This is an old house built in 1969. Being a block from the beach means the salt air is punishing and causes rust--while we do our best to keep things in repair, this is not a luxury resort.

    The proximity to prettiest swimming, surfing beach in California, two blocks from dog beach, with swimming pool and hot tub! Short walk to town and on a mellow street. Bedrooms up and downstairs. It's the good old fashion style fun beach house great for kicking with friends and family! If you want super fancy house may not be for you. We had 10 family..young adults etc and had a blast. Lots of space and no fuss. It has all the beach gear you need and and is steps from nicest beach around. 3+ parking spots. Heather was awesome and so was owner. It's the original OG beach house..time stopped in 1972. So fun ..we already are booking for next year!

    If you are looking for a place to sleep this will fit the bill. It’s not the “vacation home” you take pictures of and share excitedly with your friends or lounge-in while grilling outside on the patio. The owners are working on it. So I would say it’s a fixer upper. The family that owns it is very nice. And Heather (the property manager) does a great job explaining everything and making sure you are ok with all of the little house “quirks”. it’s just old. It wasn’t the best option for us so we moved to an updated vacation home that better fit our needs. If you want a beach shack to just crash this is it! Parking is a bonus because parking at the beach is hard to find and you will have a prime spot. It’s all about the beach.

    This home has a great beachside location but the property is in a state of disrepair. It is a large open first floor with a good layout However, the listing photos do not reflect the current condition. Sliding doors out to the pool are rusted and required two people to open. The sliding doors in master bedroom would not open at all. Overall cleanliness level of the house was very low. Many areas of wood rot around doors and windows. Cluttered cabinets and older pots and pans detract from the well equipped kitchen. The hot tub and pool access was a strong plus. Unfortunately, we did not feel this property lived up to the listing or justified the rental rate.

    We loved our stay at this property and the owner and manager were very nice and gracious hosts. This is a classic family beach house. We highly recommend this property for families that want quick access to the beach in a property that has style and the comforts of home with lots of space and 5 bedrooms. Easy walk to restaurants of del mar village and nice to hear the ocean from the backyard and master bedroom. We would love to stay again sometime.

    My two sons and I thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Del Mar California. The house, pool, hot tub, and all of the accessories including chairs and boogie boards and surfboards were used. A great place, we can’t wait to go back

    So nice to experience a home that is in its original form and is a good representation of mid-century architecture. The home has its original character intact and hasn’t gone through extensive updating or remodeling as many of the surrounding homes have. It’s well-maintained, clean and comfortable. Had the temperatures been a bit warmer, I’m certain we would have made good use of the pool. The jacuzzi, however, was a popular spot for members of the family. The location of the home was just a couple of doors from the beach, so we took many walks during our stay. Head south along the beach for about half a mile and we were in the main village. A short trip north and we were on the dog beach to observe the happiest dogs on the planet. They are an absolute joy to watch. Some other happy surprises: Seaside Market in neighboring Cardiff-by-the-sea, proximity to San Diego attractions, and the array of plants in area gardens. Thanks for a great spring break for my family!
