Step into Life’s a Beach and feel right at home with its bright, coastal-inspired interior. Unwind on the comfy couch and stream your favorite shows on the large Roku TV using the provided WiFi, or sip your coffee on the balcony while taking in the sights and sounds of the beach just across the street. Board games are available for family fun, and the kitchen includes all the essentials, plus a Keurig, for easy meal prep. A cozy bistro table seats two for dining.

When it’s time to rest, the bedroom offers a queen bed, Roku TV, and sound machine. Just outside, you'll find a charming bunk nook with two junior twin beds. The newly renovated bathroom features a tub/shower combo with a beautifully tiled surround. A guest laundry is conveniently located just two doors down.

When you’re not at the beach soaking up the sun, enjoy Casa Del Mar’s two pools (one heated year-round), hot tub, grilling stations, and shaded picnic areas.

All that’s missing is you; book your stay today!
