Fresh & Modern 3 BDR Just Blocks from Beach!
Summary: A secluded retreat in a quiet neighborhood less than 1 mile from the beach – that’s what you’ll find waiting for you at Cozy Contemporary in the stunning city of Encinitas! With its unique combination of modern beach culture and old town atmosphere, spending time outdoors exploring this coastal destination will be a pure delight, with exciting activities and charming sights around virtually every corner.
The Space: Pack up your beach bag for full days under the plentiful California sun, splashing in the cool surf and relaxing with a good book on the sand. On your way to the beach, you’ll have your choice of delicious dining options just a few blocks away from the home, giving you the option to stop in by car or head out and explore on foot. Want to escape to San Diego, Oceanside, or Old Town? Take a walk to board the Coaster, a commuter train which provides breathtaking views of coastal scenery while offering transport through San Diego County.
You don’t have to leave the home to enjoy the warm, fresh air, however, as the home’s outdoor spaces will make you feel as though you’ve escaped to your very own oasis. Lounge the day away on the relaxing outdoor patio area at the front of the home, with a selection of comfy reclining chairs. Grab a refreshing beverage and relax on the comfortable outdoor sofa seating under the shaded pergola day or night, sharing stories from the fun-filled day. Up on the deck, a dining set with umbrella and seating for 6 is perfect for hosting meals al fresco. Coming home from a day at the beach? Rinse off in the convenient outdoor shower!
You’ll feel right at home the minute you step through the front door into the fresh and modern interior, elegantly furnished and keeping style and comfort top of mind. The chic living room includes plush sofa and armchair seating along with a mounted smart TV for quiet evenings spent streaming your favorite movie. Should the nights grow cooler, light up the gas fireplace to spread warmth and ambiance throughout the room. If you find yourself needing to catch up on work while away, a dedicated workspace with desk and chair are nearby allowing you to focus while keeping you connected to the rest of the group. From here, head into the formal dining area and take meals seated around the elegant table with views of the lush native landscape. Continuing into the updated kitchen, a spacious island is ideal for meal prep, also offering seating for 2 for quick bites or dining overflow. Stainless steel appliances, stone countertops, and a farmhouse sink are showcased here, and you’ll find the cabinets well-stocked with cookware and dining ware for whatever culinary desire comes calling.

Recently named among the 20 best surf towns in the world by National Geographic, Encinitas wears its surf history proudly. Located along six miles of Pacific Ocean coastline, Encinitas is an unspoiled reminder of the historic Highway 101 beach culture that thrived in the mid-1900s. The city's eclectic downtown has long drawn surfers with its unique and dynamic blend of San Diego's top surf shops, coffeehouses and record stores, not to mention the beaches in Encinitas are coveted by locals as hidden gems. Encinitas is alternately known as the "Flower Capital of the World," because of its extensive collection of unique nurseries and gardens, most extensive of which is the San Diego Botanic Garden, and the world's leading grower of the Christmas flower, the poinsettia.

Enjoyed our stay at this property. 5 stars on everything. Location, Amenities, Cleanliness and accuracy of property descriptions. Would stay here again without hesitation. Much Thanks
Walking distance to the beach and the Encinitas "strip" of restaurants and shopping. Really nice outdoor spaces; a table on the deck, benches by a fire pit, a deck off the primary bedroom, and superb landscaping. Beds in the primary, a pullout bed in the 3rd BR, and a sleepable couch.
Everything was perfect except for 2 things, the pull out sleeper was very noisy to sleep on and due to the high heat during our stay and the unit not having A/C it was hard to sleep even with the windows open and the fans on.
Very nice quality property, furnishings and features. Good size kitchen, lovely outdoor seating areas. The property manager was very responsive and helpful. The master bedroom was most comfortable and well appointed. The beds in the other 2 rooms were very tight to get in and out of. Would recommend this property. Not happy with VRBO because they would not honor my One Key Cash credits I’ve accumulated from prior VRBO rentals because they said the owner of this property doesn’t allow that. But the management of this property said that is not true— VRBO is responsible. Unresolved.
It was great until we noticed a leak under the bathroom sink. The property manager contacted a plumber & he came out quite late in the evening & it turned out the water heater had gone out. So no hot water in evening & next AM while new water heater was being installed. A bit of a disruption to our last days at the property! Other than that it was lovely!
