About this house rental
LISTING DESCRIPTION
Bring the dog and leave the car. Our fully renovated 'Manchester Front' bungalow has a private fenced yard, a shared outdoor hot shower for rinsing off sandy paws, and a shed stocked with surfboards, boogie boards, beach chairs, umbrellas, and wagons. Walk 2 minutes to town for cafés, restaurants, and Seaside Market, then a few more to the beach. Inside: a king bed plus two twins, a fully stocked kitchen, AC, gigabit fiber wifi, and 4K TVs with YouTube TV.
THE BUNGALOW
Fully renovated, with designer furnishings throughout and a kitchen stocked with everything you need to cook a real meal. Split-system AC and heat keep it comfortable on hot summer days, and all bath, kitchen, and laundry supplies are provided.
STREAMING & WORK
AT&T fiber internet with 1 Gbps upload and download, plus a dedicated workspace. 4K TVs in the living room and primary bedroom come with full YouTube TV (Sports Plus, Entertainment, and 4K packages) and Apple TVs with 1,000+ movies. You'll also find Bluetooth bedside clocks with USB charging, a central charging station, and a portable Bluetooth speaker for the yard or the beach.
OUTDOORS
The fully enclosed private yard has a sunning patio, an outdoor dining area, and a BBQ grill just off the kitchen. Out back is a covered laundry room with a stacked LG washer/dryer and a dedicated dog relief area behind it. A shared outdoor hot shower for people and pups sits between the front and back bungalows.
THE SPORTS SHED
Surfboards, boogie boards, beach chairs and towels, umbrellas, sand toys, sand wagons, and Yeti-style coolers, all yours to use during your stay.
THE NEIGHBORHOOD
The bungalow sits on a quiet street, a 2-minute walk from the heart of Cardiff: restaurants, cafés, wine bars, boutiques, yoga studios, salons, the library and post office, and local favorite Seaside Market. Great surfing and beaches are just beyond. Hop the Coaster to downtown San Diego for the day, or drive a short way to hike the bluffs at Torrey Pines, snorkel La Jolla Cove, catch the races at Del Mar, or see a Padres game.

10 / 10Outstanding·Jun 2026
Manchester Front was spectacular! It was our home for nearly 3 weeks. The space was clean, well appointed with hi-end appliances, and the bed was super comfy! Everything you could think of was provided. The outdoor area was gorgeous and well maintained. Our dogs felt at home and were able to use the yard area because it is entirely fenced in. The proximity to restaurants, shops, Seaside Market, and the beach was amazing. The Coastal Rail Trail was an easy walk from the bungalow. We loved everything about our stay and are sad to leave! Thank You Keith and Stacey!
8 / 10Excellent·Apr 2026
This little hideaway was very well located, just a short walk to grocery, cafes, etc. and also convenient to the beach. A big plus is the tropical oasis that is the outdoor space. Very private for reading, having a meal or just hanging out. Keith was a very good and responsive host. He and his wife really helped us feel at home. Check-in was personal and informative and everything was very clean and well organized.
