What makes this property unique

SOME LOVE FROM OUR FORMER GUESTS:

"This home was great and perfectly located for all activities in Oxnard. I will definitely stay at this home again." Justin September 2025

"The house was well done and well stocked especially the kitchen and the beach items. Greatly appreciated the coffee and tea." John S. August 2025

"Quite honestly the best Airbnb I’ve ever stayed at. The location was great and easily walkable to the beach. The house is very nice and is as described with a fully stocked kitchen and great bathrooms. The house is packed with every amenity needed (I have never seen an Airbnb have amenities packed so thoroughly and thoughtfully). The garage has all the beach things you need so you don’t need to bring much yourself. I would recommend 10 out of 10 times and would completely stay here again." Nicholas June 2025

"Absolute delight! Literally seconds from the sand, beautiful, updated home. Early what you pay for!" Ashlee June 2025

“Beautiful home for a great price. Walking distance to a very big beach and not crowded at all. The home was super clean and had everything you need. It was perfect for our dog with a fenced in yard too. We hope to come back and stay again in the future! Host was very responsive and accommodated every request we had promptly! Thank you so much!” Joseph April 2025

“Beautiful home steps to the beach. We thoroughly enjoyed the amazing bath tub with jets and the large king size bed in the primary bedroom. Being able to take our dog on vacation with us was an added bonus, as she loves the beach too. We also enjoyed having dinner and morning coffee on the front patio with the fire pit. Lisa’s home has gorgeous updated decor and large bedrooms. We also enjoyed all the local restaurants including Toppers Pizza and The Strandwich.” Tawny March 2025
