"An Unforgettable Coastal Getaway with Breathtaking Views and Exceptional Hospitality! ❤️🌊 Our stay at the Wharf Master's Inn was absolutely amazing! We originally booked just one night, but we fell in love with this beautiful place so much that we decided to extend our stay for an additional night. One day simply wasn't enough! Sometimes you find a place that makes you want to slow down, stay a little longer, and enjoy every moment, and this was definitely one of those places. The location is absolutely breathtaking, but the outstanding view from the balcony was truly something special! Sitting there, taking in the beautiful ocean scenery, and enjoying the peaceful coastal atmosphere was such a relaxing and memorable experience. And let's talk about the jacuzzi! 🛁 It was the perfect way to unwind and make our stay even more special. To make the experience even better, we discovered the Epsom salt bubble bath from the gift shop, which was such a wonderful touch! A relaxing jacuzzi, lovely bubbles, and the beautiful atmosphere made for the perfect little escape. These thoughtful details really added something extra to our stay. I especially want to give a huge thank-you to Karen, our wonderful host! She was absolutely amazing, answering every question we had and going above and beyond to help us, even taking extra time not to forget the staff &the perfect breakfast hank you, Karen, and the entire Wharf Master's Inn team, for making our stay so wonderfulExceptional Hospitality"

"Marissa was super fast with any questions we had and even told us to contact her the day before to see if an earlier arrival was possible. We loved the large sheltered deck facing southwest for the sun and view.The hot tub was super clean and the rolling umbrella made it easy to adjust to the sun's position during the day.The new 3 piece sliding glass doors to the deck from the living room was perfect as it made the deck feel like it was part of the living room.We had a very enjoyable stay.John"

8/10 Good
"This property was very clean inside. The exterior needed some help with the window screens and maintenance of the enclose courtyard. The vegetation has taken ove the yard. It is a perfect size for having a dog with you and not having to worry about them. The garbage enclosure needs a better way to keep the wildlife from knocking over the cans and spreading trash around. Communication with the host was excellent and responses were quick. The kitchen was well stocked with untensils and equipment. The location was excellent and the pool at the Del Mar Community Center was really a plus. We really enjoyed our stay."
