Seahorse Retreat with Ocean View Balcony

Spend Thanksgiving, Christmas or New Year's on the Oceanside coast. North Coast Village's lagoon-style pool and spa are heated year-round, and grey whale season off Oceanside begins November 28, with whale watching trips leaving from the harbour next door. Relax on your ocean view balcony, then unwind by the cosy fireplace after a beach walk down to the Pier. Seahorse Retreat - B226 at North Coast Village Relax on your ocean view balcony! Seahorse Retreat welcomes you to a tropical paradise filled with streams, waterfalls, and winding paths. Swim in the lagoon-style heated pool, and head to the beach for a walk down to the Pier. The kitchen features stainless appliances and smooth counters, and is equipped with dishes, pots and pans, and cooking utensils. The living area with cosy fireplace is a great place to unwind after a day in the surf and sun, or perhaps a day of sightseeing. The bathroom has a tub/shower combination and a separate dressing area. Make My Holiday also provides all linens and towels, beach chairs and beach towels. The Living Room TV is provided for your entertainment, as well as free wireless Internet. As you walk through the staffed secure gate to oceanfront North Coast Village, you are transported to a tropical oasis reminiscent of the Costa Rican Rain Forest. Running streams, waterfalls, lush foliage, and Koi meander through the spacious grounds of this resort-like beachfront condominium complex in Oceanside California. You will notice the crystal clear heated pool and spa, gleaming barbecues, convenient picnic tables, sand rinsing stations to remove the lingering beach. If you need a break from sun and surf, you might enjoy a game of pool, a jog on a treadmill in the exercise room, a little ping pong, or a sauna. Feeding our giant Koi is a simple pleasure not to be missed during your Oceanside visit. Parties or events are not allowed at this property. Please note that there is no central air conditioning at North Coast Village. When you venture through the back gates, you find yourself on one of North San Diego County’s finest beaches: broad and flat with volleyball, and great surf breaks - right out back! Beach towels and chairs are provided with the condo. To the north, you can walk or bike to Oceanside’s busy little harbour for a bite to eat or some boating, and to the south, you can venture down the strand to southern California’s longest pier for some fishing (no licence needed). North Coast Village is close enough to walk to everything near the beach, so your car can stay in its secure underground parking spot - especially useful when beach parking becomes a premium in the summer. The Mainstreet Oceanside Farmer's Market is a delightful experience near the Pier which takes place every Thursday from 9-1. Within a short drive, visit Disneyland & California Adventure, Knott's Berry Farm, Universal Studios, Magic Mountain, Balboa Island, La Jolla, Mission San Juan Capistrano, Mission Luis Rey, Queen Mary, San Diego State Parks, San Diego Wild Animal Park, Legoland, Sea World, The Flower Fields of Carlsbad, Temecula Wine Country, San Diego Zoo, Del Mar Racetrack, Coronado Island, Oceanside Harbour, Birch Aquarium at Scripp's Institute of Oceanography, Palomar Observatory.

This is our third time staying at North Coast Village. Condo was just as advertised. Had all the things we needed for the beach and for cooking meals which was amazing. Got a little warm some parts of the day so we definitely utilized the extra fan that was provided. Would definitely book again!

Average

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The general property is nice but the actual rental was average. The fire alarm unexpectedly went off at 1:15 in the morning repeating “evacuate, smoke in the master bedroom”. There was no smoke in the master bedroom or anywhere else in the rental and the alarm would not turn off. It appears that the shower was not cleaned because there was still a lot of soap residue on the shelf. The rental company would respond to questions/requests but were not warm or friendly. It would have been very helpful if they could have accommodated an early check in (my request was just for 1-2 hours early). Overall, it was ok.
