About this property

Room with a view and right on the sand!

This beautiful home is just seconds away from the sand and offers seaside elegance, convenience, and safety. As a mom of four and an interior designer, the owner made every effort to bring serenity and functionality into the decor. She also created a desirable kitchen for the nights you wish to stay in and grill, which is located on the private balcony. If cooking isn't what you envision for a vacation, there are plenty of fun restaurants, bars, and breweries within walking distance. Kids getting antsy for some beach time? There are plenty of beach toys, towels and boogie boards. Parents can keep a watchful eye on them from the balcony. It is the perfect vacation - From the front door, your feet will get sandy in 30 seconds!

Perfect spot for Oceanside if you want access to the beach. There are picnic tables and a lifeguard station right there. The beach can get crowded further up or down, but since this is away from parking it stays less crowded. We had a good time and great spot for participating or watching in the Oceanside Ironman

Our FIFTH year at this beachfront property.

Our three generation (222) group has stayed here five times and will be back again. Location is among the best on The Strip and is a short walk to the harbor or downtown. The owner is easy to communicate with quick to respond, if needed.

Great Condo and Location

This condo was great and we have already booked again for next year. The location is only steps from the beach which is the best part. If you are looking for a beach condo - this is definitely one to book.

Perfect Vacation

Everything was perfect about our stay. We would stay here again in a heartbeat. The gated courtyard made us feel safe and the parking was beyond convenient. The view was spectacular and the property itself was immaculate and comfortable. The location was perfect to walk to town or the harbor.

Unbeatable location

We had a great time. Place was clean and comfortable. The 2 secure parking spots was a bonus. Kitchen was well-appointed. Beds were comfortable. The deck was a tad small for our group (4 adults and 2 kids). Location was perfect. The home is showing its age so don't expect sparkling new but would recommend this rental any time.

Why they chose this property

Location, Location!! We wanted a second home nearby (we live 20 minutes away) that we could retreat to and share great memories with friends and family. We love the ocean and beach lifestyle! We also chose this property because it can easily accommodate a larger family. We hope you love it as much as we do!

What makes this property unique

Ocean Front between Oceanside Pier and the Harbor. No need for a car - you can rent bikes or walk to so many places!
