Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Encinitas

What a wonderful Airbnb experience! The bungalow was very comfortable and beautifully decorated. We especially loved taking advantage of the outdoor amenities, including the cold plunge, sauna and hot tub. The outdoor space was perfectly tranquil. Our daughter and dog loved playing in the yard. The proximity to downtown Carlsbad was a huge plus. We were very happy with our stay!

Wow - what an incredible treat to be able to stay in Lynn’s wonderful home. Lynn and her family could not have been more welcoming, hospitable, or friendly. We were so lucky to stay in this cottage by the sea, and are already planning our next trip back. Thank you, Lynn, Tyler, and Kitt!

Jason upgraded his place really well. Very clean, spacious and quiet. Has all the basic needs. tons of towels, blankets, pillows Nice outdoor patio.... 4 minutes to the beaches, grocery store, and places to eat, and freeway. Parking on the street and on the property. The street parking is tight, but manageable. Wishing Jason all the best. john.

Great stay! Walking distance from Seaside market, Cardiff beach, and everything else we needed for the weekend. Would definitely stay here again

We initially planned to stay in Leucadia for a week but decided to extend our stay for a full second week because we loved this place so much. The location is absolutely perfect. We walked to the Beacons beach to surf every day and had our pick of all the best restaurants on the 101 (highly recommend Birdseye Kitchen). The house itself is cozy and surprisingly private for a place on the 101. It helped to have laundry on site and Chris was responsive throughout our visit. The house isn't as well stocked as a lot of air bnbs (no wine glasses, coffee, ice cube trays, etc.) but you will probably want to eat out most of your stay anyway because there are so many great places within walking distance. We definitely plan to come back and highly recommend this charming little nook in Leucadia! Excellent cost for value.

This place is SUCH a gem and I can't say enough good things. When I travel I love to feel like a local, immerse myself into the community and really get a sense of where I'm visiting. This beautiful little cottage with all of it's character and charm allowed me to do just that. The neighbors are so kind and welcoming, the home was pristine and has all the amenities as described, the view took my breath away literally - so amazing. Within walking distance of restaurants, entertainment, the beach. Jason and Nicole were so responsive and went out of their way to provide a wide variety of recommendations in the area. I can't wait to visit again!

Julie’s Haven House suited us just fine for our 2 week stay. Good location to get to San Diego and other county locations. It is well appointed with many special touches. We really appreciated the Nespresso, the well stocked pantry and laundry supplies. On top of all that Julie was super responsive and flexible when we adjusted our stay dates.

We had a wonderful girls weekend in this beautiful space. The view is unbeatable. Great location, spacious, thoughtful details throughout. An excellent vacation space!

It is a perfect place if you're looking to make a quick trip to Oceanside. We only stayed for a night and half a day, but it was perfect for what we needed, a place to sleep and quick access to downtown to attend celebrations with friends. Betsy was super communicative and friendly, no issues whatsoever.

JB and Ana were great hosts and were wonderfully accommodating. This was a great private room in a very convenient location. I was definitely satisfied with my experience, especially the ease of check-in/out.

Loved our getaway. Perfect location. Cottage is perfect size. Would definitely book again!

Lisa was an excellent host. She thought of everything and the small details like an extra toothbrush, lots of blankets and beach towels. So many things. The one that stood out the most was that a last minute add in of my daughter's to my visit and she made up the couch bed so we were all set with places to sleep when we arrived. We'll done Lisa.

We loved our stay at this home! Very comfortable for two couples and an infant. Walkable to the beach, we watched a beautiful sunset minutes from the home. Nice breakfast options nearby and lots of children’s toys/activities. Host was responsive and helpful. Would rent again.

Great stay. As advertised. The hosts were awesome and extremely responsive. Will book again if available when back to visit our son.

Amazing stay start to finish and would highly recommend to anyone. Noah and Rena are helpful and communicative; their experience as hosts is immediately apparent as they make everything easy for their guests. The place was clean, comfortable, easily accessible, has parking, great amenities and all at a great price.

Condo was easy to find, instructions were clear and simple to get it. Condo itself was clean and felt right at home. It's in a great location walking distance to Omni La Costa resort which has great food and drinks and a great golf course. Would definitely book again the next time I'm in San Diego.

I couldn’t have chosen a better place to visit my son, who is currently serving in the Marines. We were both able to rest deeply in a big, soft, comfortable bed something we hadn’t shared in a long time. The house had everything we needed; if I needed something from the kitchen, it was there. Nothing was missing. I was able to cook for him, we shared a beach day, and for a few days, it felt like we were home again. It was a safe, cozy, and truly special place. I’m deeply grateful for this week and for the joy of spending it with my son. 5 stars without a doubt! I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a comfortable, safe stay full of heart.

Nicholas’s apartment was the perfect find for my Southwrn California getaway. The apartment was spacious, clean and very comfortable, and the view of the ocean from the pool was just what I had hoped for! A perfect spot to relax during the day and watch the sunset in the evening. Great restaurants and shops in walking distance, free parking, gracious staff - all around perfect!

Great place, easy walk to beach or downtown. Ryan’s place is very well stocked with everything you could need. We had a great time!! There was even a Christmas tree up (we were there over Christmas) which made it feel very homey. I highly recommend this Airbnb!

A wonderful stay. Cozy spot with excellent amenities. Easy in and out. Covered parking.

A wonderful condo in the Omi resort.Has everything you need , fully stocked .great views out of the 2 sliders .A Walkable area in the resort and a lagoon and beaches not faraway. I enjoyed the walks in the resort and the restaurant.

We really enjoyed staying at Robyn’s condo! It is in a nice spot close to the beach and there is a beautiful view from the balcony. It was great to be able to access the hot tub and pool, we had it to ourselves both nights! Robyn was very responsive and helpful, we definitely recommend staying here.

The best Airbnb she got everything we needed and more, plenty of beds and bedding for 4 people, kitchen got everything including condiments, dish soap etc if you ever need it, plenty of towels and beach towels, beach chairs, bathroom was with everything you need shampoo conditioner gel sunscreen etc I did not brought kids but I have also seen lots of things for kids. I did enjoy having a lot of extra things I never seen other places. The condo premises is absolutely beautiful we loved it . Thank you so much we are coming back soon

Place was exactly what we wanted...very close to the beach, primarily. The space itself was homey, well stocked and clearly thoughtful. Pam clearly has an artistic flair. It was very comfortable, including the bed! Would definitely come back. Carlsbad is a cute little town and easy access from LA.
