B215 - Garden Retreat

We have stayed at North coast village for several years now since our children were very little and have never been disappointed!

Extremely detailed instructions and easy check in. Beautiful location about a two minute walk to the beach. This unit has a garden view as described in the listing. We didn’t want to leave! We’d definitely stay again. Also the security staff is SOO nice and it seems like a very safe place to stay.

The central location was great! The condo was a short walk down the garden path to the pool and spa, and only a little further down the path and out the gate to the sandy beach. The chairs and toys provided were very much appreciated. Also, we were able to easily drive to nearby attractions. Our first day was south to SanDiego for LEGOLAND. Later in the week we drove north to Universal Studios.

We had a great stay! The proximity to the beach made this a perfect location for us! The condo was beautifully decorated and communication with rental management was easy and helpful! We would definitely stay here again! It is about a 40 minute drive to downtown San Diego but that wasn’t a problem for us!

Excellent vacation destination! Great for families or couples!

Great location and updates!

We just stayed here with our 3 kids (ages 2, 10, and 15) and had a great time! This condo had 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms each with showers, and a pullout sleeper in the living area. I loved how clean it was when we checked in, and also loved that there were spare towels and some other basic items there. This condo is part of a larger condo complex, so we weren't really sure what to expect, but overall we had a great experience. Parking is in a gated garage, there is a nice little gym, pool area, rec area with some games, a BBQ spot with 3 large grills. The unit itself doesn't have a grill, which we didn't realize, but the grill area is easy to use and they get cleaned regularly, but this is one of the farther units from the grill. This condo is on the 2nd level, so we hit our step goals and got lots of activity with the kids going to the beach (just a walk away), walking through the beautiful garden/ Koi pond area. The complex is very well maintained. This was our first time to Oceanside and loved it, and the condo sufficiently met our needs to enjoy the beach for a week.

This property is clean and well equipped. The deck is great, rooms are big and unit is updated nicely. Plenty of room for a family to eat. NCV is always a great stay. Easy check in and out.

Christopher - Posted: 6/15/2022

We enjoyed our time here. We were celebrating a birthday and they even left a birthday card! So thoughtful. The 2 bedroom unit accommodated our family nicely.  Overall, it was a super cute place with a great vibe so close to the beach. Would stay here again!

Great place to stay. Safe with good amenities.

Allison - Posted: 6/1/2022

beautiful condo, very comfortable. very close to the beach

Dorissa - Posted: 5/4/2022

Beautiful balcony views, literally a small walk out of the complex and your right there at the beach. Wonderful landscaping around the property. I enjoyed the jacuzzi, koi pond, fitness center, and my walks period, around the complex. 10 thumbs up????

Fredisha - Posted: 5/2/2022

Great location. Clean. Easy check in and check out.

Bianca - Posted: 4/27/2022

This property was as clean and beautiful as it was described. It was very close to the beach. Accommodations were wonderful. Check in and check out was seamless. I will go back if I have a chance.

Alice - Posted: 3/28/2022

Spent 2 months in this ‘home away from home.” Lots of great food in the local area and there are wonderful farmers markets, in Oceanside and Carlsbad. We missed the ocean view but the garden view was lovely. Property manager was very good to work with.

Lori - Posted: 3/16/2022

You can book directly with On The Sand and save $$. They were excellent hosts! The complex is beautiful and right on the beach. 

Sharin - Posted: 1/5/2022

As described! We loved this location - especially during the Ironman. It was in the middle of the course! Beds were comfy also! Oceanside is paradise

Natalie - Posted: 11/3/2021

This place was perfect for our family of four. Very kid friendly! The grounds are beautiful, and it was a fun, quick walk to the beach. My boys, 5 and 7, loved feeding the fish every time we walked to the beach. This was our first time in Oceanside, and this condo really was in the perfect location. Close to the pier and harbor, lots of restaurants in walking distance. The actual condo was great, had everything we needed, and they were very responsive to any requests. So happy we found this place, will definitely be back!

Erin - Posted: 10/16/2021

This is a great place to stay. Very close to the beach and harbour restaurants. North Coast Village is a beautiful location with lush gardens and waterfalls. Check in was easy. Good parking. Nice decor. It was great to have access to beach chairs and towels. The host provided snacks and waters which was a nice touch. Very pleasant stay.

Teresa - Posted: 9/1/2021

The property and location were both wonderful - highly recommend!

Russ - Posted: 7/12/2021

We were at the property for a week. The grounds of the condo are gorgeous. Master bedroom bed super comfortable. Train was louder than we thought it would be but we were so tired from the fun it never woke us. Condo amenities were not fully stocked but owner helped. Only complaint is that our additional car got ticketed wish we would have understood how to do the public parking sooner. If you get the pass from the HOA office you still have to get down to the lot each morning by 8am or you will be ticketed Pass is good for evening parking only.

Stacey - Posted: 7/4/2021

The place was perfect. Nice and clean. Snacks and water as a welcoming was nice.

Cristina - Posted: 6/6/2021

Marlene - Posted: 5/26/2021

Thank you for all the information that was provided! Everything was clearly explained and our kiddos loved the treats! We had a blast at the beach! They provided all the info we needed and were very reachable. Clean and close to the beach!

Sara - Posted: 5/16/2021

We enjoyed staying at this condo! Amazing view, great location, and a great space!

Kaylee - Posted: 5/1/2021

We enjoyed our stay here. We had everything we needed. It was very helpful that the place had a pack n play crib, beach chairs, beach toys, and beach towels. North coast is a nicely gated community with security. We had a problem with neighbors being loud late into the night and called security. The noise was stopped right away and didn’t have any other problems. That is a great perk about stay here. The pool was nice. The beach is a short walk from the place, very convenient. You are a short walk from the pier and some food places and a playground. The harbor is a short walk with food and rentals. The only 2 things that would be inconveniences were that there are a lot of stairs throughout and to take the elevator you still had to take some stairs unless coming from the parking garage. We also had to unload in a different place because the garage is 6’6” and our little SUV couldn’t fit with our top carrier attached. I would definitely stay here again! It is on the corner of the building so you have 2 balconies and windows on 2 sides of the building which helps with airflow and keeps the place comfortable and cool with the window. Ceiling fans are also nice in all the sleeping areas and rooms.

Even though we were inside of a large complex, the way this condo is set up makes it feel very private. The parking is stellar for this spot- B215 also.

Suzie - Posted: 4/13/2021

What a perfect place to spend time on the beach! The location was amazing. Thanks for a fun trip!

Rachelle - Posted: 10/22/2020

King bed amazing and comfortable, space for everyone, boogie boards provided, beautiful grounds, beach always great. We had crazy renters above us and security took care of it right away. Grounds crews were nice and kept their work areas clean as they are doing some major exterior renovating. Kitchen is functional but only for one person, very small. You are at the back of the building so the train is loud but windows are great and block it well .overall we would stay again.

Linda - Posted: 10/18/2020

We needed a place to stay while visiting our son and daughter-in-law and this place was wonderful. Overall the place was beautifully decorated with a nice beach feel. The kitchen was well stocked and the beds were very comfortable. Since we flew to CA I was especially grateful that linens, bath towels, beach towels and beach chairs and boogie boards were included. The complex is beautiful and the beach was a very close and easy walk. We used the pool which was very nice but because of Covid-19 other facilities were closed. The only drawback was hearing the train during the night.

Kathleen - Posted: 9/16/2020

Loved being able to walk right to the beach!

Laura - Posted: 8/10/2020

I recently rented this precious condo to celebrate my best friend’s birthday & find a little peace these days. It had EVERYTHING we could want or need. (Storage area had sand toys, beach umbrella, chairs & my fave boogie boards!) Short walk & you are ON the beach! The whole condo was very clean and tidy. The kitchen was fully stocked with all we needed. The pool was fantastic (kids didn’t want to go when our time was up) plenty of room for the 6 of us. This gem is located right above the babbling brook and those serene sounds are what we will miss the most. We did not want our time to end & we can’t wait to go back! Highly recommend for your next family staycation or romantic getaway.

Ana - Posted: 7/2/2020

My family and I had a great staycation. We canceled our trip to Maui do to the COVID-19. This is a great location for a vacation. Walking distance to the Oceanside harbor and restaurants. We rented a boat and hung by the beach, pool and hot tub. We were so relaxed. We enjoyed every moment during our stay

Exsiquio - Posted: 6/18/2020

It was a wonderful place to stay. We enjoyed the comfortable rooms, the set up they have in the rooms for your convenience. The pots, pans, some of the other things they had stocked there were a huge help to cook our own breakfasts, lunch and dinners. It was the perfect set up and the best of both worlds for all my kids and their families. Some wanted to make sure we had beach access, others wanted a swim pool for sure. It had both and was ideal to make it work for our family.. Misty Herzog was excellent to help out with whatever we needed when we were getting a key after a late night at Disney and etc. she was amazing. Loved the trip, loved our stay with On the sand! It was so fun. It was a perfect place to stay.

Diane - Posted: 3/10/2020

This was a great option for us, plenty of room for the family and nice location - easy access to the parking garage and not far to the jacuzzi or gate for the beach. There was one beach chair in good condition, the rest probably will need replacing for the next 'season'. Kitchen was stocked ok with dishes/pots/pans/utensils. Would have been nice to have a flat/smooth griddle or large fry pan. Really nice newish appliances and we were quite comfortable all week. Very clean. We would definitely come back!

Response From Management:
Thank you for the review! We appreciate the feedback on the items that are needed or need to be replaced and we will take care of both the beach chairs and the large fry pan.

This apartment exceeded our expectations. The apartment comfortably fit 5 adults and 1 baby without feeling cramped. It was stocked with everything we needed. The complex grounds were beautiful and well kept. We enjoyed walking around the gardens and the beach. The location is within walking distance of many restaurants and stores and is easily accessed by car. We look forward to staying here again in the future.

Cristina - Posted: 11/19/2019

This property had everything we needed to make our vacation enjoyable. Love being close to the beach while still being able to enjoy the pool and spa when that was what we were in the mood for.

Lynn - Posted: 10/18/2019

We had a wonderful time in this beautiful, functional and comfortable condo for Labor Day. One small issue if sound bothers you then consider the train. If you shut the windows and turn on the fans then 95% of the sound is gone. Even though we heard it sometime we would book this condo again in a heart beat. Our grand daughter loved to different balconies to have a tea party with grandma.

Kathleen - Posted: 9/5/2019

It was a great place to spend our vacation by the ocean.

Julia - Posted: 8/27/2019

We had a wonderful time staying at this location!! Amazing amenities, fun extras in the locker in the garage that we took down to the beach at the end of the complex & enjoyed with our teens. It was comfortable, well decorated & furnished, we REALLY enjoyed our time there!! The sunsets are beautiful from the deck/porch, the lighting in every room was beautiful. Very accommodating & easy to work with. We have saved this location for future stays when we may travel to the area again.

Jeanna - Posted: 5/9/2019

We absolutely loved our stay at North Coast Village. Our condo was great and came equipped with much more than just the basics, like sand toys, kites, a wagon and snacks for us to enjoy when we arrived. The grounds were beautiful and well kept. The pool and hot tub were loved by all, and it was amazing to be so close to the beach. We'll definitely be coming back!

Sienna - Posted: 1/4/2019

Our stay was very pleasant. the location, grounds and the room were all very nice I'm glad that you provided such a beautiful setting for my family while I spent some time in the hospital. Thanks John Moss

John - Posted: 12/9/2018

Was awesome second time I stayed with you guys and both times great thank you

Michelle - Posted: 9/27/2018

We've stayed in this complex four different summers now, and this was our favorite one by far! Easy access to beach, VERY nice inside, A+++

Matthew - Posted: 8/3/2018

The unit B215 was wonderful.

David - Posted: 6/25/2018

The unit B215 was wonderful.

David - Posted: 6/25/2018

We stayed for a week in this beautiful condo at North Coast Village. We have stayed here several times in the past and this was by far our favorite condo. It was the perfect size for our family and provided all the amenities we needed. We will certainly be staying again in the future.

Kelsey - Posted: 6/18/2018

My family and I stayed here at the end of April 2017 for 2 weeks. It is located perfectly as it’s close to Oceanside harbour, footsteps to the beach and walking distance to Oceanside Pier, shops and restaurants. The apartment was very clean, modern and very comfortable and with North Coast Village having a resort sized pool, spa, gym and bbq and laundry facilities it made our stay perfect. The owners Mark and Shanna and their team were very great in communicating with us prior to our stay which was great as we are from Australia. We will definitely be back to stay there again.

James - Posted: 4/9/2018

My family and I had a great experience!! Our condo was so clean and had everything we needed to make our 9 day stay so very comfortable! The owners were so gracious and we hope to come back next year!!

Parisha - Posted: 10/17/2017

This was our first time to North Coast Village. The condo was great, well stocked, clean and maintained. Able to cook meals there and feel at home without having to leave the property. Beach equip provided was perfect. Gated parking was a plus. The beach was awesome, perfect for a "Chill"-cation. Booking with Mark and Shanna was a breeze. We'll be returning to this property again and using On The Sand.

Curtis - Posted: 7/10/2017

The condo was amazing. My wife and I stayed with our four kids for five wonderful nights in the Garden Retreat. I was very impressed with the décor and cleanliness of the condo. The condo had a beach feel décor with little touches of extras, like pink and purple stuffed animals in the kid's room, soft rugs to walk on, plants on the balcony, etc. The condo had everything we needed during our stay, pots, pans, silverware, dishes, etc. We thoroughly enjoyed the coffee maker and travel coffee mugs and put them to use every day. There was even a supply of coffee and sugar in the condo. There was always enough seating for the whole family in the living room and kitchen which allowed us to play games and watch movies as a family. The location of the condo was a bit far back in the community, but we loved the quietness of it. It was just far enough from the pool to avoid the crowd but close enough to take a swim whenever one pleased. Access to the beach was a bit further than we had hoped though, but still only a short walk through the complex. Everything was great from renting the condo to exiting the condo. We will definitely stay here again. The stay is well worth the price. Parking was easy with our minivan. The security staff was wonderful. We also really appreciated the beach toys and boogie boards. Our kids had a great time feeding all the fish in the pond too. There was so much to do and just not enough time to do it all.

Matt - Posted: 6/28/2017

We had a family wedding in Oceanside and this VRBO condo was a perfect fit for us. The condo is very conveniently located and easy to get in and out. Parking is great in the underground garage. The condo itself was very well equipped and had all we needed. It was maybe 100-125 yard walk to the pool and double that to the beach, so easy access but enough separation that it was nice and quiet. The beds were comfortable, the living area was great for morning coffee and planning the days activities. My parents who also stayed in the condo (they had never done VRBO or similar before) were so happy they are planning to stay again next year.
