Encinitas is a little town located on the Pacific Ocean about 20 minutes north of San Diego airport. It's just like a 1960's California beach town. Hand made jewelery shops, the world famous Swami's Mediation Retreat, more than two dozen yoga studios and spas, a dozen Mexican take-out restaurants, and locals and tourists alike walking around with surf boards give Encinitas a 1960's feeling.
The lovely suites at Ann's Inn At Moonlight Beach are decorated like the rooms you'd find in a French Country Inn. Each suite has a private bath and refrigerator. What makes Ann's Inn really special is that she bakes her guests delicious home-made, warm-from-the-oven cakes and pastries along with their breakfasts every morning.
Visitors at the Inn can begin their day at the beach and walk for miles in either direction at sunrise, then return for a delicious, complimentary breakfast. World famous Swami's Beach - made famous by The Beach Boys - is a delightful 15 minute walk south along the sandy beach.
Ann's guests awaken each morning to the sweet sounds of a meditative waterfall. They can drift back to sleep, have an early cup of coffee, or seize the day with a morning walk to Moonlight Beach as the unique beach town of Encinitas awakens.
If you choose some strenuous early morning exercise, you can then return to the Inn at Moonlight Bach and relax - you've earned it! - with a cup of fresh Starbucks coffee and the morning newspaper in Ann's sunny, cheery breakfast room. If you prefer, you may enjoy your breakfast outside in the sunshine on one of the lovely decks and porches.
After sunset, guests can take a romantic moonlit walk on the beach or simply relax on the Inn's front porch and sip a glass of wine, enjoying the evening twilight over the ocean and the little "lost-in-time" town of Encinitas. When they're ready for bed, guests can snuggle down into their fine cotton bed linens, down-filled pillows and comforters and let the calming songs of the outside waterfall lull them to sleep.
Encinitas is a wonderful place to live and to visit. No other beach town in the San Diego area has such a great selection of restaurants from Mexican take-out to fine Italian dining. If you come to visit, bring your appetite!
