THE DEEP DIVE
All BeachHauses are engineered for simple, easy living. All BeachHauses feature self check-in and check-out. They're stocked with beach toys, beach towels, bath towels, laundry detergent, shampoo, conditioner, olive oil, and cooking-ready kitchens.

The Octopus Hideaway is an easy two-minute walk to the beach. We're not kidding: you may find this little bungalow duplex so charming that it's hard to leave. But the joy lies in its proximity to the beach: two minutes by foot, through a charming neighborhood and without a care in the world. So load up the house wagon with our beach toys and yours if you want, then dip in the ocean and relax into the sand. Come back to this charming spot--our first BeachHaus, but recently updated (end of 2023)--and know that you're in good hands and among friends in North County San Diego.

We have stayed at several BeachHaus rentals, and they are all beautifully appointed places with all the amenities that make vacationing easier for a family with young kids. The Octopus Hideaway is no exception. It is a serene hideaway, tucked in the back of the house and surrounded by lush, tropical landscaping. The beach is a 5-min walk from the house. Not only do Brenda and her team provide everything a busy family would need, from nightlights in the bathrooms to dish and laundry soap pods (fragrance free!), and beach toys, towels, and portable chairs, the team is also super responsive to any inquiries I've ever had. We visit SD at least once/year to see family, and now I book only with BeachHaus, because they really go out of their way to look after us. As a mom of three young kids (and a 4th—my husband LOL), I feel taken care of when I stay at a BeachHaus rental. It's clear that these homes are managed by a busy mom who has thought of everything (with excellent interior design to boot!). This year, our favorite places were all booked, and the team kindly gave me some other options for places that had availability. And now we can add Octopus Hideaway to our list of faves.

We enjoyed our time in this peaceful, beautiful and well appointed cottage. The location was perfect - an easy 10 minute walk from the dog beach and close to great coffee shops and restaurants for humans. Loved it.

The property itself was great! Only issue was the bed wasn’t super comfortable. Location was good but the property management gave us the wrong information about dogs being allowed on the beach. Our entire trip was planned just to take our dogs to the beach for the first time and when I asked them about it they said they were allowed on a leash at the beach across the street, and off leash at the dog beach. We found out the day we got there as we were walking our dogs that they are only allowed on the dog beach and have to be on a leash. Management was apologetic then tried to blame me for not doing my own research. Had we known we would have made other arrangements.
