Great family vacation spot!
Great people watching and sounds of the waves! Water pressure in the master bedroom was not the greatest but it did its job :) The other showers were just fine. They had everything you needed to enjoy the beach! Umbrellas, beach chairs, beach towels, coolers, wagon (which you really don’t need since the beach is only a hop, skip away). Everything was in walking distance! I would definitely be coming back again! Our family enjoyed the home and location very much and was able to create memories.

Great property on the beach.
The property was good. I did not enjoy the staircase from the parking garage to the ground floor and took a bad fall. I was injured and had to spend the entire stay in the condo. It would have been nice to have been able to use the elevator to get to our unit.

VERY NICE LARGE UPDATED CONDO!
The unit was big and roomy and stocked with everything you need for your stay! Very very clean! Very safe and secure w underground parking! Couple minor issues with water pressure, loose faucet handle and torn slider screens but nothing to ruin your stay. The only issue was the area is non-stop noisy loud and a ton of people.

Perfect family vacation
We stayed a week and were thrilled with the quality of this rental! Plenty of room for two families of 4. Beautiful view, close to restaurants, stocked kitchen! One thing to note, bring beach chairs if you want them - this property doesn’t have them (not a negative, just an FYI). We will definitely rent again!

Excellent property
We had a relaxing and enjoyable time. The property is very well kept, spacious, and inviting. Very quiet at night. Quick and friendly response from property managers. We were not fond of the vehicle traffic on the strand but I suppose that comes with the location and Oceanside culture. The beach was lovely and well kept.

Beautiful view, but loud & timed hot showers
The view was beautiful but we couldn’t enjoy much because neighbors were smoking marijuana most of the peak times. Was able to get some view time of the ocean but consistant traffic during the day with loud music from cars. The house as beautifully decorated and stocked with needed items. But the doors to the patio were hard to open and close. The worst was all showers had be turned on for a long time prior to getting in to scolding hot water for a few minutes, then to cold water. If you can keep your showers quick , it may work. Beautiful family area for space and gathering. Garage led right to rental and was very convenient. For the price of each night thought would have been alittle more luxurious and better experience.

Spring break trip
We had a lovely time at this property. The views were spectacular. Everyone felt at home here and really enjoyed themselves. If I had any issues would say they should have labeled the broken oven and microwave that looked really nice but did not work. They had another microwave that worked great. However the toaster oven was not the best and made cooking dinner a bit more challenging. There is a trick to get hot water circulating but tip from property maintenance person helped fix the issue. Overall we had a fantastic stay and would come here again.

Beachfront Bliss
My family thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this condo on the beach. It is fully equipped with all needed amenities and the layout was perfect for our group. Although no complaints, the unit could use some enhancements and repairs. Also the doors to the balcony were not easy to secure and it would have been useful to use an elevator as some family members had health issues. Regardless, we will absolutely book again.

Great Beach Access
This place was fine. The pros, Great View Great Beach Access at low tide only (which is true for all of Oceanside) Clean everyone has a bathroom Decent kitchen set up Comfortable sofa and plenty of space for a family Parking garage and secure entry was a plus Cons -Beds are very hard -Very loud most of the time in the master bedroom. People and cars until 1am and starts again at 5am all week-loud car music, talking, street cleaning, garbage pick up under unit (this is an issue for the Strand) -all of the shower controls are broken. You get extreme hot water or cold. The master bath control was the only one that regulated water temp right. -dishwasher did not clean dishes -fire pit was broken -outdoor furniture pictured has been changed out for small sofa and no outdoor dinning table This unit was overall okay but needs maintenance as other reviewers have pointed out.

We had a lovely stay. There are a few things that need to be fixed. The hot water does not automatically come on. Had to ask about what to do. Glass door in front bedroom didn’t open. A man I contacted came and fixed it. And the middle bedroom has loose door jam. It’s falling apart. I know these are minor things but just wanted you to know. Overall it’s a fantastic house. We thank you. Chris. P.S. dealing with property mangers is wonderful. Very helpful.

Amazing Ocean View
This rental is top notch. This was a family vacation that did not disappoint. In fact we loved it so much we added an extra night. Everything exceeded my expectations from cleanliness to the outstanding view. The location is walking distance to the pier, restaurants and stores. There were 3 couples and everyone had their own space. The property management was very quick to respond (had minor questions) and check in and out was easy. Was nice to have 2 assigned parking spaces, in a garage with no space issues. The kitchen had more supplies than I have! We had a great time.

Great upscale place on the beach
This is a really nice 3 bed/ 3 bath condo right on the beach. There is a one-way road (strand) in front of the house, but the sounds of the waves take care of any road noise. Very upscale, very well-appointed. The back bedroom has its own door to the outside and an ensuite. Note that the back patio is pretty small, and out the back is up a hill (thus you can't access from the street to the east, except via staircase to the south). The unit is all on the ground floor, there is a bit of a ramp-up to the unit that could be a challenge for those who have limited mobility. There is an elevator in the unit, but we were not allowed to use it. The parking is in the basement and the front balcony is over the garage entrance (not a sound issue). I would imagine maintenance is a challenge being right on the water. This site could use some focus on maintenance inside and out - several "little" things that don't take away from the experience could be fixed.

Oceanside
Loved the stay at the condo. The condo itself was clean. Beds were comfortable. Plenty of room and supplies. They even have beach towels. One issue that I didn't understand is that they list room for 8 people, but there is sleeping arrangements for 12. And under the policies it states no more than 12 people allowed, but the owner said the city only allows 8 in the condo. The condo itself was convenient in that it is walking distance to restaurants and pier, and you are literally oceanfront. But for the price, you don't enjoy the full view of the ocean from the balcony. Only what is directly in front of you because it sits back from the condos on either side of it. We still enjoyed sitting on the balcony, watching the waves and listening to it at night. Also watching the cars and people pass by; and riding our bikes on the strand. The only complaints were the lack of internet service and no instructions on how to use the TVs. Also, the firepit would not start, and I read a review on 11/2022 that this was an issue back then and obviously has never been fixed. Otherwise, we did have a wonderful time and hope to be able to return again someday.
