Great facilities in gated community

This property has access to the beach (down steep wooden steps), tennis/pickleball courts and a pool. The property is spacious with two en suite bedrooms, and two other bedrooms and a large living area with lots of seating and tables etc. The kitchen is generally well equipped, though guests provide their own consumables such as toilet roll etc. We had a great time at the property for a family trip in November, the place is well kept and you can easily walk to play tennis or go to the pool at the shared facilities of the gated community. The only minor downsides, if you would call them that, are that the beach is rocky and narrow depending on the tide (but other sandy beaches are a 10 min drive, or possibly even a walk) and that the place isn't super walkable into a town, again you have to drive about 10 mins for that to Encintas or Carlsbad, though there are a few scattered places to walk to nearby e.g. 7-11, donuts, Mexican place. Note that the property doesn't have a water view, but the deck is by a very quiet dead end street and feels very calm and peaceful. We also saw dolphins in November when we did walk the 5 mins to the ocean overlook within the community. At that time of year one of the pools was closed, but the other was open and heated. Overall, we loved our stay here and would definitely return, strongly recommended. The garage also has a lot of useful beach equipment. Our group was an extended family of 6 adults and 2 kids and it was just about perfect.

Overall a great place

This was a kids and parents and grandparents family vacation. The condo, which is in a gated neighborhood, was nice and spacious and well equipped, and it's near Legoland. We've stayed at other condos in this neighborhood before and like this one, they are always nice. It's a very short walk to the the neighborhood's private beach but note that the beach seems to have lost its sand since we were last there, and now it's incredibly rocky. I see that other reviewers have commented on this, too, That would not dissuade us from staying there again, but if want a sandy beach you'll need to go to Moonlight Beach, which is just a few minutes drive away.

Loved it!

A VERY well-appointed home with every utensil we could need for a long Thanksgiving weekend plus! Comfortable rooms and plenty to do. Only quibble was that the property's beach is barely usable. Erosion has hit the coast hard and the sandy beach is mostly gone. At a super low tide about 3 feet of wet sand appeared, otherwise it's all rocks. Since the beach was the main point of booking this property, it was disappointing, but the pools were lovely and other beaches are a short drive away.

Awesome home and location

We are regular visitors to Encinitas and loved this home. It is spacious and comfortable with a great location. We could walk to the bluff and down to the water or walk to pick up food. Close to everything! HOA Pools are great too. During COVID, there is a reservation system and every other day usage so hopefully the pool is back to normal when we return. Would definitely stay here again.

Bright, sunny condo for a family vacation

The condo was great - roomy, clean, well stocked with lots of beach toys and chairs, surf and boogie boards. Location was convenient - close to lots of restaurants and grocery stores. The complex had great pools and a jacuzzi, plenty of parking too. My only note is that the living room and kitchen is on the second floor, which I did not anticipate. I knew the condo had two floors from the description of the bedrooms but didn’t realize this meant the living space was on the second floor. We had a two year old with us and it ended up working out fine, but may be important to note for some. They do have a baby gate you can use but we didn’t want to have it at the top of the stairs where everyone would have to climb over it since it was not the type that easily opens. Like I said though, it ended up being fine.

Bueatiful vacation home in laid back Leucadia

The property was bright, sunny, clean, quiet, comfortable and tastefully decorated. The beds and pillows were comfortable. The upstairs master waterfall shower was amazing. The kitchen was large and there were plenty of comfortable places to sit and relax. Plenty of beach toys for all ages. The beach and pools were very nice. There was an issue with the fridge, and management and the owner worked hard to fix the situation quickly and remedy the inconvenience fairly. There was a discrepancy in the stated check in time. It was a little far from the family we were visiting, which would be my only hesitation renting there again. We had a wonderful stay, and this is probably the best vacation rental I have ever stayed at. I would definitely recommend this property to a friend.
