About this property

Beachy ocean view with Happy Vibe in Cardiff by the Sea

This is a 750 sq. ft. above garage apartment. It's modern, clean and open. Great views of the sunsets over the ocean and beaches. Safe, quiet neighborhood on a cul-de-sac. It is a 5-minute walk to the State Park Beach and surfing spots. We are conveniently located within 5-minute walk of restaurants, shopping, and grocery stores.
We are on-site owners, who are available for questions, recommendations, and help. There is a private entrance on the side of the house with designated off-street parking. The designated spot is right in front of the entrance to your get-away.

We have beach toys and boogie boards for the kids. No children 7 and under please, including infants, due to stairs, balconies, and breakable items. This is not an event center. We want this to be your sanctuary and not shared with those you may be visiting. You will be in a very quiet neighborhood to enjoy the sights and sounds of Cardiff by the Sea.

Beautiful View
This is a beautiful property with a multi-million dollar view, and walking distance to shops, restaurants, and the beach. Our hosts could not be nicer and the experience was extremely pleasant. We hope to be back soon.

A remarkable unit in a great location!
In this world of online reviews, it seems that just about everything gets 5 stars. We wish we had the opportunity to grade this VRBO with a higher rating since we would clearly give it 6 or even higher. This spacious unit overlooks the ocean. It is bright and so easy to live in. Lance and Michele thought about absolutely everything to make our stay delightful. It was clean, it was quiet, it was well equipped, it was private, it was inviting, it almost felt like home. Directions to use any amenity were clearly provided. And the location could not be beat, within walking distance of a delightful village. It is highly recommended!!

Great place
This was a great place to stay over the Thanksgiving holiday. In a residential neighborhood, so it was very quite. A parking place and all the utensils you need in the kitchen. Beds were comfortable and I have to say the shower pressure was to die for. Easy to communicate with owner, who lives downstairs, but was never intrusive. Just a great place with a view of the ocean!.

The sunsets from the front deck are great. You can see LaJolla from here and the Coronado Islands in Mexico on a clear day (50 miles away)
