Beach house vacation rentals in California

Great place to stay-close to everything. Enjoyed the beach and entertained our Marine boys from Pendleton! Hope to stay again!

Beautiful home with heat waterfront view. Neighbors were very warm and social. Great location near downtown Balboa Island. Once you park, no need to use the car. it is a gem that I would recommend.

Guys golf outing trip. Was our second time staying at the home. Great location near the water. Plenty of room to layout throughout. House is well kept up. Jennifer answered quickly to provide assistance when the smoke detector went off for no reason? Will stay again when in the area.

Beautiful place. The home fit all of our needs and was in the perfect location. Unfortunate we were told last minute about the construction to the rock wall on the ocean side, so we were not able to experience a true “beach front” vacation. Construction started right at 6:30am. The host was however very accommodating and did offer a last minute cancellation or 25% off our stay. We chose the 25% discount due to it being our spring break and did not want to cancel on our kids. I’m sure as soon as the construction is done it’ll be a perfect spot again. Would love to go back!

Very nice home, great views, fire pit is a plus, neighbors night time security lighting is terrible. Overall excellent!!

One of the best Airbnbs I have stayed at. Great location, wonderful host, and exactly as described.

Chris and Michelle were very responsive hosts. We loved the location and were thrilled with the little toys, books, and beach items provided for our use.

Wonderful stay and just steps from the beach. Mark was super super responsive and helpful. Perfect for our family of 6. Can’t wait to return and stay here again!

Our second time at the property - we returned as we like it so much! Quiet and private, yet only 20 feet from the beach front. Close to amenities - Pavilions supermarket, Chipotle for great food, and Handels for awesome ice-cream! We hope to return in the future!

Perfect house for us as we attended our daughters wedding in Santa Barbara. We needed 3 bedrooms as we had Grandparents, parents and younger daughter and her husband. Absolutely loved the location, 2 blocks from the beach. Perfect for early morning walks on the beach with my dog. We will definitely return to Santa Barbara.

This home felt like such an oasis. Our family stayed here while visiting Channel Islands National Park and it was the perfect choice. The details were thoughtful and house well stocked in every way. Our toddler loved the yard and especially the koi pond!

This place was HEAVEN!! We fell in love with the place. The place was spotless and looked exactly like the photos. A 15 min walk to restaurants and shops. We enjoyed the view from the couch every morning and the view from the lifeguard chairs in the evening. The Airbnb hosts were helpful and responsive. This place felt like home and can not wait to book again! Thank you!

Fantastic location and home for a family get-away. Much to see and do on site and in the local area. The home is very comfortable and welcoming with all the amenities you might need and more. Can’t wait to book again!

We had such a wonderful stay! The home was welcoming, beautifully decorated, and packed with thoughtful touches that made our trip so enjoyable. Our family especially loved all the amenities—the ping pong tables, bikes, BBQ, fire pit, and even the outdoor shower were such fun and added so much to our experience. Everything was clean, cozy, and exactly as described. This is a place we’d absolutely love to come back to—highly recommend!

We felt right at home and had everything we needed for the best weekend. Our favorite part about the house was being able to walk to the beach in just 3 minutes with coffee, pizza and pie right there on her fingertips beautiful location

This was the perfect place for our family to stay on our visit to Crescent City. The house was very clean and well equipped, the beds were comfortable, and there are ocean views from all the front windows. I loved her decorations too! We loved the beach access across the street and the easy drive to the redwoods. Lori was so friendly and easy to communicate with. I would definitely love to stay here again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to anyone!

Vanessa’s place was nothing short of amazing! The location is just unbearable. A walk to the beach/boardwalk, 5 min from Seaworld, 20 min from downtown. Near Mission beach and Pacific beach, surrounded by great restaurants. I could go on and on. It fit my family of 4 plus my mom and stepdad perfectly. We enjoyed the pool during the day and hot tub at night. The house has everything you could possibly want or need. We would absolutely stay there again and plan to!

Great spot! The views are even better than the pictures and the house is a very beautifully designed mid century style. Seaside location right by the beach. A bit rustic but part of the charm and all the appliances / water pressure / etc worked perfectly.

We stayed at Pete's place because it has a gorgeous pool (the pool slide was a huge hit), is close to Del Mar racetrack, and is close to the beach/ocean (you can see the ocean from the front yard). We took our two Bichons and felt safe and secure letting them out. We have family in San Diego and had a small family cook out on Sunday. The grill was awesome, and there are lots of fun things to do on the property, front and back yards. We didn't take advantage of the jacuzzi, but it was already heated up. Since the house doesn't have air conditioning, there were fans in the family room and bedroom. Large kitchen, so you can cook and bake if you don't want to eat out all the time. The house is single story, but outside there are lots of levels where you have to go up and down some single steps,so small children would need help and elderly or disabled folks may need help, too. Pete gave great directions about how to access the main entrance, and the self check-in security code.

Great place! Especially if traveling with kids. Very clean and has all the comforts of home. The yard is a bonus for letting little ones play. Mari was helpful and accommodating and easy to communicate with. My family was actually set to stay at another one of their properties but at the last minute, (and due to circumstances beyond anyone’s control), we were unable to stay at the original booking. But Mari was quick to reach out to me and was very helpful at getting us booked at another location. Definitely recommend and would stay again!

We had a lovely weekend with our family celebrating a birthday. The place was perfect for hosting 6 of us, walking to the beach and then driving up to Capitola and other towns very close by for celebration dinners. We enjoyed staying here and would definitely recommend others to consider for a beach getaway.

Sue’s place was perfect for my large family and I!!! We truly enjoyed being there and felt at home. The kitchen was very well equipped so we can make great meals! The area was phenomenal! If we ever came back, we’d definitely book here again!

We stayed here for our 23rd anniversary, and this home exceeded our expectations. We normally stay bluff side, but I'm glad we didn't. Pauline has put so much thought into making this the perfect get away and the layout is ideal for a couple looking for a quiet and private retreat. We loved the hot tub, views, fireplace (which worked great ;-) and the wonderfully comfortable beds. Many whale spouts and great dinners at the Vue and Sea Ranch Lodge where we charged our car.

For a great get away this place is fantastic l, Really enjoyed our stay it’s best for staying local and Allison had great recommendations for food and local sites..
