Bungalow w Hot Tub-Sauna-Cold Plunge
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!

Cardiff Beach Cottage Ocean View
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!

Cardiff Beach House.
Great place to find peace and walk to the beach in a place that seems like you’d have to drive. Turns out you can walk straight to the beach with your board. Jason was insanely chill and helpful. He was just walking his dog and took me on a great walk, guiding me on how to get straight to my favorite beach and back. Never had a host who gladly helped me like that. Comfy bed and pillows too.

Coastal Paradise - Luxury Spacious Resort Living!
Great stay! Walking distance from Seaside market, Cardiff beach, and everything else we needed for the weekend. Would definitely stay here again

Entire Beach Bungalow | Private Oasis West of 101
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.

Bluffside BnB • 31 day+
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!

Beach View Bungalow with Stunning, Panoramic Views
The beach view bungalow was amazing! The interior design was very beautiful and fit perfect with the beach vibe. Pantry was stocked full of many helpful items. Kitchen had all the items to make cooking a breeze. Lovely walking path right across the street. Grandkids loved the beach toys, chairs etc. Gina was very communicative and helpful. Wonderful stay!

Ocean Breeze with ease, near Carlsbad Village
Very nice and cute house to stay in, I would aboslutely recommend! The kitchen is nicely stocked, the place was clean, and the couch and bed were comfy. You can occasionally hear the upstairs neighbors walking when in the bedroom, but you cannot hear them from the rest of the house. The house felt very spacious as well.

Anna’s modern & private San Diego guest studio!
Anna was a phenomenal host for my short stay in San Diego. She was very responsive and kind! Her home was nice and quaint with all the items of everything you may have at home (iron, kitchenware, toiletries etc.) I would definitely stay again when I come back to visit San Diego!

Studio - beach, breweries, transport: 15 min walk
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.

Private Studio close by North Park
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.

Small Beach Studio (near everything)
This place is all about location. I came for a work trip so really just needed a place to sleep.. however it’s very comfortable and you won’t feel crowded at all if you’re one person. Martha is very attentive and kind. You can walk to amazing coffee, restaurants and the beach in 5 min easily and the neighborhood is very quiet. I would for sure stay there again!

Cardiff by the Sea, CA "Always on Beach Time!"
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.

Cardiff Walk to Everything! Beach Retreat + Bikes
Great stay. As advertised. The hosts were awesome and extremely responsive. Will book again if available when back to visit our son.

Cardiff-by-the-Sea Walking District
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.

Modern Vista Getaway | Prime Downtown Location
Alan & Pam were so amazing from the start. They also provided a guide on their favorite eats around Vista and the place was perfect. I loved the idea of having a gated parking lot, it made my stay more enjoyable knowing that my vehicle was going to be safe at night. The place was spotless and it felt like home. Definitely would come back here to stay when we come back down to San Diego!

Light and Bright Carlsbad Beach!!
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.

1 Bedroom Condo at Wave Crest Resort
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!

Pipes Ocean Front Beach Rental
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!

Luxury Oceanfront Condo with Unbelievable Views
The stay was amazing exactly described views ! Very convenient for the location I will definitely be stay again !

Robyns Resort Nest & Spa Wash/Dryer
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.

Lovely, 1 bedroom Condo, Ocean & Pool View-
This is our second year staying at Susan’s condo and it’s so great for a small family. Amazing location, all amenities needed, simple check in and check out. We love it here.
