Welcome to The Sanctuary, a private hilltop retreat. Stay across our two unique spaces. The Nest Tiny House and The Pool House located on a different levels of this scenic estate with panoramic valley, mountain and ocean views. Enjoy a resort-style pool and spa, expansive decks, outdoor dining, fire pit, lush gardens, and walking paths. Peaceful and secluded, yet close to beaches, dining, and adventure. Perfect for small gatherings, celebrations, or a restorative private escape.
The space
Home #1: The Pool House
1 bd, 1 ba (sleeps 2-4). Queen bed + full-size luxury blow-up mattress (available upon request).
1 parking space a few steps away from the front door (large/oversized vehicles may not fit, and can park in additional parking area at the lower lot).
Living and dining area: couch, reading chair, TV, dining table with four chairs.
Full kitchen: full-size refrigerator with freezer, 2-burner induction stovetop, microwave/convection oven combo, toaster, coffee maker, electric hot water kettle, blender, pots and pans, cooking utensils, silverware, glasses, plastic drink ware (for poolside), coffee, tea, spices, and Carlsbad Alkaline drinking water.
Full bathroom: walk-in shower, vanity, toilet (on septic system), washer and dryer, bath towels and pool towels.
The Pool House has a picturesque view of Fallbrook and Camp Pendleton. It's right next to the pool, spa, and rooftop deck. It's the crown jewel of The Sanctuary and the best accommodation for hosting and entertaining.
Home #2: The Nest Tiny House is a private, stand-alone retreat thoughtfully designed to feel both cozy and expansive. This one-bedroom tiny home features a comfortable living and dining area, large windows, and doors that bring the outdoors in. You can close the space off completely with privacy curtains and blinds or open it up to sweeping views toward the San Gabriel, San Jacinto, and Palomar mountain ranges.
Just steps from the Nest, you’ll have access to the shared pool area with a saltwater pool and spa, surrounded by a travertine pool deck. Above the pool sits the 1,200-square-foot observation deck, furnished with Adirondack chairs, a teak table, and benches. It’s the perfect place for a quiet coffee at sunrise or a drink at sunset—either way, the views don’t disappoint.
As you explore the property, you’ll find gardens and winding orchard pathways. We have over 50 fruit trees of various types, with something always in season. We do our best to leave a taste of the property in your accommodation upon arrival, and you’re welcome to pick more to enjoy during your stay. If you’re curious about what’s ripe or how to pick anything, just ask—we’re happy to help.
The tap water here is perfectly fine for drinking, but as an added touch, we also provide Carlsbad’s naturally alkaline spring water (pH 9.1) for your enjoyment. It’s exceptionally clean, crisp, and refreshing—our favorite, and one we love sharing with guests.

My work: The Sanctuary
Hi, I’m Ian, owner and caretaker of The Sanctuary, a peaceful place where people can disconnect, enjoy nature, and take in the best views in north SD county. When first discovered the beauty of oceanside’s highest hilltop I saw my plan and knew it was my job to acquire and share this special place. Come for a getaway, pool play, the views, the beach, or explore North County San Diego. It’s unforgettable
Perfect place for a family visit on Camp Pendleton, local weddings, relax or base adventure
