About this property
Secluded Sanctuary & Retreat - Sleeps 11
This 4-bedroom Solana Beach home plus pool house with 2 lofts blends elegant shabby-chic décor, vaulted ceilings, and English imports for a warm, luxurious feel. The lush backyard features a pool, spa, and sauna, while the pool house offers a sitting area, kitchenette, and two loft sleeping spaces. Located in the heart of Solana Beach, it’s a short walk to the beach, great restaurants, and San Elijo Lagoon—perfect for up to 11 guests.
Solana Beach Sanctuary is available only when the owner is away, so it feels like a true home. Warm, welcoming, and full of character. Elegant shabby-chic décor, vaulted wood-beamed ceilings, a natural stone fireplace, and unique imports from England (including an AGA stove and breakfast bar) set a luxurious yet comfortable tone. The expansive great room blends kitchen, dining, and living areas, opening to the lush backyard for a seamless indoor-outdoor experience.
The palm-lined yard features a sparkling pool with waterfall, attached spa, and dry sauna. After a swim, lounge under the lanai or curl up with a book in the fresh ocean air.
The main house offers four bedrooms: *Master suite: California king bed, fireplace, large en-suite bath, and private patio overlooking the pool. *Southern wing: Two rooms sharing a bath—one with a trundle (twin-to-king) and 60" TV with games, the other with a queen bed and patio lounge. *Artist’s retreat: Downstairs, off the main living area, with California king bed, fireplace, and en-suite bath.
The detached pool house has a cozy sitting area, and a kitchenette with microwave and mini-fridge. The sleeping areas are arranged as : * Loft One: Queen bed with a full bathroom on the same level. * Loft Two: Full bed in a snug, bed-only space. Ideal for teenagers.
With fast Wi-Fi, a home office, and a library with fireplace—all within walking distance to the beach—this is California living at its finest.
Solana Beach is a beautiful seaside community with wonderful restaurants, bars, and the famous Belly Up Tavern for live music. The coastline has countless beaches and spots for surfing, tidepooling, and the nearby San Elijo Lagoon offers many wonderful trails and hikes.
Cedros Design District is a short stroll with a Winery, Brewery, many Cafes and fabulous shopping.
The pool is not heated, but is plenty warm for swimming in July .
I’ll personally greet you at the house when you arrive to walk you through all the fun and important details—like how to turn on the pool waterfall, brew the perfect espresso, or get the dry sauna ready for a relaxing session. During your stay, you’re welcome to call me anytime if you have questions not covered in the house information booklet. I’m available 24/7 to make sure your visit is seamless and enjoyable.
