Family retreat

We travel somewhere every year during the holidays and rent a house with my family of 8, which includes my mom. Everyone agreed that out of the 9yrs we’ve been doing this, this was their favorite house. The location is perfect, directly across from the beach so perfect for families. The corner store is a block away and don’t forget the local Beachcomber bar down the street made for a fun and easy vacation. We never expected so much charm and kind people in Oxnard. Great vacation! Thank you!

The gem of Oxnard!

We booked this last min and LOVED it! The location is amazing! So close to the beach and we could see the sunset from the house. Very responsive host. The kitchen is beautifully updated and all the bathrooms were very clean. Parking was a little confusing, but it worked out. We had a blast!

Why they chose this property

Combined with the area's mild climate, the beaches make Silver Strand one of the area's finest recreation destinations. Surfing, swimming, boating, water-skiing, volleyball, and picnicking are popular activities. Anglers can fish for perch, corbina, grunion and yellow-fin croaker.

Silver Strand Beach or typically referred to as the "Strand" by the local surfing community sits next to Channel Island Harbor with year round sun and activities right outside the front door.
