About this house rental


Come stay at our recently remodeled Beach House right on the famous and centrally located Pacific Coast Highway 101. Discover the only private beach in Carlsbad right across the street from your front door. Short and easy 2 minute walk to beach.

After spending time in the surf and sand, our beach house is the perfect place to unwind! Free wi-fi and smart TVs are available in each bedroom. Hungry? Cook something up in our fully outfitted Granite Kitchen or hop in your car and take a short drive into Carlsbad Village and enjoy one of the amazing restaurants nearby. (We will leave you a list of our personal favorites!) Afterwards, if you're feeling adventurous explore the local nightspots where you can enjoy a margarita by the fire pits, or maybe you'll opt for a romantic stroll along the beach under the stars instead.

When you return home relax in the jacuzzi bathtub or light a fire in the fireplace. Sink into the softest sofa known to man and watch a movie with your loved ones. When you just can't keep your eyes open any longer sprawl out on one of our Queen sized 'Heavenly' Westin Beds and fall asleep to the sound of Ocean waves.

If you've got little ones, bring them! Our large enclosed backyard is lush and perfect for kids who like to play. Not only that but Lego land, Lego land Water Park, and the Sea life Aquarium are less than 2 miles away and very easy to find! If you're up for a little bit of a drive you can take them to the San Diego Zoo, the San Diego Zoo Safari Park, Knott's Berry Farm, Sea world, or Disneyland all less than an hours drive away.

There is so much to do in Carlsbad including lots of activities for those seeking a quiet getaway without children too. Make sure you check out our favorite things to do in Carlsbad in the 'Activities' section. We also live in Carlsbad and know the area very well and would be more than happy to answer any questions you might have by email, text, or phone if you choose to stay with us!

Activities/ Our Favorite Things To Do Nearby

The Beach!!! Carlsbad State Beach was rated one of the top 10 beaches in the US by Traveler Magazine and is located only a 5 minute drive away. Right across the street from our house is the only private beach in Carlsbad, Terramar Beach. So much to do at the beach: Dig your toes in the sand, get a tan, go for a swim, surf, boogie board, play volleyball, explore the tide pools teeming with life, make sandcastles with the kids, join the joggers and bikers along the seawall, enjoy a bonfire with friends and family, or just sit on a bench and people watch! Just remember to bring your sunscreen!

Visit the luxurious Day Spa at La Costa Resort - We love to spend time at the Day Spa. Men and women have their own facilities each with their own indoor Sauna, Steam room, and Jacuzzi. Outside you can meet up with your spouse by the pool, roman waterfalls, and outdoor jacuzzi. We love to wrap up our spa days with a good massage and then eat at one of the chic restaurants in the resort. The resort is gorgeous and perfect for a romantic date or a girl's day. Google it.

Shopping: The beach house is about 5 minutes away from a huge outdoor shopping mall called the Carlsbad Premium Outlets. This mall has both affordable and high end stores like: Coach, Dooney and Burke, Juicy Couture, Lacoste, Barneys New York, Ralph Lauren, BCBG Max Azria, Banana Republic, DKNY, Gap, BabyGap, Carters, and Crate and Barrel.
My favorite place to shop, however, is 'The Forum' about 10 minutes South off Leucadia BLVD. They have a Z Gallerie, Sur La Table, Bed Bath and Beyond, Anthropology, H&M, Urban Outfitters, Black House White Market, Mac Cosmetics, Ulta, and an Apple Store. Also nearby is a Target and plenty of amazing restaurants! Costco is 5 minutes away.

World Class Golfing at: Aviara's Four Seasons (Carlsbad), La Costa Resort (Carlsbad), The Crossings at Carlsbad, Encinitas Ranch (Encinitas), and world famous Torrey Pines (La Jolla).

Dining Out: We love dining out so we will leave you with a list of our favorite restaurants and where to find them. However if you're just looking for something convenient, restaurants under 5 minutes away include: Islands, King's Fish House, BJ's Brewery, Karl Strauss, Claim Jumper, TGIF's, PF Changs. There are also several fast places nearby like Starbucks, Rubio's, and California's Exclusive In-n-Out Burger (if you haven't tried an In-n-Out Burger then you really haven't lived).

For Kids: Legoland, Legoland Water Park, Sealife Aquarium, Playwerx (an indoor jungle gym in Carlsbad), San Diego Botanic Garden in neighboring Encinitas (cheap admission but tons for little kids/toddlers to do), La Costa Resort Waterpark, and also a variety of beautiful public playgrounds including some on the beach.

This home is in a perfect location, a short drive or bike ride to Carlsbad town center and a walk to the beach. Very well taken care of and decorated inside with everything you need, including beach chairs, towels, etc. The backyard is fenced with lush landscape. A perfect oasis for relaxing. With 3 bedrooms, this is perfect for a couple’s getaway or family vacation. The owner was on top of things immediately with communication and made our stay a great experience. We will definitely seek to stay here again in the future.

We had a lovely time at this Carlsbad house. The location is lovely. There is a beach close by with stairs to go down and then tamarack beach a short drive. We found the location great for anywhere on the coast from San Diego up to Oceanside. The house itself is the perfect size for us 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The house was pretty clean just missed a few little areas like food on the tv stand and the chairs in the kitchen. The backyard is so nice to relax and there is a small ocean view from the front yard. The only cons are it’s on a busy street this didn’t end up being a huge deal but we definitely heard some noise. Wouldn’t prevent me from staying again. The kitchen table was pretty wobbly but functional. And the fridge is old and has some broken parts but it worked fine. None of those things discount this lovely rental. We really enjoyed our stay. And the owner is so very nice and helpful.

Our stay was very comfortable and perfect for our wedding weekend in Carlsbad. The location is awesome with a small view of the ocean and close to everything you need! The house was clean, comfy cozy, and had everything we needed. Some of the wall outlets weren’t working but other than that it was absolutely perfect! The host was responsive and accommodating! Definitely would recommend and stay here again!

My family of 4 adults and two toddlers stayed at this beautiful home for a week. The house is just as pictured, very charming décor. The back yard was perfect for my two active grandkids. We even hosted a family bbq with my niece's family in town and everyone was impressed that we had such a nice yard. The only thing I would suggest is maybe a fire pit? It got chilly at night and we Arizonans aren't used to that in the summertime! The one downside was that Carlsbad Blvd runs right in front of the property, which made it very noisy if the front door was open to catch the cool breeze. At night you could hear the road noise from the front bedroom. Luckily my daughter packed her soothing sounds machines which helped quite a bit. The train whistle was not a big issue...present but more like background noise. My husband and I liked the layout of the converted garage suite. It gave us privacy and my daughter's family as well. The location otherwise was good for a short drive to 2 or 3 beaches, one about 1/2 mile or so to the north which has a sandy beach but bigger waves (and a porta potty)and one about 1/2 mile south with wet sand (and sand fleas). The beach access closest to the property is beautiful but more of a surfer's beach. It has a small cove surrounded by cliffs at low tide and at high tide the surf comes to the bottom of the stairs (there are 60 of them). I found that beach great for finding shells and 2 pairs of sunglasses, but not for small children. We went to Moonlight beach in Encinitas for more of a family friendly beach (read sandy beach, showers and real bathrooms, gentler waves). There are no restaurants or stores within walking distance but Ralph's and Costco are a short drive away and Carlsbad Village is also close, but good luck parking there! There's so many good restaurants in that area. On Wednesday evenings they have a farmer's market and it was fun roaming around looking at and tasting all the different locally grown harvest, especially the strawberries. This was a really nice home base for our southern California visit. We felt really comfortable there. Thanks for letting us stay here!

Well appointed sweet beach home, with very attentive hosts! Tamar was readily available for any questions or issues. We had a small plumbing issue that was quickly resolved and they made everything right. We recommend this Carlsbad gem 😊!
