The Space: At the gorgeous 3-bedroom home of Beachfront Sunset parked along the pristine beaches this area is well-known for, all your needs are sure to be met from the luxurious accommodations, picturesque outdoor surroundings, and everything in between.

Plan a day away from the home at Stonesteps or Moonlight State beaches, renowned for their excellent surf breaks and family-friendly ambiance. Catch some waves, build a few sandcastles, and lose yourself in the pages of a great book while you sip on a refreshing beverage. Dive into the town’s vibrant art, dining, and shopping scene by browsing the shops and stops along historic Highway 101 offering everything from art installations to designer fashion and diverse eateries. As the sun sets over the Pacific, the sky transforms into a canvas of vibrant hues best viewed back on the home’s balcony, enjoying a nightcap as you plan out the next day’s activities.
Inside the home, breezy, open spaces envelop you in coastal comfort, the soothing neutral tones providing the perfect ambiance for relaxation and connectivity. Sink into plush sofa seating in the living room while you stream all your favorite shows and movies on the mounted smart TV.

Speaking of meals, the modern kitchen is fully equipped for home cooking, showcasing stainless steel appliances, glossy stone countertops, and natural wood cabinetry stocked with all the comforts of home.

Incredible oceanfront views, close to great restaurants and beach. There was an interior ant problem upstairs and downstairs that dampened our overall experience.

Potential is there for a tremendous property worthy of the price. As is, you're paying for a 3 1/2 star place in an incredible location.Fixable issues that keep it from being amazing (below).POSITIVES:Excellent location!Epic view; Super close to shops/eats on 101; Beaches- 5 min walk to Beacon's, 10 to StoneSteps, 20 to Moonlight/downtown Encinitas (Would be helpful to have these details in listing)Comfortable furnishings, linens & kitchenGood beach gear - Towels, surf & boogie boards, chairsMgmt Co was very responsiveFYI - there appears to be an EV-capable plug in the garage (it's not listed, so I didn't bring my cable)ISSUES:Master bedroom needs work. Screen door has unsightly holes & barely budges when trying to open;Shutters are very difficult to close, and one is broken off;Lamps are faulty;Cosmetic issues like these are unexpected for a property in this price pointListing does not mention shared wall with neighbor - do not anticipate privacy on the patioWe had ants in master bath and near wet bar - Mgmt is aware & hopefully addressingCoffee maker leaked water on kitchen counter - to their credit, Mgmt quickly replaced via amazonShort on kitchen basics - utensils/cookware need updating, more hand towelsCould not access DirecTV - no instructionsFrustrating Check in - additional online registration required after reserving & paying, which I completed but evidently it didn't get to them, so we were delayed a half hour dealing with it

Incredible location
We couldn’t have asked for a better location. We weren’t far from any of the attractions we were visiting and restaurants were close by too. We loved the quiet street it is located on too. It is a one way street active with walkers and joggers. Then there is the ocean view! We enjoyed an incredible sunset each night while listening to the soothing sound of the crashing waves. Check in was flawless and the property managers were very helpful and just the right amount of attentive.

Incredible vacation spot
Stayed for a few nights during our son's travel hockey tournament, and this place was everything we could have asked for and more. Clean and spacious, with absolutely gorgeous views of the ocean. We're already hoping his team goes back to San Diego next season so we can stay here again!
