Perfect Escape Beach Bungalow w/ private pool and hot tub. 5 min walk to beach.

This property has the feel of a warm embrace. The host’s touches to make us feel welcome did just that and for me,a first time VRBO user, put me at ease. She was also promptly responsive to our inquiries. Will stay again if the opportunity arises. Proximity to public transport is excellent. Easily a 10 minute walk to the beach,

Our family stayed in July 2024. House was wonderful, well maintained and furnished. The backyard was a big hit--especially for my grandchildren ages 8 and 6. Host was very kind and helpful. We would definitely stay again!

I originally booked a different property in April that was located in Vista from August 13-19th. Unfortunately, the Host of the Vista property cancelled our reservation on August 8th because the Sheriffs were called on August 7th and they shut him down... I immediately searched for another property around Oceanside that had a pool, would allow 5 adults, 2 dogs, and our 16 month old grandson. Luckily I found this property -- Tracie was the most responsive and amazing Host we've ever had. She even left a very basket full of treats, and a nice note which was unexpected. The house was fully stocked with everything we could possibly need. There were even pool toys, bicycles and boogie boards available for guests to use. The pool, yard and hot tub were beautifully maintained and the perfect temperature. My family and dogs loved every minute of our stay. The house is within walking distance of the beach, several restaurants and a bicycle path. Thanks again Tracie, for letting us stay in your wonderful home!

Excellent property with so many amenities. Communication with the owner was excellent and I preferred that over a property management company.

We really enjoyed this home. It was very comfortable and well equipped. They even supply everything you need for the beach and the welcome basket was such a nice touch. Neighborhood is very quiet and safe. The pool and spa was great and well maintained.

Tracie was amazing from start to finish and went above and beyond in giving us a warm welcome with a great treat basket with something for everyone. Her house is full to the brim with anything you’d need. We had 4 babies / toddlers and there were plenty of beach toys, pool floats, and amenities in the kitchen for them already there! This house is a one stop shop for families in the sense you don’t really need to leave because it has everything you’d want! We thought it was even better in person than the pics. Our stay was ‘cooler’ than some weeks (highs around 72) but even then the pool temp was perfect and never too cold to go swimming. The toddlers were obsessed with the slide and she even had 3 infant life vests there for us to use. We used the wagon a ton for our day trips and ate so many oranges and lemons from the property that were delicious! Although we couldn’t ‘walk’ to the beach with our littles, it’s super close and the beach and playground were perfect for our kiddos. So many close restaurants and coffee shops and like a 5 min drive to super cute downtown Carslbad as well. It really has it all. I don’t see how there is any way you could be disappointed in any aspect of this home/ location. It’s truly a gem!

Our family had an amazing time at this property. This home had everything that you could possibly need. We will definitely be back! :)

It was great place to stay. We had some hesitation for train track near by, but no bells or whistles from train at night and sound is muffled by track in trench (only cargo train in the middle of the day was noticeable). Backyard was great with spa and saltwater pool. Slide on pool is steeper than typical, but my kid (6 y.o.) had blast. Great WiFi service and speed also. Buccaneer Park is close walking distance with great spot for dogs or kids to use those unlimited energy. We will definitely consider this place again for next time we are in this area.

We had a wonderful time at this property. The home was very clean and the hosts are incredibly responsive and accommodating. There were a few things I wish I had paid closer attention to when booking- specifically, the pool is not heated and the water is rather cold. Unfortunately, our kids didn't use the magnificent water slide outside just because we were there on a 70-degree week, so the water never warmed up enough. The other point to note is that the house does not have A/C. Again, we were there on a cooler week, so it didn't matter as much to us- but it's just something to note. Regardless of those two items, I would highly recommend this property to any larger families. The backyard landscape and set-up is unlike any other you will find in the San Diego area. The rooms are clean, well kept, and spacious. There is plenty of supplies to host perfect gatherings of all sizes. The beaches (and LegoLand) are very close by (drivable for sandy beaches) so it made it for a really nice stay for us.

Our host was wonderful. Super responsive and timely in getting back to us. All the children loved the pool, obviously, but it was easy stroll or van ride to the beach north of the pier. Only small thing that I would like to see if we returned was updated kitchen ware and appliances. Not a show stopper though. We made it work!
