Sandcastle Cottage 22
An iconic part of Oceanside's history, this unique 1920s cottage sits steps from the sand and sea. Wake up to the sounds of the ocean and walk out onto the sand with a cup of coffee in hand. Your afternoons are best spent exploring The Strand and downtown's restaurants and shops. Carlsbad and San Diego are also within quick driving distance, only expanding the entertainment opportunities. Back at your stay, the studio boasts a surprisingly spacious layout with three beds, providing ample sleeping space for a small group or family. The full kitchen is a standout feature, allowing the convenience of preparing meals with ease. The tastefully decorated main living space enhances the overall ambiance, creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere. Additional interior amenities include a space heater, internet access, and a smart TV. The perfect ending to another day in Oceanside can be spent on the ocean-view patio, the perfect spot for alfresco dining and cocktail cheers.
