Really nice--and comfortable house. Kitchen has everything needed for cooking. Nice fireplaces (inside and out) and a cool small hot tub.And great to meet the caretaker--Juan the black lab!
My husband and I vacation on Encinitas often and this was our first stay at Ericâs place. We loved it and plan to return! Well appointed and cozy! We didnât need to bring anything and the place was very comfortable and clean. Eric was very responsive to any questions we had and told us he has plans this year to add a few more features to the home. This âbungalowâ is a perfect space for a couple.Thank you so much!
From the minute you step through the gate into your private oasis, you are immediately âhomeâ. Eric has poured so much love and thoughtful design into every square inch of this property. Easy access to the freeway and downtown. We spent ever single morning and afternoon on one of the patios drinking coffee or sipping wine. The neighborhood is so quiet and peaceful you never want to leave. Trust me! And for those concerned about the owner living on property-itâs all what you make of it. They are so helpful and friendly or will complete leave you to your day if thatâs what you choose. Not intrusive at all. You will love it here. Trust me!!
We had a wonderfully relaxing stay af this amazing home in Encinitas. Quiet neighborhood, walkable to everything, and great accommodations. Weâd love to come back soon.
This was a 10/10! Honestly, the cleanest and most well equipped rental Iâve been to. The hosts are wonderful. They were accommodating and very communicative. The house was amazing. Perfect location, walkable to the beach and main strip. The space itself is beautiful! Bright and airy. Very comfortable bed, nice bathroom. The kitchen is stocked for serious cooking, there are plenty of towels, bathrobes, beach gear and extra blankets. And of course the outdoor space was incredible. We traveled with our baby and loved being able to have outdoor space to relax after her early bedtime. Highly recommend. Weâll be back and hope to use the tiki hot tub next time!
very pleasantly surprised as to the quality of the home.. all amenities were top notched.. cottage was very cooly decorated, bed was comfortable. ,, outside living area was quiet and relaxing.. could not have asked for a better accomadation...
Really enjoyed our stay! Ericâs place is perfectly located and has a wonderful vibe. Especially enjoyed Juan, one of the goofiest/ friendliest dogs I have ever met. I highly recommend!
Thanks Eric and Anne for a great week! Property was beautiful, Juan was a treat, and the hosts helped us roll with a few hiccups along the way. Great place!
Such a romantic and cozy place! Juan the lab greeted us and helped us eat bacon. Would highly recommend and would stay again! Lazy Acres has great food to cook in the fully stocked kitchen.
Fun, comfortable, inviting, well equipped great location, nicely decorated beach pad. Good Internet & AV. Nice sitting areas in front and back. Stayed for five nights. Had a great time. Highly recommend.
Great time. Great place. Great location. Whether you are out of town checking out San Diego or you live in the city and need a staycation...this is an excellent option. My family of 4 had a great time hanging at the house and it is an excellent base of operation for exploring the beach communities. We will be back.
We loved our stay at Pacific Palm Grove! The cottage and grounds were just beautiful...so well-designed, well-equipped and comfortable. And we so enjoyed walking in the historic neighborhood..such an eclectic array of homes with pretty gardens and foliage. Gorgeous beaches nearby too, and a lovely botanic garden. Great restaurants and cute shops in the area. Our host, Eric, was incredibly helpful and nice. We'd go back in a minute!
Loved everything about our stay. The kitchen is fully equipped/stocked for cooking although we chose to frequent the wonderful restaurants just around the corner. The yard and fireplace (although we didnât have a fire) were so quaint. Inside common spaces were just as relaxing. Bed was comfy and there was plenty of closet space to unpack (which I love to do when staying for more than a couple days). Not to mention host was incredibly responsive and accommodating! Would definitely stay here again and again.
This property has everything you need to work (incredibly fast WIFI), relax (loved the soaking tub), surf (very close to Swamis), and cook (incredibly well appointed kitchen for a rental - sharp knives and cast iron?!? Amazing). I want to keep this place a secret, but that wouldnât be fair! We will be coming back!
The PBC was absolutely adorable! Perfect for 2 people. Everything was very clean, and the home had most everything you would need for a stay in Encinitas. The kitchen was well stocked. The grounds are amazing! I especially loved the outdoor fireplace in the front yard, I used that all of the time. It has a gas start and then the super dry wood took off immediately. I would read my book in front of it daily. Parking was easy, and always available on the street or in the grass driveway. I highly recommend the place!!!
My husband and I were very impressed with the cottage and felt extremely comfortable there, in fact we are already planning our return visit. The space was perfect for the 2 of us, but we may have felt crowded bringing the kids. The kitchen was top notch and Eric had 2 grills plus front yard and backyard seating/visiting areas. The town of Encinitas was so close, and we had a great time exploring the hangouts. Next visit needs to be a little longer!!
From the moment we stepped onto the property, we knew we had picked an extraordinary haven for our visit. We walked through the door to the sounds of Hawaiian music, we scanned the room to find a unique, spectacularly decorated, inviting backdrop for our time near the beach! Eric, our host, was incredibly friendly and extraordinarily helpful. The stay was restful, the atmosphere was charming, the host exceptional! We'll be back.
This place is as charming as the pics. Easy walk to Encinitas, shops and restaurants.
Dripping with charm! Palm fronds from every window. Even the unusual rain didnât cramp our fun as the cottage is perfect for enjoying all weather. Listening to the trees and rain in the cozy cottage was as delightful as the sunshine. Kitchen is nicely stocked for cooking and enjoying family in the open space. We look forward to returning!
The hosue is as beautiful as it looks online. Sunlight streams through in every room. The outdoor space is nothing short of magical. There are many ways you can enjoy the space. We used the outdoor hot tub which was fun and the fireplaces/tiki torches made the experience feel like youâre in a different world. Downtown Encinitas is walkable and so close to the highway to explore the rest of San Diego. Kitchen was well stocked and chef grade appliances and pans.
Loved our stay and highly recommend!
We love staying at Eric's PBC - The whole vibe of the place makes you relax instantly. It's full of light, even on cloudy days. He has stocked the kitchen with everything you need and more. All appliances are fabulous and everything is immaculately clean! Laundry right outside the back door. Juan the beautiful black lab is always ready with a welcome :) Neighborhood is quiet and convenient to everything. Thank you Eric
We loved our stay, beginning to end! Our flight was canceled & Eric was kind & gracious enough to work with us to extend our stay by 2 days. The weather started out a little gloomy & chilly so we didn't get to use the outdoor spaces enough, but certainly will do next time. The shower is extra special & invigorating & the bed is super comfortable & the area was very quiet. I'm an insomniac & still managed to get some sleep here. The entire space was just lovely & we are already thinking about a trip back. Loved Encinitas, & Loved this little slice of paradise. Thank You Eric, Anne & Jaun!
A native Southern California coastal resident for 40+ years! I have spent the past 30 years in North San Diego County enjoying the coastal community and environment as I will always be drawn to a western sunset! I have a 20+ year commercial real estate background with broad geographic coverage with a Global firm before starting my own firm in 2011, Commercial West Realty Advisors. Love traveling and using VRBO/Homeaway properties all over! Spend lots of time in Baja enjoying the rugged country it offers In close proximity to San Diego. Trail running in local mountains occupies much of my time as well. Just love that southern CA lifestyle so much....
Encinitas is perfectly located and yet a relaxed beach town... Coastal and ocean access for beach and surfing is awesome, trails for running, and close walking proximity to both downtown Encinitas makes the location a big win!! Love the quiet neighborhood full of unique and eclectic homes dates back to the 30's! Large lot sizes allow for more than typical land per house in comparison to any other coastal community!
Other than all the reviewed amenities and features, we are happy to share the PBC for your use and thus access to Coastal Encinitas. Feel right at home in our wonderful community and Enjoy your visit to the Encinitas & its California Coast as a local!
