Ocean close apartment UnitB
Space was beautiful and Wendy was super helpful! We stay in Oceanside every February and I would certainly stay here again!

Steps from the SAND private suite on Peninsula
Great host! Communicative, friendly. Would definitely rent from again.

Stunning Private 1 Bdrm Beach Apartment w/AC
A gem! I stayed here for a little "me getaway" for my birthday. There are just 4 houses between this airbnb and the beach, it took me 52 seconds to walk from the gate to the sand. Well appointed kitchen, everything was clean and smelled great. Windows in very room w/particularly great natural light in the bedroom... lovely to feel the warm sun in the comfy bed in the mornings. Good window shades to block out light if you prefer. The bathroom is super cute w/little hotel style toiletry bottles provided. There's good temperature control with a heater, A/C and easy to open windows for a cool ocean breeze. Great beaches, parks, restaurants, coffee shops in the area; I found it to be very quiet and serene - you're ensconced behind a gate and walking path so it feels very private and safe. Free street parking. I was not missing a single thing and host was communicative, gave clear and helpful instructions, and had some thoughtful personal touches in the airbnb. Would return in a heartbeat!

Studio Oceanview King in Beachfront Apt (207)
Great stay at Marabella! The views were stunning from our room! Located right on the water, walking distance from many shops and restaurants. The patio was nice and grounds were well kept and clean. The beach chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards and outdoor shower was definitely appreciated. It was perfect!

RENOVATED Bungalow Steps to Beach, Shops & Dining
I had an amazing stay at this property! The location is absolutely perfect, just a short walk to the beach, shops, and a great selection of restaurants. The space itself was spotless and beautifully maintained. Everything felt fresh and inviting from the moment I arrived. The beds were incredibly comfortable, which made it so easy to relax and get a great night’s sleep after a day of exploring. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for the perfect beach getaway!

Seaside Beach Villa - Studio Apartment on the sand
What a wonderful stay with a beautiful beach front! Parking wasn’t too bad although we had to walk a bit each night which is due to our fault leaving early morning and coming back at 11-12 at night so of course closer parking is not expected but there is a nice area to ensure we can park temporarily for luggage unloading etc. The shower was absolutely amazing and I always looked forward to taking one! Kim was an amazing host and very responsive! I def recommend and would 100% go back!

Forty feet from Pacific Ocean
This was our second time staying at Matthew’s and once again it did not disappoint. As a host and person, Matthew is a gem. He’s so kind and ready to help but is so respectful of space. The surrounding area is so beautiful and the most peaceful area you will find. My wife and I go there to unwind and it equally meets both of our needs. She loves to listen to the ocean and I love to sit outside and see it. Whenever we want to plan a getaway, this will be our spot.

Ruby Relaxation. SLP # 13236
Given that the second bathroom in outside with a quick walk down side of house, it was lovely and big. Yes, the home is older but extra cozy. The beds were good and small kitchen perfect for cooking. Could use one more serving bowl. Location was divine! short walk to Marine Street and ferry. A quiet, lovely street. We loved the french doors and half doors to let a beach breeze circulate. Washer and dryer were convenient. Parking always available on street. Granted, it is not brand new but had all we needed. Could not have enjoyed ourselves more. We would definitely love to return in the future.

3bd Beach House A Strand of Paradise
Came here for our family Spring Break get away! We all had a wonderful time! The view is way better in person and the waves crashing at night meant a peaceful nights sleep! Highly recommend for families or group getaways! Fully stocked kitchen was an added bonus!

The Anchor House
My daughters and I stayed at Darren's over the holiday and could not have picked a better home. The location was perfect. From the ocean being steps away to fabulous restaurants and shopping within easy walking distance. The house confused me a bit at first as I thought the listing said "entire house" so just know it's the downstairs unit. But it's exactly as the pictures show. It has a perfect beach bungalow feel and is very cozy. Everything we needed was already there from kitchenware to shower products and even a hair dryer but most importantly for that area- a parking spot! it's a tight fit but it's a lifesaver. AND- Darren was a great host. He was so communicative. We never had an emergency but I have zero doubt that if we did he would have been available to take care of it. we will definitely be back!

Beach House 2 King Suites+Sleeper, Steps to Sand
This property lived up to everything promised and more. It was clean (and I am picky!), well located, and easy to access by following the detailed instructions. Our guests, as well as ourselves, were comfortable with the beds and furnishings. The kitchen was well stocked and the towels, linens, and little extras were all appreciated. All of us that stayed had no problem with the stairs. If anyone planning to visit has mobility issues, you might want to look elsewhere, but that is the ONLY reason not to book a stay at this wonderful Air B&B. Also, nearby parking was not in issue for our guest who parked nearby on a clearly marked public street (not in the alley behind the property). Thanks Clifton!

Gorgeous Oceanfront Mansion Private Sand Fire Ring
The house is beautiful, lots of room for 5 women. Wonderful to be right in the ocean, sunsets,

Laguna Beach Coastal Cottage - Steps to the Beach!
Location and house couldn’t be better for great day time activities. Our kids loved it (15 yo) they were able to safely go about their days independently. House was beautiful, airy, bright. As stated in some reviews bring earplugs for the primary as it faces a busy street and by 7am it gets noisy. But we’ll be back. Totally worth it.

Original Beachfront on the Boardwalk Newport Home
Great stay. Perfect location for us. We had a great time. Everything was as described and we never had to contact the host for anything.

Ocean Breeze with ease, near Carlsbad Village
Great place to stay at. In walking distance of the beach, and Carlsbad Village. Great place for a weekend getaway. Quiet neighborhood.

Immaculate Oceanfront Condo | Beach Parking!
My husband and I were in Oceanside to watch our son compete in the Ironman and this location was absolutely perfect. It was clean and comfortable and Nick’s communication before during and after our stay was excellent. Cross the street to the Ocean, take a short walk to the pier and plenty of great restaurants. Would stay here again!

Short Steps to Beach Quiet 2 Bed 2 Bath Condo
My son and I loved our two nights at Dalma’s beach getaway. Everything was more than we could ask for, from our host’s friendliness, to the beautifully clean space, to the proximity to the beach and town. The beds were incredibly comfy and the common spaces were terrific. The space is even better than the photos. Dalma is a fantastic host. She answered my questions, welcomed us with a bottle of wine, and accommodated us with a late check out. Next time I visit my son in LA, we’ll take the train to Oceanside. The train is super convenient, but don’t worry, you can’t hear it at all. We’ll definitely book Dalma’s space again.

#3, Ocean Front Studio by the Beach in Carlsbad
We loved being so close to the beach and so close to Carlsbad Village; once we parked our car we walked everywhere. So nice to have designated parking, too. The place was very nice, queen bed super comfortable. The pullout bed was not as comfortable, but after layering the sofa seat cushions on the 2nd night it was much better. Everything was very clean, the kitchen was fully stocked, bedding and towels were high quality. We would definitely choose this unit again. We found it remarkably quiet despite being so close to everything. The team at Sea Breeze is VERY responsive, but even with that we had a couple of questions that never got answered. That did not impact our enjoyment. We walked to State Street and had an amazing breakfast at Wildland followed by some good boutique shopping, then ice cream at Handels; a great rooftop dinner during happy hour at Fresco, and the rest of the time we stayed right on our deck or on the beach at Sea Breeze. Can’t wait to do it again!

Stunning Modern Ocean View Condo
Everything was wonderful. Beautiful condo, beautiful view, tons of amenities, location was great. Could not have been any better.

E107- Ocean & Harbor Views, North Coast Village
Tiffany responded so fast to ask my messages. I am so grateful we found this place! We were able to walk to the Harbor park everyday and enjoy the sunset out our window. The pool was very clean and the hot tubs are actually hot! The most impressive part was how beautifully kept the grounds were and the area was maintained professionally. Everybody who worked there was very respectful and kind. I really like visiting here.

Hamilton Cove Panoramic Ocean View Condo #2/32
This was our second trip to Catalina but our first time staying in Hamilton Cove. We will definitely come back. The location has so many amenities but downtown is still easily accessible by golf cart. We took full advantage of the pool, hot tub, tennis courts and private beach. Trevor’s place had all of the sports equipment you might need which was really nice and the view is stunning.

Luxurious and Spacious Condo steps from the Beach
Abraham was a great host. Excellent communication. The place was wonderful and just steps to the beach. We would definitely stay there again. We were told the place came with multiple boogie boards, there was only one there when we arrived. I messaged Abraham to let him know and within a couple hours he had delivered 2 more boogie boards for us. Very proactive and excellent! The resort area pools/hot tubs and other amenities were very nice also.

Penthouse B: Luxury w Rooftop deck & Ocean View!
Great Oceanside resort retreat. The location is hard to beat with the ocean only steps away. Resort has a great pool and hot tub area as well as an adult only hot tub for those that want to enjoy kid free. Add in the gym and recreation area, this resort truly has everything you need. The Airbnb is well stocked including beach towels and some beach gear. For the beach, just be aware of Oceanside's sand restoration project. The North side of the river is still good though.
