About this property

Family Friendly, 8 Br Beachfront House, Fire Ring in Sand, Walk to Restaurants

  • If you're looking for one of the largest oceanfront beach houses in Oceanside for a family reunion, multi-family vacation, or group getaway, you've found it. This well-loved 8-bedroom, 5-bathroom beachfront home sits directly on the ocean with panoramic Pacific Ocean views, a private sandy yard, and room for up to 16 guests.

    This is not a luxury home—it's a comfortable, clean, and well-maintained family beach house that has created decades of unforgettable memories. Like many homes right on the ocean, it shows some normal coastal wear and is a bit worn around the edges in places. Guests choose this property because of its incredible size, unbeatable beachfront location, spacious gathering areas, and true Southern California beach lifestyle.

    One of the home's biggest highlights is its rare location. There is no street between the house and the beach—step outside to the backyard sand, enjoy panoramic ocean views, watch surfers and dolphins throughout the day, and end each evening with spectacular sunsets.

    The main living room is designed for gathering, featuring a dramatic 20-foot sliding glass wall that opens to the ocean, filling the home with sea breezes and the sound of crashing waves. Whether you're enjoying your morning coffee or relaxing after dinner, the Pacific Ocean is always front and center.

    The spacious kitchen includes quartz countertops, a large island, and everything needed to prepare meals for large groups. A second full kitchen downstairs makes it easy for multiple families or generations to vacation together while enjoying extra convenience.

    With eight bedrooms spread across three levels, everyone has room to spread out while still spending time together. Sleeping up to 16 guests, this is one of Oceanside's best options for large families, reunions, sports teams, wedding groups, and friends traveling together.

    Outside, the private oceanfront yard is where many guests spend most of their vacation. Enjoy meals overlooking the ocean, relax around the fire pit, watch the waves roll in, or simply let the kids play while you soak in the coastal views.

    The location couldn't be better. Walk to Oceanside's restaurants, coffee shops, breweries, boutiques, the Pier, and Harbor. You're also within easy driving distance of LEGOLAND California, SEA LIFE Aquarium, the San Diego Zoo, SeaWorld, and many of Southern California's top attractions.

    The home includes high-speed Wi-Fi, Smart TVs, beach chairs, boogie boards, towels, and other beach essentials to help you settle in and start enjoying your vacation immediately.

    If your priority is a spotless, comfortable, spacious beach house where your entire group can stay together right on the sand, this home is hard to beat. It isn't a luxury showcase—it is a classic, well-loved beachfront home that delivers what matters most: incredible ocean views, room for everyone, a private beachfront yard, and memories your family will treasure for years to come.

    Public beach access at low tide is five houses north at the Marron Street stone steps. The beach area near the pier has dry sand year round

Great house on the beach

Our family very much enjoyed our stay in Oceanside this past week. House is exactly as described and would stay here again. Only bummer is the beach in front of the house is all rocks and no sand, but the sandy part of the beach is a short walk away.

Lovely Beach Home for Family and Friends Vacation on the Ocean

We had a wonderful time staying in this home. The location was beautiful, hosts were very helpful with the check-in process, providing beach towels and sending recommendations for places to eat nearby. While this house has the capacity for 16 people, our group was slightly smaller and there was ample space for relaxation and quiet/personal time.

Great Beach Getaway

We thoroughly enjoyed our weekend stay. We had a family reunion and many of them flew in from the Midwest. The beach access was incredible and we had low tide in the afternoons. Almost everyone had a great time playing in the surf. The property manager, Kim, was great when we needed to call her. All in all a very nice stay. Thank you!

Amazing experience

Without a doubt this ocean front property is one of the best places we have ever experienced. Right on the water, modern supper clean property, panoramic window in the living room, 8 convenient bedrooms many bathrooms, fire pit on the sand by the water and on top of all of that very friendly management. Go for it you will be amazed.

Beautiful setting

This place is right on the beach. We saw dolphins every morning from our back door! The setting was so peaceful, the sunsets, magnificent! Great place for groups as there are plenty of beds and bathrooms. The kitchen upstairs wasnsmall but adequate! There is another kitchen downstairs if you need more kitchen! The beds were super comfortable and clean. My only drawback, there were a couple bugs in the house we had to dispose of. Overall, a great place!

Perfect for our family vacation!

Everything was so great! Location was close enough to everything, but also a quiet wonderful residential area. Home was the perfect size for us with our adult children and their spouses, and our grandkids. The beach access was not far down the road for when we wanted to splash in the ocean. Beach access at the house would have been wonderful too but it was nice to not worry about littles going unsupervised. The private sand at the home was great for ‘treasure hunts’ (there may still be a handful of ‘jewels and coins’ for the next group to find 😉) The rooms and bathrooms were great sizes. The kitchen was exactly what we needed. The downstairs kitchen was great for overflow beverages. We had everything we needed to make some great meals. We did bring our own chef’s knives and glad we did. The view from the great room was unbelievable! Dolphins within the first minutes of our arrival! The sunsets…incredible! If we wanted shade it was there for us. If we needed to soak up some sun, we could do it easily. We are so happy we found this rental! We will definitely be back again. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us!!

Very nice place to stay, could be a bit nicer.

We loved the location, the view was wonderful. The lock for the folding doors did not work. I used a band clamp from the garage to secure the door the first night. I bought some tools, took apart the lock and found it to be corroded to the point it would not move. I was able to free it up and get it working again but it should probably be oiled. It was working when we left. I enjoy fixing things so this just added to my vacation experience. The carpet on the stairs is pretty dirty and needs cleaned or replaced. The upstairs shower tends to let a lot of water get onto the bathroom floor. I am not sure what can be done about this but we dried it up with towels each day. If guests do not dry it up I could see you having issues with water damage. It took us a while to find the washer and dryer in the garage, you should add that to your information package sent to guests.
