About this house rental

Enjoy your personal luxury oceanfront getaway located in the exclusive guard gated community of Saint Malo Beach. This charming French Normandy styled community has the feel of a beachside European retreat with old world charm, community beach, volleyball and tennis courts. This home is a classic French indoor/outdoor house. As you enter, you'll walk through a breezeway to the center courtyard. Four of the seven bedrooms can be accessed directly from the courtyard. This includes one bedroom with king bed/full bath, one bedroom with twin beds/full bath, and two other bedrooms with queen bed & twin beds that share a shower bathroom. There is also another bedroom on the main floor that cannot be accessed from the courtyard. This bedroom has a queen bed/shower bathroom. Back to the courtyard - there is also an outdoor staircase that leads to a separate space that provides a quiet, private haven of its own. This space has a bedroom with a king bed/shower bathroom as well as a living room and kitchenette. Moving into the main home, you are greeted with high-ceilings in a classic great room with ample seating, wood burning fireplace, side patio and panoramic ocean views. The open dining room has a large farmhouse table that seats 8-10 guests. There is a gourmet kitchen with a large center island and updated appliances, including double ovens, two full-sized refrigerators, and a small beverage refrigerator. Moving downstairs from the great room is a game room with a pool table, flat screen tv, comfortable seating and a gas burning fireplace. There is also a king bedroom and shower bathroom off of the game room. Walk out the French doors to a glassed-in patio spanning the width of the house. The patio boasts a comfortable seating area under a protective gazebo and a large dining table for al fresco meals. There is a small beach area just steps outside the patio with loungers and umbrellas for soaking up the sun and ocean views. Our home in St. Malo is perfect for a family getaway or a group gathering. We hope you enjoy!

The home’s neighborhood of St Malo has history going back to the 1920’s and is rumored to be the first gated neighborhood in San Diego. It is modeled after an old French village and feels like you’ve been transported to another place and time. There are 3rd generation families with prominent last names with homes here. We loved the vibe of the house itself - it is old but not forgotten or left to deteriorate. We spent most of our time at the beach. The kids loved the Sandy backyard and there were lots of toys provided. We also enjoyed walking the neighborhood and admiring each home, the lush landscaping, the bunnies running around, and the various birds such as pelicans and blue herons. There is a private community beach area as well with steps to the beach. During our stay the tide was up so far that there was no beach to walk unfortunately. We were hoping we would be able to walk the beach to Carlsbad and into the village but Mother Nature wasn’t on our side. There were plenty of restaurants nearby and we did a lot of Uber Eats. One thing we noticed is that 90% of the neighborhood was empty. We only saw a couple of people, and the guard occasionally passed in his golf cart. It was remarkable to stay at the beach during a weekend and have it be so calm and quiet. While just up the road in Carlsbad we could see plenty of action. We really enjoyed the peace and quiet. Overall, we’ve never experienced a place like St Malo. Highly recommended!

I really enjoyed staying here. This is definitely one of my top accommodations that I've enjoyed- ever! The house was really comfortable, had impeccable style and was well appointed with kitchen items, entertainment and incredible views. The host was kind and easy to communicate with. Beach access was easy and there's excellent outdoor beach-facing entertaining spaces. I'm quite grateful that this family has been kind enough to share this awesome place with guests. :)

This home was the perfect space for our group. The location is incredible in a very charming neighborhood and right on the beach. Each person in our group had their own bedroom and there was plenty of space for gathering together inside and outside. The kitchen is incredibly well organized (every drawer labeled!) and very well appointed with nice appliances, three types of coffee makers and dual Bosch refrigerators. If you want to gather with friends or family this is an excellent choice. We are already talking about booking again!

Great house right on the water. We had 4 families stay at this house and had plenty of space to all come together or all go to our private areas. Cute gated community with lots of things for everyone to do: pickle ball, tennis, volleyball, hide and seek and a private beach area.

We typically stay in St Malo which is a really special community. It is a very safe and secure neighborhood with beautiful scenery to enjoy on walks. We love to walk to the Beach Break for breakfast to kick off the day. There are great restaurants nearby. This house in particular was a lot of fun and perfect for our group celebrating my mom’s 75th. It was comfortable and is right on the beach. There is plenty of room and lots of space to have time to yourself. If you like to cook, the kitchen is amazing. Lela the host was very accommodating to our group traveling from different states and made every effort to accommodate my requests and allow us to maximize our time together. She was easy to communicate with and replies promptly. It was a terrific experience all around and she really went above and beyond.
