Easy Walk Through The Park To Encinitas And Moonlight Beach. Relax and unwind in this fully restored and updated 1940’s beach cottage just two blocks east of historic highway 101. We’ve tried to think of all the little details that make for a perfect stay from the super quiet Fujitsu heating and cooling unit, to a six port USB charging station for your electronics, a blue tooth speaker, and quality hangers in the two closets. You will appreciate the California king bed, two luggage racks, ceiling fans, armoire, sectional sofa, 55 inch Roku TV in the great room and and Samsung TV in the bedroom. Access your Netflix and other subscription services. The kitchen has a 13.9 CF refrigerator/freezer with ice maker, a two burner induction cook-top, compact dishwasher, deep stainless steel sink, toaster oven with convection bake, a microwave, and a coffee maker. You’re an easy 10-20 minute walk to top notch coffee houses, the great shopping, and fantastic dining in historic Encinitas. Enchanting Moonlight Beach is close as well and we provide the beach chairs, umbrella, towels, cooler and a wagon to haul it all. Come home to an outdoor shower to remove the sand and salt. Bring your tennis or pickleball rackets as there are public courts 1 minute away. Only 10 minutes from the Coaster station, you can leave your car at home. Ride the Coaster to San Diego or get on the Amtrak for a trip to LA and beyond. If you drive, we have off street parking for your vehicle. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby - Beach loungers - Beach towels ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Car not required - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Ice maker - Kitchen island - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Wood stove ### Entertainment - Books - Games - Smart TV - Stereo ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Firepit - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - Area rugs in public areas - No elevator (single-level property) - Single level property - Smooth flooring in public areas - Tile flooring in public areas - Well-lit path to entrance - Smoking not allowed - Note from host: Please no smoking or vaping inside or outside. ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In the city center - Near a health/beauty spa - Near a hospital - Near an outlet shopping mall - Near the sea ### Things to do - Golf - Pickleball - Snow sports gear - Tennis - Water sports equipment - Basketball nearby - Birdwatching nearby - Cycling nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Scuba diving nearby - Snorkeling nearby - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby - Swimming nearby - Theme park nearby - Wildlife walks nearby - Windsurfing nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - At least 80% lighting from LEDs - Double-glazed windows - Energy-saving switches in guestrooms - Garden - Recycling - Unit size: 800 square feet - Water-efficient showers - Water-efficient toilets ## Similar properties ![Sun loungers, beach towels](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/20000000/19010000/19008400/19008388/6f038dbf.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### 2-blocks to Moonlight Beach, Private Yard, AC, bikes, Over 200 5-star reveiws Downtown Encinitas - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly 10 Exceptional 321 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-09&endDate=2025-12-10&selected=19008388&PinnedHotelID=19008388&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/20000000/19110000/19107400/19107355/97df3786.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Charming, Elegant, Luxury, Walk to Moonlight Beach & Downtown Downtown Encinitas - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Free WiFi 9.8 Exceptional 190 reviews CA $169 CA $385 total includes taxes & fees Dec 2 - Dec 3 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-02&endDate=2025-12-03&selected=19107355&PinnedHotelID=19107355&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/61000000/60280000/60278700/60278635/f6da8a03.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Stone Steps Beach is open !
