Located in an exclusive beach community with private access to one of North San Diego County`s most beautiful sandy beaches and easy walking distance to the Village of Carlsbad. An iconic laidback California beach town, Carlsbad has it all from quaint coffee shops, old school surf shops, to great spots for Mexican or Seafood and hard to beat drinking holes.

Besides its location and unobstructed ocean view, this 2 bedroom, 2 bath features a private balcony, fully appointed kitchen, washer & dryer, Smart TV, wireless internet, and much more for a great stay!

We love this location – you can’t get closer to the beach and there is plenty of room for all.

Condo has 1,266 sq ft. There are 2 bedrooms + 2 full baths and 3 beds. Sleeps 5 total.

This is a 2-story unit on the beach.

Upstairs level features:
-The living/dining room (with a Smart TV) opens up to the amazing second floor private balcony - you`ll be able to hear the surf, people watch, and simply relax looking through the large picture window with nothing to obscure your view. Note: Fireplace is inoperable.

-A fully equipped kitchen with microwave, coffee maker, dishwasher and bar stool seating at kitchen counter.

-1 guest bedroom with a Queen bed.

-1 Full Bathroom (shower only).

Lower/Beach level features:
-A Family Room and access to the patio/deck with outdoor dining table. A mini fridge in family room provides extra beverage storage. Note: this patio/deck is not completely private.

-The master suite with a queen bed, an ensuite bathroom, Cable TV, and tons of closet space. Inside Master Bedroom closet, there is a Pack n Play for families with a small child.

-A twin captain`s bed is located in the entrance hallway of the master suite. A door separates the master suite from the twin bed area. This is also where the washer and dryer are located. Please contact us if you have questions.

HEATING (no air conditioning):
There is NO central air conditioning, central heat or functioning fireplace in the condo. The ocean breeze is constant and fresh, but during heat waves the condo can be warm. Extra air circulation is provided by ceiling fans installed in each room. An extra portable fan is provided as well. Portable radiant heaters provide warmth for cool nights.

BEACH EQUIPMENT:
We have beach towels, beach chairs, umbrellas, misc. beach games and sand toys available for your use.

COMMUNITY AMENITIES:
-The complex has a community BBQ (availability or operation cannot be guaranteed during your stay)
-An outdoor shower is located inside the complex beach gate. Great for rinsing off beach toys or sandy feet!

PARKING:
Unit comes with one guaranteed/designated parking spot. One additional guest parking is available on a first come first serve basis and permit is required. Street parking is often available within designated markings.

If you`ve never been to Carlsbad, you are in for a treat. The Village has shopping, great restaurants for any taste, and personality. The beach is large with lots of soft sand and offers all types of water sports from boogie boarding to paddle boarding to swimming to snorkeling to surfing and splashing, it`s up to you. Explore the coast by walking down one of the paved walkways (one by the sand, one by the street) or rent a bike and use the dedicated bike lanes.

Legoland is a short drive from our apartment as is the Museum of Making Music. San Diego isn`t far away with the San Diego Zoo, USS Midway, Balboa Park and museums, the Star of India, and more...

You can travel any way you choose from the condo -- you`ll have one designated parking spot if you drive. Buses run right by the condo and Lyft, Uber, and taxi service is readily available.

Home Truths:
-Condo does not have Air Conditioning but ceiling fans and ocean breezes. No central heating but 2 portable radiant heaters and cozy blankets are available. Fireplace is inoperable.

We had a great family vacation in n Carlsbad. We had plenty of room for our family of four. The view was beautiful and the location was perfect. The condo was clean and had everything we needed for our four night stay. We hope to visit again!

The views are amazing and the beach access was so easy! Communication with the concierge was quick and easy. They were very accommodating. I do have to say, that they have ants all over the unit, we were turned off by that and weren’t able to take advantage of the kitchen to cook a meal or 2 because they were on the counters in the sink. We did inform the concierge, but they weren’t able to help. I hope they rectify that situation before the next booking.

We just stared at the water all week from the comfort of both patios. This may have been my favorite trip to the beach ever and I’m not sure I actually stepped on the sand.

Amazing property

This was an amazing property right on the ocean and within a short walk of downtown Carlsbad. We stayed 4 nights with our family of 5 and it was perfect for us. There was plenty of room for everyone and with views of the ocean everywhere you look. Carlsbad is the best beach town anyone could ask for and check in, communication, and the entire process was very smooth. Thank you for an amazing stay!

Amazing Carlsbad home located on the beach

We stayed in this property for four days in late August 2024. The home was perfect and we could not have asked for more. It was exactly as advertised and MORE!! The house was in pristine condition and extremely clean. It was loaded with amenities - kitchen supplies, towels, bedding, beach toys, beach chairs, etc. The management company - Air Concierge was so easy to deal with. Communication was very open and responsive. They did a great job. We will definitely stay here again.

The Property was the perfect size for our family of 4, with great access/views of the beach and close to town. Management was super-proactive throughout our stay. The presence of beach toys/chairs/umbrella was a huge plus that made our time on the sand much more enjoyable and seamless.

Beach front family vacay

We loved everything about this townhome and cannot wait to go back. You cannot get any closer to the beach with super easy access which is a must with children and carrying all their crap haha and coming back home for snacks and naps. Beach wasn't crowded at all, it was clean and so fun! The home worked perfectly for our family of 4 (kids ages 5 and 3 years old). I was a little worried about all the stairs (stairs to access unit and stairs inside unit going to downstairs) but my kids had no problems. The home had everything we needed, we will be back.

It has a full kitchen with lots of dishes, pots and pans, etc., it has a full size washer and dryer which is all so necessary when you have stay somewhere with kids! It has beach umbrellas, beach chairs, sand toys, towels, etc. It is on the beach with and walking distance to shops and restaurants. Seriously, they have thought of everything! We loved it so much and can't wait to come back.

Amazing ocean view and access to beach. Condo had everything needed for a comfortable stay.

Really enjoyed the condo and beach access! Kitchen and baths were well supplied. Amazing views and comfy beds. Loved the downstairs couch. Overall, a very nice stay! A few items: night light needed replacing downstairs. Upstairs bed needed to be cleaned as well as front windows. Plumbing issue next door, north. (We are local Carlsbad folks that are owners too, so we thought you would like to know... ) Thanks for a wonderful stay!

Great Weekend

This property was a great place to spend a staycation weekend (we are from san diego). The place was just as advertised and had everything we needed. It was really cute and being right on the beach and so close to restaurants meant we didn't have to drive anywhere! We knew there was no A/C and although it was a very hot weekend we all were totally fine with the fans. The view and ocean air was wonderful. The only thing I could nitpick is the downstairs bedroom was a little cave-like because very little light comes in through the window. We would definitely stay here again.
