Wonderful family weekend!
The beach retreat, a 1920s craftsman, is completely renovated and updated with modern amenities. Very quiet neighborhood, just a walk away from the beach and tranquil once inside. The home is very comfortable, with an understated elegance, especially the kitchens and bathrooms. Well stocked kitchen for serious cooks and patios and decks to enjoy the outdoors and the beautiful ocean breezes. Our family had a wonderful time at the beach, at the home and in and around Oceanside. Would come back again.

This house was beautiful, clean! Just a couple of blocks from the beach. 20 people stayed here and we had plenty of room. Everything we needed was already there . Thank you for a great stay we hope we can do it again soon!

Disliked: Communication
Unprofessional communication
The location was great, house was overall clean and nice. A couple of concerns were; Dusty furniture, dirty floors in some of the rooms, front room fan and light would turn on by itself, the gate to take the trash bin out was locked so we had to lift it over the fence, had to buy trash bags for the house as they only supplied 2, the grill was extremely greasy, and burners are low and difficult to cook on. The communication from either the property manager or owner (not sure who we were talking to) from the 702 phone number was EXTREMELY unprofessional and rude. We received a text message long after we had left accusing us of still being at the property followed by unprofessional choice of words and not a way you would speak to a customer. (They could have simply asked if we were at the property still and had a decent conversation) We had an additional charge on our card without an explanation until I reached out to ask why. The reason and information that was given to us was false and wish we would have taken pictures before we left. When I reached out regarding the extra charge, the reply was again unprofessional, immature and rude through "text" and e-mail. (They could have explained in a professional way what the additional charges are for and we would have no problem paying) I have never had an issue renting vacation rentals until now with how we were treated. Really quite unfortunate. Would recommend the home overall, but HIGHLY advise you to take plenty of pictures upon departing so false information cannot be made up along with unprofessional treatment.

Oceanside Beach House Rental
This was our second time staying in this charming rental house. We love this comfortable house and the great area where it is located. The house has large living and dining areas where we had plenty of room to visit, eat and play games with our grown children and their families. The bedrooms are comfortable with lots of sleeping space. There is nice barbecue to use on the patio and an upper patio deck that is our favorite place to hang out in the evenings. It is a short walk from the house to a great beach and there are lots of little stores and small restaurants nearby where you can shop or get a bite to eat. We appreciate the owners who are quick to respond if needed and are very helpful. This rental house will continue to be on the top of our list of places to go for our family vacation!

Lovely Home :)
This home and the entire experience was excellent. Great places to eat close by. Love the room lay out. Bunk beds were perfect for my 3 kids. Master bedroom has a tub you and your kids can swim in lol. Love the wood floors. Awesome bikes that come with rental. Wagons and all the beach toys were perfect! loaded them in the van and hit the beach very easy. Overall give this property a 5 star for location, cleanliness, and very comfy beds! Thank you Kathryn!

Perfect Family Getaway
This is the perfect beach house getaway, it's equipped with everything you need! Beach chairs, bikes, towels and plenty of space for everyone. The beach opened so it made for a great time as well as some restaurants and bars. Kathryn (host ) was so helpful with her quick response. Seriously a fantastic time. I would absolutely come back!!

Great for bigger families!
Kathryn was easy to communicate with and the property was beautiful. It was perfect for our family of 8 adults and three kids. A pack-n-play and high chair are available, which was a nice amenity that wasn’t mentioned in the listing. There’s plenty of gear for the beach! We loved being close enough to walk to the Sunset Market on Thursday, the beach, and the Oceanside Pier. The house is older, which means there are a few quirks and loads of charm. As far as the neighborhood, it’s family-friendly and far enough from downtown to not have many problems.

Just right!!!
This house is an amazing just right. Not to new to be uncomfortable with children in it. Not to old to be still very nice. Not to close to the beach but just the right walking distance so you are right there. The grill, the laundry, the space, the money you save with the beach supplies and the comfort you get from having them! Boogie boards, umbrellas, chairs, wagons and even the sandcastle kits. The outside shower is an amazing help on cleanup. So much space to relax. Oh, and the beds are amazing, good sleep, safe quiet neighborhood and comfortable feel. The family realy loved the rooftop patio! =) We hope to stay again.

About the host

Host profile image
We have been renting vacation homes for over 10 years now and love it! We love traveling this way and renting our homes out. With 7 children and now 14 grandchildren we understand family travel, and family needs!

Why they chose this property

The beach has been one of our favorite family vacations since our children were small. We are so pleased to be able to share the delights of Oceanside and San Diego county with all of you!

What makes this property unique

In addition to the charm and gorgeous details of an original, historic craftsman beach home, this home has fantastic outdoor spaces. The front porch, the back patio, and especially the brand new roof top patio just add to the delight of this centrally located home. Easy access to the beach, as well as to all of downtown Oceanside. You will not have to bring anything! At our home, all of the beach accessories you need, as well as beach cruisers, boogie boards, and a couple surf boards are all provided.

If you are staying in our Oceanside home and are looking for things to do or a cool place to stay and want to get out on the water - let us know and we can connect you with Captain Tommy. There are boats available in the area to sail or sleep on.
