This was EXCALLY what we were looking for! A house right on the beach. Just like the photos you walk right out your back gate and are on the beach. All day and night you just hear the waves crashing, it was perfect. The unit was actually bigger than expected. Morning coffee and wine nights on our balcony were amazing.
Great location, perfect accommodation for a couple. Easy walking to restaurants and the Coaster. For groceries you'd need to drive. Big plus is the beach is right out the door.
Direct access to the beach. Great porch to enjoy early morning and late night lounging while enjoying the ocean. Everything we needed to get started on our stay was provided. Comfortable and clean.
Place was in an outstanding spot, right on beach, waves crashing, great location. Clean and spacious. Good parking. The problem we experienced is the noise. Paper thin walls all around, including ceiling, so you heard everything your neighbors were up to. That is the only negative I would comment on. If you don't mind some background noise, till about 10pm, the location again is awesome!

What a disappointment?
Pluses areLocation, View, Comfortable Bed, Lots of Towels, BBQ works well. Negatives:Lots of rust in heating unit and bathroom shower, Cookware was falling apart, MAIN ROOM BLINDS WOULD NOT RAISE, so could not see view properly, Built in Microwave is out of order. While they do have a small replacement microwave, the built in one not working means that there is no light or fan over the stove top. Outside light sensor on balcony kept turning on and off all night, One of the other suites has access to the balcony in front our your bedroom window. So the other suite tenant walked out in front of us while we were still in bed. Very poor sound insulation in upper suite so that we could hear every move they made. Finally the garbage cans outside were overflowing when we arrived for our 3 day stay. It looked like the garbage had not been put out for well over a week if not longer. The owners request that if you are there on Monday to put the garbage out which we would normally be happy to do. We had to pile our garbage on top of a very full bin and wheel the cans out onto the street. Not impressed

Reviewer Comments:
Unit C that we stayed in is perfect for my husband and I, this is the second time we've stayed in this unit. Right on the beach, walking distance to Carlsbad Village, has everything we need. The unit was clean, bed very comfortable. The unit is starting to show some wear & tear on the outside due to the weather, and a couple of things on the inside that will need fixing, but this didn't bother us, we were there for the view and beach access. We saw dolphins a couple of times and that was cool! We will definately stay there again!

Great location just steps away from the beach. Loved watching the dolphins every morning. Approximately a 3 minute walk to Carlsbad Village. We can’t wait to stay here again.

This location was perfect and the view was unmatched. Just what we needed to feel like we "lived on the beach" to rest and rest while listening to the waves crash day in and out was perfect! The decor and esthetic are nicely updated. However, there were a few things that could be improved. With such a great location and eye for decor, finish it out. Get rid of rusted-out vents and baseboards, and fix the toilet.

It was fabulous. Location in breath taking. Literally steps to the sand. The apartment is spacious. Big 1 bedroom. Would absolutely stay again.
Our unit was a bit worse for wear. It's an older beach cottage and smelled musty.

Great place on the ocean. Outside deck and areas are great for watching the ocean.
I am anxious to rebook ... my husband had a medical emergency/hospitalization so the owner allowed me to let my friend enjoy the property. She loved it - I can't wait to try again!
The condo was perfect! Ocean views from every window, which we left open even at night to hear the surf. The condo was nice & decorated like a beach cottage. It's exactly like the pictures. We had everything we needed. We would love to go back. Perfect!
I will say we love Carlsbad! The beach has changed so disappointing!! The condo was nice ! Very comfortable! Beds everything! Thanks we love Carlsbad!!!
Everything about this place is exactly as listed. When we arrived someone was parked in our assigned spot, so we called them. They immediately answered and got it taken care off. It is a very open floor plan with a picture perfect view of the ocean. Since it is down at towards the end of Ocean Street there were very few people. The walk to the center of town only takes 5 minutes or so, and you have access some of the best parts of the beach for daily searches for sea shells. The place has a lot of space which I believe they could have used to place some extra beds if they wanted. We have been coming to Carlsbad every year for a long time, and this is our new favorite place to stay.
This was a great place to stay, pics are accurate. I agree with the other postings that the Unit C isn't obvious when you 1st arrive. Walking distance to Carlsbad Village, which is already a great place to tour and be at the beach. Definitely recommend.
It's a great location though there is not much beach area to sit in front of the home. It may have been a higher than normal tide. The home needs some TLC. Lots of aging inside and out. Please fix the blinds in the main room, it's a great view but you can't raise the blinds to enjoy it!

Very loud!
I would ABSOLUTELY never return to this property! This is an old building with paper thin walls and ceilings. The 615 am wakeup incessant running and jumping on the furniture from the kids upstairs was exacerbated by the loud music by the room next to us at 130am. 4 hours of nightly sleep for the first three days. Management tried their best to get folks to be courteous, and respect the reasonable 10 pm to 10 am quiet hours...but to no avail
