Wow! Gorgeous home + guesthouse + pool + view!
Christine’s place was absolutely perfect for our family getaway! It’s conveniently located right next to Legoland, making it ideal for my niece and nephew. We had a group of 6 adults and 2 kids, and there was more than enough space for everyone to feel comfortable. The pool was a big hit, and we were provided with plenty of towels, toys, and other thoughtful amenities that made our stay so enjoyable. Thank you so much, Christine—we’ll definitely be back!

Lake Sanctuary by Trails - AC & EV
Fantastic and peaceful getaway. The host was incredibly helpful and responsive at all times....Highly recommend, thank you so much, Hang

Stunning Views! Perfect for 8 on Private Beach
This beach house is everything and more. You won’t want to leave! We came out to celebrate my birthday and just relax for the holiday with local family. We had a great time. It was a bit chilly so we didn’t get to use the backyard as much as we would’ve liked but sitting in the living room with the door open and listening to the waves was priceless. Heather was so friendly and easy to communicate with. We had everything we needed. Dolphin and surfer watching every day and we even saw a whale. We will definitely be back!!! One tip: try to have a compact car so you can park in the driveway spot. Although, we never had trouble with street parking. My hiccup was the street sweep is early am and I was scared to get a ticket! Easy to work around though and well worth it for the location.

Cozy+Spacious+Family-Friendly~by all attractions!
We stayed for 5 nights. Traveled with our 3 kids (4 year old & 2 year olds) This place had everything we needed to stay comfortably and feel @ home from kids books, kids toys, kids plates/utensils to a full kitchen & comfortable bedrooms with sound machines!! The backyard is relaxing. Host did a great job of checking in with us, even instacarted batteries when we needed them! It is a true 15 minute drive to all attractions. It’s tucked away from all the hustle & bustle. Our kids can’t wait to come back and we can’t wait either! Thank you for a comfortable stay.

Dulei was a great host. Her place was clean, neat and equipped with basic needs. The nespresso machine was awesome. My toddler loved the books. Dulei was a great communicator. She was responsive and always positive and pleasant in her messages. The location was also great. It was a very nice neighborhood and safe place to stay. It was a great place for families. Thank you Dulei! You are awesome.

Coastal Carlsbad 5 Bedroom Getaway
One of the greatest things that happened was their response when I asked if they had a baby gate for the stairs. We were traveling with a 15 month old and he was really wanting to climb the stairs. I contacted Harcourt and asked if there was a baby gate. They stated there was not but they would try to find one. Within 4 hours they had one delivered to our rental. Now that is excellent customer service!!!

Ridgeview Oasis | Free Parking, Laundry, Grill
As soon as we arrived felt right at home. It was a great stay would definitely recommend and stay there again.

Luxurious Lakeview Retreat at Lake Hodges, RB
Katherine was a wonderful host, and the property was a fantastic place to stay while our kitchen was being remodeled. The pool is amazing, the view is peaceful and lovely. Katherine was always responsive and helpful whenever we needed anything or had questions. We do know the area, so we didn't need to do any exploring, but we loved the easy access to the freeway to go south to beautiful San Diego or west to the beach. Lots of restaurants and shopping nearby and the neighborhood was great to walk with our dog. The house was spotless when we arrived and had all the amenities we needed to function as a family. Plenty of linens, pool towels, and bedrooms to spread out and feel comfortable. The pool and slide are the highlight of staying here for sure!

We loved Alexandra’s home — a super spacious apartment home above her family’s French cafe. Incredible location. Walkable to all of our favorite restaurants and coffee shops. Alexandra was a gracious host and wonderfully communicative. Recommend this home if you’re looking to stay in Leucadia and love a walkable lifestyle. Also super close to the beach!
