Other details to note \* Enjoy a 10% discount on your stay if it spans 7 nights or more. \* Enjoy a 17% discount on your stay of 30 nights or more. \* The Encinitas occupancy tax, which is 10%, is waived for stays of 31 nights or longer. \* There’s a $100 pet fee for the additional cleaning that’s required for all stays that include any kind of dog. Please refer to the policy for more details. \* There’s an additional $20/night fee for the 5th guest, covering the wear and tear on the bungalow and sofa bedding that will be provided upon check-in. \* Stays longer than 15 nights necessitate a thorough cleaning approximately every two weeks. We will charge for the extra cleaning(s) and, if applicable, pet fees after the reservation is confirmed. Additionally, we love to keep our places spotless for all our guests. If we need to go above and beyond the usual cleaning, we will ask for reimbursement for the extra time we put in. PET POLICY We love dogs, and our policy is really pretty simple. If you are bringing a dog(s) we need them to be crated if left alone. If you don’t have a crate, we have ones you can use. We understand if your furry family members can’t stay off the sofa or bed; we do have special sofa blankets and/or beach towels to protect the furniture. We try our best to accommodate all our guests and can’t have dogs directly on the furniture as it’s unhygienic for others who might be more sensitive. We also incur extra cleaning fees to prepare for our next guests. Cleanliness and sanitation are very important standards to our overall business. For this, we do require an additional pet cleaning fee. Finally, we expect our guests to pick up any dog waste daily in the yards and rinse down the area where the waste was picked up. CITY PERMIT DETAILS City of Encinitas Permit RNTL-000206-2015 and RNTL-019918-2022. We expect our guests to keep noise down to a minimum as this house is located in a residential neighborhood and quiet times are from 10pm to 7am. We have a maximum overnight occupancy of 5 guests. Maximum of one parking space is available in the private driveway/garage around back accessed by the alley. Trash is picked up on Friday mornings and all trash and recycle goods should be placed in the containers by Thursday night as pickup is usually very early. CLEANING POLICY Hey there! Here’s a quick rundown of how we make sure your bungalow is spotless and ready for you. We’re a bit of a neat freak crew, and we take pride in giving you the best possible experience. Here’s what we do to prepare the bungalow for your arrival: First things first, we let in the fresh coastal breeze! We leave windows and doors open for a few hours so the air can flow in while we get to work cleaning. In addition to our regular routine, we disinfect all high-traffic surfaces too. Every single bed linen piece (even mattress pads, pillow protectors, duvet covers, and blankets!) is always laundered between uses. And don’t worry, all bath linens (shower curtains and bathmats too!) are laundered between visits to keep things extra fresh. We know what you’re thinking: our cleaning fee might seem a bit steep. We totally get it, and we’re here to break it down for you. Our crews—from the family that cleans the living space to our partners who tackle laundry—are all paid fairly. We believe that hard work deserves an honest living! To get into the nitty-gritty, we usually spend around 15 hours readying the space and laundering the linens (all 10 loads of them, as detailed above). Here’s the thing: what you see and pay for is what you get. We want you to feel right at home each and every time you visit the bungalows, and a spotless space is essential to that experience. Your cleaning fee helps us pay our professional crews and keeps our high sanitation standards up. So, thank you for helping us make the bungalows your favorite clean and cozy getaway spot!

Stacey met us at check in and gave us a thorough walk thru of the place! You cannot ask for a better place to stay. Very clean, organized, and had everything that we needed. The outdoor space was so relaxing, great place to eat dinner and enjoy the evening by the firepit. The location is excellent, easy access to the interstate and to the scenic highway. There is a grocery market and several restaurants within walking distance. Keith is a great host, checking in with us to make sure everything was fine during the week. Don’t wait, reserve this place now! ##### Patricia P. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rachel H. Dec 26, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Modern, comfortable and walkable We were fortunate to stay here, nestled within a mini-forest of mature plants including palm trees and jade bushes. Modern and comfortable, there is thoughtful attention throughout the dwelling.The two bedrooms were great for our family. The eat-in kitchen is organized and well appointed. There is even a table for outdoor dining, and a fire pit. The neighborhood is quiet and tranquil, yet a 4-minute walk from shops and restaurants including the stellar Seaside Market. They have an unexpectedly ample selection of delicious prepared goods. Across the street from the shops is the coastal rail trail for bikes and pedestrians. It extends north and south for miles along the Coaster railroad, and beach. Access to the beach is about a 10 minute walk.We hope to return! ##### Rachel H.

My wife and 20-month-old daughter stayed at this wonderful bungalow and Keith made us feel at home right away. Within hours of being there my wife and I were already talking about coming back. Keith was extremely helpful and the property has everything you need. I mean everything you need, from health and beauty items you may have forgotten to pack to laundry detergent so you can do a load of laundry. Keith and his team have great attention to detail! The bungalow was extremely clean and the furnishings were very nice and comfortable. Amazing location right near the beach, as well as shops, restaurants, grocery stores etc. all within walking distance. The property also has beach cruisers and an Instep bike trailer for toddlers which worked great for us when we went on a family bike ride. In addition to the cruisers there are surfboards, boogie boards, wetsuits, beach chairs, and more all for your use while staying at the property! Can’t wait to return!!!! ##### Tito D.

The organization of the property is top-notch with a small booklet for suggestions of things to do and information about everything that may be needed during the stay. The house is located at the heart of Cardiff by the sea with walkable access to San Elijo beach/Cardiff state beach which makes it great for a beach getaway. The house itself is equipped with everything we needed to have a good time. Keith is a very pleasant person, made sure to show us around and give us pointers to ensure me and my parents have an excellent stay. ##### Sherif E.

I have never stayed at a rental that had every amenity, and we took advantage of them all. Surfboards, beach chairs, and boogie boards made for a blast at the beach. We rode the bikes to Encinitas for cocktails and dinner. Played a cut throat game of Perudo in the crows nest, and chilled by the fire catching up with our kids. We were here only for the weekend, but Stacy and Keith made it easy to pack a lot into our short stay! ##### suzanne d. Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Matt A.

Upon our arrival, we noticed a welcome basket with snacks and drinks. The garage is fully stocked with bikes, surfboards and more. We spent hours around the fire pit at night enjoying dinner and roasting marshmallows. They were very communicative throughout the process and checked in during our stay to make sure we had everything we needed. It was all the extra little details they thought to add that made our stay really memorable. We can’t wait to come back!! ##### Cathy K.
