About this property

Pearl on the Strand - Ocean and Village Views at Oceanside Beach!

Fall asleep to the dulcet sounds of the Pacific and the wind whispering through the palm trees at Pearl on the Strand - nestled inside the gardens of Oceanside's popular North Coast Village. Enjoy the best of both worlds - an awesome view of the Ocean and lush tropical gardens right outside your balcony!

Only steps away from the beach, the Pearl is located at the west end of North Coast Village and off of Oceanside's iconic Strand. Take pleasure in our fresh, great-smelling luxurious linens, King and Queen beds, big plush towels, fully stocked kitchen, beach essentials - umbrella and chairs, shower gel, shampoo/conditioner, hairdryer, and free parking.

Plus, enjoy our welcome gift of either fresh fruit, muffins, or pastries - your choice!

Relax by a crackling fire (during winter months), a bubbling hot tub, or a cooling pool while the ocean roars at the Pearl!

At the Pearl, we strive to provide everything that we, ourselves, would want from a vacation getaway. A clean, safe place to stay where the view and time away is enjoyed every minute. Easy check-in and even easier check-out. You don’t have to strip the beds, do the laundry, take the garbage out, or do the dishes. We do all the cleaning for you. YOU are our top priority!

On Site: Spa, gym, pool, hot tub, ping pong, foosball, billiards, BBQ, koi pond, putting green, and laundry facility.
Off Site: Oceanside Pier, Oceanside Harbor shops and restaurants, California Surf Museum, Top Gun House, Oceanside Museum of Art. Learn how to ride the waves from a local surfer!
Only a quick Uber ride to Mission San Luis Rey, indoor skydiving, and outlet shopping, local wineries and breweries.

Thursdays: Check out the Oceanside Morning Farmers Market from 9-1 at the corner of North Coast Hwy and Pier View Way for delicious home-grown fruits and vegetables.
Oceanside Sunset Market also on Pier View Way from 5-9pm with local crafts and more. Both take place year-round.

NOTE: If booking within 48 hours of check-in date, guests are charged an additional, one-time $35 key-gathering fee. This is an un-avoidable fee, charged to us by our HOA.

All of us here at the Pearl delight in making sure your getaway meets your needs. If it's the ocean you want, we will deliver. Beach living starts at Pearl on the Strand!

We were blown away by North Coast Village! This room is just beautiful with an excellent view of the pool and the beach. David and Cindy were very helpful with any questions we had. The entire property is amazing. Built in the late 1970s, it is maintained to perfection. It also has direct access to the beach, without having to cross any streets. We took long walks through the Polynesian gardens where you can see an incredible goldfish water garden with what must be close to 100 enormous fish. At three feet long, these goldfish must be decades old. If you bring some loose quarters for change, you can feed them from dispensers where they all crowd in and practically sit up and beg with hungry open mouths! Adorable! I must say, I’ve been to quite a few famous resorts on the East Coast, and I have never seen anything as magnificent as this property. They say that things are bigger in Texas. It seems to me that things are more like out of a Disney dream in California! I highly recommend considering a stay if you’re going to be in Oceanside! We loved it!

Great accommodations. Extremely clean, well stock and supplied with more than we would have imagined. You can see the ocean and beautiful sunsets from the patio. Great pool, BBQ area and outdoor showers around the property. Walkability was perfect to the Oceanside Harbor, downtown Oceanside and the pier.

The Pearl was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed for our stay. The location in the complex was perfect so getting to the pool, beach, and parking garage was easy. The north-facing patio stayed cool all day and had a great view overlooking the beautiful grounds of NCV and the ocean/beach. The murphy bed was perfect for our little family of 3 and a smart addition to this condo.
