Carlsbad Village, Carlsbad

Grand mansions aren’t just for European nobility – this sprawling home on the outskirts of San Diego proves that. It embraces all the glamour and opulence of the Art Deco age with a full bar (inside and out) for sundowners, a Venetian-style entrance to the swimming pool terrace (the pool is fed by a waterfall) and myriad lounges inside decked out in mid-century splendour.

The Tide

Beach Barber Tract, San Diego

This chic home has the most incredible views of La Jolla and its pure blue skies, studded with leafy palm trees. With two super king-size bedrooms, there'll be no need to draw straws, though the mega modern four-poster bed does make for a special sanctuary.

Mission Beach, San Diego

You won’t get much closer to the beach than this San Diego villa, nudged up to the golden sands of South Mission. With panoramic sea views, you’re in a prime position for watching the sunset over the North Pacific Ocean from the beachfront terrace or balcony.
