About this property

Carlsbad Beach Cottage - Near Beach, Village and Legoland

  • This Beach Cottage has been completely remodeled. It is perfect for couples, small families and those vacationing alone. It is very comfortable, stylish and cozy with 2 bedrooms and 1 bath sleeps up to 5.

    It is located just steps to the beach. From the cottage it is an easy walk along the beach into the center of the Village with wonderful restaurants, shops and entertainment.

    For young children we are a short distance to Legoland. Carlsbad is one of the best rated family beaches in the U.S.A. and has easy access to all activities in Southern California.

    The master bedroom has a queen bed. Most nights you can hear the surf at night from the master bedroom. The other bedroom has a full and a twin in a bunk arrangement.

    The kitchen has been totally redone with custom granite countertops, beadboard cabinets and new flooring. The kitchen is fully equipped and has a dishwasher, disposal and build in microwave.

    There is a patio and sun deck area with barbecue and outdoor dining.

    The house is equipped with two flat screen TVs. A DVD and High Speed WiFi Internet connection are also included. Also there is a separate laundry room just for your exclusive use. Parking is off-street.

    All kitchen items, towels, linens, beach chairs, umbrella, and boogie boards are provided. A baby Pac-n-Play is available if needed.

    A tradition in the village is to gather at the beach to watch the sunset and look for the Green Flash.

    This home is located in a residential neighborhood and we must respect our neighbors. We love children.

    This property has City of Carlsbad Vacation Rental Permit No. BLRE1242691.

Perfect Getaway Cottage

We were really impressed with this cute cottage and the proximity to the clean and lovely beach. It was so nice to have all the beach gear and we also enjoyed the private patio area out in the back. My husband and I stayed here so our 2 adult sons, who live nearby, could join us. Bob was a very gracious host and we'd love to go back again!

Wonderful Stay!

Location location location! We absolutely loved our stay at this quaint house! It was a short walk to the beach and we loved that you could see the ocean from the kitchen. We had our 3 year old with us and I was able to keep an eye on him easily inside the house, which was perfect! Bob was such a gracious host checking in on us via text and then came to our door to check out the eclipse. It was a very memorable stay and we will definitely be back!

This beach cottage was perfect for our family of 4. We were 1/2 block from a great beach and a 10-15 minute walk to Carlsbad Village. The cottage was very clean and very well-organized. Bob was available if we had a question about something. There’s a well stocked utility room with a washer/dryer plus all the beach gear: umbrellas, chairs, boogie boards, sand toys. We go to Carlsbad/Oceanside about once a year for a beach getaway with other family members and we will definitely be back to this beach cottage.

This is a great location for Carlsbad ; especially for the beach goers. Downtown Carlsbad is walkable within 10 minutes or so. Lots of great restaurants and options of entertainment. The unit has beach chairs and accessories. The actual rental itself is upgraded, extremely clean and very warm and welcoming. Bob, the host, is excellent. He is very quick on answering/responding to communication. Will definitely be coming back here to stay.

This location is fantastic for an easy walk to the beach! Our young family (kids ages 1 & 3) had a very comfortable stay. We brought our own pack-n-play (though one is supplied) and used the cottage's high chair. We enjoyed the list of recommended restaurants. Helpful host. We had a fantastic time here! Highly recommend!

Great location and comfort

This was a perfect escape for our family of four. We were met by the host when we drove in and check-in was a breeze. The place was clean and comfortable and in a perfect location to the beach. There was a place out front that we could wash the sand off and plenty of space away from the street to leave our beach tent, beach shoes, sand toys, etc. The laundry room was a bonus and let us wash out sweaty clothes after the San Diego Zoo and LegoLand. Highly recommend Vigilucci's which is only a few minutes by foot away. We would definitely stay again and maybe check out the COASTER train.
