Carlsbad Beach Bungalow II

We had such a great time staying at this property! The bungalow was clean and organized, the property itself was beautiful, it’s located in a quiet area, and within walking distance (15 minutes) of the beach and the heart of the town. I would highly recommend booking this property and also hope to return!

Great property!

We had a wonderful stay at this lovely property! The location is great and walkable to Carlsbad Village (about a 15-20 minute walk). The home was spotless and well appointed with everything we needed during our stay. The private backyard was beautifully landscaped and perfect for our family and dog. We’d definitely recommend this listing and would choose it again if we were to be back in Carlsbad.

Perfect vacation house

The place was clean & safe. Appreciated the enclosed yard & driveway parking. The location offered many places to shop & eat. My only complaint was that the house was very humid & stuffy. I knew there wasn't AC but having screendoors on the back & front doors would of really helped! I suggest taking some kind of cooling air system with you or serious fans to help with the misty smell & moisture!

This place is amazing, strongly recommended by me! I was in the unit with private back yard, bonus for sure if traveling with a four legged friend. I was so comfortable here I truly did t want to leave. Unit next door had occupants, kids and dog but we never heard each other unless sharing the amazing front yard area. Great set up and great place. I will be back for sure
