Travel safe.

Beau was great, very helpful. Everything was very clean, and bed was comfortable. Bathroom remodel was very nice. We were not used to small spaces, so arranging suitcases took a bit of effort. Most negative for us was the lack of air conditioning.

Glad you enjoyed your stay, it was a pleasure having you. We are fortunate here by opening the slider to the balcony and the window in the sleeping area. We get a wonderful ocean breeze. The weather in Cardiff is usually so beautiful that air-conditioning is not needed.
Hope you took one of our cards, we would love to have you as a guest again.

I can’t say enough about my stay! It’s like staying in your own home. Everything you need has been thought of. It’s clean, it’s quiet, it’s down right adorable and it beats a hotel any day! I didn’t want to leave. You can’t ask for more. It’s central. If there’s something you wanna do to the north it’s not far and if you wanna head south it’s not far. But when you come back, you’re away from the major hustle and bustle. I will be staying here again!

The stay was great! I planned this little getaway as a birthday trip for my boyfriend and a celebrating my recent total knee replacement. We enjoyed our stay and saved as a favorite to book again.

The space was remarkable. Well-appointed kitchen, spacious bathroom. Sweet balcony on which to see sunsets. Our hosts were accommodating. We’d give it more than 5 stars if that were possible.
It was so comfortable for my husband and myself. I'm a cook and the kitchen was a great set up. The bed was perfect, just right for a great night of sleep.
This was our second stay here and it was just at wonderful as the first. Excellent location and convenient to all the things we like to do in Cardiff and Encinitas. The accommodations are perfect and the hosts very friendly.
Would stay again in a heartbeat! Amazing communication, and helpfulness, and details. Perfect space above a garage looking out over the ocean a mile in the distance, Everything I had wanted in a solo retreat.

Hi Jane, thank you for. We appreciate your great review and hope you will consider revisiting us.

Beautiful and very thoughtfully designed studio. The interior felt comfortable even with two kids and the windows with ocean views were lovely. The hosts were very responsive and accommodating to our unexpectedly shifting travel plans. Would definitely stay there again!
We really enjoyed our stay and highly recommend it. Everyone couldn’t have been more accommodating. We will be back in the future.

About the host
Hosted by Judy and Beau
I have lived in Cardiff all my life. I have traveled and vacationed in many places in the US and the world but I never found any where I'd rather be than here. My children are 3rd generation attending the same elementary school that I did and my mother before me. I couldn't imagine living any where else.
Why they chose this property
My mom purchased the home in the late eighties and it was updated a few years after. It wasn't until 2007 that I did a complete remodel adding the second story and the studio. My family has lived in Cardiff for almost 70 years and building this beautiful home for my mom was something I wanted to do for her. Both of us enjoy living here because of relaxing life style and the small community feel, not to mention the year round great whether.
What makes this property unique
The studio is unique because it is completely private. You have your own private entrance and ocean view balcony, full bath and large kitchen. It is less than a 5 minute drive to restaurants, beaches, golf and shopping. The parking place and the private entrance are on the north side of the drive way, making it easy to unpack and transport your luggage.
