Renovated bungalow, Private backyard, near beach/restaurants, AC, Bikes
Private house that was completely renovated in 2020. We are following all recommended cleaning processes.
Book with confidence, based on over 200 five-star reviews on my 4-VRBO properties. Other properties are: #182242, #821584, #4054307. If you need a large rental, ask about also renting the units located on the back of the property.
This recently renovated one-level house with 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths is located in a quiet part of coastal South Oceanside. It is just blocks from a local beach and many restaurants/shops. Conveniently located just 5 minutes from highway 5, it is the perfect location whether you want to enjoy the beach area, or visit major attractions including the Zoo, Seaworld, Legoland, or even Disneyland.
As you enter the house, you will see an open floor design, with the main sitting area, kitchen, and dinning area all together . The kitchen is fully stocked with cookware, dishes, glassware, utensils, coffee maker, blender, and let's not forget about the wine-opener! The family room has a comfortable sitting area with a 60 inch smart (Roku) TV, with all standard cable/ local channels with DVR capability. Free hi-speed Wi-Fi is also provided .
You can take advantage of the great year-round weather the area is known for on your private patio which includes a gas grill, outside furniture and two lounge chairs. Two bedrooms have queen beds, while a third smaller bedroom has a full sized bed. Two full sized bathrooms, both with newly tiled stall showers, are available from all rooms (soap, shampoo provided). Sorry, no bathtubs. Fresh linens and towels are provided as well as a hair dryer. In case you need to do any wash, the house has a large washer and dryer and detergent is also provided.
To make sure you are comfortable, the renovations included central A/C. Although the beach areas are known for their moderate temps, hot weather can occur anytime of the year. Even during the winter!
Large vehicals over 17 feet long will not fit into garage, and free street parking would have to be used. Typically spots can be found within a 1.5 blocks. Standard size SUVs will fit.
Since mostly locals live on the block, there typcially is a close parking spot on the street close to the house. There is also a dedicated parking spot in a garage on the back of the property which is shared with another rental.
No vacation is complete without taking a short walk to the popular Buccaneer Beach to see the sunset or perhaps to take advantage of the park which has a great playground for children. If you go before noon (2pm on weekends) you have to visit “The Buccaneer Cafe” located just across the street from Buccaneer beach (PS - try the Loco Moco or award winning cheese burgers).
If you just want to relax on the beach, beach chairs, umbrella, boogie boards, a beach cart, and kids sand toys are provided.
Two beach bike are provided, and upon request additional bikes including a child's bike, may be available (we do not provide helmets and it is illegal for anyone under the age of 18 to ride without a helmet so please bring one if needed).
On Thursdays, you should plan on visiting the Oceanside Farmers Market.
If there is a need for more than the small local shops, you can take a short 10 min drive to the “Carlsbad Outlet Mall”, or “The Forum Shops” located in nearby Encinitas. FYI, a small local market called “Primos” (very famous with the locals), is located just a few blocks away. You will be shocked to find they happen to have a great fresh meat counter in the back part of the store! For those with babies, I can provide a pack 'n play and booster seat if requested.
Beaware that the train runs close to the beach in Oceanside and you will hear the train whistle. It has not been a problem as you can see from the reviews.

Spacious, well equipped bungalow in the perfect location. Walking distance to beach, shopping, and great restaurants/coffeeshops. Quiet neighborhood. Will be back!
Great property with comfortable beds and all the room we needed. Perfect location. Walking to the beach and restaurants was easy. Would definitely stay here again!
We had such a great stay! The house has everything you could possibly need and is in a great location. Warren is super responsive and very accommodating. We will rent again!
This beach house rental exceeded our expectations! The location is great, just a couple blocks from the beach, food and shops. The house is clean and equipped with everything we needed. The hosts were friendly and responsive, making our stay enjoyable and hassle-free. Highly recommend for a relaxing beach getaway!
Great place to stay, we will be back again. Warren provides great communication about the property and is very easy to get a hold of. Thank you for the hospitality, we look forward to our next trip!
We were very happy with our stay, the house was beautiful inside, and out. The neighborhood was quiet and also beautiful. Warren was very friendly, and easy to reach. We would definitely love to stay at this property again.
House was great. Location was in walking distance to everything we needed. Maid got sick so we had to finish cleaning or we would have given it all 5 stars.

Thanks for pointing out that the rental is walkikng distance to shops, small markets, and many restaurants. Really adds to the overall experience.
Thanks for your understanding about my housekeeper, and your support for putting away her cleaning supplies. She thought she was coming back the next day to put everything away since it was late, but got sick.
We had a great family vacation. The location was great, close to the ocean and walking distance to coffee and restaurants. Quiet and beautiful neighborhood. The house was perfect, had all the amenities you could need and more and a great little yard.
The location is great for walking to restaurants of all sorts and for a short walk to the beach. We especially loved the convenience of a covered garage and fenced yard. Warren was quick to respond when we had a small glitch with the TV reception. Overall, this is a very nice place to stay.
A nice place with updated amenities. Some small issues that did not take away from our vacation enjoyment.

The previous renters damaged a cocktail table, and a new one is on order. It was still functional. Not sure about any other issues.

Have lived in the north coastal area of San Diego since 1981 and enjoy creating a great environment for others to enjoy an area I really love.
Why they chose this property
It is great vacationing in a place where you don't share any walls with other people. This is really a stand alone house and is located on a street that has mostly locals. It has been upgraded with new windows, flooring, and totally new modern kitchen.
What makes this property unique
Not many totally remodeled houses with AC and backyard.
