The Ultimate Family Vacation Home | Hot Tub | A/C

NatalieRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Helen's home was a perfect fit for our family trip to San Diego. The house was extremely clean and well stocked with all of the basics that we needed in the kitchen (spices, zip lock bags, condiments, etc.) and the bathroom (shampoo, conditioner, body wash). The beds were all comfortable and all were well made with extra blankets and pillows. The living room areas were cozy yet functional. The hot tub was a wonderful way to unwind after running around all day - it was hot a ready to go for us when we arrived. Helen was very responsive and communicated well with us before and during our stay. We would love to stay here again! Bonus tip - There's a Dry Bar and Sephora in the shopping center down the street if you need to get hair/make up done for an event. We were in town for a family wedding and it was nice treat for us to get our hair and make up done.

A perfect stay for families and friends

BrettRating, 5 stars1 week ago
I spent six nights at Brian's place for my son's wedding. We arrived late at night and had no problems checking in. The house is spacious. It had everything that you need including coffee. It is easy to get to. While we didn't use the game room or outdoor games because we were busy and don't have young kids, there are plenty of things for children to do if you stay at the house. The house is located in a quiet neighborhood, I didn't hear neighbors leave for work in the morning. You are a 15 to 20 minute drive to Oceanside Harbor and Carlsbad State Beach if you want to go to the ocean. There are restaurants and grocery stores nearby. It is an older house but they have done a good job with upgrades.

We needed a last-minute place near family in San Diego during the holidays, and this spot was perfect for us. The neighborhood was quiet, safe, and ideal for a stay with a baby. The home was clean, comfortable, and exactly what we needed. The host Naomi was very nice and responsive.

Kids Love Us! Legoland Home With A Pool

MargaretRating, 5 stars1 month ago
This was a great place for my three sisters and I to spend a week of relaxation. We especially enjoyed the hot tub and pool, and it was worth paying extra to have the pool heated. Evenings by the firepit were also relaxing. While the place is setup for families with some of the beds being small, it worked out fine for four petite women. There is plenty of closet space to hang clothes, but no dresser or place to unpack things that don't hang up. The location is very convenient to everything we wanted to see and do, just a short drive to the beaches, shops, and restaurants. It was very comfortable, relaxing, and we felt safe. The Christmas decorations were a nice touch.

Vista 2-Bedroom Apartment | Free Wifi | Near Beach

KarenRating, 5 stars5 days ago
This was a great stay and was comfortable for my family of 4, the kids loved having the twin beds in bedroom. The beds were all very comfortable, each space in the unit had its own individual AC/heat unit which was nice. Great bathroom shower. The only thing we didn't love was that it was on the ground floor so the bedroom windows look onto the main street and anyone can see in, so we kept the blinds drawn the whole time, it was fine as we were not in the unit very much, but just something to be aware of. If we were visiting California again and staying in Vista, I would not hesitate to recommend Alan's place. Close to so many great restaurants, coffee shops, and shopping. We loved going to Belching Beaver, El Kafecito, and Danny's Donuts.

2 bedroom 2 bath apartment with golfcourse view 35

ToniRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
My husband and I stayed for a month., visiting family five minutes away. When we checked in, the place was immaculate! Plenty of towels, paper supplies, etc. We especially appreciated the beach/pool towels. The location is very convenient- walk to a grocery store, CVS, and other spots. Easy access to beaches and other attractions (Sesame Place, San Diego Zoo, Aquarium, etc.) The parking spot is as close as it could get. Kitchen equipped with all the basics. Bedroom furnishing a little sparse- only one nightstand in each bedroom- so we moved the nightstand from the second bedroom into the master. Very quiet and peaceful setting. Loved spending afternoons by the pool/hot tub. The grounds are very well maintained. Laundry facilities (just two buildings away) were clean and well-maintained. Never had to wait for a washer or dryer. Check in was a breeze. Definitely recommend 1669 Live Oak!

Cardiff by the Sea, CA "Always on Beach Time!"

DeirdreRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Judith was very welcoming and helpful. Checking in was easy when we got in late at night. Everything in the house was explained in the book. We had a small injury and I was impressed that there was a first aid kit available since we didn't have a car to go and get supplies without taking an Uber. Beach gear available was great to have as well.

Beautiful Modern 2-Bed in Downtown Vista!

EileenRating, 5 stars5 days ago
Well organized! We had everything we needed. Loved the little Panaderia (Mexican bakery) one block down and bought coffee, juice, etc.there almost daily. We dined at Tavern 508, a great spot for a family or a romantic dinner. We could walk to ice cream places, sushi, and more. We had no noise issues, but I’ve lived in cities before. The muffled traffics noises and the occasionally sound of the Sprinter lulled me to sleep. Nearby jaunts included San Diego Safari Park (free for Seniors in February) and Alga Norte Park. So much to do! Kim was great with the minor questions that we had including charging our Tesla (not on the premises, but no big deal in California).

Nicholas’s apartment was the perfect find for my Southwrn California getaway.

A perfect spot to relax during the day and watch the sunset in the evening. Great restaurants and shops in walking distance, free parking, gracious staff - all around perfect!

Luxury on the Beach

ElliotRating, 5 stars1 month ago
This location is amazing! I have stayed in many places in Oceanside but this was hands down the best yet. It is close to the best beach for surfing in the area, walking distance to the Harbor and downtown restaurants, and right off the highway for easy access. The complex is a beautiful garden with an excellent work out area and many other amenities. Paul's place is nice, although showing a little age around the edges. We had a little trouble getting in initially due to a policy change at the complex but Paul answered his phone and quickly solved this. I would highly recommend this rental.

#6, Ocean View- One Bedroom Condo at the Beach

RobinRating, 5 stars1 month ago
This was our 2nd stay in this building with Sea Breeze. You cannot beat the location! It is not just walkable, the view out the patio is all ocean, there is only a parking lot separating you from the sand. And it can be fun to people watch those come and go in the parking lot as well. The bed is comfortable and the place is spacious. Plus, so many great restaurants to walk to. There are no chain restaurants which is even better. I also recommend taking a food tour experience. Check out the Airbnb experiences that are available during your stay.
