Beautiful view inside and outside of ocean, and sunsets. Easy access to the beach, which is a 2 minute walk, and few stairs, or ramp, and you're on the sand. Both bedrooms have their own bathroom, enclosed patio for little ones safe yard for kids to play. Clean and convenient beach/coastal neighborhood.

    The property is simply stunning. There is not a better location. The owner was so wonderful and helpful. The amenities and instructions were impeccable. The bedrooms were so comfortable and the bathrooms amazing but the outdoor patio and yard area was the absolute deal maker. We are already planning our visit for next year.

So easy to get in and out, lovely beach not overcrowded, the property right on 101 and yet somehow so private!Everything needed for cooking, eating, relaxing in shared or private spaces. We could not have been happier. Nice provisions for playing at the beach with a wagon to get them there. A all around.

    We have stayed at many Carlsbad beach rentals over the years, but this is THE ONE. Photos cannot do justice to the experience of staying in a home that is so welcoming and comfortable. We seniors enjoyed the lovely decor, the well-thought-out appointments, the convenient parking, and the beautiful grounds. But the best of all are the fantastic views and the perfect location. Can’t do any better!

    This house was perfect! It was much larger than we expected, but it was exactly as shown in the pictures. The view out the living room window was wonderful. Our days were spent at the beach, out to dinner, and then back to this beautiful home to enjoy the views with a glass of wine in the evening. Thank you to Pam and her husband for making our stay wonderful. We hope to be back next year.

    Best decision I’ve ever made on VRBO! This house is a historic landmark that was renovated years ago. It was the PERFECT location for our vacation! A private home with 2 bedrooms and 2 1/2 bathrooms! We (my husband and I) stayed here with our two adult children (18 and 20) and had the time of our lives. We surfed, had a BBQ, hung out at the beach, watched cable TV, sat by the fire pit on the deck and ate at all of our favorite restaurants. We also went fishing in a nearby lagoon. Everything is within walking distance. This house has a private parking space to the left of the garage so we never had to worry about parking if we left to go somewhere. Pam and Al were amazing hosts! They literally have everything in the house that you could possibly need: chip clips, griddle, stain remover for clothing, etc. We will definitely be back! You can rent a 335 sq ft room at a resort in Carlsbad for 400 a night or you can rent this private beachside house right on the ocean for the week at a reasonable price. We are SO glad we found this place! I cannot say enough wonderful things about the memories we made here. Just incredible!

    This is the largest and most well-appointed house we've rented in the North County area so far. Incredible view from the front, a nice stroll from Carlsbad Village, and across the street from the beach are all added bonuses. Very well appointed kitchen, great appliances, I can't think of a single negative. Great communication from the hosts.

The hosts were so phenomenal and accommodating to any need we could have thought of. The time flew by so quickly that we were saddened to leave.

    I was disconcerted to see that 50 yards to the sand meant that you have to cross a 4-lane road to get to the beach. The space is lovely and immaculate and perfect, except for the non-mention of the road.

    We loved the location of this house so close to the beach and the window in the living room was the cherry on top! What a great place to reset and have a perfect set up for conversation and rest! The listing said there was a hot tub, it wasn’t important to us but maybe that should be updated.

    My adult family of 5 stayed for the week and it was the perfect location and home for our son's wedding in the area. Vigiluccis is on the same block and is an excellent restaurant. It is close to Carlsbad Village shops and eating establishments. Try 264 Fresco too. The owners are close and were very accomodating. We absolutley loved our stay and highly recommend. Location, location and location. Parking was also easy for 2 vehicles. Kitchen has everything you need. Thank you Al and Pam for a perfect home away from home.

    First of all the owner of the property was warm and welcoming. The location was great the view and proximity to the beach and the walking area along it was fantastic. The actual home was clean well stocked with dishes and utensils and the living are was comfortable. If I had any issue, and it’s only mine was the steps within the units to get from the living/kitchen area to the bedrooms and bathroom, i have a bad back. But that was a minor inconvenience that didn’t impact the enjoyment of the property
