Our host was gracious and responsive- the location was awesome. Our only suggestion was it needs a few aesthetic improvements- decorative basics that women notice regarding some things that were not as shown in the photos.

The property is amazing! It’s right on the water, two spas, Cool Palapa on the boardwalk and plenty of place for your adult teens to hang out! Front property is huge, and its location is walking distance to everything! The owner Ray is very communicative and check-in was a breeze. We will definitely be back.

Amazing property! Wonderful host! Host thought of everything even toothbrushes and sunscreen. Even though we brought everything we needed if we had forgotten anything it was provided. Best nights sleep I've had. Definitely worth the money. I will definitely recommend to anyone I know headed that way and will rent again if I ever get out that way again!!!!

Our second summer here and loved it just as much!

Ray is great and check in is so easy. Ray is quick to respond and we just love this place. The front area with the hot tubs and the beach right across the street is our favorite! Grilling out front and enjoying the view is the best. We love Oceanside and will book here again next summer!

Great Central Location

The property is nicely located for quick trips to Carlsbad, San Diego and Cornado Island. The ocean view from the balcony was enjoyable and far enough away from The Strand that it was relatively quiet.

It was the perfect location to let the sound of the ocean drown out the stress. The establishment has a significant amount of its original architectural charm which is refreshing for this area.
