Charming, Elegant, Luxury, Walk to Moonlight Beach & Downtown

10/10 Excellent
"We are former Encinitas/Cardiff residents and returned for a weekend to visit our old haunts and friends. This property was the perfect place to stay. Here is what we especially noticed:- Great location: Close to the I-5 and equidistant to either downtown Encinitas or the beach.- Very comfortable unit and well outfitted.- Comfy outdoor patio area.- Available off-street parking.Bottom line: We'd definitely stay here again next time we're in town. But, for those unaware of the trains running through Encinitas, you do near the train whistles at all hours of the day/night...not a big deal for us, but something to be aware of if you've never visited before."
