Incredible Home - Photos Don't Do It Justice!

We had an amazing stay at The Boat House (S1295) at Sunset Cliffs. The home was incredibly spacious, with plenty of room for our group of 13 to spread out comfortably without ever feeling crowded. The layout worked really well for a larger group, and the bedrooms were roomy and comfortable. The backyard/frontyard (with the grass) was a highlight - absolutely amazing and perfect for relaxing and spending time together. Communication was easy from start to finish, and the hosts were very responsive whenever we had questions. Overall, this was a fantastic stay and we would absolutely recommend it. 10/10 experience!

The best Sunset we have ever seen!

Beautiful home with a brilliant Sunset View! Could have not asked for a more clean, spacious, stylish home to stay with our family. Multiple bedrooms with individual bathrooms was great to have. We truly enjoyed the front porch fire pit sunsets. Magical. Walking distance from beach and our course the Cliffs. The home had everything we needed and then some. It made our trip from New York to San Diego one to remember!

Great Stay

House was absolutely wonderful and perfect for our family vacation! We loved the location, plenty of available parking, multiple entertainment spaces that were enjoyable for all ages. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed to cook multiple meals. Check-in and out were easy and host was very accommodating. I only noted two slight annoyances I would remedy but these were in no way major issues.. Bathrooms need hooks on the walls and in the showers. Multiple daily hot tub trips and beach trips but nowhere to hang up swimsuits and towels. One towel rod per bathroom is not enough for a house that sleeps 14. Shower pressure in the upstairs showers was miserable. Downstairs had an adjustable shower head and that shower was glorious! Would recommend switching out shower heads.
