This is a beautiful home. The furnishings and style are nice. The negative comments are meant as constructive. The entry gate is very inconvenient. Upon opening the gate to leave I had to literally leave the car running after the gate, run to the home to open and leave the gate opener and fin back to my running car. The home needs updates and would benefit from a makeover. Communication with the owners were not easy as they live in Europe as well. Last, we left several items in the home which were not returned to us even after emailing the owners. Making these issues easier woukd go a long way.

Where to begin. A wonderful home. Loved everything about it. The pool was great for me, I swim laps and this pool was long enough to do it. We were supposed to be a party of 9 or 10 but 1/2 of them caught Covid and had to stay home. thought it was going to be a bummer, but the property is so wonderful that missing them was not that bad! this house has EVERYTHING that you could possible need. So very thoughtful ! Will stay again next year...hopefully with the whole family!

Great house and property. Owners were great to speak with before the rental and everything you need is in the house. Highly recommend.

My extended family and I had a WONDERFUL vacation at this FABULOUS house. We were a group of six adults and six children ranging in age from 5 to 12. The property has a great location and the amenities were unsurpassed. We have been using VRBO for over 10 years and this has to be the best property that we have used. The location is near Del Mar beach which had adequate parking and restroom facilities for our gang. Beach chairs and boogie boards are provided. The house is spacious, clean, well maintained, and well stocked with just about any appliance you could need. The host even provided half and half cream and biscuits for our morning coffee The grandkids especially enjoyed playing in the swimming pool and hot tub and the adults enjoyed the outdoor bar while on “lifeguard” duty! With the outdoor rose garden, the property is gorgeous! We were especially pleased with the responsiveness of the property manager. Every question was addressed quickly and in a professional manner. If we ever return to the San Diego area this is where we would want to stay. This is a 5 star property in every respect!

We very much enjoyed our stay in this beautiful home. The space is everything our family needed for a relaxing Mother's Day Weekend. Thank you for caring about your renters!

I almost don't want to post this review so I'll be able to get this property in the future more easily! :) This is absolutely a fantastic place and one of the best VRBOs we've stayed in. Super nice hosts, well kept property, great amenities. Would not hesitate for one second to book again!

This beautiful home is truly one of our best private rentals ever and was a perfect retreat for our family over the holiday break. The interior has a spacious layout and is very well appointed with a comfortable, welcoming feel. It was great to be able to have multiple areas to visit with friends and family across the kitchen/family room, dining room, gorgeous formal living room and bar/billiards room. The additional family room on the second floor was also great for the kids. Overall, the bedrooms and bathrooms were spacious with comfortable bedding and towels. A highlight was the incredible master bedroom suite with sitting area and fireplace. The home office and separate guest cottage also worked great for spreading out when duty called for the infrequent zoom calls during the break. Lastly, the back patio, fire pits and and pool/hot tub provided plenty of entertainment outside both day and night during the mild San Diego winter weather. We hope to be able to stay here again during a future visit!

Spacious, tastefully decorated estate thoughtfully equipped. Any questions were immediately answered by owner/manager. A very pleasant stay is guaranteed!

This house was so well equipped with EVERYTHING you will need. Check in and out are easy. We inquired about a rice cooker in the kitchen and there was one at the front door within the hour. The pool is heaven and location is amazing with so many towns and attractions within 30 minutes away. This home was worth every penny we spent on it. A big thanks to Elise and Lars from our whole family for making their home available for us to rent.

This is a lovely property, well maintained and spacious with a beautiful pool, patio and yard. The owners were great to deal with. We enjoyed our stay immensely.

Hard to believe, but this place is better and bigger than the photos. It worked great for 9 adults and 5 kids for our post-covid family reunion. Very private, quiet - tons of space. And very responsive owners and property manager. There was a blip with the Peloton on our second say and it was fixed the same morning. Would definitely stay there again.

the house was very comfortable and clean Back yard was awesome to use hot tub everyday only bad thing to many platforms for use of TV's just hook up to cable make it simple I would rent again

Would not hesitate to book here again. It is in a beautiful area and the house was lovely. If I were to change anything it would be to have a bed included in one of the ensuites that was designated for an office space with just a desk on the ground floor. However, that would not deter me from renting again just would be an added bonus. Thanks again, for having us.

We’ve stayed in several VRBOs and this is by far the best one yet. The only bad thing was we had to leave! The house is spacious and beautifully decorated. The owners have exquisite taste. The pictures don’t even do it justice. The house had everything we needed from electronics to kitchenware to sporting equipment. Everyone had plenty of personal space as well as space to be together, both indoors and out. It was also great to have the full separate casita with a desk for work and a Peloton bike for workouts. Watching sunsets from the hot tub was one of many highlights from our trip. The owners provided all the details and instructions we needed and were extremely accessible but there was nothing we had to reach out to them for. Everything was perfect! If you’ve landed on this page and are considering booking this property, DO IT! You will be so happy there.

This very elegant and functional home, with its pool and grounds, was perfect for the nine-day gathering of our 12 immediate family members. It provided areas where we could enjoy coming together — meals, swimming, fire pit talks — as well as plenty of space when a little alone time was needed. Upscale but comfortable....private and secure....great kitchen for the family to cook together. The property managers/owners could not have been more gracious or hospitable. The fact is we had nine “perfect” days in Rancho Santa Fe. We would highly recommend this estate home to anyone.

We just returned from a relaxing week enjoying some family time. My children and I loved the pool and playing sports in the large backyard. There was so much to do and enjoy that we never wanted to leave! This house has it all- amazing pool and hot tub, a beautiful garden, and gorgeous views. Plenty of space for a large family (including work space for anyone needing to work). The owners/property manager handled a small issue very quickly and they were very easy to communicate with. We would love to return!

Wonderful home for a large family gathering. Fantastic home for large family gathering. Spacious, well appointed, comfortable and fun for entertaining (great kitchen and adjoining family room). Gorgeous backyard and outdoor set-up with pool/spa, lounges / sitting areas, multiple fire-pits, TVs, grill and bar gazebo within a peaceful and private setting. Elise and her staff were responsive and accommodating - wonderful hosts. Direct access to scenic Rancho Santa Fe walking trails (25 min walk to the village). Would definitely rent the house again.

The house is even more beautiful than the pictures. It's the perfect place for a family get together and we truly enjoyed spending Christmas here. We would love to stay again and have no complaints whatsoever. A beautiful home and the owners were easy to communicate with in regard to any questions. There was plenty of space for our party of 9 to spread out and the views are gorgeous.

Better than the photos and so tranquil.

We stayed a week and had a fabulous time. The house was as pictured, decorated beautifully, well equipped and very secluded with a great pool and yard. We loved our time and even after a week none of us, including the teenagers, wanted to go.

We had a wonderful stay at this house in Rancho Santa Fe. The house itself is spectacular, the pictures are NOT an exaggeration of how beautiful it is!! It really is that fabulous! The layout, the bedrooms, the amenities, all played a perfect role in making our visit comfortable and enjoyable. The home owners could not have been any more gracious, or hospitable. They were always quick to respond and accommodating to our specific situation. We look forward to renting this house again, and again 😊
