Right on the north end of Pacific Beach of San Diego, this home is a seaside getaway, Cali-style. A classic coastal clapboard-syle home in navy blue, there are three bedrooms – including a lavish master suite and a kid’s bunk room for fun-filled sleepovers. It’s the ideal spot for long family getaways in the sun. Your host has thought of everything you might need; from a stocked kitchen to beach equipment for the kids and bikes for exploring the boardwalk. After long days on the beach, there’s nothing better than being able to simply stroll back to your home (it’s only a ten-minute walk) and flop down on that plush sectional, queue up a film on the entertainment centre, or just enjoy a cocktail in the private, sunny garden. We’ll drink to that.

Home truths:
* The home sleeps eight, but this includes the four spaces in the kid’s bunkbeds
* The host, has updated some of the furnishings since photos were taken
* The home doesn’t have air conditioning
