Additional things to know abut the property:

THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO SMOKING IN THE HOUSE - NO EXCEPTIONS!
(Forfeiture of full Security Deposit if anyone smokes in the house).

NO PETS ALLOWED AT THE HOUSE.

Security cameras are being installed on the outside of our home in March 2023 behind the house, on the walkways and front of garage facing the street. NO CAMERAS are installed on the ocean front balcony (only on the lower perimeter of the property.)

The house is located on The Strand. Since the house is located so close to the water, City of Oceanside has placed large rock boulders between The Strand and beach to help protect the houses during High Tides. (Small staircase for beach access is two houses over)

The beach size in front of the house depends on mother nature. Sometimes the beach is large and life guards drive their trucks on the beach, people lay out or play games on the beach. Other times the tide is high and the water comes all the way to the top of the rocks. We can not guarantee the beach size during your stay. It's all up to Mother Nature. There is always a nice sandy beach approximately 5-7 minute walk towards the pier.

Our house is located next to full time neighbors. Absolutely no parties or events at the house. Please be considerate and keep the noise down. If you have excessive noise, you will be asked to leave. Please be considerate of neighbors and only park in designated areas.

We want to thank you for considering our home for your vacation. It is an incredible property and the pictures do not do it justice. You just need to pack your clothes and food, and you are in for an amazing experience. Have a happy vacation!

We had a great week in Oceanside at this beautiful property. The highlights include sitting on the deck to enjoy the view of the whitewater, the easy walk to downtown, and watching a movie downstairs. I highly recommend this home and will be back! Debbie was great and easy to communicate with.

Absolutely beautiful stay in Oceanside! This home is perfect for a beach stay (loaded with chair, beach boards, sand toys and towels) and the view of the ocean from the house is stunning. We had a blast being on on the ocean side boardwalk - the surfing, people watching + wildlife (dolphins and seals) was wonderful! I would absolutely stay here again.

Owners provided a first class, well stocked house and made sure we were comfortable. Views were great. Since the tide was high during the day we had a short walk to a sandy beach. There are steps to the ocean two houses north. Parking for four cars was convenient. We plan to return in 2024.

Our family of 10 loved everything about our weeklong stay! The home is beautiful, spacious, and most importantly, right on the beach. The balcony has a sliding door that opens up the whole house to a spectacular view. The owners Debbie and Robert are wonderful to work with and really care. A truly memorable experience. Thank you Debbie and Robert!!

We loved this house and the view. The hosts were excellent - they gave us ideas for activities and helped with any questions I had. The sound of the waves was so relaxing. I don't think I've ever stayed anywhere that the beds and sheets were as comfortable as home. They had lots of closet space and hangers.

We had an amazing time visiting Oceanside for the Ironman 70.3 race. Staying on The Strand was fantastic for our family to watch us race, and then relax for the next week taking in the amazing ocean views. Debbie was great to work with before, during and after our stay. I would highly recommend staying here for anyone looking for a great clean property that's big enough you feel at home and not cramped. The Ocean views were amazing, close to the pier and beaches. The home was very clean and provided everything we needed during our stay. I will definitely come back and stay here again.

First things first, the property description was so accurate that when we arrived we knew exactly how everything would be laid out and what would be provided during our stay. Secondly, Robert & Debbie genuinely understand the concept of a home-away-from-home and made us feel welcome from the moment we confirmed the booking and through check-out. There were 12 of us (8 adults & 4 kids, ages 3-11), and there was plenty of space for all of us without feeling crowded or cramped. Having the extra refrigerator space & oven downstairs made Thanksgiving cooking a breeze! And finally, you cannot beat the view and beach access! The steps down to the beach are practically right across the road (The Strand) and YES, there is a high tide where the waves are crashing against the rocks. BUT there is naturally a LOW TIDE...which during this time of the year was in the 2-3 hours before sunset each day so every afternoon we had our own private beach just steps away from this beautiful home! Thank you so much for everything, Robert & Debbie...we WILL be back for our next beach vacation to O'side!
