Luxury Ocean View Beach Rental 5

4.88 out of 5 average rating, 162 reviews2 months ago

This was my first Air BnB so not sure what to expect but this is a great place to stay in Carlsbad! Super close to the beach and walkable to the village (about 1/2 mile). Quiet with comfy beds. Unit was very clean and had plenty of towels and kitchen supplies. We stayed in Unit 5 which is in the middle on the upper floor- we did have a view of the beach from the front door/deck. The only thing that wasn't amazing was the pullout sofa bed. The mattress is a piece of foam- not so much a mattress. It would be fine for a child, but not the best for an adult, so just know that if you were planning on using the pullout for adult sleeping.

This is such a beautiful home, I already want to go back! The walk to the beach was easy and so close. The privacy of the outdoor seating area was really nice. Kitchen was clean and spotless and the beds were incredibly comfortable! The water pressure in the showers wasn’t very strong, but everything else was perfect. Would absolutely stay again! Oh, and the hosts were very responsive throughout the stay when I had any questions!

Writers' Cottage - AC,Pets OK, Close to everything

4.97 out of 5 average rating, 431 reviews4 days ago

Kamilo was super kind, accommodating, and attentive. This little cottage was stocked with all the things we could ever possibly need. The garden path to the cottage and backyard were adorable! We brought our dog and she enjoyed the backyard as well. They even had a bottle of wine waiting on the table as well as some fruit grown by them. It was my first time ever trying a loquat!! The neighborhood was quiet, cute, and safe. We took our dog out for walks in the morning with no worries. The beach is also a quick drive. Everything was great and I would definitely come again.

Kids Paradise San Diego - Funhouse

4.96 out of 5 average rating, 199 reviews2 months ago

If you're currently looking for a place to stay in the San Diego area and have kids, stop looking. This is the place to stay! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Carrie's property. Kids Paradise was ideal for our young ones, and thanks to Carrie’s thoughtful preparations, we had everything we needed for a comfortable experience. This made it possible for our children to have a wonderful vacation, while also allowing us parents to relax. I highly recommend this accommodation for families with children of all ages. We look forward to the possibility of staying at one of her other properties in the future.

Comfortable and Spacious PB Townhouse

4.9 out of 5 average rating, 172 reviews3 weeks ago

I stayed at Kam's place with 5 other adults and there was plenty of space for all of us. Great ratio of private indoor and outdoor spaces. Everything was neat and tidy. Check in was super easy. It was nice to have a private parking spot, but also street parking was an option. The place is a 25 minute walk to lots of nice shops and the ocean. There is a Trader Joe's a hop-skip away. I would book again with a group in the future.

Pippi's Paradise cottage 1 block to the beach w/AC

4.93 out of 5 average rating, 152 reviews1 month ago

I loved this cottage, it’s location, and our experience. The exterior: private, behind a wooden fence steps away from the sidewalk, with the cutest succulent garden with some tasteful décor. The interior: meticulously curated vintage and retro-style pieces, always something to look at, I appreciate that it wasn’t an IKEA bulk order but a lot of love and care and personality. And it’s SO clean and doesn’t feel cluttered at all! I loved the round yellow bathroom tile, the kitchen sink, the leather chair and ottoman in the living room. So many gems all around. Katrina was a gem herself!!! My toddler got sick (yuck) in bed the first night, and K came to our rescue the next morning with new linens, completely kindhearted and understanding. Related- the free laundry was a godsend to have with a kid, and to simply not have to pack a ton! And the beach gear, stocked supplies in the cabinets, they thought of everything! ❤️

We had a wonderful stay at James’s place! From the beginning, James was a very responsible and responsive host. We had a few requests during our stay, and he addressed them promptly and kindly, which made our experience even smoother. The house itself was clean, well-maintained, and fully equipped with everything we needed. It truly felt like a home away from home for our family. The attention to detail and the cozy ambiance made our trip even more enjoyable. Thank you, James, for your warm hospitality. We really appreciate the care you put into making our stay comfortable. Looking forward to staying at your place again in the future!

Amazing place to stay. Spotless, looked exactly like the pictures and the views of the bay was so nice. The location was perfect. Went with my wife and our two children. Everything was very close to us. We went to the zoo, Little Italy, Belmont Park and even I took a run around the bay. Highly recommended this place to stay.
