Vacation rentals with beach access in San Marcos

My husband and I enjoyed our stay! It was such a cute little beach house. Small home but the layout and lack of clutter made it feel bigger and functional. It was the perfect location for easily walking to the beach or dining near the pier. We would definitely stay again!

This was an incredible place to stay! The hosts were so responsive and went out of their way to even bring us a gift basket and say hello. Their communication made the place so easy to be able to find and it’s walkable to the beach, restaurants, coffee shops, and more. This place is a true gem due to location and the amazing hosts!

We spent 13 nights at Angela’s while visiting our daughter in PB. The apartment is very comfortable with a cute beach theme. Bed was comfortable and shower great. Kitchen was well stocked for cooking. Angela had excellent communication and rules and apartment use guidelines were very clear. The location was fantastic for walking to the ocean, great coffee, bakery and restaurants nearby. I highly recommend Angela’s apartment and hope to stay again!

Our second stay at this rental. Can't beat the location and the place is very well equipped for the size. My husband and I worked remotely during the week and the internet was very reliable. Already thinking about when we can return again!

We absolutely loved it here!! So fun to be right on the boardwalk with gorgeous views even in bad weather! We had an amazing time 💖

Our son was the primary guest at this property while he interned at a local law office. We were able to leave him and return to Texas feeling very comfortable with his accommodations. Location was perfect, centrally located, close to village dining and shopping as well as walk to the beach. He enjoyed his time and looks forward to another visit. Thank you so much for the amazing communication and well kept property.

Great stay at Marabella! The views were stunning from our room! Located right on the water, walking distance from many shops and restaurants. The patio was nice and grounds were well kept and clean. The beach chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards and outdoor shower was definitely appreciated. It was perfect!

Stayed for the weekend and was able to find lots of additional parking nearby. Great stay for many guests :)

The house had everything we needed for a comfortable long weekend away. Angelo was very responsive and quickly addressed our questions or concerns. The house is in a perfect location with lots to do in the area within walking distance. We would stay here again.

Loved our staycation at this adorable beach house! Location could not have been better - just a couple blocks from beach access and also super close to restaurants, shops and bars. The house is very cute and was just the right size for our little family of four. The kitchen is well stocked including a French press and keurig. It was also nice having both a front and back yard. Our dog and toddler both thoroughly enjoyed this protected outdoor space. Hosts are also fantastic and were incredibly responsive and generous, including when we embarrassingly locked ourselves out of the house. Highly recommend and would book again!

We were super happy with the location of the home! Very walkable, loved that we were steps from both the bay and the ocean! Lower patio and rooftop were our favorite places to take in the evenings! Water toys were abundant and we enjoyed using the kayaks out in the bay. It was a little difficult to control the temperature in the home, but nothing that would deter us from returning. That may have been an "us" problem, too. Only other "quirk" I would mention is that you have to walk through a bathroom to get to the 2nd bedroom. Again, not that big of a deal, especially when traveling with kids. Overall, the house was perfect for our family of 3. Nick was very responsive when I reached out. Neighbors were friendly. Great recommendations for places to eat. Highly suggest Kono's! We all said we would definitely stay here again on a return trip! Thank you, Nick for such a great stay!!

We had an absolutely perfect stay! The home was cozy, beautifully maintained, and thoughtfully stocked—perfect for our little family getaway. The beds were incredibly comfortable, the neighborhood was quiet and lovely, and everything about the space made us feel right at home. There were even board games for our entire family to enjoy! Meghan was a truly amazing host! She was so warm, welcoming, and responsive. She went above and beyond to ensure we had a great experience. Our kids had the best time and have been asking when we can go back already! We’re so grateful for the memories made here and would return in a heartbeat. Highly, highly recommend!

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!

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.

The Airbnb was lovely. It was the perfect size. The kitchen was well equipped and spacious. We were so grateful they came over and put up the umbrella for the front patio to provide shade. They even put a bassinet in the bedroom for us. This is walking distance a few blocks from the main downtown and it’s nice to be away from the busy noise, but not too far . The beach that is two blocks away is a very small, narrow, tiny beach not great for swimming or walking as the tide comes up, but it’s pleasant to hear the sounds of the ocean . Overall, a lovely space ,thank you again so much.

We LOVED OUR STAY! The condo, small but spacious and complete with amenities you need! Special shoutout for the bag of white cheddar popcorn to snack on! Much thanks! We walked to the harbor across the bridge, and every kind of food was available! We had lattes at the Natural Bean and yummy fish n chips for lunch, a few steps away! The condo was warm, and cozy for a chilly spring evening, great location. Beautiful surroundings and the view was great! They had towels, chairs and boogie boards if you want to lay for hours on the beach, which is steps away! We felt safe and rested…two HUGE requirements for a vacay! Thanks for everything!

I've stayed at Sandra's condo at the beach several times. I love the peacefulness of the space. The colors are relaxing and the location is very quiet. The parking space in the parking garage is super close to the condo which is really helpful. And there's a great view of Oceanside Harbor from the patio. The grounds are beautiful and well maintained. With lots of walking paths and easy access to the beach. The community is gated which gives a nice feel of safety. It's an easy walk to Mission Blvd where there are many shops and restaurants available. It's also an easy walk to the Harbor with many more restaurants, especially if you like seafood. I look forward to my next stay at Sandra's place!

Excellent place to stay! What a great location and view! Gorgeous. Walkable to so many wonderful places. Great food, beaches, stores, beach boardwalk and more. A close drive to the Zoo, La Jolla and beautiful parks. Not too far from the airport. The place was very clean. We would most definitely stay here again.

Very nice place. This place location is also very convenient, you’ll have everything around you within a 15-20min walk.

Had a nice at Oceanside for my Ironman weekend. The apartment is a walking distance from the pier and the harbor, and the beach.

We love the location and amenities at Paul’s place. Very quiet unit and lovely balcony overlooking the beautiful surroundings. A new hot tub opened by the pool during our stay which was wonderful!

Such an amazing place! My husband and I have been meeting up with our friends for 6 years now and this is the first time a kid has joined us. My son loved the beach and it was so nice to be so close and to have our own space but to also be able to walk to restaurants and things around. Kiran was so kind and was able to answer any questions we had very quick. We’ve already talked about going again!!

What a fantastic location and great condo! Easiest check-in and simple instructions. Beautiful view and the condo is stocked with all that you need. Comfy bed, too.
