Walkable area

Guests say this area is easy to get around.
Mornings in South Oceanside begin with ocean air & locally roasted coffee, as surfers paddle out & early risers stroll the beach. By midday, bikes cruise past murals, sandy feet wander into local shops, & the scent of tacos & wood-fired pizza drifts from favorite spots. As the sun dips low, evening beach walks capture the easy rhythm of South O life, where the day winds down with good food, good company & a craft beer or two — all part of the effortless charm this neighborhood is known for.

The space
Tucked inside a quiet courtyard just blocks from the beach, this modern two-bedroom suite blends clean lines with the comforts of a well-designed retreat. Whether you’re unwinding after a day in the sun or heading out to explore South Oceanside’s eclectic food & surf scene, this space is your calm between adventures.

The open living area flows into a fully equipped kitchen, stocked with everything you need to prepare coffee, simple meals or a picnic to take to the sand. Outside, your private patio — complete with a comfortable outdoor couch — offers a quiet spot to sip your morning coffee or relax under the stars after a day well spent.

Both bedrooms feature Tuft & Needle mattresses, offering modern comfort with understated style, while the living space keeps things uncluttered — designed to feel like a breath of fresh air after a sun-soaked day outside. A 55" smart TV is ready for you to log into your favorite streaming apps & settle in for a relaxed night.

Just beyond your door, South Oceanside’s creative energy & laid-back coastal spirit come together effortlessly — where indie cafés, craft beer spots & local taco shops sit next to surf boutiques & vintage stores. Locals cruise to the beach with boards in hand, & the whole neighborhood hums with the easy rhythm of life by the water.

Carlsbad Village is just 5 minutes north, offering even more dining, shopping & charm, while LEGOLAND is 10 minutes away — making this suite a perfect home base for families, couples & friends. And when it’s time to head further, downtown San Diego & the airport are within 45 minutes, keeping everything within easy reach.

Guest access
This suite is completely private, with its own entrance, kitchen, living space, bathroom & private patio. The property itself is home to a small collection of vacation rentals, all tucked inside a quiet courtyard setting. While you may see other guests coming & going, your suite — and your patio — are entirely yours to enjoy.

Other things to note
Due to severe pet allergies, we do not allow pets, even service and emotional support animals.

There is a split unit in the main area of the apartment. It is large enough to heat or cool the whole apartment but you will need to keep the bedroom doors open to regulate the temperature in all rooms.

NO parties or gatherings of any kind allowed.

This suite comes with 1 off street dedicated parking spot, or plenty of street parking.

The suite has a Smart TV, allowing you to log in and stream your favorite apps.
