Stayed here with family and friends as an anniversary present to ourselves, and used this as a spot to gather so family could come see us as opposed to us driving everywhere to see everyone else. There was plenty of space to hang, and visit comfortably. It was great to be able to kick our feet up by the fire while the kids were in the spa and that we were close enough to be comfortable enough to do so. Loved how the front entry way gate could lock so we could leave the front door open and let the kids out without worrying they might get to the street. Would definitely stay again!

This house was wonderful! The owner was responsive and amazing. I needed a mixer and she had one delivered to the doorstep for me so I could bake for my family! We really enjoyed the beach toys too! Boogie boards were a HUGE hit! It really felt like a home away from home! Would definitely rent again!

Wonderful Stay

My family and I had a wonderful stay here. It is a beautiful home with nice facilities and features, able to accommodate a large family with kids and grandkids. If something wasn’t working they were fast to respond and help. Very comfortable beds and great pool/backyard. I would recommend this stay.

Wonderful stay for your next gathering!

Great accommodations for our group of 12! The house was very spacious and everyone (from ages 3-80+) were comfortable! Marie and Brandon thought of everything - the house was well stocked and we loved gathering around both indoor and outdoor dining areas. Good location for Legoland and Safari Park. Highly recommended for large groups!

Fun at villa Descanso

We really enjoyed our family reunion at Villa Descanso. Accommodations were very nice and the location was very handy for our trips to the beach. We loved the pool. Our only disappointment was to find out that heating the pool cost an extra $100 a day. All in all it was a great time.

Thanksgiving in Oceanside

It was wonderful! 8 adults, plenty of space, so many spots to gather indoors and out, very comfortable. Clean! Cooked everyday, kitchen was awesome for cooking for a crowd. Backyard was so fun! Coming from Boston it was such a treat. Running and walking trails close by that we used everyday, neighborhood is great. Would book another stay here in a minute!

Great Thanksgiving Holiday escape

Well run and super stocked home that was perfect for our three generation family to celebrate the Thanksgiving holiday. The pool is worth the heating cost as the littles loved it and while that was happening the massive TV's took care of the crew to watch the football games. The kitchen has everything you'd need and then some as we made all of our meals at the house. Will book again for sure.

December stay

We had a wonderful time at Villa Descanso! We stayed Christmas week with 4 teenagers/preteens, 4 parents and 3 grandparents. The property was clean and well kept, the kitchen well stocked, and there was lots of space for our extended family to spend time together. The spa and pool were relaxing for kids and adults alike. Elodie was very quick to respond even when we messaged her on Christmas Day about a last minute decision to heat the pool for the kids the following day. Thank you for a relaxing and wonderful stay!
