With 3900 square feet of both indoor and outdoor living space, this is a magical spot for a large family gathering or a group of friends with children. With its lush garden, curling pillars and charming courtyard, Fables & Myths oozes a romantic serenity that is carefully balanced with bold colours and modern furnishings to take this home into the twenty-first century. Offering plenty of space indoors and outdoors, a large group will be well looked after here, especially with the home’s fabulous resort-like pool and jacuzzi area. Balance entertaining the kids with a relaxing time for the adults with nothing but ease, as the conveniently placed kids pool and outdoor playground is within viewing distance from the garden's bar and lounging areas. Once the kids are in bed, choose from an after-hours game of poker at poker table, or opt for a more relaxed game of pool – both located in the games room. We wouldn’t blame you if you spent the entirety of your trip on the grounds of the home, but if you do decide to head out, there's lots going on. Nestled into the pristine neighbourhood of Carlsbad Lagoon, you’re just a short five-minute drive away from Tamarack Surf Beach and all of Carlsbad’s wonderful restaurants and bars.
