Getaway Beach Bungalow Carlsbad Village Family & Pet Friendly, 1 Block To Beach

This open and bright beach bungalow is perfectly located 1 block from Tamarack Surf Beach (part of Carlsbad State Beach) in Carlsbad Village-by-the-Sea. It's an easy walk to get your feet in the sand, improve your surfing skills or to just enjoy the ocean waves. It's also a brief 20 minute walk from the house to enjoy the restaurants, shopping, pubs / bars and nightlife downtown in the village. If you're looking for a really delicious meal walk to the end of our street and you'll find Vigilucci's Seafood & Steakhouse for a scrumptious meal and glass of wine where you can relax and watch the sunset directly across the street. Looking to stay at home and relax on the porch while watching the sunset after a day at the beach or strolling across the boardwalk or walking around the village? The house is fully equipped for all your cooking needs - including a BBQ and outdoor seating in our huge fully fenced back yard.

This beach bungalow getaway is setup to be casual and comfortable with sleeping for 7. The master bedroom has a cal-king bed, the second bedroom has a queen bed, and the detached sunroom has a bunk bed (twin on top and full on bottom). There are large Smart TVs in every room and the whole house was WIFI over high-speed internet, there's even a workspace set up in case you have to squeeze in a bit of work.

The house has an outdoor shower so you can enjoy all the outdoor activities and get an easy rinse off when you're done. We've got tons of beach gear to make it all easy for you to enjoy your stay!

This remodeled 1950s bungalow is beautiful inside and out and located on a quiet, safe cul-de-sac street. It's setup with linens, towels, bedding, basic supplies and a well-equipped kitchen for this to be your home away from home. His and Hers beach cruiser bikes as well as bikes for littles, a surf board, boogie board and a skim board are included for your enjoyment. There is plenty of parking with the garage, a long, wide driveway as well as street parking. The garage also has a washing machine and dryer to conveniently keep your clothes washed the way you like them.

Wonderful family vacation!
I don’t normally write reviews, however, I was so impressed with Getaway Beach Bungalow that I thought it needed a review. The place was extremely clean, which allowed me, as the mom, to be able to relax. The place was also stocked with everything you need from toiletries to beach items. It was so nice to not have to rent beach chairs or to have to transport them in our car. The location of the home is on a quiet street, with close access to the beach and the town. This was definitely one of our favorite family vacations!

A comfortable stay!
No real complaints here - the beds were comfortable - home clean - neighborhood was quiet - well stocked kitchen and so close to the beach. It was on the chilly side during our stay and we did have a little issue with figuring out how to run the heat wall units but we made it work. There is a gas fireplace which was so nice to have running in the evenings. We did enjoy our stay here and would probably rent it again.

Park the car and enjoy Carlsbad!
Very clean, comfortable, close to town, short walk to the beach and boardwalk. Lots of toys and beach supplies available for families. Well cared for front and back yard with covered patio and bar-b-que to enjoy anytime of the day or evening. We met a Navy friend from Colorado who served together 45 years ago and had family visit from Reno and San Diego for some beach time. Would highly recommend and plan another visit to the Getaway Beach Bungalow!

Carlsbad bungalow stay
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Carlsbad. The house had everything a beach goer could want or need and with the beach only a short walk away it doesn’t get much better. The kids loved the back bedroom and backyard. We really loved the large master bedroom, with an extremely comfortable bed. I felt like I was at home.

The Bungalow
We were very pleased overall and if future plans include Carlsbad, we would rent it again. There were two issues: Wi-Fi was not acceptable and was very difficult to log into. The second bedroom needs a lamp on the night table and the living room could also use a lamp on the end table. Our host was attentive and considerate, thank you. Barbara

Superb location near beach in Carlsbad
The proximity to the beach is great and one detail to keep in mind is that the street actually is a cul-de-sac so for it's location it's very quiet. The house was clean and had everything we needed and the yard was perfect for kids and our dog.

This is a great home in a great location. We loved having the back yard for our dogs. The neighborhood is quiet and friendly and close enough to walk to the beach. Plenty of good places to eat near by and the carlsbad village is very close as well. We were extremely happy with this place. Wish we could have stayed longer. Thank you.

August family vacation
The house is well stocked and appointed. The kitchen has plenty of cooking essentials. The beds are comfortable. The front porch is lovely for sitting outside with coffee or evening beverages. There are LOTS of toys, chairs, beach shelter, umbrella, beach towels, boogie boards, etc. for the beach and a wagon and 2 carts to carry them to the beach. The location is great: 2 short blocks to the beach and a 10-15 minute walk to Carlsbad Village. The hostess was very responsive and answered our questions promptly. We recommend this property and would like to return someday.

Awesome stay - incredible amenities!
We traveled with our 4 kids ages 7, 5, 3, and almost 1. Overall this property is amazing! Great location, quiet street close to the beach, big front and back yard. I cannot even begin to list all the extras we were surprised to find when we arrived: pack n play, actual crib that could be assembled, high chairs, changing pad, kiddo step stools, toys, movies, kitchen spices/appliances/accessories, medicine cabinet essentials like aloe, bubble bath for kids, chest rub for kids, awesome shampoo/conditioner, so many extra sheets/pillows/towels, a toddler mattress...the list goes on and on! If you're traveling with kids, this house literally has everything you'd need. What a treat! The ONLY thing that was a bit of a disappointment was that the listing does not make it clear that the bunk bed room is actually detached from the house. It's not far (just across the back patio), but my kids are young, and were too scared to sleep in a different "house". They were very excited about the bunk beds, so this was a bit of a disappointment. It also required us to rearrange all of our sleeping arrangements putting a couple of the kids in the master with us which we weren't anticipating. Not the end of the world as the master is huge, but a bit of a bummer. If your kids are a bit older than mine (oldest is 7) the bunk room would probably be amazing to keep everyone in their own space. All in all, it's an awesome place and we loved our stay!

Top notch accommodation near the beach in Carlsbad
We absolutely loved this cute bungalow stocked with everything we needed for a fun day at the beach, which was only a block away! The location was perfect! We really enjoyed sitting out on the both the front porch and in the backyard to enjoy our morning coffee and relax. There is a nearby bike path that we also used for a short ride into town. It's a great place for a family vacation and we will definitely be back.

This was a great property for kids and dogs. My dogs and toddler enjoyed the backyard. They have some toys and slides for kids that my toddler loved. Bikes for your use.

About the host

Host profile image
Born and raised in California I have lived in San Diego County for the last 30 years. Carlsbad in one of my favorite places in the world and this house is where we raised our two girls.

Why they chose this property

It's hard to find family friendly, walkable neighborhoods anymore. I think this may be one of the last ones and we love our neighbors and this village so much!

What makes this property unique

We are on a pretty good sized lot for this area, so we can enjoy our yard as well as the beach. The neighbors are wonderful and we are the only street in the village without an apartment building or multi-unit residence packed onto the lot - it makes for a nice quiet safe street.
