Public Beach Access Update: Temporary Beacons Beach Trail Closure - Learn More

Surfhouse’s closest beach access, the Beacons Beach public access trail, has been temporarily closed. On May 2nd, there was a bluff failure that impacted the trail leading to Beacons Beach. Because the trail is temporarily impassable, the City of Encinitas has closed the viewpoint and use of the trail.

Fortunately, there are two other convenient public beach access points within walking and biking distance to Surfhouse. The two options include Grandview (0.9 miles) to the north, or Stone Steps (0.9 miles) to the south.

Both of these beaches are accessible via Neptune Ave, the one-way street one block west of Surfhouse. You can get to these beaches by walking down Neptune or taking one of our complimentary beach cruiser bicycles.

We are still offering beginner surf lessons and intermediate to advanced surf guiding for guests of the hotel. These include transportation and are a great way to explore other surf spots around town.

You are still able to surf Beacons, which you can access by walking along the beach from either the Stone Steps or Grandview public access points. You will also continue to have full access to all our great coffee shops, restaurants, bars and local retailers in our surrounding neighborhood.

If you have any questions, please feel free to give us a call at (760) 545-5033 or email us at nikkiharth@surfhouseadventures.com

    F.A.Q

    • What is your cancelation policy?

      • If you need to cancel more than 7 days prior to arrival, there is no penalty.

        If you cancel between 6 days and 3 days before arrival, we keep the 25% deposit that is taken when making the reservation, but you get that back in a voucher to be used towards a future reservation within 6 months of cancelation.

        If you cancel within 2 days of your arrival date, you are responsible for 100% of what the room rate would have been for your reservation.

    • Do you allow pets?
      • Yes, we do allow dogs, with an additional $50 fee per reservation
    • Are you close to the beach?
      • We are a 5 min walk to Beacons Beach. Which is a great family friendly beach, with some nice beginner to intermediate waves coming through!
    • Can we fit 3 people in a queen room?
      • We do have an air mattress or sleeping pad that we can set up in the room for you should you need room for a 3rd  person. This does need prior approval based on which room you are assigned to, and is an additional $30 per reservation charge to have it set up.
    • Do you allow kids at your property?
      • Yes of course! We love to host everyone at Surfhouse! One guest in the reservation does need to be over the age of 18.
    • What is the closest airport to Surfhouse?
      • San Diego Airport (SAN) is the best airport to fly into. It is about a 45 min drive from the airport to Surfhouse.
    • Do we need a rental car while staying at Surfhouse?
      • We do have 4 complimentary beach cruisers for Surfhouse guests, and we believe almost everything you need is a walk or a bike ride away! But if you are looking to explore more of San Diego, it is easier to either have a rental car, or ride-share around town, than to rely on public transit.
