			My family had a wonderful stay at Amber’s house. The home is beautiful and well equipped with anything you could need during your stay. There was plenty of space for the 7 of us. We were visiting with our two young children and the house had lots of toys, baby gates, dishes, high chair, etc. so our kiddos felt right at home. We would love to stay again during a future visit to Encinitas!		 - 1/20/2024

			At risk of my new favorite home being booked SOLID when I try for another family holiday in Leucadia….the La Veta home is dynamite. The vibe is inviting and comfortable and energetic. The photographs really can’t do this place justice….the open floor plan of the kitchen, dining and living area is just so dope! Open up the glass door wall and feel the flow from the front door to the back yard. My family cooked and baked our entire stay, and the kitchen really is set up with quality tools and appliances like Amber claims. The bedrooms are cozy and calm for siestas in the midst of a family vacation…with bathrooms for everyone. Amber is a legit host: Proactive, accessible, honest and reliable.

Our family top 5 La Veta list? The kitchen island; the butlers pantry; the outdoor shower; the deck sofas, fire pit, and large screen TV for beer drinking and laughing; and just being in Leucadia to grab the sunsets with the neighbors. 

I’d almost cheat on my dog for a home like this!		 - 12/27/2023

			Amber’s home is truly amazing, peaceful and relaxing! We can’t wait to book it again in the near future 🙂

It’s the perfect size for our big family with kids! The pictures provide an accurate preview of what to expect when you arrive.  

In addition to the home itself the delicious coffee beans and other kitchen and bathroom supplies make it so easy to travel light to Encinitas. 

The local recommendations for restaurants and coffeehouse were delicious!		 - 10/13/2023

			Amazing stay! The house was spotless and probably the cleanest rental I have stayed in.  Everything was so thoughtfully curated - impeccable taste and design.  They have seriously thought of everything and it felt like a 5-star resort from the linens to the toiletries.  We traveled as a family - 12,10, and 2 yr old.  The outdoor setup was amazing and we used it every night.  Super nice to have the fire on and watch a movie.  We walked to the beach every day and used all of the beach gear amber has at the house - we didn’t need a thing!  Proximity to restaurants was perfect, super walkable location.  Loved queenstage coffee - wish I would have discovered it day 1. 

My only challenge was keeping the house as clean and sand free as we found it. We tried really hard, but with kids it’s game on! 

Amazing experience, we will be back and would highly recommend.		 - 8/18/2023

Your Host

our family

Hi there, I’m your host, Amber!

I’d like to personally welcome you to our family’s beach home in Encinitas. We’re excited for you to experience this incredible house and town, and hope that you and your family enjoy it as much as our family does.

I’ve carefully curated the design and amenities to combine form and function, and make it easy to travel light while having everything you need and want.

Our beach house underwent a complete down-to-the-studs remodel in 2022, and it’s been so rewarding to see all of the details we’ve been planning for several years finally come together.

I’m here to answer any questions you have before and during your stay.

We look forward to sharing this wonderful place with you and your loved ones!

Amber
