Stunning Ocean Views, Pool, Fitness Center & 2 Parking Spaces Included

Blue Whale Retreat ~ D303 at North Coast Village

Wake up to the breathtaking sights and sounds of the ocean! Enjoy the stunning whitewater ocean view, pool, and garden views from both balconies of this beautifully remodeled two-bedroom condo. Located just a stone’s throw away from the ocean, you can relax and soak in the amazing views while your kids splash and play in the lagoon-style heated pool. Plus, the sandy beach is just a few steps away!

The living room of Blue Whale Retreat is cozy and inviting. It features a comfortable sectional sofa with a queen-size pull-out bed and a Samsung Smart TV. The living room opens up to a private ocean-view balcony, perfect for relaxing and enjoying the sea breeze.

The kitchen is modern and stylish, with custom cabinets, granite counters, a tumbled stone backsplash, tile floors, and recessed lighting. It’s fully equipped with all the essentials, including a refrigerator, stove, microwave, dishwasher, dishes, pots, pans, flatware, cooking utensils, coffee maker, toaster, and blender. The dining area comfortably seats four people.

The second level is the romantic primary bedroom retreat, complete with a large ocean-view balcony. The downstairs bedroom has two full-size beds. The lower level bath is a tub/shower combination, while the second-level bathroom is a walk-in shower.

To make your stay even more enjoyable, we’ve provided three televisions. The Living Room TV is perfect for entertainment, and it also comes with free wireless Internet. Make My Vacation takes care of all the linens and towels, beach chairs, and beach towels, so you can relax and enjoy your vacation without any worries.

And the best part? This property comes with two assigned parking spaces in the underground, gated garage, so you can park your car safely and conveniently.

As you walk through the staffed secure gate to North Coast Village, you're transported to a tropical oasis reminiscent of the Costa Rican Rain Forest. Running streams, waterfalls, lush foliage, and Koi meander through the spacious grounds of this resort-like beachfront condominium complex located in Oceanside, California, between the Harbor and the Pier.

You will notice the crystal clear heated pool and spa, gleaming barbecues, convenient picnic tables, and sand rinsing stations to remove the lingering beach. If you need a break from sun and surf, you might enjoy a game of pool, a jog on a treadmill in the exercise room, a little ping pong, or a sauna. Feeding our giant Koi is a simple pleasure not to be missed during your Oceanside visit. There is also a putting green and foosball.

When you venture all the way through the back gates, you find yourself on one of North San Diego County’s finest beaches: broad and flat, with fire rings, volleyball, and great surf breaks - right out back! Be sure to stake out a fire ring to the south for a unique evening beach fire at least one night while you are in Oceanside.

To the north, you can walk or bike to Oceanside’s busy little harbor for a bite to eat or some boating, and to the south you can venture down the strand to southern California’s longest pier for some fishing (no license needed) or casual dining at Ruby's. North Coast Village is close enough to walk to everything near the beach, so your car can stay in its secure underground parking spot - especially useful when beach parking becomes a premium in the summer.

The Mainstreet Oceanside Farmer's Market is a delightful experience near the Pier which takes place every Thursday from 9-1, and and the Sunset Market Thursday evenings from 5-9.

Within a short drive, visit Disneyland & California Adventure, Knott's Berry Farm, Universal Studios, Magic Mountain, Balboa Island, La Jolla, Mission San Juan Capistrano, Mission Luis Rey, Queen Mary, San Diego State Parks, San Diego Wild Animal Park, Legoland, Sea World, The Flower Fields of Carlsbad, Temecula Wine Country, San Diego Zoo, Del Mar Racetrack, Coronado Island, Oceanside Harbor, Birch Aquarium at Scripp's Institute of Oceanography, and Palomar Observatory.

Great Beach Vacation!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved staying at the Blue Whale Retreat. It had everything we needed and more. The beach chairs were nice to have for when we went to the beach. The beach itself was amazing and the pool is in great condition. We loved that it was heated so that we could swim on a cold day! We would recommend to everyone!

The pool and beach were awesome. Unit itself was nice and comfortable for both of us. We found it hard to find our way around the parking garage, to get to the beach and the elevator was not working for over 24hrs. Needed better signage to assist guests. Ned in second bedroom had a horrible mattress which was very uncomfortable. Could use anew keyless entry. We had problems with the old keys.

Thank you for your feedback. We’re so glad you enjoyed the pool, beach, and found the unit comfortable overall during your stay. We also appreciate you bringing your concerns to our attention regarding the parking garage navigation, beach access, elevator outage, mattress comfort, and entry keys. Guest feedback like yours is very valuable and helps us continue improving the overall experience for future visitors. We apologize for the inconvenience caused by the temporary elevator issue, which was outside of our immediate control, and we understand how additional signage throughout the property could be helpful for guests unfamiliar with the complex. We’ll also share your comments regarding the mattress and key entry system with the property team for review. Thank you again for staying with us, and we hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future! — MakeMyVacation Team

Perfect Place for Families!

Everything was great. The pool and hot tub was a huge hit with my wife and the kids and the proximity to the beach and places to eat was perfect. The only thing I'd probably recommend is bringing a couple extra beach towels. We were there for a week and they did have 4 beach towels there but with kids I wish we would have had a couple extra. Overall did not take away from the experience one bit and we would absolutely stay again!
