Lovely kitchenette room with second, private bedroom; personal patio and community patio with amazing view of beach and ocean from high on a hill! Kind and helpful staff. Beach chairs and boogie boards freely borrowable. Easy access to beach, coffee, and ice cream. Pretty neighborhood. Short walk into town. Could not have been nicer!

I’ve been coming here for 25 years, and am never disappointed…The rooms are newly renovated and always clean with the patio door open to the best view in Encinitas…At night when everything gets quiet, you can even hear the waves crashing from your room…
