About this property

Beachfront End-unit Cottage with whitewater ocean views and private entrance

Renovated in 2022 - all new paint in coastal colors, new carpets, new appliances and more...Beachfront upper, end unit cottage with amazing white water ocean, river, harbor and mountain views from living area and master bedroom. Private entrance with no common areas (unlike hotels or interior units at North Coast Village), fully equipped kitchen, secluded beach, large resort style heated pool and hot tub. Two extra windows in the living area and a skylight in each bathroom give this cottage in North Coast Village lots of natural light (only found in the few end unit upper level cottages). The cottage's private entrance is only a few steps up from the luscious grounds, and you can leave the door open for more light and a nice ocean breeze. The kids can play on the beach or the yard next to cottage, and you watch them while relaxing inside or on the deck. North Coast Village's family friendly, resort-like setting has 24/7 security with garage parking and every amenity including extensive tropical gardens, fitness center, putting green, table tennis, billiards, hot tubs, beautiful heated pools, and laundry facilities. Boogie boards, towels, chairs and umbrella for your use are included. Sit by the cozy fireplace, or on the deck to watch the sunset over the ocean, and enjoy the flickering harbor lights. Kitchen is fully equipped for eating in or take a leisurely walk to the restaurants and shops at the harbor.

December ‘23 and January ‘24 guests please note: exterior work to remove and replace siding for the entire building (14 units) will take place through December. Exterior painting will occur in January. Scaffolding will be up and crew will work weekdays 7am-5pm. It maybe noisy at times between 9 and 3pm, but since this is an upper end unit the crew will spend a lot of their time working on the units at the other end of the building. The scaffolding and work will not obstruct the ocean views and guests will still have full use of the patio. Rates are already reduced to compensate for the construction.

Could Use Some Improvements. The property had potential, but it wasn’t as clean as we had hoped, and several items weren’t working properly. While the location was fine, the overall experience was a bit disappointing compared to what we've experienced in other units at this location.

The location of the unit was amazing and the ocean views were enjoyed every night. The unit had plenty of beach equipment that our family appreciated. We also had plenty of clean towels and sheets.The unit was a bit dated and had some broken items. The window shutters were broken on some windows, the garbage disposal did not work and the crib provided in the unit was very dirty. Overall these things were minor and did not negatively impact our trip but they probably should be addressed.

Great beach vacation with resort amenities

This property was exactly what we were looking for - walking to a great beach with all the extras like beach chairs/umbrella/boogie boards etc so we didn’t have to bring all that! Walking to the harbor, pier, playground and ice cream. The house was very comfortable and had everything we needed plus lots of extras too.

Beautiful view overlooking the harbor

We have been staying in north coast village for 26 years now. In that time we have rented many units. This one is in the list of my favorites! The property owner is extremely helpful and responsive. And the other huge plus to note is that all the beds and pillows are very comfortable! This is not the case so much of the time but this unit truly felt like a home away from home. Beautiful bathrooms a nice kitchen and all the beach equipment you would need! I highly recommend this unit!

Great stay

Stay was great and we would be happy to come back. My mother was amazed at how nice the place was, and I was surprised to hear her comment as such so many times. My kids loved being so close to the beach. The kitchen was well appointed, clean, and everything worked. Patio was great to catch the ocean breeze, and the complex grounds are beautiful and well-designed to create seclusion and privacy. Koi pond was a major draw for my kids and others that stopped by. There was construction going on in some of the center garden area, but it never disturbed us. We had a little trouble getting on to WiFi, and the owner immediately responded with help. Great trip to Oceanside - thank you!

Best vacation ever!

Oceanside was so awesome! Everything about the condo was easy, we could see the beach, walk to the beach less than 5 min And the harbor less than 10. Delicious food! So much fun, Amazing activities, dolphin watching, parasailing, bogey boards, etc etc etc. And the fireworks!! We could see so many fireworks for like three hours right from our balcony! They were lighting them off all up the way and we had the best view! So memorable for everyone. Kids, adults, teen. And LEGOLAND was led than 15 min away and that was really neat. So much to say. Property manager was informative and friendly, I can’t say enough wonderful things about this place. We’ll definitely be back.

My stay in Michael's condo was great! We've been going to North Coast Village for over 20 years every summer and this condo was very enjoyable. Being an end unit you have plenty of natural light. The beds were cozy and the updates to the condo make it very enjoyable. I would highly recommend staying here! Can't wait to come back.

Amazing Views & Spectacular Property

We stayed for 4 nights. North Coast Village is spectacular. The grounds are a tropical paradise with great amenities, including pools, hot tubs, pool table, putting green, and parking garage. The beautiful cottage where we stayed also had boogie boards, skim boards, an umbrella, 4 beach chairs, beach towels, and a completely stocked kitchen. We plan on going back to stay there again ASAP.

Wow! Best choice ever!

I cannot say enough good things about this property. First of all North coast Village is like staying at a resort. The amenities are awesome, location crazy. You have the harbor on one side and the beach/Strand on the other. And then the cottage is nicely decorated lots of amenities provided. The host is communicative, helpful, and a joy to work with.

North Coast Village

The grounds of North Coast village were beautiful and well taken care of. Check-in was easy and fast. The pool looked nice (we did not go in), there were also walking trails and the beach was very close! The unit was clean, but needs some updating. I found several small ants in the bedroom area. The mattresses in the two bedrooms were not the best and the couch and loveseat in the main sitting room were not very comfortable. The shower drain was backed up and had standing water. (the owner was informed) The unit was within walking distance to the Oceanside marina, where there were plenty of restaurants. and the unit was in a great spot!

About the host

Hosted by Michael O'Shea

Host profile image
Born and raised outside of Philadelphia, I moved to Southern California in 2007 because I loved the outdoors and surfing. I love staying at my cottage with the kids during the off-season when there aren't as many guests :) I live close to the cottage so I'm there a lot, and I can be there quickly if there is an issue during your stay.
