We had an awesome time staying at this home. It had all the amenities of home. The cleanliness was perfect. We loved the beach toys, boogie boards ect. My daughter was competing in the Oceanside Ironman so comfortable beds were important. This home didn’t disappoint. A small note that should be addressed by the city is a cover for a hole right outside the garage. Our daughter stepped back and tripped on it. She was fine but it could have been bad. We will definitely stay with you again. Such a beautiful home.

Vacuum unusable due to full bag which stunk. No dust pan in house. So I couldn’t remove the sand on the floor. Disappointed when I requested a new bag on Monday afternoon and received a email saying they had to get permission from the owner to drop off one. One was delivered the afternoon before we left.

Ocean getaway home
Great location just a few minutes walk to pier and shops/eatery. Thursday was highlight of our trip for the sunset market and farmer's market. So conveniently close didn't have to worry about parking and drop of shopping goods. Family felt really relaxedAnd enjoyed the easy pace the locals have and great for our furry baby too, so much for her to walk /visit as well. Would definitely come back again to get away from the hustle bustle city life. I actually like that we were away just 30 minute drive from san diego and could enjoy the tourist stuff from the distance. at home instead beds and layout of hime
Excellent Stay - Clean, Convenient, and Well-Equipped!
We recently stayed at this property over Christmas and had a fantastic experience! The cleanliness was exceptional—everything from the floors to the bathrooms was spotless, which made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. The appliances were all in excellent condition; the house had everything we needed, from a modern stove to a washer and dryer, making it easy to cook and relax. We also enjoyed having a bbq grill and a fire pit.
The location of the property was perfect, with easy access to local attractions, restaurants, and shops. It’s in a quiet, peaceful area, yet everything we wanted to explore was just a short walk away, including the beach and pier.
Customer service was also outstanding. The property management was incredibly responsive and attentive, answering all my questions promptly. Check-in and check-out were seamless, and we felt well taken care of throughout our stay.
Overall, this property exceeded our expectations, and we would definitely stay here again! Highly recommended for anyone looking for a comfortable, convenient, and well-maintained vacation rental.

Great Thanksgiving Rental
We were able to host family overnight in the 3 king bedrooms, as well as around the large dining room table.
It was an easy walk to the beach or to nearby restaurants and coffee shops.
We'll be back!

Oceanside Steal !
Really a wonderful property ! Spacious with a functional layout and flow. Located in very upscale and comfortable neighborhood, close walking proximity to main beaches and shopping though just enough off the beaten track to feel residential and void of the tourist buzz! I hope to return, shortly~
