WHAT’S NEARBY

With lush landscaping, a koi pond, and loads of kid-friendly activities, North Coast Village is ideal for grownups and tykes alike. Luxuriate in the community’s two spa Jacuzzis, splash around in the pool, or challenge a relative to a mean game of eight-ball or ping pong (the condo has paddles and balls).

Other amenities include free gym access, sauna, rec room with TVs, putting green, and commercial-grade BBQ grills for community use. You’ll also find on-site laundry rooms, rentable clubhouse with a kitchen and bar, and 24-hour patrol for your peace of mind.

When you want to get out, you have 10 spectacular beaches to choose from, just minutes from the complex.

The kids will flip when they find out that six of the country’s most famous theme parks are less than an hour away, including Legoland, the San Diego Zoo’s Safari Park, SeaWorld, the San Diego Zoo, even Disneyland and California Adventure. You can slip a little culture into their vacay with a visit to historic Mission San Luis Rey, Oceanside Surf Museum, Oceanside Museum of Art, and the Museum of Making Music, all conveniently close by.

We kindly ask our guests to sign our property registration card once their booking is confirmed.

It was wonderful!
Everything was there to make our stay perfect. We spent time with family and enjoyed the beach and Oceanside. It was wonderful. Everything about the unit was accurate. We'd recommend this to anyone wanting to be close to the beach and comfortable.

Average Rental experience
The location is key as it is close to the beach and walkable to shops, restaurants, and bars. Unfortunately, the unit did not have AC (a surprise to us). It also did not have typical amenities as other rental properties such as no beach towels, no coffee or creamer provided. The guard at the checkin station was rude to us as we were 15 min. for early check. To spend this type of money on a vacation, our expectations were not met.

Great location
Property was perfectly located steps fron the beach. Apartment was clean with a gated parking area steps feom my unit. Without AC it felt a bit warm and the ceiling fan in the master did not go high. We had ro open windows at night. It was noisy at times. Overall it was a nice place in a nice community close to many restaurants a short drive away.

Just as described
Great setup for a small family. Can see ocean from balcony. Easy access from parking garage. Pool was warm for January which we really appreciated. Sauna is awesome. There is a shared sauna and also the woman’s locker room has a private one as well. Unit has a pack n play in it!! Yay. They said they didn’t have one but this property had one in the closet. Go to banana dang for fun banana smoothies and coffee. Or ding tea for some really special boba and matcha. If you have a car.

This property was perfect for our long weekend stay! The place was very clean and comfortable. Everything we could need was there. Communication with our hosts couldn’t have been better. The location is really great. Most nights we enjoyed the short walk to many amazing restaurants. The proximity to the beach was our favorite part of the property. We will be back!

Wonderful Location
Could not ask for a better location! Just steps to the beach. Condo was clean, although the cleaning company forgot to remove a duffle of dirty laundry. Upon contacting property managers, it was resolved. The check in and check out process could be streamlined. Picking up keys at office and depositing keys back to office upon check out seems a bit antiquated now. But overall, excellent vacation.
