Beachfront vacation rentals in California

Very accommodating - listed for three nights we asked for two nights and Robert and Arlina made it happen.

Location! This rental is walking distance to everything in the heart of Oceanside. Steps to the beach, short walk to all restraunts in downtown Oceanside, .75 miles to the harbor. Rental was plenty big for 2 adults. Highly recommended! Perfect place to stay for a wonderful getaway!

We love this place! Perfect stay for us and our dogs! Thank you, Susan.

It was an amazing place to stay with beautiful rooftop views. Clifton was very helpful with checking and with any questions I had. Although beware. Like other reviews the only thing is there is at of stairs as every rooms and living room are on separate floors. It’s definitely not a complaint for me but you can find it tiring after a long day out. There was clean linens, towels, and toiletries available. Has a gas stove that worked great with some pans included that we made French toast with. The area also great and felt safe 24/7. It had garage parking which is great as the area can fill up during the day time with people going to the beach. I’d highly recommend the place, especially if staying for multiple days or with other people. It’s a great roomy location that I hope to be able to return to sometime.

Clean, well-appointed, spacious home less than a block from the beautiful Twin Lakes Beach. You can see the beach from chairs on the front lawn. We were lucky enough to be there during the lighted boat parade (first Saturday in December), so we watched the lighted boats in the water from the front yard. Everything was easily accessible. The home includes many amenities (washer/dryer, cooking supplies, games, pack n play). The room with the bunk beds has a separate bathroom, making it really nice for families with older kids. Great stay and I hope we can return.

Wonderful stay in OB at Catrina’s house. Walking distance to everything you need, home had everything we needed for our stay. Catrina was in touch making sure we had everything we need, would stay again without a second thought.

Millie’s place was at a perfect location walking distance to the beach, Millie was very helpful when needed. Would definitely come back. Sea world, the Marina and old town San Diego worked perfect for our stay.

Excellent one bedroom unit right on the beach with the perfect location. Exactly as described and ideal for a quick weekend away. We will be back soon I’m sure!

Great location between the harbor and the beach with a nice pool and hot tub

We had a wonderful short getaway at Sue’s place! The condo is just steps from the beach, pool, and jacuzzi. Falling asleep to the sound of the waves was relaxing, and the ocean breeze was very refreshing. It was exactly what we needed to reset and recharge. Everything was just as described, and we would stay here again! Thank you, Sue!

This Airbnb stay was an absolute gem! The location couldn't have been more perfect. It’s just a short, pleasant walk away from a pristine and quiet beach where we could unwind and relax without the crowds. The neighborhood itself exudes tranquility and safety, making it an ideal retreat. Plus, it’s conveniently close to all sorts of amenities, from local eateries to ethnic shops. Norma and Uni truly went above and beyond. They were incredibly responsive, promptly addressing any queries and catering to our needs. Their attentiveness and hospitality added a personal touch that made our stay even more enjoyable. Whether you’re seeking a peaceful beach getaway or a cozy base to explore the area, this place checks all the boxes. I highly recommend it and would definitely stay here again!

This was a great location, we loved being right on the beach and the walking path. The apartment was easy to access and had everything we needed, including walkable restaurants and parking. Tina was responsive, and helped us to find everything we needed.

This place was nicer than the photos and absolutely perfect for a girls weekend. Everything was well equipped and labeled. The location was very quiet and peaceful with great access to a quiet beach. You definitely need a car as it's a little isolated but that added to the charm.

A wonderful and private location! An ideal home to relax with a cup coffee in the morning with a great view of the waves. The home was comfortable! Definitely, plan to be back. Erin was always responsive and was great in explaining all the details. Highly recommend this home!

My family and I are absolutely thrilled about our stay at Andy’s! The view from the unit was stunning, super easy beach access, lots of amenities on site. Many places within walking distance. The provided binder was extremely helpful with information about the property as well as recommendations. The unit itself was beautiful, there were games, the kitchen had everything we needed. The bed in the master was very comfortable. Overall, we were very happy with our stay and would absolutely stay again.

The house was the perfect size for our group (two adults, two teens). The backyard was lush with mature plants, which made it feel very private, and the pool was bigger than we expected it to be. The house itself was clean, well stocked, and the beds were comfortable. The house was a quick drive from everywhere we went in Oceanside. The bathroom off the primary bedroom was a bit small, but manageable. Katie was a great host and I would stay here again!

Highly recommended, the view deserves a video instead of a picture. I wanted to be as close as I could to the water & I definitely got it. The kitchen is perfect for small meals. The shower was hot, good pressure & spacious. Great place for couples.

This place was HEAVEN!! We fell in love with the place. The place was spotless and looked exactly like the photos. A 15 min walk to restaurants and shops. We enjoyed the view from the couch every morning and the view from the lifeguard chairs in the evening. The Airbnb hosts were helpful and responsive. This place felt like home and can not wait to book again! Thank you!

We’ve stayed at this oceanfront home three times now, and every visit has been absolutely perfect. The views of the water are stunning—whether you’re sipping coffee in the morning or watching the sunset, it never gets old. The beach is just steps away, which makes everything so easy, especially with kids. The outdoor shower is an absolute plus for rinsing off the kids after a beach day! The home itself is always spotless and really well cared for. It’s super quiet and peaceful, which makes it a great place to relax. It’s kid-friendly, which we appreciate as a family. There are toys and beach supplies provided. This place truly feels like a home away from home for us—we can’t wait to come back again!

Great location near Jedediah Smith and Prairie Creek State Parks. Amazing ocean views. Fit our family's needs.

Definitely the best Airbnb we’ve stayed at. The house is right on the beach. The property was well taken care of. We really enjoyed the showers. They were modern with multiple jets and rain shower head. There was also this attention to detail with lightening. There were multiple mood lights around the home, which made it feel cozy at night. We enjoyed family time around the fireplace in the evenings listening to the waves. Nice private parking spot. Rent a smaller car if possible. California parking spots are commonly tight. We’ll definitely be back to this property!

We had a beautiful 5 days at Ann’s place. We are hosts ourselves and still everything exceeded our expectations. We partied on the beach with friends but absolutely loved the 9pm quiet time. So nice not to have loud parties and beach activity disturbing our zen. We could enjoy the sunsets in peace and tranquility. We are already planning our next years trip. 5+++ stars for Anna and her family, we felt right at home!

We enjoyed our stay. It was the perfect location with a ton of fun things to do for my daughters.

We had the best time!! Everything was just as described. The view from the patio is lovely and the beach is right in front of you. We will definitely stay here again when we are in town.
