Beautiful spot
This beautiful home is perfectly designed as a vacation stay, and feels even larger and more lovely than the photos show. The furniture is comfortable, the rooms are private, the views of the ocean, sunrise, and sunset are fantastic, and the kitchen is well-stocked (we actually were able to bake cookies, and cook some nice dinners here). Though the weather didn't encourage swimming, there is plenty of beach gear provided; we did enjoy the indoor games and puzzles provided. Everything about this place feels generous, comfortable, and beautiful. And Cardiff itself is wonderfully walkable -- to restaurants, Seaside Market, parks, tennis court, shopping, and the beach. Definitely hope to come back!

Excellent property, prime location.
I stayed here for four nights in October and had a great experience. I was in town on business, so unfortunately didn’t spend all that much time at the property, but it was clean, well-appointed and in a fantastic location. I’ve been coming to the Cardiff/Del Mar/Solana Beach area every October for work the last seven years and this has been one of my favorite properties I’ve stayed at.
Communication with the host property company was very consistent and positive and they were very responsive. Would highly recommend.

Amazing home!
We had an amazing staycation here after being displaced due to flooding in our own home. Management had the place ready for us quickly for our last minute booking. The layout is amazing, the location is perfect, the views are to die-for and the house was incredibly well appointed with all we needed to cook, etc. Highly recommend this property and management group, it was such a welcome relief to the chaos we’ve been dealing with the last 2 weeks!
