THE DEEP DIVE
All BeachHauses are engineered for simple, easy living. All BeachHauses feature self check-in and check-out. They're stocked with beach toys, beach towels, bath towels, laundry detergent, shampoo, conditioner, olive oil, and cooking-ready kitchens.

See that art? It's local. That day's worth of coffee waiting to get you going? BeachHaus brew. This is our original BeachHaus--loved and updated--so step into our world and stroll out two minutes to the beach. Splash in the water, laze in the sun, come back to a signature outdoor shower. Designed by a surf family for all families: we've lived in this space and loved it, and now spruced it up for you. Do come through! A shared front yard, private side yard, and gorgeous California waves await you. This is part of a duplex, so the garage with laundry is shared. If you would like to book both duplexes together, they’re listed under “Joint Beach Bungalow”. Del Mar is your ideal beach town, with swanky shopping walking distance up the hill, parks and beaches galore, and the famous Del Mar racetrack and Fairgrounds just a stone’s throw away.

Great stay in Del Mar with my dog

I spent Labor Day week in the Del Mar cottage with my dog. The cottage is located an easy walk to dog beach and all the restaurants in Del Mar. We had a great time and look forward to coming back to visit again.
