About this property

Mini Art Gallery by the Sea – Del Mar Beach Bungalow Near Track & Sand

Step into a one-of-a-kind beach bungalow nestled in Del Mar’s coveted Beach Colony, just a short stroll to the sand and the Del Mar Racetrack. This beautifully curated 2-bedroom, 1-bath retreat is more than a place to stay—it’s a cultural experience. Appointed with museum-quality artwork and distinctive antique pieces, the home feels like a mini art gallery by the sea.

Inside, you'll find original works by acclaimed artists such as Ramoné Munoz and Richard Overstreet, an understudy of Leonor Fini and Pablo Picasso. The home is further enriched with antique furnishings from Durenberger Antiques in San Juan Capistrano and unique Parisian lamps collected from the Marché aux Puces. Every detail adds richness, character, and warmth to your stay.

Whether you're visiting for Del Mar’s vibrant summer race meet, the prestigious Breeders’ Cup this November, or the charming Bing Crosby Season, this tranquil, art-filled retreat is the perfect base for your coastal escape.
