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.

Great Place!
This was a great place to stay, pics are accurate. I agree with the other postings that the Unit C isn't obvious when you 1st arrive. Walking distance to Carlsbad Village, which is already a great place to tour and be at the beach. Definitely recommend.

Very loud!
I would ABSOLUTELY never return to this property! This is an old building with paper thin walls and ceilings. The 615 am wakeup incessant running and jumping on the furniture from the kids upstairs was exacerbated by the loud music by the room next to us at 130am. 4 hours of nightly sleep for the first three days. Management tried their best to get folks to be courteous, and respect the reasonable 10 pm to 10 am quiet hours...but to no avail

Beautiful View...But
The house number was difficult to find. Stair accesses slacked handrails and lighting, and were dangerous. Unit identification was missing. Windows needed cleaning. Blinds had bent and broken slats and could not be raised so the view could be appreciated. The heater was badly rusted. Bathroom tub lacked non skid surface/mat and safety supports. There was no handbook on operation of any equipment/TV, local convenience and emergency services.

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.

Affordable, but reason for this
This unit was better stocked, furnished and together than Unit B. Almost 24 hours with no hot water, construction we were not told about which they had to remove the BBQ and one of the patio sets for the last few days was annoying. This unit took the bulk of the noise of the workers at 6 AM. I will say once I said that was not what time we found acceptable they started later. The house looks better on the one side they had finishes. Why in high season and most expensive is beyond me. Poor timing

Good location, comfortable, great views
Nice unit, comfortable, fireplace was a nice feature. Great views of the ocean, sea life and suefers. Nice walk to town. Disappointments were, kitchen cookware incomplete, no sauté or very pans, no vegetable peeler, which was all needed. The 2 firepits were not functional at all. Old, dirty, broken/missing parts. Was cold, would have enjoyed them, it was a huge disappointment.

Small issues
The condo isn’t marked, so we had some issues finding the right one, when I called your office, the lady told me the system was down and that she would call me back, she never did, also the toaster doesn’t work and the shower head let’s put very little water.

Great place!
Absolutely loved the location of this condo! Close to the Carlsbad village & Oceanside and the views out of every single window are spectacular. I also love that you can bear the ocean all night long! It’s beyond a relaxing environment. The only downfall for me personally as I was traveling with a newborn and my mother right before her hip replacement was that there are quite a bit of stairs to access the unit. I definitely could’ve overlooked that while looking at the ad but I just don’t recall seeing stairs to get into the unit itself. Aside from that minor detail, I loved this condo and hope to stay again!

Great location
We had a great stay, the inside is nicely updated with a few exceptions. The outside could definitely use some updates, feels like a waste of a beautiful space. The walls are thin so we did hear our neighbors quite a bit, both next to us and above us, luckily we had a sound machine for my kiddo. There were minor things like they had a hair tie keeping some cabinets closed, the shower head was rusted, the shower curtain will blow into you aggressively during your shower (but amazing water pressure), oh and the hair dryer was broken which did frustrate me because I was getting ready for date night and couldn't dry my hair. The location is amazing, we were able to walk to local restaurants and the beach is beautiful.
