1013226I stayed at Bob's rental for a week with my two kids (toddlers) and a couple friends. I've rented a couple other places in the area and was really impressed by the house - it's so comfortable and well stocked with everything you need. I would go back here in a heartbeat.

1013226I echo the comments in the other reviews. We especially liked the proximity to the beach as it made it easy for the family to get down to the ocean quickly. The owner (Bob) was quick to respond to questions throughout the entire process. We will be back again!

1013226We stayed in the property over Christmas break with some of our family visiting from Canada. All of us couldn't be more happy with the house. Spacious with all the amenities, washer and dryer in the garage, nicely equipped kitchen, two balconies, large windows facing the ocean and a killer roof patio on which to soak in the sun and the views of the ocean, the home is a hidden gem. The photos don't do this home justice. The rooms are larger than they appear with many thoughtful touches -- think postal stamps and stationery in the writing desk drawer, and crayons, etch-a-sketch, toys, boogie board and a kids wagon for the little ones. Most importantly -- the location can't be beat. It's half a block away from the beach with unobstructed views of the ocean and sunsets at your disposal from the spacious roof patio. Last but not least it's only a 5-10 min walk away from Carlsbad Village Drive with its multitude of restaurants, coffee shops and bars. And if you're planning to explore places further out, Carlsbad is nicely situated between San Diego and Los Angeles which makes for a great base for trips to San Diego (think the Zoo, etc) down south on the one hand and Anaheim (Disneyland) and Los Angeles (Universal Studios) up north on the other. Bob and Sue were wonderful to work with to set up our stay. Rental agreement was no-nonsense, short and to the point. Communication was top notch, we always knew where we were in the process. Not only do we highly recommend this property, but we have already come back for our second stay with family from overseas in February. Thank you, Bob and Sue.

1013226We planned a last minute trip to the Beach, Bob and Sue were super accommodating. The place was great, walking distance to everything. The split layout was good as well. Very nicely appointed place- you won't be disappointed! We will be back. Thanks Bob and Sue! Joe and Keri

1013226House was in great shape, and is a very short walk to the beach. Beds were comfortable, and 3 kids had a blast. Nice 3rd floor roof balcony with a Weber gas grill for sunset meals. Amazon Prime, Netflix, HBO etc all available for evenings. Had we known how well-stocked the house was with beach gear, we might have packed quite a bit lighter: sand toys, boogie boards, beach chairs, beach towels, coolers, etc. All we really needed to bring to have fun at the beach were wet suits (in December) and surf boards. Bob was great to work with, and very responsive. On the first night, we found the DVD player to be inoperative. I emailed Bob the next morning, and by mid-day he had a new player in box and asked when he could come install it.
