It is very large and spacious. The layout is excellent. It never felt as if you didnt have any breathing room. All you hear are the waves. All day. Loved every second of it. Have stayed here before and I plan to come back. Prompt attention from the owner/management regarding the heater. Prompt and professional attention. We thank you for trusting your home to us for a relaxing time!

Great location, perfect accommodation for a couple. Easy walking to restaurants and the Coaster. For groceries you'd need to drive. Big plus is the beach is right out the door.

This was EXCALLY what we were looking for! A house right on the beach. Just like the photos you walk right out your back gate and are on the beach. All day and night you just hear the waves crashing, it was perfect. The unit was actually bigger than expected. Morning coffee and wine nights on our balcony were amazing.

Truly on the beach.

Great spot but.....

Place was in an outstanding spot, right on beach, waves crashing, great location. Clean and spacious. Good parking. The problem we experienced is the noise. Paper thin walls all around, including ceiling, so you heard everything your neighbors were up to. That is the only negative I would comment on. If you don't mind some background noise, till about 10pm, the location again is awesome!

What a disappointment?

Pluses areLocation, View, Comfortable Bed, Lots of Towels, BBQ works well. Negatives:Lots of rust in heating unit and bathroom shower, Cookware was falling apart, MAIN ROOM BLINDS WOULD NOT RAISE, so could not see view properly, Built in Microwave is out of order. While they do have a small replacement microwave, the built in one not working means that there is no light or fan over the stove top. Outside light sensor on balcony kept turning on and off all night, One of the other suites has access to the balcony in front our your bedroom window. So the other suite tenant walked out in front of us while we were still in bed. Very poor sound insulation in upper suite so that we could hear every move they made. Finally the garbage cans outside were overflowing when we arrived for our 3 day stay. It looked like the garbage had not been put out for well over a week if not longer. The owners request that if you are there on Monday to put the garbage out which we would normally be happy to do. We had to pile our garbage on top of a very full bin and wheel the cans out onto the street. Not impressed

Great location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Unit C that we stayed in is perfect for my husband and I, this is the second time we've stayed in this unit. Right on the beach, walking distance to Carlsbad Village, has everything we need. The unit was clean, bed very comfortable. The unit is starting to show some wear & tear on the outside due to the weather, and a couple of things on the inside that will need fixing, but this didn't bother us, we were there for the view and beach access. We saw dolphins a couple of times and that was cool! We will definately stay there again!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This location was perfect and the view was unmatched. Just what we needed to feel like we "lived on the beach" to rest and rest while listening to the waves crash day in and out was perfect! The decor and esthetic are nicely updated. However, there were a few things that could be improved. With such a great location and eye for decor, finish it out. Get rid of rusted-out vents and baseboards, and fix the toilet.

This is the perfect little getaway for two! You have your own parking spot and a perfect view of the ocean. The private patio and the bedroom view were priceless! We just love the little oasis and the backyard was wonderfully packed with all kinds of chairs and loungers. The kitchen had everything I needed to cook, and the property was very clean with lots of towel towels and extra toilet paper!My only suggestion for next time is stronger Wi-Fi. However, listening to the ocean is priceless.

view & sounds were great. Kitchen was good. I like to have a regular toaster. under the sink was wet and damp. could not get hot water in the kitchen or the bathroom sink. the shower yes but the connection of the pipe to the personal shower leaked and was squirting to the sealing.Bed was great.My family have stayed at the beach front properties on ocean blvd for 27 yrs Thanks! Needs a table and chairs on the balcony. The couch is too low and the railing blocks the view
