Great location and amenities

Our group stayed for 4 days for a golf trip. The property was great. Everything was as advertised and we enjoyed our stay and would recommend. The only thing I would flag is that there is no air conditioning in each room (just fans) so if you have a very hot spell of weather like we had, the rooms can be quite warm overnight.

A perfect place for your family to enjoy the beach, the shops and each other’s company.

Our extended family of 8 adults and 5 grandchildren enjoyed the most wonderful time together in this holiday home with everything. A bunk room for the kids and a bathroom for each adult couple ensured everyone was comfortable and well catered for. The kids loved the hot outdoor shower after a trip to the beach and the secure outdoor play space was fabulous. We will be back!

Great house for a holiday in a great location. Situated within walking distance between the main shopping street and a few blocks from the beach, Oceanside is the perfect house for a summer holiday. Everything was easy and as advertised, this was our second trip here over the past few years and would recommend for anyone looking for a holiday house to spend some time with the family

5 star property, better than the photos!

Oceanside exceeded our expectations as it was extremely spacious, comfortable, clean and equipped with everything you need for a holiday rental. Our group really liked the fact that there were enough bedrooms, bathrooms and living spaces to accommodate our group of adults and children. The location was perfect, just a short walk to both the beach and the shops. The host was very helpful and communicative. We highly recommend Oceanside and can't wait to stay again!

Excellent location, family friendly, spacious, clean, close to beach and shops, friendly host.

We stayed here with a group of adults and their children aged 6 and under. We had wonderful stay! The host is very friendly and responsive to our questions. The house is spacious, has plenty of bedrooms, bathrooms and multiple living areas suitable for group stays. We liked how we could see the kids playing outside from all windows. Lots of activities in the play room and indoors. Highly recommend for medium to large groups. So close to beach and shops. Nice to go out for a morning beach walk without driving. Host left a bottle of red which was generous. Already planning our next stay. Highly recommend.
