Great Group Retreat! Hacienda Decor, Spacious Floor Plan, Private Backyard

Location was great; just a few blocks from the beach and a short drive to the outlets.Plenty of space to enjoy a family meal outside or movie night indoors.Thoughtful appointments such as oscillating fans and a well stocked kitchen and everything needed to enjoy a fun beach day.

My family and I stayed here for a few days recently and have no complaints. It was a very spacious house for us, beds comfy, kitchen useable, decent sized yard for kids and a dog. We loved the cornhole set. The walk to the beach was very doable, although we'd drive down early, claim a spot (they fill fast) so we wouldn't have to drag a bunch of stuff, then walk back and forth. The house came very well stocked for the beach... multiple boogie boards, chairs, umbrellas, towels. The train noise didn't bother me at all, but my kids didn't love it. But it wasn't enough to keep anyone up at night. Another plus, is that its really close to the strawberry farm. Also the AC was very appreciated. Only minor complaint is the fountain in the little atrium was a tad noisy for me at night (it can be unplugged and replugged in day). Although its a nice touch, to me that atrium area felt like wasted space for the owner, it could easily be turned into another bedroom.But we'd definitely stay here again!

Great location in Carlsbad. Walking distance to the beach and short car ride to Carlsbad Village and walking trails. The house has everything you need with a huge backyard which is a bonus!

Overall the house was extremely comfortable, well equipped and satisfied our needs for a short stay. It was easy off the freeway and in close proximity to all our needs. My friend and I appreciated having separate spaces during our stay and my dogs loved having the enclosed yard to run in! The neighborhood was very quiet and seemed safe which was important to us. Communication with the host was very good and replies were prompt. We had trouble getting into the lockbox initially and the host talked us thru it. there is a marshy area (common in this area) near the backyard so be sure to take your mosquito repellant!

Just lovely!
