Great location, good vibes in the house.
This property has a fantastic location (20 minutes walk from a bunch of great restaurants and 2 minute amble to the beach). Wonderful outdoor and indoor spaces. It's in need of a touch up, but given location and space, it is a great value for the money.

Wonderful location, great vibes and good management..
We rented this house for the month of February and liked it so much we are renting again for the month of April. The location is great, easy access to downtown Del Mar or Solana Beach. The house itself is welcoming, with plenty of great light, ocean breezes and well appointed in terms of cookware, etc.
Drift Vacation Homes was a great agent, very responsive to the few issues we had while there.
Highly recommend renting here.
