★☆ THE NEIGHBORHOOD ★☆The quaint town of Silver Strand beach is a 3/4 mile-long stretch of beautiful coastline. Our home are easy walk to the Harbor and Ocean.

The beach itself is relatively quiet on weekdays but gets a fun crowd on weekends at the north end of the beach. There are plenty of sound waves for surfers with various breaks fit for any skill level. If you want to leave the neighborhood,

So many things to do! You can rent a fishing boat or go whale watching or kayak through the caves of the Channel Islands. You are within blocks of the Bay shops and waterfront restaurants. In addition, Buena Ventura Golf Club is just minutes up the road. Don't miss the massive farmers market on the weekend too! This home will become your favorite getaway gem!

Silver Strand is the last hidden gem of a California beach. Nestled between Malibu and Santa Barbara, it has that super-local feel.  You can watch sailboats, and little electric boats traverse the harbor from the boardwalk.  Across the way, rent a jetski or paddleboat, or go deep-sea fishing. The whale-watching tour happens between December and May.  It will become your favorite place to get away from the daily grind of life.

★☆SOME LOVE FROM OUR GUESTS★☆
Sheila, Sioux Falls, SD
"Temporary Sanity is in a perfect location in Oxnard. Just steps from the channel beach which makes it easy to launch kayaks and stand-up-paddle boards. Also it is just steps away from the Silver Strand which is the best beach EVER! The house is clean and has a private courtyard with a fire pit and a gas cooker. She also provides two kayaks and several life jackets and sand toys. My grandchildren loved it! Lisa was a great communicator and they even welcomed our dog!"

Beach Break with family
Great location. House well equipped. However family room on lower floor, kitchen and dining area plus 2 bedrooms up steep stairs. Not ideal with young children. Listing was accurate, but further details sent by host suggested there was a hot tub. Host explained that the information was ‘generic’ to several properties. This was misleading and unfortunate.

This was the first time that we used Vrbo. We usually stay at hotels, but this was a nice change. It was nice to get away from all the people at X games. Being close to the beach was amazing. The Strand restaurant had amazing food as well.

Leave your worries at the door
This is a beautiful property. This rental is clean and quick access to the beach where you can leave your worries at the door. Conveniently located a few steps away from the beach. We brought our furry family members and we all had a blast. We stayed the week and were energized by the end of our stay. Definitely recommend this property to anyone who need to have their own private beach getaway and get a quick recharge before heading back to the everyday hum drum. Will stay here again in the future.

We loved this house. The location was perfect for getting to the beach. The out side courtyard area was fabulous! The dining room was large enough for my family to come over for dinner. Communication with the host was the best we’ve had yet. We would definitely come back!

Fabulous!!!
My family travels all over the country and stays at vrbo locations. This was the finest location of all the places I have stayed. It was well stocked, immaculate, well designed, fabulous amenities and such a kind host. When my family returns to Oxnard (as we will yearly) this will be where we stay. We have not one complaint!

Family trip
Space was good, 2.5 bathrooms were great, layout of condo is a little unusual. We had a lack of hot water in downstairs shower for some reason, but did not notify property managers until after our stay because of our busy schedule. Seals nearby were heartwarming and funny! Short walk to beach. Love the 2 king beds. Another small issue was no vent in queen bedroom which made temperature regulation a bit of an issue. If we could have closed or covered the downstairs vents, it would force more cool air upstairs. The little harbor near the condo is very pretty!

Temporary Sanity Achieved
We stayed here for the week of Thanksgiving 2022, with our two adults sons and one daughter-in-law. Overall, it was a very relaxing stay, and we appreciated that our fur babies were welcome here. The location is very convenient, and the street is pretty quiet with friendly neighbors. We are originally from Ventura county, and return at least one week every year for vacation in Oxnard, one of our very favorite places in life! The home was very clean and attractively decorated, and Lisa and her housekeeper were very attentive to any questions or needs that we had. They were generous with household paper goods, soaps, etc., which we appreciated, as we have stayed in many vacation rentals that greatly lacked in that area. The kitchen was well enough equipped for us to prepare a Thanksgiving meal, however we had brought disposable aluminum pans, which were a lifesaver, as there are no baking/casserole dishes. Otherwise, there are plenty of pots and pans, utensils etc., and the appliances are good. All that being said, be warned that all of the beds are extremely firm, but not a deal-breaker for us. Also, the living room could use some more seating for a family gathering. The current seating can really only accommodate 3-4 adults comfortably. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would recommend the home to future travelers.

Family Reunion
We enjoyed the beach house very much. The rooms and bedding were very comfortable. Nice to have one master and full bathroom down stairs. Kitchen updated and had all the necessary utensils and cookware. The location was so nice. You can see the sun setting from the family room and balcony. Relaxing outside in the comfy couch and chairs was very nice. The courtyard is enclosed so it felt private and secure. The drive way accommodated 3 cars easily. Plus the garage could park one car. Easy access from garage to the inside stairs that led up to the main living area. Close by casual restaurants and others within 6 miles. We really enjoyed Yolanda’s for Mexican food and Andria’s Seafood. The only concern was the kitchen nook window. It would not close properly. Thank you Lisa for being a wonderful host. We will be back when we can!

The property is very clean, welcoming and well maintained. At one point there were 8 staying in the house & the house accommodated everyone easily. The outdoor area is pleasant with a sitting area and a table accommodating 8 easily. The property is a short walk to the beach. All-in-all it was very comfortable.
