The luxurious interior features a grand living space, fully equipped kitchen, a game room, a listening room, and an outdoor entertainment area that includes a resort style salt water swimming pool, hut tub, putting green, pergola, outdoor fire pit and built in BBQ. Relax with the whole family inside and out at this stunning vacation home away from home!

The Space
Hi! Welcome to The Good Vibes House, situated in a highly desirable neighborhood of Escondido! Hidden in this quiet, family friendly neighborhood is a spectacular backyard resort that we have enjoyed throughout the years, hosting to friends and family.

The kids favorite feature of the backyard is the pool slide and putting green, while we personally enjoy taking care of the Avocado trees and fruit trees as they produce very fruitful harvest every year. If you happen to be a welcome guest during those seasons, you'll love the fresh avocados, valenica oranges, tangelos, pomelos, figs, and more.

The record player in the listening room does not work.

The outdoor shower doesn't work. We ordered a part and it is currently on back order.

We hope you'll find your favorite spot within the backyard resort, make great memories and enjoy the experience as much as we do.

San Diego is amazing and the pool was even better than it looks in pictures.
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Oct 2025
From the moment we arrived, we were completely blown away by this incredible property. Every corner is beautifully designed, with décor that’s both elegant and inviting. The home is immaculately clean, thoughtfully presented, and finished to perfection. The outdoor area is simply amazing — the pool, spa, and sauna create the ultimate space to relax and unwind. Whether it was a morning dip or an evening soak under the stars, it felt like a private luxury retreat. Inside, the games room was a huge hit — perfect for fun nights in and creating great memories. Every detail has been considered to make this place truly special. It’s rare to find a property that looks even better in person than in the photos, but this one absolutely does. We loved every moment of our stay and can’t recommend it highly enough. A five-star experience in every way!

We recently stayed at this house with our 2 young children and both sets of grandparents and it was perfect! We had a great time swimming and playing in the backyard and playing cards on the patio. Both the outdoor space and indoor space allowed for us to stretch out and have our own space. The hosts were awesome! We’ll definitely be back! Thanks!
