Luxury cottage beach retreat—best indoor/outdoor living spaces w/porch, fire pit, hot tub *EV charger available* - walk to the beach!

This home’s recent complete interior and exterior remodel has transformed this home into a beautiful three-bedroom, two-bath, 1-story, 1,700 sq. luxury cottage in the quaint village of Cardiff - where you are close to many local attractions and can also easily enjoy the more “yesteryear” aspects of a small(er) community along the coast. This home is located in the quieter neighborhood area of the oceanside/surf community.

Outside amenities include
a six-person hot tub, a barbecue, an outdoor shower, and a sand play area for bocce ball, corn hole or just hanging out. There is ping pong/table tennis set up in the garage for more indoor/outdoor living fun.

The main area of the home is a lovely open concept with a cathedral ceiling. The great room has a gas fireplace and a large smart TV, open to the adjoining kitchen with large island and many kitchen amenities and also the 6-seat dining area. The space invites you to socialize, celebrate, cook, eat, watch and hang out with friends and family. It is a special treat to open the La Cantina doors from the great room and enjoy the porch with its outdoor oasis anytime of day—while you watch the hummingbirds with your morning coffee or relax at the end of the day to a gorgeous sunset.

This home has three bedrooms: the master is the gem—with king size bed, lots of pillows, a wall-mounted smart TV, and a comfortable sitting/reading nook. The master has easy access to the hot tub outside via french doors. The en suite bath boasts a soaking tub, a large dual head walk-in shower, and a private outdoor shower which is definitely “spa-like”.

The second bedroom has a comfy queen bed and the third bedroom works great to flex for 2-3 people with its two twin beds, one of which has an additional twin trundle bed underneath. The second hallway bathroom has a luxurious deep tub with an overhead shower. All beds and bathrooms are furnished with a generous supply of linens to ensure you are comfortable at all times.

Additional amenities include a washer and dryer in the garage, high-speed WIFI, a Bluetooth stereo receiver and three outdoor driveway parking spots. Some beach chairs and gear are in the garage. EV charging is available to access for an additional fee.

Choose this vacation oasis, one mile or nice walk to San Elijo State Beach and you will definitely feel like you are experiencing a beautiful little slice of paradise. And it is very likely that you will create precious memories here that will last a lifetime. We have many return guests. This home is two-and-a-half miles from San Diego Botanic Garden and six miles from Powerhouse Park &Beach.

Best girlfriend weekend
Me and my life long friends gathered over the long weekend to surprise one of the ladies birthday who lives in the area. This home was perfect for us. So many areas to gather amd spend time catching up. We loved the firepit in mornings over coffee. Then in the evenings a warm hottub, was a perfect way to end the day. We would like to make this an annual event. Love this place.

Location and house are amazing. Really impressed with all of the amenities. We over packed since the house had nearly everything needed to take care of and entertain our toddler. Hope to come back soon.

Ideal for stay with kids
Beautifully decorated, equipped with all you need for travel with kids (e.g. pack and play, lots of toys, kids' utensils, etc.), ideal kitchen for cooking, great dining area for family meals, and ideally located relative to the Beach, Encinitas, La Jolla, and San Diego. We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again!

Great stay
The house is located on a quiet street with easy access parking. You can walk to the beach but it a good workout. The Encinitas park is very close with a nice 1 mile loop and popular skate board park plus more. The house is adorable with a great open concept. The front deck has a gas fire pit. The backyard has hot tub and area for games. The ping pong table is great fun. The house is very accommodating for families with young adults.

Fun times in Cardiff
This home was immaculate ! It truly looks like the pictures in the listing - open breezy great room with direct access to the beautifully landscaped outdoor area and contemporary decor. The beds were super comfy ! Easy walk to a local park with a fun play area for kids . Close to downtown, bike trails and the beach Make sure to check out the seaside market and if you are a meat eater -try the Cardiff crack- simply delicious! Lovely neighborhood! Wonderful family vacation

Beautiful House and Location!
We had a lovely stay at this beautiful home. Great location, quiet neighborhood, and the house was perfectly appointed. Our only complaints were that the hot tub was quite dirty when we arrived, and we could have used some extra towels during our stay. But other than that, it was perfect! Lots of stuff for our kids to do (ping pong, bocce, mini basketball hoop), beds were comfy, kitchen tools were fully stocked, and the outdoor space was beautiful. We will definitely be back!

What a perfect beachside getaway!
My family and I absolutely loved this house! And Cardiff by The Beach is such a cute little town. The house is a short 1 minute drive to beach, and also a quick walk to a wonderful little playground. When we weren’t at beach, we were playing Bocci ball or ping pong at the house, or relaxing in the Jacuzzi. And the house was lovely, with a fireplace my husband and I enjoyed at night after the kids went to sleep. Every restaurant we tried food was amazing, all very close by! We can’t wait to stay here again next year!

Great stay and beautiful property
Great house - lovely outdoor living areas. Only glitch was the hot water heater broke and they couldn’t fix it while I was there. Chilly showers for 3 days but the property management company did provide a partial reimbursement. They were great to deal with.
