I would not recommend booking with Haustay. We typically use Airbnb for our annual family vacation…read moreto San Diego, but this year we decided to try a different platform. Considering we were spending around $1,000 per night for an entire week, we felt confident booking with a company whose website emphasizes "exceptional service." Unfortunately, that was not our experience. We were traveling from Arizona to escape the summer heat with two small children and a 6-month-old baby. We knew when booking this beachfront property that it did not have air conditioning, which normally isn't a concern for coastal San Diego. Unfortunately, our stay happened to fall during unusually warm temperatures and record-breaking humidity. The house was extremely muggy and never cooled below 80 degrees, making it incredibly uncomfortable, especially with a baby and young children. Given the unusual weather and heat advisory, we reached out to Haustay and asked if they could provide a portable AC unit. We were told no because the property was advertised as not having AC. We then asked for additional fans. After multiple texts and follow-ups, fans were eventually delivered, but they provided very little relief unless you were standing directly in front of them. At that point, we asked whether we could receive a refund for the remaining nights so we could move to a hotel with air conditioning, or whether they could accommodate us at another property. Again, the answer was no. Their reasoning was essentially that the home was advertised without AC and they had provided us with fans. We completely understand that Haustay cannot control the weather, and we knew the property didn't have AC when we booked it. What was disappointing was the lack of flexibility or meaningful effort to help when circumstances became unusually uncomfortable. When you're paying around $7,000 for a week and a company markets itself around exceptional service, you expect more than being reminded that the listing said there was no AC. Haustay also told us that the owners would not allow them to provide a portable AC unit. If that's the case, my recommendation to Haustay would be to have portable units available for situations like this, particularly during extreme weather, so they have the ability to actually provide the exceptional service they advertise. Unfortunately, the heat wasn't our only issue. During our stay: * A fire alarm went off at 4 a.m. because of a bad battery * Landscapers showed up at the property without any advance notice to us * The Wi-Fi went out * The washing machine or the wall behind it appeared to be leaking water onto the laundry room floor * Bug found in the master tub upon arrival Any one of these issues on its own would have been manageable. Combined with an unbearably hot and humid house and the lack of meaningful assistance from management, it made for an extremely disappointing stay. This is the one big family vacation we take each year, and we specifically spent more money hoping to have a great experience. Instead, we spent much of the week uncomfortable and trying to get help. For the amount we paid and the level of service Haustay advertises, we expected much better.

I'm staying in a two bedroom that's very spacious. We have a family of four and it's perfect. Two bedroom and two baths. This is a boutique feel, the staff is incredible.

The beds are comfortable with fluffy pillows and white comforters. I'm here in the peak season and it's around $7k for a week. I personally think it's worth paying more to be right on the beach. It's absolutely heaven to wake up to the sounds of the ocean and see the sunset on the water every night. Also, it's dog friendly!

Since hubby and I had time off, we decided to do something a little bit local, but far enough to feel like we were away from Orange County. So, we traveled south to Carlsbad. We packed up the kids and headed to the 2 bed 2 bath Wave unit in the Swell building. We were fortunate to be given early check in. Self check in was a breeze with the emailed instructions. Super cool feature: ELECTRONIC LOCKS! I felt like I was using The Force every time I waved my hand in front of the lock. There is a shed full of beach chairs, boogie boards, sand toys, a couple of soft top surfboards, umbrellas, and I think some canopies. Barbecues have dedicated gas lines. Oh, there's a game room! We got my son off the electronics long enough for a spirited game of foosball...the game room also includes Ms Pacman, an old school pinball machine and shuffleboard. There is also an outdoor shower with HOT WATER that my surfer dude relished. Speaking of hot water...on day 2, hubby went out for dawn patrol. When he came back from his early AM surf, he was looking forward to a hot shower. Our shower would not heat up! The other shower and every faucet in the unit ran hot water, but for some reason, our bathroom shower did not. I texted property management, they promptly replied, came in an hour to verify my findings, and sent a plumber to make repairs. Thank goodness for the in-unit washer and dryer. I threw in a beach towel in the dryer to defrost my hubsicle. Great management, awesome property. We hope to check out their other rentals! We appreciate the amenities and know we'll be taken care of should the need arise.

The Inn at Moonlight Beach somehow made me want to stay put. The room itself felt like part of the retreat. The bed was absolutely scrumptious, our private deck had a distant ocean view and space for yoga, and the soaking tub with flowers and bath salts made staying in feel like an experience. I loved that nothing felt like standard hotel luxury. The details are personal, creative and unexpected. I painted, journaled, picked lettuce and herbs from the biodynamic garden, and after a couples massage we relaxed with a foot soak while watching a Great Horned Owl in the garden. Breakfast was also much more substantial than expected, with fresh juice, chia yogurt, eggs, avocado, fruit, nuts and banana bread delivered in a picnic basket. We added salmon and were full until late afternoon. There is plenty to do nearby, but that is almost beside the point. Between the gardens, beautiful rooms, the creativity station with flower pressing and dish garden making, the lounge library,all the healthy food and quiet creative experiences, the Inn feels like a true oasis. For someone who usually measures a trip by how much I can fit into it, one of the best parts of this one was not leaving.

The negatives: If you like mildew smell on the linens, then this place is for you. They smell like the linens were left in the washer too long and then dried. We couldn't get rid of the smell from our pajamas. There's no onsite staff to get this corrected. The rooms do not have central air conditioning so many windows are open and there's a window fan. This means you hear all the noise outside. There's a train that runs all night long. Finally there was a loud humming sound that kept me up all night. Sounds like a condenser or something .

You get a parking spot and a key code to your door. Once inside you are greeted with a place that needs major work. The carpet is old and stained. The bed is really high off the ground and the furniture is worn. Because there is no air conditioning you have to open the windows, stripping away any perceived privacy. We were surrounded by other rooms, we either didn't have any neighbors or they were really quiet. I was able to hear someone talking through the wall as a mumble, but that went away. Because of the seemingly thin walls I avoided watching the laughably small and awkwardly hung t.v. The worst part was the bathroom which because of the ac situation makes you open a window that stares directly at the door of your neighbor. They do have a nice enough lobby area with some coffee and snacks as well as a good place to sit an enoy them. The location is the selling point, very close to the beach and a few blocks away from downtown, I didn't use a car while there. That was great. They also have a really cool rooftop hangout area with chairs to sit and relax. For what it's worth, my wife liked this place more then I did.

I could have taken an hour-long shower (I didn't, of course, but I wanted to). Nice touches around the room. Slippers, robes, a record player. Very well curated decor. It's a really cute space! Absolutely lovely rooftop with ample seating to take in the views. Directly across the street from the beach. Very close to great food options, a grocery store, ice cream, and a nice brewery. On-site garage (there is plenty of street parking all around too) with a discounted rate if you book it online. Meh: Stairs to all the levels. This wasn't a deal breaker or anything, but I would have been annoyed if I had bigger bags. Cons: Our door stuck (it's an outside door in a beach town, so that's 100% normal), but it was loud to close and probably annoyed our neighbors. Their doors were also very loud and startled us a few times during the night. Teeny tiny parking spaces in the private parking garage. I wish the bathroom fan was better. The bathroom mirror was unusable for at least 25 mins after a shower because it stayed too humid. There were supposed to be breakfast pastries and juice in the mornings, but I never saw these things. I asked about it when we checked out, and the person at the desk said we just needed to ask for them in the office each morning. I had anticipated a visible setup in the office based on my discussion with the person at check-in. A better explanation would have been helpful.
