Family-friendly vacation rentals in Oceanside

We are so grateful to have been able to stay at Gwynn's place, it is so peaceful and lovely. Like a secret garden getaway. We loved all the small touches, and beauty of the space. Gwynn made us feel very welcome and comfortable! The pool is amazing and the outdoor spaces are delightful. Can't wait to stay here again.

Place was very nice and worked well for us. Definitely keeping in mind for future visits.

Last minute booking and a short stay, but this was a lovely home. Cynthia was very helpful.

Vanessa's place is in a very very quiet neighborhood just steps from the bay. I am a SD native, I know the city very well. I actually lived in the area for many years. This place is totally worth it if your traveling with a family with kids. Plenty to do, plenty of space to sit and relax inside and outside. It has plenty of things to keep kids busy from books to toys very very nice touch. If available when we return definitely will be staying here. The short walk to watch the sunset in the ocean is worth every penny..

Three Oaks was a lovely getaway! It was nice being a bit outside of town, very quiet & peaceful. The host was friendly, attentive & very welcoming. The bed was comfortable, something I have a problem with at most hotels I stay in. Will definitely come back on future visits to the area!

The house is excellent. I'm a designer, and I think the design is fantastic. The scenery, plants, and small yard make it peaceful and comfortable. I feel very inclined to stay inside and don't want to go out.

You enter the house, a little uncertain. From the outside, a little underwhelming. You pass through the cosy living room, still a little underwhelming. And THEN, WOW. The pool area, the tennis court, the Vista to the west, the mountains...spectacular, breathtaking, everything as advertised and more. Back in the house, you find a very well stocked kitchen, extremely comfortable bedrooms, a unique "guesthouse" for the Seniors (in our case), and above all...everything in working order. Absolutely no issues! Bravo to our great landlord, who was a super communicator. Overall: our family of 12, across 3 generations, found wonderful places to be together as well as to disperse. A great time was had by all in this Vista Villa wonder!

We had such an amazing week for our party of 7 family reunion!!! The house was exactly as described and so well stocked with amenities, most especially books, toys, and any children’s item you could think of for your young boys. Our family had tons of fun using the pool and hot tub, we definitely utilized the wide assortment pool/beach toys and floaties as well. We had a very good time with the special treasure hunt game which was amusement for all ages. Communication was top notch and the recommendations were much appreciated and spot on. We’re already planning our next vacation here again. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay!

This place was absolutely perfect. We had such a wonderful stay and the location was perfect. I couldn’t thank the host enough for the helpful instructions and speedy communication whenever I had a question. Would love to come back and stay again!

This home was beautiful! Plenty of space for the seven of us for our girls' trip. Helen was an excellent host. She was very responsive to any questions we had. The property was well-stocked with towels and linen, and had a washer and dryer in case you needed to do laundry. The backyard is beautiful. Extremely flexible check-in/check-out options. I would definitely stay again.

This was our second time staying at this condo. Very nice setup, so nice to being out dog and so close to the dog beach! Will stay again.

Sarajane’s house was exactly as advertised, and was everything we expected it to be! She was extremely communicative, and very helpful with any questions we had, as well as recommendations for things to do with our two young boys! Would happily come back!

The place was perfect for our family which included a 22 month old. The hosts thought of everything one could need! Used the stroller everyday to walk to the beach boardwalk just down the walkway and to Bay boardwalk just across the street. Super clean, comfortable and one of the top AirBnBs we’ve stayed in. Highly recommend!!

Great location close to the water and walking distance to restaurants and lots to do. The parking was very convenient which I appreciated. The furniture was comfortable and the linens were clean. Lots of chairs and beach toys available for use as well. The hosts were friendly and quick to respond when I had a question. I had a great stay and would definitely stay again.

We loved it! Anas home was wonderful, nice and clean definitely felt like home. Anas instructions was clear and simple. She wasn’t a bother at all. Definitely can’t wait to come back and book again.

The beach bungalow was as described. The location was ideal, just two blocks from the beach. The hot tub was a standout feature for our visit. It was clean and we had no issues with temperature. The home is a bit no-frills but that was as expected, still a great value. Host was responsive and shoutout to Pete, manager, who was kind and helpful throughout. Our family would stay again. P.S. the train did not really bother our family, some who are light sleepers, during the stay. It will not wake you up in the middle of the night.

Great place and really nice backyard, great neighborhood

We had a terrific stay! Would definitely stay again. Fit our family of 6 perfectly!

Very responsive and helpful! Appreciated the stay as it was a beautiful location.

We loved staying here with my dog - the cabin was a perfect size for the two (three with the dog) of us! The kitchen is well-equipped with appliances and cookware - despite the small size, we were able to cook lovely meals and snacks. The view is amazing and quiet - loved sitting outside to eat. It was nice to walk around and meet the animals on site. Easy drives to lots of beautiful hiking. Dawn was extremely responsive, both quick and helpful with our questions. We definitely plan to return!

Daniel N Emily’s place was perfect for an Easter weekend reunion of our children and their young families. The house was clean, large enough to ensure nobody felt cramped for space and all of the assessors needed for the kitchen and bathrooms were available and in great shape. The communication before taking residence was personable and professional. The owners are very understanding and went out of their way to make sure everything was just right for our family and their three day visit. My wife and I would recommend this property if you have a large group and are looking for a safe and centralized location near everything you may wish to do in the Carlsbad area. We would gladly consider renting this property again. Thank you from all of us. Thank you from all of us.

The home is in a great location. Walkable to a variety of different areas, but still in a quiet neighborhood.

Beautiful, spacious, well-appointed home! We enjoyed our stay and would recommend to anyone going to San Diego! Neighborhood is convenient to all parts of the city.

Three generations of our family enjoyed this lovely house where everything you might hope to find is provided. As you step out of the house you are completely surrounded by a beautiful well kept garden with gazebo to duck under when it rained briefly. It goes without saying that we enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub. We appreciated an abundance of towels. For the beach we found sand toys for the kids , chairs, and boogie boards for the courageous. The beach is an easy walk and the village a couple blocks away. Alexander was vey responsive extraordinarily flexible. All to say it was a great experience.
