The Ultimate Family Vacation Home | Hot Tub | A/C

EricRating, 5 stars1 week ago
This is a great rental for a family. There is plenty of beach equipment as well as equipment for toddlers if needed. Being dog-friendly is a major plus. The house is in a quiet neighborhood which is nice for walking and it is a short drive to restaurants and the beach. We took advantage of the hot tub and the very relaxing back yard.

Gorgeous Ocean Views with A/C!

JeffRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Our recent stay at Michelle’s Airbnb in Leucadia, California, was nothing short of exceptional! From the moment we arrived, it was clear that Michelle has thought of every detail to make her guests feel at home. The property is absolutely beautiful, spotlessly clean, and impeccably maintained, creating an inviting and comfortable atmosphere that rivaled the coziness of our own home. The kitchen was a standout feature, fully stocked with everything needed to whip up almost any meal. From cookware to an impressive array of spices, we had all the tools to enjoy home-cooked dinners, which made our stay even more special. It’s rare to find such a well-equipped kitchen in a vacation rental! The location is perfect for soaking in the local culture. Right on the beach, we loved taking daily walks to explore the vibrant Leucadia community. The highlight, though, was watching the sunset every evening from the living room or deck—pure magic! The views were breathtaking and made every night feel

Bamboo Lake House-Tropical paradise & LOTS OF FUN

HangRating, 5 stars4 days ago
We had such an amazing time. So many activities to do at Kathleen’s. Our kids love the pond, swimming pool, fishing, pickleball, and appreciate all the outdoors amenities. Definitely a gem to visit for families. The home is a little dated. But all the outdoor activities make up for it.

The Tiny Beach House - Coral Tree House

SamiRating, 5 stars4 weeks ago
We absolutely loved our stay here!! Greg checked us in and was super helpful and Michelle was great about checking in and even made us a treat. They were there if we needed them but were also great at giving us privacy and letting us enjoy ourselves. Although we were out and about exploring and wine tasting, it would be a great place to hang out at for the day as well with the pool, hot tub, and hang out places around the property. It was a very calming place to just get up make breakfast and chill before getting going on the day. I will definitely be staying here again when we need a place in the area. Couldn’t recommend this spot enough.

Fletcher Hills - modern 1 BR.Easy, no step access.

DesireeRating, 5 stars3 days ago
This air bnb was the best place we could have stayed in San Diego. It had everything we needed and there were so many thoughtful touches. All I wanted was a Southern California beach vacation and Kristen had all of the gear we needed for that. We went to several beaches during our stay and it was about a 30 minute drive to every beach we went after waiting out morning rush hour traffic. Her backyard was my favorite part of our trip as we love watching sunrises and sunsets and it was so peaceful with great views. There is a lot of natural light in the air bnb as I didn’t understand initially there are solar tube lights throughout the unit which I thought were really cool. The air bnb is in a safe and quiet neighborhood and is a convenient location. The bed itself was very comfortable and we enjoyed being able to cook meals with a full kitchen and be able to do laundry. I would definitely will return when back in San Diego.

Massive 4-Acre Private Getaway With Majestic Views

AmberRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We had an amazing stay at this beautiful home in Vista. Perfect for getting our family together to celebrate a birthday. There were several bedrooms with king size beds, large bathrooms, a very nice kitchen and large dining table to accommodate the whole family. The amenities kept us all busy playing pool, tennis, basketball and of course the pool and spa! We were outside on the deck all day every day. The spa was easy to turn off and on and the pool’s temperature was perfect!! I couldn’t have asked for a better air bnb and would recommend this house to anyone interested. John was very responsive and accommodating to us.
