We had a wonderful time. We shared with two other couples and there was ample room for all. Greatly appreciated the underground storage and parking. We brought surfboards, six bikes, beach chairs and umbrellas and still had room leftover. The floor plan was spacious and well laid out. The second floor deck afforded a panoramic view from the pier to the south side of Carlsbad. Morning coffee on the deck included entertainment by the surfers getting their morning rides in. Plenty to do within walking/biking distance. Everything was provided (cooking utensils, silverware and china, bedding linens, towels, wifi etal). the property manager was very accommodating and pleasant to deal with. All in all a beautiful stay. Could well turn into a yearly excursion.

Had a wonderful family vacation at this awesome condo. The kitchen has everything you need for cooking and eating in. The view of the ocean and sunset was amazing. Boogy boards, beach umbrellas and chairs were provided and stored at ground level so you don't have to drag everything upstairs. Plenty of beach and bath towels are provided. The beach is ten steps away. Huge patio with plenty of seating and a great lounge chair for laying out. Bedrooms are very spacious and the beds/bedding were very clean and comfortable. The place is huge and will not disappoint. We will definitely stay here again.

This is just a wonderful condo with plenty of room to stretch out a bit. Truly this property provided everything that you would need- a home away from home! Huge kitchen, fully equipped, large dining table for everyone to gather round. I appreciated that there was a huge sectional in the living room with additional chairs so you could comfortably seat a large gathering- when they say this unit will accommodate 12 people- it will! The property was beautifully appointed, clean, and well maintained. Fantastic patio overlooking the beach and sunsets, 2nd floor unit so you could still have your privacy while watching the activity, literally a plethora of things to do within a short distance. To top it off, the property manager and owners were very responsive. Thank you for a great vacation!

Went with three other families and had a great time. Amazing kitchen with Wolfe range and all the details. Place is wider and nicer than the picture suggest, huge patio! The best part was the access to the beach. The break was perfect for amazing boogy boarding and surfing and the kids and adults loved it! I wouldn't say Oceanside is the cutest town but we mainly stayed at the condo and beach. The suppplies for the beach were amazing....Tommy Bahama chairs, umbrellas and lots of boogyboards and towels.

Thank you for your comments, we're so glad you enjoyed your stay! We hope you come back again soon!

Excellent for Families and terrific view

The beach house was the perfect getaway! Beautifully furnished, comfortable, clean and could not have been a better location! The magnificent sunsets were the perfect end of each fun filled day! Can't wait to return in October! I will definitely recommend to friends. Thank you for sharing your beautiful property.

This condo on the strand was our Easter relaxation dream come true. The pictures are exactly what you get. The place was immaculate with high end furniture, appliances and ambiance. My face lit up as I walked through the front entrance with my daughter and three grandchildren. It was wonderfully spacious for my 19 year old granddaughter to have some alone time, my 12 year old grandson to enjoy his games and our four year old granddaughter to run around and play. The deck is a dream with beautiful inviting furniture and comfy fire pit. The kids enjoyed roasting marsh mellows and my daughter and I loved the people watching. The final day of our trip we tried to stay longer. We didn't want to leave this home away from home. Unfortunately it was already booked. The parking downstairs is a breeze and safe. The elevator slow but we preferred to walk the easy flight of stairs up each day. We can't wait to go back and have shared several pictures with our friends and family. Logan was more than helpful with any questions we had and even got us in the unit a few hours earlier than expected. This place is the real deal. Don't hesitate to treat yourself to a little bit of paradise on the ocean. My walk each day was to the pier and surrounding areas where there is so much to see. The ocean waves each night were tranquil and if you are lucky enough to get the master bedroom you might never want to come out. It has a wonderful mini living room which closes off to the rest of the house yet still has sliding doors and Ocean view. One of the best trips ever! Our first night there we ran downstairs to the sandy beach where several people were taking pictures of a sea lion who made his presence known and stayed for over an hour. The kids could not stop giggling. All beach towels, chairs and toys were in the unit. This place has everything! Try hello Bettys nearby or treat yourself to a day at the Harbor and go to the Lighthouse! We went there three times!

We enjoyed our stay in this stunning home. Beautiful inside and out. The view and the sounds of ocean were romantic mesmerising. We had everything we would ever need. Every sunset was truly a masterpiece. We are grateful for your hospitality and would love to come back again. JoanAnn Cave Creek, AZ

Thank you!

This was a family vacation with our daughter's family, including our 2-yr old granddaughter who loved going to the beach. Because of the unit's very close proximity to the beach, our granddaughter was able to play on the beach early and often. The unit had everything we needed and is lovely. We hope to be back.

Thank you.

It was a beautiful property. The Owners were great!

This was a wonderful beachfront vacation rental and was even more beautiful than the pictures on the Internet! Sea Star Villa is luxurious with high-end finishes and furnishings. The location is excellent and so much fun to walk to dinner at local places. The home itself was so roomy that the 10 adults and 2 children never felt crowded. The balcony overlooking the beach was everyone's favorite place to relax. Everything we needed for a fun and relaxing vacation was available. The only thing we would do differently next time is rent it for longer than a week!

What a way to escape Arizona heat in total luxury. I think Sea Star must be the most beautiful beach rental anywhere. Just beautiful. It was romantic and very special. The attention to detail was over the top. The beachfront terrace so beautiful we stayed there most of the vacation. We loved watching the dolphins every morning and we think we even saw a whale!

Amazing, beautiful and comfortable. If you want to watch the waves break on the shore all night long,.... This is the place. We enjoyed every single minute of our time at this wonderful location. In fact, we wanted to stay an extra couple of days, but they did not have any openings. Next time we are booking for longer for sure. I would really like to buy this place. This is the best of the best vacation rental and is perfect for our multi generation family. The sand was right there, we just stepped over the curb and we were on the beach. Loved taking the baby on a stroll on the walkway. Best sedative we have ever found for getting a fussy baby to sleep.

This was a family trip with our Nana. She could not come to the beach since she was using a walker, but she got to watch the grand children play in the water all day. She loved reclining on the chase lounge under the umbrella. She never wanted to leave the deck. She was in heaven. Reason we booked this place was the elevator helped our parents, it worked great and was perfect for our parents to get to the unit. Plus the doors to the room and the shower were wide enough for the walker. Mom felt that everything was easy for her. Love this place. Can't say enough about our wonderful experience..

This place is spacious. It's on the ocean. It has everything you need. I don't know how I'll top this place next year. There is plenty of space, and the ceilings are high so we never felt crowded. It gave us the ability to RELAX! The furnishings are all of high quality. We were a family of 6 adults and we were not on top of each other once. The balcony is deep with comfortable furniture. If you like the ocean & the beach without the sand, the balcony is the perfect place--if you want the sand, walk down stairs. We enjoyed the firepit in the evenings. The kitchen fits 10 ppl and has all the things you might need (except food of course) so you don't have to run for little things. The kitchen is beautiful and you can enjoy the ocean. Front bedroom has an optional large entry at the balcony that can be left open. It was nice when Mom took a rest to still be part of our conversations and hear what was going on. The other two bedrooms are in the back and are a bit quieter without less waves roar. When we were there, we had the doors open day and night. Spectacularly clean. It was everything we hoped for.

This was my first time staying at the beach in Oceanside. We usually stay just down the beach in Carlsbad but our normal place was not available due to my last min schedule change so we decided to give this a try. We were very impressed! The accommodations are new and are very nice. We really enjoyed being on the strand, it is a very lively place with a great vibe. We had a fairly busy week consisting of our standard activities (amusement parks, beach, surfing, offshore fishing etc) but something we really liked about this place was sitting on the balcony at the end of the day, having a couple of drinks, and watching all of the activity on the strand! We highly recommend!

The Sea Star was a beautiful five star rental. The location, accommodations, decor, and overall stay was truly 5 star!!

We absolutely loved this beach villa! Sea Star was spacious and well stocked with everything that we needed. The beach view was awesome. Logan, the property manager was great and helped us every step of the way. This villa suited everyone's needs. Some of our family slept in while the early birds took a walk on the beach every morning. After the day's events, we could relax and cook a meal or enjoy carry-out! We even used the coolers and beach toys that were provided and brought picnic lunches to the beach. We'd love to come back and stay at this villa again!

My husband and our two kids vacationed at this rental. We are definitely returning! The unit is brand new and it really is luxurious - it is located right on the strand which is definitely prime real estate in Oceanside it seems! The villa is so close to everything - it was so nice to be able to walk downstairs and instantly go for a beautiful scenic run or walk down to the pier with our kids for dinner and a movie. Our favorite thing to do though was just hang out and play games on the balcony. Our kids loved roasted s'mores over the outdoor fire pit and my husband and I loved watching every sunset. Such a lovely, stress-free vacation rental - we will definitely be back!

What more could you want from a vacation stay. First off a beautiful location in the heart of Oceanside, it's close to the pier and other walking distance location, the spectacular views it has day and night, and the cleanliness and amenities are just perfect to really settle down and actually relax!!

Sea Star is a dream come true property. Its brand new and and decorated perfectly. Great place, location and accommodations. We recommend!

The beach house was the perfect getaway! Beautifully furnished, comfortable, clean and could not have been a better location! The magnificent sunsets were the perfect end of each fun filled day! Can't wait to return in October! I will definitely recommend to friends. Thank you for sharing your beautiful property.
