This 2 bedroom, 1 bath unit (1000 sqft) has a private backyard, and includes one parking spot in a garage.  Other than the garage ,which is shared with on other unit, there are no other shared areas since you can conveniently enter the rental directly from the garage.  Please note, some noise can be heard. from upstairs,  If sensitive to noise, this could be an issue.

We are cleaning all surfaces with EPA-registered household disinfectants.

Large vehicals over 17 feet long will not fit into garage, and free street parking would have to be used. Typically spots can be found within a 1.5 blocks. Standard size SUVs will fit.

Book with confidence, based on over 200 five-star reviews on my 4-VRBO properties.

This property is located west of Coast Hwy,  and thus an easy 8 minute walk to the beach, or a 4 minute walk to the many different restaurants and shops in the area . Located in the quiet neighborhood of South Oceanside, you will be just over 1 mile away from the Village of Carlsbad to the south and the busy Oceanside pier area just north.  Each bedroom leads to a private backyard with a sitting area, gas weber grill and dining table.

Built by a local builder in 2010 for himself to live in, it has many upgrades such as 10 foot ceilings, custom solid wood doors, and a beautifully tiled bathroom.     In your dedicated garage parking spot, you will have 2 beach bikes (additional bikes available upon request), 4 beach chairs, beach umbrella, boogie boards, and even beach toys for the kids.  I can provide a smaller bike for a child and a pack-in-play/booster seat, if you let me know in advance.  

TVs in all rooms with standard cable channels  including DVR recording capability. High speed wireless WIFI is also provided.

Located less than a 1 mile from two main highways (Hwy 5 and Hwy 78) , it is easy to  visit family and friends anywhere in the area.  

Legoland Amusement Park (10 miles), shopping malls (5 miles), biking, sport fishing, and golfing. Sea World (40 miles), the San Diego Zoo (45 miles), the San Diego Wild Animal Park (35 miles), and numerous other San Diego spots are a short drive or train ride away.

Great little condo, short walk to restaurants, coffee, and the beach. Not as loud as staying on the strand. Very comfy bedrooms. Kitchen/living area is small but worked great for us. We also brought our 7# dog and the backyard was perfect for her. Excellent communication from Warren!

A Perfect Match For Our Needs

Warren’s Oceanside VRBO home was a perfect match for my 21-year-old granddaughter and me. Having our own rooms was important to us. The outside patio was a great place to get some sun and enjoy our coffee. The kitchen/living room/dining room had all the supplies we needed every day too. Also, having a garage was wonderful!! We enjoyed getting to know Oceanside better with an easy walk from the VRBO to Coast Highway with lots of vintage shops and restaurants. I will definitely recommend this rental as well as return in the future!

Good place but the apartment is dirty

the owner is friendly. the house is very well located. only problem, the cleaning especially of the kitchen and the terrace was shocking. the rooms and bathroom were very clean. we immediately contacted the owner who was very embarrassed and refunded us $200 (approximately the cleaning costs). The apartment deserves better maintenance.

South Oceanside getaway

Very convenient location to some great local restaurants and coffee shops. Also, it’s a very short walk to the shore and to Bucc’s coffee and Buccaneer Park. The bedrooms are comfortable and each has its own door to the private backyard. The garage access is a plus. This is a great “home away from home”. We will definitely consider this property if we are in the area again. The host was very responsive and accommodating.

Amazing stay for a beach vacation

My husband and I stayed here after our wedding, and it was the best location for a low-key, relaxing beach vacation. We walked everywhere we needed to go, and we got the beach time we were looking for. There were so many restaurants and cafes nearby. Warren was very proactive and responsive in regards to communication. Excellent host!
