Amazing Month
We spent a month at this condo and had an amazing time. The views are amazing and we loved being so close to the restaurants. So great to be able to walk to dine instead of drive. Parking was secure and we had two spaces which was nice. Host Udeerna was very quick to respond to any questions. Looking forward to returning!

Perfect Location
The location is great and the pictures don’t actually do the view justice. We stayed here a bit over a month and really enjoyed it. Beach is about a 10 min walk, great sunset views, close to restaurants/shops, priced right. The layout is really nice too with a room/bathroom on each side of condo. The master and livingroom each have ocean views and balconies. Nice little hot tub and there is a pool but it isn’t heated. The place really needs some cleaning and general up keep and maintenance items taken care of but if you can get past that it’s a solid stay. Does have internet although it was a touch slow at times and bogged down on Zoom/Teams video calls. Not sure if it has cable, there is a box but couldn’t seem to figure it out and there wasn’t instructions.

Amazing location!
It's hard to beat this location, overlooking the Pacific, with beautiful beaches on one side and lively downtown Encinitas on the other. The place is spacious, well-appointed, and comfortable, with two balconies providing amazing views and refreshing sea breezes. Udeerna is a wonderful host and very responsive.

Great location
We stayed for the month of March 2022. We loved the location on the bluffs above the beach and only 3 blocks from Highway 101 and its restaurants and gelato shops. We could look out the window and often see surfers and dolphins. We used the Tides app to plan our walks on the beach between Swami's and Moonlight or down to San Elijo State Beach. It was no problem getting HelloFresh boxes delivered for those meals when we didn't want to eat out. The kitchen worked well for us.
We used the hot tub frequently but it was still too cool to use the unheated pool.
The owner was responsive to our questions and made our stay very enjoyable.
We would stay here again.

Just stayed at Udeerna’s property for the past two months. I cannot say enough about Udeerna. She was so accommodating and replied so promptly to any questions I had.
The property has this beautiful ocean view and the location of this property can’t be beat! So looking forward to returning next year!!!

magical month on the cliff!
I couldn't be more happier with my month-long stay at Udeerna's place. You really can't be int a much better location in Encinitas. Ocean breeze all day long. I stayed there with a platonic friend, and it was perfect, because the bedrooms were on opposite sides of the apartment, and each had there own bathroom! So we could be social with each other, and also have our own privacy. If I place to come stay again for a month, I wouldn't think of booking any other place!

Great location! With some updates it could be a great place to stay.
We have been renting month long rentals at a time while our home is being repaired from water damage. With long term rentals you are locked in for 30 days and to rent site unseen can be a challenge. This condo could be great with updated linens, beds and bedding. The kitchen was pretty well equipped. The pool would be nice in the summer but was not heated as advertised which was disappointing. The best part was the view and the grass area right on coast edge.
