This hideaway in Cardiff was perfect for our summer vacation. We enjoyed the close proximity to great beaches and 30 minute drive to various San Diego attractions. It was quiet - we didn't hear the homeowners at all, unlike other properties where we've stayed in a downstairs and awoke to footsteps above us - not here! It's in a nice area surrounded by gated communities & is in a highly walkable neighborhood. It was a great stay.

Really quiet neighborhood, comfy bed and clean and modern design. Also really loved the courtyard for my kids to play in while the lil one napped. Having the beach blanket, gear and towels were a big plus as well. Really enjoyed our stay.

Even with last minute booking, Jen made the check in convenient, which we were appreciative for. Clean, comfortable, a short drive to town and the beach and quieter than the beach too. Really nice spot.

Breeder’s Cup trip

Loved the location. We attended The Breeder’s Cup for 2 days at Del Mar and it was so easy driving to and from the races. Also, short drive to beaches and lots of restaurants. Very nice flat in a very nice neighborhood.

We used to live in the area, and came back to visit family and friends. The location is simply wonderful. Quiet neighborhood, and very close to anything and everything. The unit was perfect for my husband and myself. Full kitchen, streaming tv options, strong shower and of course the washer/dryer in the unit was a big plus. Run don't walk to book this unit!!!!

Comfortable spot

This apartment had everything we needed for the week! It was a short driving distance to beaches, restaurants and shopping. For us it was within walking distance of family. It was easy to communicate with the hosts when necessary. We hope to return to this same place in the future.
