  Carl C from LV, NV recommends this vacation rental

  This was our second time staying here and love the location and the fact that it is pet friendly. The kitchen was our favorite place, great stove, fridge and eating area, bring sharp knives if you intend to do any cutting although the rental has plenty of cooking knives they were all blunt. The BBQ could do with a refresh as it was difficult to fire up but once going it's a super hot BBQ.
  We love the location and would recommend it to any groups from 4 like we were to 12.

  a guest from Nephi, UT recommends this vacation rental

  The house is ideally located in the area. We were right by Legoland and about 20 minutes from Sea World and the San Diego Zoo (depending on traffic of course). The house is very nice, big and spacious. We enjoyed all the different levels and loved that each bedroom had a bathroom attached to it. The hot tub and pool were a hit. We enjoyed them every night after all the trips to the theme parks and the beach. It doesn’t have air conditioning and we were told that is normal for the area. We were told to open the windows and it was so nice to have the ocean breeze coming through the windows. The house is right on the beach of a lagoon that is gorgeous. The guys were able to fish right off the beach. We would love to plan another trip and stay at the house again.

  Gene and Lorraine B from Scottsdale, AZ recommends this vacation rental

  PLENTY OF ROOM, GREAT LAYOUT FOR 3 FAMILIES - WE HAD 11, 6 ADULTS AND 5 CHILDREN FROM 7 TO 16. EVERYONE WAS HAPPY WITH LOCATION, SO MUCH TO DO. KIDS LOVED THE WATER SPORTS ON THE LAGOON, POOL AND HOT TUB AND OF COURSE THE BEACH, 5-10 MINUTES AWAY. LEGOLAND WAS ALSO ENJOYED BY ALL. WE VISITED THE SEAPORT FOR DINNER AND SOME OF OUR GROUP TOOK A DAY TRIP UP TO HOLLYWOOD AND TOOK A TOUR.
  SEDANS COULD NOT BE PARKED DOWN ON DRIVEWAY.
  SMALL APPLIANCES, TOASTER, TOASTER OVEN NEED UPDATING, EVERYTHING ELSE WORKED FINE.
  DEFINITELY NOT FOR HANDICAP, A LOT OF STAIRS.
  WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND THIS PROPERTY.

  Kellie F from Gilbert, AZ recommends this vacation rental

  The living area in the house is great for large families or a group of families. Loved the pool and the hot tub. The fire pit was nice at night. The property could have been cleaner but it was livable. The beach at the bottom of the property was not great. There is a great beach about 2 miles down the road. During our stay there was a mouse in the house. The property management company was quick to respond. We stayed with 2 other families and had plenty of room.

  a guest from Running Springs, CA recommends this vacation rental

  Our family was more than satisfied with our stay in Carlsbad. The location on the lagoon was perfect. The pool and hottub, the many bedrooms and bathrooms,the large kitchen,made our stay enjoyable and comfortable for our family reunion. We have all agreed we would like to go back again in 2013 to the same place.

  a guest from Draper, UTah recommends this vacation rental

  Overall the property is very nice! Secluded yet still close enough to be convenient for groceries and the beach. Mattresses were a little firm, but that is a matter of personal preference. Some minor details need to be attended to such as the tiles in the hot tub,etc. but still very nice overall. The house has lots of room and we would definitely stay there again.

  Amy B from Phoenix, AZ recommends this vacation rental

  This house was perfect and fit our family's needs. It was large and spacious, there were plenty linens, towels, supplies. The kitchen is huge and the back yard was amazing. We loved the views, and used the pool, spa and firepit nightly. It was chilly, so having the option to have the pool heated was amazing. The kids were entertained constantly. Thank you so much!

  Andre B from Falher, Alberta recommends this vacation rental

  We just came back from our holiday in this big beautiful house & want to thank the owners for allowing us to rent it. We are a family of 3 couples with 2 children, ages 10 months & 4 years old & everyone had a great time. Having each our own bedroom, TV & bathroom gave us the benefit of a hotel yet the house gave us the intimacy of a home. My 4 yr old grand daughter wanted to live there forever & ever.
  Before I rented it, I read a review that said it was run down which made me nervous about renting it, so I thought it was important that I do this review. We didn’t find the house to be run down at all, however I suspect that they may have felt that way because it is not a new house. The doors, cabinets & kitchen tiles are most likely the original ones so they are a little worn but they still serve their purpose. The carpets in the bedrooms are older but they are clean which is what matters to me the most. In fact we found everything to be very clean, even the countless windows were spotless. The only suggestion I would have is to have a new toaster & possibly a digital clock radio in the bedrooms. The WiFi is strong throughout the house. I was a little disappointed to be cut off the evening before we left though, not sure if that is standard practice or if it was an error.
  The beach is great but if you have trouble walking you may have trouble getting down there as there are quite a few steps & they are very steep. To sum it up, it was a great holiday & if I told the kids we were going back next year they would be jumping with joy. Don’t be afraid to rent this house, it is everything the pictures say it is & more.
  
  I dealt mostly with Vanessa when I booked the house & she was very friendly & accommodating with questions & requests. Due to allergies we asked that the sheets & towels be washed in unscented laundry soap & they were very willing to do that for us, as well as clean with unscented products. We can’t tell you how much we appreci
