We had a lovely stay. The home was conveniently located close to downtown Encinitas. The home was in a quiet neighborhood. It was clean, spacious, and well stocked. The property group responded quickly to any questions. The outdoor space was wonderful, we really enjoyed the hot tub and views of the ocean. Highly recommend staying here!

Reviewer Comments:
We stayed a week at the Coastal Cottage and it was wonderful. The property was clean and had everything we needed. No a/c, but opening the front and back doors for the cross breeze was the best! Upon arrival and initial walk-through, we realized a few items were broken - a hinge on one of the cabinet doors and the rear door lock wasn’t functioning. We also noticed a significant amount of dirt and sand inside the hot tub - the water was very dirty. I reported these items to the management company right away and they not only responded quickly, but had someone out the next day to fix things. It did take 2 days for them to get the hot tub cleaned. The location was great and the neighborhood was incredibly safe. Highly recommend!
