Holiday rentals with a fireplace in Leucadia, Encinitas

The house was just what my family needed. The inside and outside of the house gave us the rest and break that we needed after a long day. Olivia was wonderful and was on top of it with all the little details and was very responsive. Thank you and we will definitely be back!

Alexander's place was the perfect California get away for our family vacation! The location was awesome just a short walk from the beach. The backyard was so big for California and great for our dogs. It had a lot of seating and a hot tub which was perfect! Alexander was very responsive throughout our stay. There is a train right behind the Airbnb that used it's horn loudly multiple times a day and until about 11 which was very clearly listed in the listing but if you are sensitive to noise it might bother you. We had no issues with the train.

Gorgeous view from the rooftop, private hot tub and amazing home with plenty of space and beautifully furnished. Kitchen was amazing to cook in and the grill was awesome! Perfect spot to stay in wonderful Encinitas.

Mimi’s beach house is exactly what our family wanted and needed for the week. The walkability to Carlsbad Village, how easy it was to go for a run along the beach every morning, its proximity to the beach - it was perfectly located. And then the house itself was wonderful - clean, had a fire pit for smores / an evening outside, beds were super comfortable. Will def be back again!

Great experience from booking through to departure. The rental is as good as the pictures with great ocean views and stunning sunsets. The house was very clean and tidy, has all the amenities you need (including an entertainment system) whilst respecting the open plan, minimalistic feel. Drift Vacation Homes are very easy to work with. Communication was excellent, they offer clear instructions and are very responsive. We were afforded a late checkout ($50), this made our last day more enjoyable before heading to the airport. The overall price is in keeping with other rentals in this area, in my opinion you definitely get what you pay for. We would, without hesitation, book a rental through Drift Vacation Homes in the future.

We had an exceptional surf weekend at Nicole‘s place in Cardiff. Being able to walk to the beach was heavenly, and using the outside shower after surf sessions made it simple and easy to transition into relaxing chill time at the house and around the fire pit. The beach gear was perfect for those that wanted to relax on the shore, and it was in excellent condition, basically brand new! Nicole was very helpful and responsive, and it was very thoughtful of her to offer us early check-in when she noticed we were driving down from LA. We’ll be back!

We loved our stay in this beautiful home. It was immaculately clean and we immediately felt at home due to the many thoughtful touches. The hosts were incredibly considerate and really helped ensure we had the best stay, going above and beyond to accommodate our young family! The kitchen is a chef’s dream and the yard a spot of paradise. We couldn’t recommend this home enough. It was absolutely fantastic! We hope to come back someday soon!

What an outstanding stay we had. The home had a beautiful yard, was quiet, cozy, and comfortable, and had everything we needed and more! Bob and Kim were great at communicating and made us feel right at home. Loved the decor and all the thoughtful extras!

We had a great stay at Laura’s place! It was an awesome location! We loved the vibe and the at home feel. Everything we needed was provided. Beds were super comfortable, and the entire place was very clean. Having a parking space was also very convenient! Laura was really attentive to any questions, and I can tell that the comfort level of her guests matters to her. Would definitely stay here again!

We really enjoyed getting out of the city this weekend. Susan’s place is tucked away and peaceful, and it was beautiful! We loved lounging by the pool and hearing all the birds, seeing her horses, and hearing the frogs and crickets at night. Definitely a good place to unwind if you are looking for a place to relax. Susan was really quick to respond to issues and was very proactive. Good place for a couple - just a note that there isn’t a complete closure to the bathroom, but that didn’t bother us at all.

Place was wonderful. Check in was ok. Directions was confusing around the place and map was not to helpful at all. Steven was great w/ communication.

Quinn’s place was a great location. We were able to walk everywhere. The bay was an easy walk to get to. We enjoyed the mile walk around the bay to find places for dinner. Hosts were very quick to respond with any questions. The place had everything we needed.

Ricardo is a extremely detailed host and the place was exactly as described. Location was convenient because every major city within San Diego was only about 10 mins if that!

Clean, quiet, and cozy. 10/10 would stay again.

We had a great stay! It was close to the beach and easy to walk to restaurants and coffee shops. Bradley was very responsive and helpful!

We had an exceptional experience! We felt right at home and had everything we needed. The garden was beautiful and we had such a peaceful stay. We were in town for a wedding at the Grand Tradition. It is literally 3 minutes away. Perfect location if you're in town for a wedding!

Absolutely loved our stay! The place was gorgeous—even more spacious than the photos show. It’s much closer to the beach than we expected, and falling asleep to the sound of the waves each night was pure magic. The location is perfect—walking distance to great coffee spots and restaurants. The hosts were fantastic with communication, and the home was well-equipped with everything we needed. It was quiet, peaceful, and the perfect getaway. We can’t wait to come back!

Liam and Mia were lovely! They were very communicative and responsive to all my inquiries before and during our stay. The place was immaculate and everything exceeded our expectations. There were also plenty of extra towels and comforters, which was a big plus for our group of 10. Definitely recommend!

You enter the house, a little uncertain. From the outside, a little underwhelming. You pass through the cosy living room, still a little underwhelming. And THEN, WOW. The pool area, the tennis court, the Vista to the west, the mountains...spectacular, breathtaking, everything as advertised and more. Back in the house, you find a very well stocked kitchen, extremely comfortable bedrooms, a unique "guesthouse" for the Seniors (in our case), and above all...everything in working order. Absolutely no issues! Bravo to our great landlord, who was a super communicator. Overall: our family of 12, across 3 generations, found wonderful places to be together as well as to disperse. A great time was had by all in this Vista Villa wonder!

The airbnb was spotless and Jacqueline was a perfect host. She was very attentive with anything that was needed and check in was a breeze. The location of the airbnb was within perfect distance of everything in San Diego. Honestly couldn’t ask for anything better. If I’m ever in the San Diego area again I would definitely stay here again.

This stay was beyond my expectations. The comfort of the home, the surrounding area, the beautiful views and peacefulness. It was all amazing, didn’t want it to end.

AMAZING! My friends&I loved every part of this air bnb 💖 thank you so much for letting us stay here and have our girls trip. Anytime I had a question, Richard was responsive and always friendly. Hope to come back soon!

Sheila’s beautiful villa was absolutely what we needed after a long exhausting day with two toddlers at Legoland. We had stayed at a residence before here so we knew the layout and amenities more or less. It’s exactly what we expected and more. The beautiful pools (with a baby friendly pool), the kids club, the beautiful views, the delicious on-site restaurants, complimentary fruit-infused water, the adorable stuffed animal seals for the kids, and more. We loved that the kids could stay in the living room. Sheila had provided two cribs that were already set up prior to our arrival. The check-in was super smooth! We communicated for days before our arrival and we felt really happy with everything!!! We loved the amenities and after Legoland, we needed a bit of luxury and rest for ourselves. Thank you again for letting us stay in your lovely villa.

The villa on the hill is a hidden gem that I would gladly go back to. The views were breathtaking from just about any spot on the property. One of my favorite parts about the whole villa stay was sitting in the hot tub watching the sun set in the evening. The villa itself was just as beautiful on the inside as it was on the outside. The owners keep it very clean and stocked with cooking utensils if needed. It was the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of Southern California, and I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a peaceful and spacious place to stay.
