Here are some things which you should know before booking Wander Encinitas Shores
🐦 A Quick Note on the Deck & Our Feathered Neighbors
At Wander Encinitas, we’re proud to offer stunning outdoor spaces perfect for soaking in the sun, ocean breeze, and coastal views. That said, the deck also happens to sit along a high-traffic flight path for birds.
It’s not uncommon for large flocks to pass overhead throughout the day, especially in the mornings and late afternoons. While we ensure the deck and furniture are cleaned prior to each guest’s arrival, occasional bird droppings may appear during your stay. Unfortunately, this is one of those natural quirks of being close to the coast and surrounded by wildlife.
Thank you for your understanding—and we hope you enjoy the peaceful, breezy perch, feathered flyovers and all.
Perched on a 150 ft cliff, the views at the side patio around the back of the home are dangerous for kids. You may appreciate the one-of-a-kind views from the fenced deck or roof cabana.
Quiet hours are from 9 PM to 8 AM. We kindly ask that you refrain from hosting parties or creating excessive noise during your stay, as we strive to maintain a peaceful environment for both our guests and neighbors. Amplified outdoor sounds are strictly prohibited.
