The property is awesome! It has everything you need for an amazing vacation. The house is fantastic and thoughtfully stocked with everything we needed. Heated pool and slide was a blast for the kids. Can’t wait to come back!

What a fantastic property. The pool area is phenomenal. Location is 20 seconds from beach entrance. Walked to get gelato around the corner every night. Kids had a blast with the toys in the garage. Super close to train station and Cardiff. TV’s in every room. Wish we could have stayed longer.

We had a wonderful time. The location was perfect, close to beach and great restaurants. The house was very clean and comfortable, it was perfect for our family vacation and the pool with the slide just put it over the top. Everyone had a great time and all agree we would return.

I’m sure there’s plenty of amazing reviews for this property so I’ll try to explain my reasoning.
1. Location. Knowing nothing about San Diego- I didn’t completely understand the location but it’s absolutely perfect. It’s an easy drive to La Jolla, Del Mar, Cardiff, Encinitas. The house is about two properties down from the walking path to the beach.
2. Details. I’ve rented many many properties. What impressed us about this one is their attention to details. I’m talking about throw blankets when you’re on the couch (many never have that). Well sized towels. Plenty of basics so we didn’t have to run out to the store right away ( toilet paper, dish soap, shampoos, ziplocks, etc). That’s another big perk that many places don’t offer. They have bikes and beach chairs. Just an overall great focus on making a rental a home.
3. Awesome A/C. We like to keep it cold at night. We turn it up during the day. But at night, for sleeping, we like it cool and the AC was great.
4. Overall- great property. Perfect for our family. Very clean. Can’t imagine we’d ever pick a different spot if in the area again.

This property checks every box. Our family of 6 stayed here a week and loved the house, the pool and location a lot! Smooth booking and communication process. House is perfectly stocked w quality items (think cookware, towels, etc). Maintaining a property to this level also deserves a shout out, it's so well kept yet feels comfortable and home like. Overall this was one of the best VRBOs we've ever stayed at. If you own or are considering owning a vacation rental and want to do some research on what a professional 10 out 10 experience looks like then book this place.
PS I recall the listing saying somewhere that the pool is not heated, not true, you can have heat and it's lovely!

Great property
Very nice and clean place, amazing location (the steps down to the beach are less than a block away), the kids loved the pool. We were very impressed by the property manager - we've had good ones before, but the level of professionalism here was a cut above. The communication was great, and I suspect they helped advise on how the property is set up - this place had everything we could think of, which isn't always the case with rentals. It was well thought out.

Perfect Getaway
This house is just lovely and the location can not be beat!

The layout of this house with living/play/bedroom/bath areas both upstairs and down, as well as front and back outdoor living spaces was ideal for families with children, including grandparents who could have privacy in their own bedroom and bath suite at the end of the hall. The children (ages 3 - 11) loved the pool and the water slide especially, and spent most of each day in the pool. After dinner walks to the beach at low tide and sunsets were yet another treat for them. The house itself had every possible kind of equipment and convenience for children, water play, and for cooking meals, which we did for every meal. It was wonderful to visit with extended family after a year without being able to do so, and the house and location made our visit that much more special!

This vrbo property is one of the best we’ve ever stayed in! We rent a vrbo 2-3 times per year and this truly was one of our best stays. This house has everything you need for a fantastic vacation! Kitchen was fully stocked with anything you might need, even down to dish detergent and zip lock.bags. I don’t know if it’s always that well stocked but we were very impressed. I ordered groceries through Instacart before arrived and didn’t even need some of the stuff I ordered because the house already had it!
The owners and managers have thought of everything. High chair and pack n play are there at the house for a baby. Sand toys, skim boards, boogies boards and 7 bikes are all neatly stored in the garage.
The walk to the beach was even better than I expected. Walk out the gate, cross the street, walk down 3 houses and there you are at the steps that lead to the beach. That was such a huge perk!
The pool was loved by my 4 kids! They told me I was the best mom for finding a place with a slide!
There is great dining close by, with Covid most places are only doing carry out but that honestly worked better for us anyways with little kids. We ate dinner in the front courtyard of the house every night under the little white lights. It was beautiful. Do yourself a favor and skip
Robertos taco shop. Drive just a mile further to los olas. So much better! Pizza port by the house had great pizza, our other favorite place was Micheline’s pita house about 5 mins away. So good! And don’t forget to get donuts from donut house. We loved them!
Honestly can’t say enough good things about solana beach house. It’s beautifully decorated, with plenty of towels and extra beds should you need them.
Michelle, Melissa and Tom were quick to respond and easy to communicate with.
We are already looking at our calendar trying to figure out when we down make trek back to Cali from Tennessee. Hope you enjoy the house as much as we did!

Everything about 'Olde Solana Beach' was as advertised, it provided for an outstanding trip to the sun from a snow-bound Montana for a "big" birthday. Although very short walks take you to the beach one way, and shops, restaurants and the highway the other way, the house is a peaceful, quiet and leafy haven, with all that is needed to relax when not at the beach, the Zoo, Safari Park, Downtown, Balboa Park or all the other attractions that abound. We were a group of grandparents, children and young grandchildren numbering six in total, and all thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The property is extremely well furnished and equipped, with multiple indoor and outdoor areas to play, relax or escape your fellow guests (or grandchildren), should that be your wish. It goes without saying that the pool, hot tub, water-slide, patio, balcony and courtyard were all much used and enjoyed, and we lacked for nothing, including bicycles, surfboards and childrens' toys - perfect! As was the wonderfully comfortable bed!
A great place to stay, thoroughly recommended - as long as it doesn't clash with when we next wish to visit!

Great family getaway
Our family absolutely loved this house and the owners attention to detail helped make this feel like a home away from home during our stay. The house was immaculate and everything was provided that you could possibly need (from the really well stoked kitchen down to the bluetooth speaker in the beach chairs). The property is 200 ft from beach access and the pool was great. It is also walking distance to restaurants, the arts district and only a 5 minute drive to Encinitas/Cardiff. We highly recommend this property. The TR Davis team were a joy to work with and we will look to stay with them again.

Beautiful Home in a Perfect Location!
My family of 6 stayed at this beautiful home for a week. We visited many of the amusements parks that the area had to offer but after a few hours the kids wanted to come back to enjoy this wonderful home, especially the pool and waterslide. We split our afternoons at the pool and the beach which was a very short walk away. The house had everything we needed and was beautifully decorated!

Fabulous!
We have stayed in several north county beach properties over the years. This is by far the best!!! The property was pristine and offered every amenity. The close proximity to the beach was a dream. Perfect for family.

The perfect getaway
This beach house is steps away from beach access. I could tell that the owners really thought through the planning of this rental because this house has everything you could ever need when vacationing. It is very well organized and clean. I loved being able to step out on the back patio and see everyone in the swimming pool/hot tub but also loved being able to dine out on the front patio with string lights. The location was ideal. Easy bike cruise to grocery store, shopping center, restaurants, and Fletcher Cove. Will definitely be coming back.

Magical and would definately go back!
This property way exceeded our expectations. Just steps away from the beach and minutes from beach towns with restaurants and shops, it was the ideal location. The house was immaculate. The décor was beach themed, higher end yet comfortable. The front yard was magical with lights and a great courtyard to sit in the morning with coffee or in the afternoon/evenings. The backyard is kids dream, complete with pool, slide and opened inside to big TV/game room and downstairs bedroom with bunk beds. The main floor has 2 big master bedrooms. ( There is not a bad bed in the place; so comfy!) Also, another living area, kitchen table and kitchen is fully stocked! I also want to add the bikes, beach chairs and everything else you would need for the beach is in the garage. Thanks again Beach Bungalow for an amazing vacation. We will be back!!

The best vacation rental experience I've ever had!
Let me start by saying I travel a great deal on business and pleasure, so I know what to expect and what not expect for hotels and home rentals.
We decided to enjoy the West Coast over the holidays with my adult children and their spouses. Solana Beach is approx. 30 miles north of San Diego and is a quaint little town with beautiful quiet beaches that go on forever. The type of place you would love to move to.
The house is located in a very nice neighborhood, just 2 blocks from Main Street(5 minute walk). There are nice restaurants and shops along the Main street and adjoining ones as well.
The beach is just out the front door and down some steps and the neighborhood was very quiet and peaceful. You couldn’t of asked for a better location if you tried. The house was spacious enough inside and outside, with plenty of room for all of us and could have easily accommodated more. The upstairs bedrooms each had a large TV, in addition to the ones in the upstairs living room and down stairs family room. From the downstairs you walk out to a well kept pool and jacuzzi. One theme of this house is, giving you enough room in and outside for places to relax.
The house was impeccably clean and well stocked with everything you need from toiletries and towels(so many soft towels!) to everything you would need to cook a full meal in the kitchen. In the garage, the owner had bikes to ride and boogie boards for the beach.
I can't say enough great things about the place, the combination of the house itself, the location, and ease to get to and the beach. My family said it’s the best place we have ever stayed and we will definitely be staying again.
