About this house rental
Panoramic ocean views steal the show at this private, original adobe retreat, a paradise rich in
charm and attention to detail. Nestled atop the foothills of Vista in San Diego's North County,
this three-bedroom Spanish hacienda also includes an office with a double trundle bed and a
game room with a queen sleeper sofa.
As you wind up the palm-lined private gated driveway, you're welcomed by a grand fountain
inspired by the Bethesda Fountain in New York City's Central Park. Originally built in 1926, this
secluded adobe home sits on a 1.45-acre estate and exudes timeless character, with original
Spanish tiles, brickwork surrounding the great room fireplace, exposed wood beams, and solid
wood doors throughout.
This is authentic California indoor-outdoor living at its finest. The home is surrounded by lush
landscaping, including an orchard filled with citrus and fruit trees, along with multiple indoor
and outdoor entertaining spaces. Spanning more than 3,000 square feet, the main house
consists of three buildings connected by a loggia, or covered walkway.
The expansive kitchen in the main house features two ovens, a side-by-side refrigerator, and a
dining area. Guests can also enjoy alfresco dining on the veranda just off the main living room.
The poolside entertainment area feels like a private resort, complete with a full outdoor
kitchen, two dining areas, a large BBQ space, and a waterfall that cascades through three
soaking pools into a tropical saline pool. A 38-foot waterslide adds to the fun. The game room
includes a pool table, darts, a 75-inch TV, and easy access to a whirlpool tub just outside. It also
features the queen sleeper sofa.
With unobstructed west-facing views, you can see both Catalina and San Clemente Islands on
clear days. The property truly feels like your own private resort.

than 30 minutes, you can reach the beaches of Oceanside, Carlsbad, or Encinitas. Heading
inland, the newly opened Elephant Valley at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park is just 22 miles away.

We loved this vacation home! Our family had an amazing time. The house was super cozy, the pool was amazing for hanging out, and the decoration made everything feel stylish and comfortable.

The property is stunning! The house is beautifully decorated with everything you could need, even a juicer to enjoy all the citrus fruit from the large orchard. The beds were really comfy. The pool is amazing with a long water slide and gorgeous views. Poolside is a great place to relax or set up to work and enjoy the sunshine and breeze. Taking an evening stroll past the fruit trees around to the top along the pooand down by the massive fountain adorning the circular drive provides stunning sunset views. It’s clear the owners take wonderful care of this spectacular place. Booking and check-in was easy and clear. Just an all-around great experience. I’m looking forward to my next stay.

This was an amazing experience! We enjoyed every moment. Swimming, sliding, picking fruit and juicing, the pool table, gazing out at the gorgeous views. We loved it!!
Something to note for people traveling with children. All of the bedrooms are accessed outside. There is a main living area with kitchen, dining room and living room. Covered walkways lead to the bedroom/bathroom combos, but they are not accessible from the main house. This was fine for us because our children enjoyed the set up but it would not have worked when they were younger. There is one bedroom that has a guest bed attached so parents could stay with smaller children in there.
The pool area is paradise, i could stay there for days never wanting a thing. Both kitchens are fully stocked. One tip would be having more beach towels. There were 6 for us which was enough but a larger party would want more. Small critique.
6.0 / 10.0Average·Nov 2020
We were so excited to rent this property because of the pool, waterfall, and slide for our ladies trip to relax and have an amazing view and fun time with the pool. It was fabulous for the first two days but then the waterfall, slide and all together the pool pump stopped working. I tried contacting management and it was handled very poorly and it did not get fixed. We were mostly upset that no one even came to look at the pool over the 24 hours I had been reaching out.
We specifically rented this property for the soul reason of the pool but we were disappointed the third and fourth day it wasn’t working. They offered $20 at first to reimburse us then agreed on $100. With spending $3400 we just didn’t feel that was a justifiable reimbursement since people most likely would rent this property for its pool and amenities.
Another part that was not mentioned is the chickens/ roosters that apparently are on the land tight by the house. They woke us up every morning at 4:30 which was not pleasant.
Overall it was a nice spot, but wouldn’t go back.
