Perfect, cozy, amazing beach views!

We loved our stay. The place was cute, quaint, and clean. The bed was cozy. The views were amazing. Falling asleep with the windows open to hears the waves crash was serene. Great location close to restaurants and coffee. Would definitely stay again.

Everything I hoped for...

I was needing an escape from reality and this Villa delivered and then some. It is so charming and comfortable and the continual sound of the ocean immediately set the stage for a restful stay. The Management team was so friendly and helpful. I can't say enough good things about my stay here. Best 4 days I've had in a very long time. Thank you for everything! I will be back.

Listing was very accurate. Location is great with beach and restaurants all within walking distance. Only downside was the bed linens had a funky smell. Otherwise, a lovely stay and would return!

Nice stay, but quite chilly

The property was perfect, except for the fact that the unit has no heat source, other than one portable space heater. After contacting management, they did bring a second space heater, which did help on a very chilly night. Otherwise, would highly recommend and will consider returning in the future. Beautiful spot right on the beach!

Wonderful accommodations for my husband and myself. Beautiful views even when it rained. We appreciated the extra blankets and space heater for the unseasonably chilly weather during our stay.

Best beach cottage get away

Great property with the best ocean view! Everything was in walking distance, including great restaurants, and a small grocery store. We stayed for 2 weeks and really liked having a nice laundry room on site. The property manager was amazing, always making sure we were taken care of. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and will definitely be back!

Wonderful Location

This property is perfectly located right on the water and a very short walking distance to the beach. The property manager was super accommodating and helpful. Lots of local restaurants that are a very short drive or even walking distance away. Great location. Can’t wait to come back!

Fantastic getaway!

This place was fantastic from start to finish. As amazing as they are, the pictures do not do this place justice. Perfect location, charming ambiance, great interior setup, and incredible ocean experience. We had a great time walking the beaches and Oceanside areas, and just people watching from the porch. We will be back for sure!

If you are looking for the perfect little beach cottage for a weekend getaway, this is it!

My teenage son had a medical appointment here in Oceanside and we needed a place to feel home away from home. This little beach cottage was perfect for us and we will be staying here for appointments in the future! So grateful to have found this gem 💎✨✨✨
