Sunsets at the Beach House - Private Beach

RayRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Clean... I repeat, this place was the cleanest we have ever seen in an Air BnB. No dust, clean floors, clean everything. Beds were super comfortable and having the door open to hear the ocean was therapeutic. So let's run it down: 1. The view was exquisite. 2. Spacious kitchen with kuerig and drip coffee maker, and Plenty of counter space. 3. Brand new gas grill, fire pit, private beach setting. 4. This would be a Really fun place for a family. Bedrooms on 3 floors (the lower bedroom had plenty of beds and futons for the kids, and their own bathroom. The master is on the upper floor with well thought out bathroom (2 sinks, big shower (water pressure was really nice) 5. About a mile to the pier and walking distance to plenty of restaurants. We will Def stay with this company again!

My family thought the house was great, we used the grill outside twice and used the beach chairs and sand toys. Sat next to the cozy fire place every night. The nearby restaurants and coffee shops were great.

Amazing property right off the water. They offer onsite parking but there is also plenty of street parking if no onsite is available. The host was super responsive and accommodating for our last minute booking. The unit was super clean, great balcony overlooking the water. This is definitely a must stay for anyone coming to visit Carlsbad.

*3 Blocks to Beach w/ Beach Gear, Private Backyard

MichelleRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Lauren’s place was a beautiful place for my family. My kids loved the playground in the backyard. We appreciated all of the beach supplies that Lauren provided. Also, the baby supplies were greatly appreciated so we didn’t have to bring them with us. Lauren thought of everything. We admired all of the different plants Lauren had growing in the home. We all felt at home and enjoyed the clean and welcoming space.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Barry’s place. It’s located in a peaceful neighborhood with easy access to many sites in San Diego. The house was very clean and well appointed. We enjoyed relaxing in the tranquil backyard - being welcomed by Barry’s sweet golden retriever, Dorry was a highlight. We will definitely return.

Brian was very nice and responsive no matter what time I had a question. The house was just as the photos pictured. Unfortunately, we couldn’t get the fir pit on but Brian was willing to come fix it right away. Weather wasn’t on our side so we didn’t rush him. We got a lot of compliments from family about how neat it was that Brian had a coffee bar and snack cart set up. Everyone had plenty of room to sleep and enjoyed their stay.

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.

Casa Del Oceano, Solana Beach

MarciaRating, 5 stars7 months ago
We stayed at Pete's place because it has a gorgeous pool (the pool slide was a huge hit), is close to Del Mar racetrack, and is close to the beach/ocean (you can see the ocean from the front yard). We took our two Bichons and felt safe and secure letting them out. We have family in San Diego and had a small family cook out on Sunday. The grill was awesome, and there are lots of fun things to do on the property, front and back yards. We didn't take advantage of the jacuzzi, but it was already heated up. Since the house doesn't have air conditioning, there were fans in the family room and bedroom. Large kitchen, so you can cook and bake if you don't want to eat out all the time. The house is single story, but outside there are lots of levels where you have to go up and down some single steps,so small children would need help and elderly or disabled folks may need help, too. Pete gave great directions about how to access the main entrance, and the self check-in security code.

We need a place locally while some work was done on our home and this location was perfect. Close to downtown but not so close that the sounds of downtown are super loud. The main bathroom is the coolest bathroom I’ve seen! Would love to start again sometime!

Dan's place was as promised - short walk to the beach, as well as great neighborhood restaurants and coffee shops. When we had questions about getting the firepit started, Dan called us back right away and walked us through it. We loved hanging out in the fenced yard and so did our dogs. We'd definitely stay here again.

"Seafoam House" just steps to Surf Beach, Downtown

HellerRating, 5 stars2 months ago
I stayed here for three weeks. It was wonderful. The place was neat and cozy. Walkable to restaurants, stores, museums, and, thrilling to this midwesterner, about a 90 second walk to the beach. Felt totally safe walking around at night. Communication with Rachel was great, and Pete who managed the property responded immediately and was full of helpful suggestions, from where to order pizza to where to get my car fixed. Really enjoyed my stay, and would love to return some day!

Toes in the Sand Beach House!

StephanieRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
We had a fantastic stay at Clarissa’s place! The location is unbeatable—just a row of houses away from the beach and conveniently close to the Village, restaurants, and Legoland. Clarissa is an incredible host, always responsive and attentive to anything we needed. The home itself is well-equipped with everything you could ask for. We only used one bedroom in the back, and the bed was very comfortable. The long driveway behind a small gate was a huge plus, easily fitting our GMC truck and a smaller SUV. This home is also great for larger groups, with plenty of space to spread out. Highly recommend staying here—we’d love to come back!

Your guide to Del Mar

All About Del Mar

The Californian beach town of Del Mar, located less than half an hour north of San Diego, is a popular stop on the world-famous Highway 101. The downtown area consists of an eclectic mix of architecture styles, including whitewashed buildings, beach cottages, and half-timber Tudor-style structures with a European feel. The town has been a popular vacation spot since the early days of Hollywood, when film stars would flock to Del Mar’s expansive beach and saunter down its streets under the swaying palms.

Del Mar is renowned for mouth-wateringly fresh seafood, hip cocktail bars, and luxury shopping, and the shoreline is blanketed with million-dollar mansions. Del Mar Beach is a sweeping stretch of soft sand, which gives way to the glittering cerulean waters of the Pacific Ocean, where surfers come to catch waves in the Californian sun.


The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Del Mar

Southern California’s renowned sunshine means that Del Mar vacation rentals are popular all year round. May and early June can sometimes be a bit cloudy, while late June, July, and August offer the warmest weather, which attracts beachcomber and swimmers to the shoreline. Every June, there is a popular local fair, where the grounds are turned into a thriving center of entertainment for all ages with more than 40 food concessionaires, over 250 vendors selling crafts, carnival rides, and local musicians. During the spring and fall, visitor numbers drop and you may even have the beach to yourself. Winter is when temperatures are at their lowest, but consistent swells make this the best time for surfing.


Top things to do in Del Mar

Del Mar Beach

This pristine two-mile-long beach is popular with sun-worshippers all year round. Surfers line the shore in the winter when the waves are at their highest, while summer brings gentler surf and more a relaxing environment for swimming and paddling. There are also two tranquil oceanfront parks, which offer a scenic setting for a coastal picnic.

Torrey Pines Natural State Reserve

Less than 10 minutes south of Del Mar, this rugged landscape is made up of nearly 2,000 acres of protected state reserve. This is one of the most untamed sections of southern California, with hiking paths passing through untouched natural environments before reaching soaring cliffs offering sweeping views out across the Pacific Ocean. Look out for humpback whales down below, as well as flowering cacti and coyotes.

Del Mar Farmers Market

Sitting just a street from the beach on Camino Del Mar, Del Mar Farmers Market showcases locally grown produce. The stalls have handcrafted artwork, heirloom tomatoes, honey, fragrant herbs, and other locally-created items. Locals pick up seasonal fruit and handmade cheeses for impromptu al fresco dinners by the waves.
