I enjoyed my stay in this lovely house and so did my two dogs. We took walks to view the beach every day. The backyard was fantastic and my dogs loved it. I had family stop by for dinner and they loved sitting on the front porch. It was very relaxing vacation.
This was a great house for our family! Block and a half away from the beach and about a 20 min walk to town. We had the best week and enjoyed our stay! The owner is extremely responsive as well and very helpful when planning our trip and after. Would love to stay again!
Yes the property was pet friendly and kitchen was well stocked. The location was good. To call the 3rd bedroom a bedroom is a stretch..no direct access to house or bathroom, and was in fair condition. The house had a musty smell, although the bathrooms were clean. For the cost I would not rent this one again.
House was nice location was very convenient. It is a good thing that it has a driveway because parking on the street is pretty crowded and would make things a little more difficult. The owner is very responsive and the house provides almost anything you may need especially if you have a younger family
We really enjoyed our time in Carlsbad and this house was ideal for our family of four plus our dog. We walked everywhere because the restaurants and stores were so close. The house has plenty of space, it was fully equipped and the beds were super comfy. In addition, Marci was super quick to respond and very kind. We’ll definitely stay here again.
This is such a lovely home, near Carlsbad to walk for eating/coffee and soooo close to the beach! The home is really stocked with all things to have fun (beach towels, bikes, etc) and the kitchen has the items needed to cook - even has 2 refrigerators!
Loved our stay in Carlsbad. The location was fantastic (2 blocks from the beach, quiet street). Great backyard and so much gear that is helpful to families. Thank you!
Nice house near beach with everything you need. Plenty of beach toys, bikes including for kids, towels, kitchen supplies, etc. We loved sitting on the front porch and our dog loved the grassy back yard. Also enjoyed walking downtown to restaurants & shops. Our family had a wonderful time!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Carlsbad. The house had everything a beach goer could want or need and with the beach only a short walk away it doesn’t get much better. The kids loved the back bedroom and backyard. We really loved the large master bedroom, with an extremely comfortable bed. I felt like I was at home.
Very clean, comfortable, close to town, short walk to the beach and boardwalk. Lots of toys and beach supplies available for families. Well cared for front and back yard with covered patio and bar-b-que to enjoy anytime of the day or evening. We met a Navy friend from Colorado who served together 45 years ago and had family visit from Reno and San Diego for some beach time. Would highly recommend and plan another visit to the Getaway Beach Bungalow!
I don’t normally write reviews, however, I was so impressed with Getaway Beach Bungalow that I thought it needed a review. The place was extremely clean, which allowed me, as the mom, to be able to relax. The place was also stocked with everything you need from toiletries to beach items. It was so nice to not have to rent beach chairs or to have to transport them in our car. The location of the home is on a quiet street, with close access to the beach and the town. This was definitely one of our favorite family vacations!
No real complaints here - the beds were comfortable - home clean - neighborhood was quiet - well stocked kitchen and so close to the beach. It was on the chilly side during our stay and we did have a little issue with figuring out how to run the heat wall units but we made it work. There is a gas fireplace which was so nice to have running in the evenings. We did enjoy our stay here and would probably rent it again.
Great place for a toddler and dogs. Walking distance to the beach.
This was a great property for kids and dogs. My dogs and toddler enjoyed the backyard. They have some toys and slides for kids that my toddler loved. Bikes for your use. We bbq’d when we stayed there. Walking distance to restaurants and beach. Will be coming back for the holidays. Thank you for the hospitality.

About the host
Hosted by Marci Tarvin
Born and raised in California I have lived in San Diego County for the last 30 years. Carlsbad in one of my favorite places in the world and this house is where we raised our two girls.
Why they chose this property
It's hard to find family friendly, walkable neighborhoods anymore. I think this may be one of the last ones and we love our neighbors and this village so much!
What makes this property unique
We are on a pretty good sized lot for this area, so we can enjoy our yard as well as the beach. The neighbors are wonderful and we are the only street in the village without an apartment building or multi-unit residence packed onto the lot - it makes for a nice quiet safe street.
