Ocean Front Home Sleeps 10+ Dream Beach Vacation
This beach house was wonderful. It was very accessible to all areas- food, bars, entertainment. You can walk to Belmont in 7 min or go to the R in PB with a 6 minute Uber ride. The house has all great amenities. They had bikes and water equipment to use. There are 2 parking garages so it helps with big groups. Along with that, the beds are comfortable and clean! I would stay again in a heartbeat.

Ocean Front Sunset Cliffs Beach House
This place is amazing!! The best views, the best walking, and the spaces in the house are perfect for a group. We made dinner in and watched the sunset every night. We also brought our 6 month old son and it was a great location to be “nap trapped.”

Bay View Beach House - Coastal Retreat
Michael was a great host. I really appreciated the opportunity to check in early even though it didn’t work out. I also appreciated the fast and efficient communication. The house was perfect for our stay. Would definitely recommend. Thanks again for your hospitality!

Carlsbad Blvd Bungalow - Completely Renovated
These were amazing days in an outstanding place. The house is e exactly as described and the location is perfect if you want to sit and relax looking the sunset. Couldn’t be more appropriate to what we were looking for. House was very clean and had everything we need.

Oceanview Mission Beach Home 2025 Remodel 4Bedroom
I had an amazing stay at this Airbnb in San Diego. The location is unbeatable right on the beach with good views. There are tons of great food places within a 5-minute walk, which made it super convenient. The host was fantastic, responding quickly to any questions and even recommending some awesome food spots. Highly recommend this place for a relaxing beach getaway.

San Diego Beachfront House 60s to sand, surf, pier
Mike was awesome. My family and I are from near Pasadena CA. Mike was awesome in making us feel welcomed in lieu of the unfortunate fires in LA county. His house was beautiful. The view of the ocean was exactly what we wanted. As a plus, the spot was near a brewery (walking distance) where they had amazing coffee and food. We were also about 20 mins from downtown, and a short drive to nearby stores like Costco and Target. Thanks Mike for everything!

Ocean Views,Rooftop Deck,Fire Pit,Game Room,AC
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Beautiful and sparkling clean house, plenty of space and right across the street from Terramar Point, a great surf break. We could see dolphins and seabirds from the large windows of the house. One night we ordered delivery and ate watching the sunset from the rooftop! Anthony and Amanda were so kind and helpful. Lots of great restaurants in Carlsbad. We especially enjoyed dinner one night at Campfire. Incredible food and service. Highly recommend!!

The Bridge At South Oceanside: The Perfect Family Beach House, now w/ A/C!
We had an amazing stay at this ocean view home! The location is just steps from the shore with breathtaking ocean views from every angle. The house itself is incredibly spacious, offered plenty of room for everyone to relax comfortably and had good parking. Everything was clean upon arrival, and the host Sandra was responsive. Highly recommend!

Epic family beach bungalow - 1 block from beach
Great place! Got this place for a bachelor party and they had so much fun using the backyard for games. It was a walkable distance to the bars and fun outings and was close to the beach. Highly recommend

Modern Coastal Farmhouse - steps to the beach
Mimi and Hank are always so welcoming. They go above and beyond to make us feel welcome. This is by far the nicest Air B&B we have ever stayed in. It is beautiful, clean, and perfect location for activities. We plan to return for the 3rd year in a row.

Newly Remodeled NOT Shared Beachfront Home W/SPA
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!

Pet and Family Friendly Cottage
Even better than I thought! Spacious, clean and cute. Comfy beds, beach equipment, stocked kitchen and overall such a homey vibe. Highly recommend and will stay here again:)

Pets OK Beach Home Carlsbad - STVR BLRE1241169
Great spot. Super cool property within minutes from the heart of Carlsbad. The property was perfect for my two small pups; very secure. The accommodations met my needs perfectly. I look forward to reserving this location every time I visit the Carlsbad area. Jim was excellent host.

Beachy Boho • 2 Bedroom • Encinitas
I loved staying here and walking everywhere. I would recommend to others.

"Seafoam House" just steps to Surf Beach, Downtown
Our stay was wonderful. Rachel and Pete the property manager were super friendly, helpful and accommodating. The house was clean, cozy and comfortable. Perfect for a family with kids. The location is amazing - just a an easy block to the beach and walking distance to restaurants.

Beach Lovers You are there!
Lillian's place was excellent. It is just steps away from the beautiful oceanside beach and pier, and easily walkable to beach area restaurants and shops. The pictures don't do it justice, the home is much more spacious and simply "roomier" than what is shown. I would love to go back.
Beach house rentals with a pool

Whole beach house with spa & pool!
Our multigenerational family of six enjoyed our stay at Dan’s Oceanside home, and we will definitely stay here again. If you value privacy, safety, and comfort, you will love Dan’s place for you and your family. We are a no pet, no smoking, no alcohol drinking, no shoes indoors, environmentally conscious family and Dan’s clean, comfortable, safe, and relaxing home was the perfect find. If you enjoy cooking like we do, the kitchen is well equipped with excellent quality cookware and appliances. The house does not have central AC but there are ceiling fans, which we used, and portable fans (which we didn’t need to use) as the house gets a nice breeze throughout. If you are sensitive to sound, you can definitely hear some minimal noise from nearby highway and trains, but nothing we couldn’t tolerate. Hot tub operation is remotely controlled and requires contact with Dan to be heated. House manual with information/rules to make sure everyone has a pleasant stay, is respectful of property

Private 3 bedroom block to Bay New Pool Spa, Bikes
Vanessa's place is in a very very quiet neighborhood just steps from the bay. I am a SD native, I know the city very well. I actually lived in the area for many years. This place is totally worth it if your traveling with a family with kids. Plenty to do, plenty of space to sit and relax inside and outside. It has plenty of things to keep kids busy from books to toys very very nice touch. If available when we return definitely will be staying here. The short walk to watch the sunset in the ocean is worth every penny..

Charming 2-bedroom house, 2 blocks from the beach
Our second stay here and we will certainly be back. It’s a great place and we felt right at home! Location cannot be beat - near the beach and the village.

NEW Discount Rate 3BD Ocean View
This is one of our favorite townhouse among all the Airbnbs we’ve stayed in! 1. It’s very quiet and located in a gated community, which feels safe. 2. It’s close to the ocean. You can’t see the sea directly, but it’s just a few minutes’ walk to the beach. 3. The house is super comfortable and beautiful! The host provided almost everything we needed, which made our stay very convenient—we really appreciated that. 4. The community is lovely, with swimming pools and a large ocean-facing lounge. 5. The location is convenient. Although it’s in North San Diego, it’s only 6 minutes to Del Mar beach park and 30 minutes to the south. The only inconvenience: the host requires guests to wash all towels or pay a $100 fine. This meant we had to start doing laundry the day before check-out. Since check-out is at 10 AM and we also needed to clean the kitchen, we were rushing to wash and dry towels in the morning. This was not convenient. Everything else is very good!

Tamarack Palms - Heated Pool & Short Walk to Beach
We had such a great Spring Break stay at Tamarack Palms with our two young kids and our pup. The yard and heated pool were the stars—our kids were thrilled to have so much space to play, and even though the weather was cool, the heated pool made it easy to enjoy time outside every day. The location was ideal—peaceful, family-friendly neighborhood and just minutes from the beach, Carlsbad Village, and essentials like Von’s. It made daily outings and grocery runs super convenient. Inside, the home was clean, stylish, and well laid out. The three bedrooms and two bathrooms were perfect for our family, and having a washer and dryer made the whole trip easier. The main living space is cozy but functional, and we felt right at home. Our host was fantastic—responsive, friendly, and accommodating. It’s clear a lot of care goes into making guests feel welcome. No negatives at all—just a peaceful, well-located family stay. We’d absolutely stay again.

B5347 Del Mar Haven
We loved it! It was a great place to stay with easy access to the highway so it was fast getting south into La Jolla and San Diego and also north up to Carlsbad, Legoland and west to the Safari. The pool was great, the hot tub could’ve been a bit warmer but the kids still loved it.

Sleek and Chic by the Beach
5 Star stay! The home was absolutely beautiful! Proactive and thoughtful communication made the logistics a breeze. The guide for the home and surrounding area was one of best we’ve ever seen. I would highly recommend!

*OPEN 5/21-23! Pool/Spa, Billiards, Pets, By Beach
Beautiful home in a nice, gated community. The accommodations for my baby were a huge plus and made our stay even more comfortable. Would definitely book again!
