For a week, our multi-generational family, was able to call this place our home. When looking for properties, we had some needs that weren't easy to be met - grandparents in their mid-70's with limited mobility plus families with different aged kids. This place fit the bill! Everything that my Father-in-Law needed was located on the main floor, no steps to go up and easily to get around. They were able to stay on the main floor bedroom. The rest of us slept in the bedrooms (and office) upstairs. The bedrooms were large and beautiful, all with a private bathroom.
Mark (the property owner) was so friendly and made sure we were comfortable in the house. He was readily available throughout the trip for any questions I had.
Okay..now the property. Holy smokes did we fall in love. There are so many areas throughout the property that if you need to get away from everyone for a bit, there is a place for you. We did spend most of our time in the pool/hot tub area and absolutely loved the beautiful landscaping and the privacy. You feel like you're in your own little world. We were able to enjoy the volleyball net in the yard a couple times, while grandparents sat up at the top of the stairs and watched.
The decor is top notch inside. It is so beautifully done and looks like it could be out of a magazine. The kitchen was large and we loved cooking in there. The grill-master in the family was impressed with the grill, as some places have a subpar option, but this was not. Location wise - it's really easy to get around. Disney was around 1-1.5 hours away, shopping (Fashion Valley Mall) was around 40 min away, airport around 40 min away, Tamarack beach (Mark suggested) was around 30 min away, Del Mar Racetrack around 30 min away. It was a great location and we felt safe knowing it was a gated area.
We made so many great memories on this trip, specifically at the house. I can't recommend if enough. Thank you, Mark and Karen, for allowing us to stay at your house. You guys have an absolute gem! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
