Seaside Sunset

The Carlsbad location was wonderful with its many great places to eat, shop and relax while enjoying a great cappuccino. Enjoyable walks were available in all directions, while returning to the condo's ocean front views and sound of the waves never lost its appeal!!

The condo is lovely and I appreciate all of the communication. It is in a great location. The Village is walkable with restaurants and shops close by. And the ocean is tight out the door!

The location was just as described, and if you are looking for "oceanfront", this is the place to be. The sound of the crashing waves was welcome, and loud! The condo was nice and clean upon arrival, well-equipped, and just as described. Walking distance to Carlsbad Village, so you have access to plenty of shops and restaurants without having to drive. May I suggest if you have any issues requiring the attention of management, be sure to ask for the contact info of the local property managers. Grand Welcome is staffed with nice folks who do answer the phone, but they really can't help you much. We wasted a couple of hours dealing with them, but once we were in touch with the local manager Fay, our issue was quickly resolved. Overall, a very nice condo in a great location, if you want access to the beach and Carlsbad Village.

We had a wonderful time. The residence was beautiful and had everything we needed. On the day we did laundry, the dryer would not work. I contacted the host and a repair person was sent out within hours. We were compensated for the inconvenience. I would definitely recommend! 10/10 stars.

Perfect Carlsbad Stay right on the Beach! The condo was spotless, cozy and perfectly located right on the beach. The outside balcony was Awesome! Everything was exactly as described and the management team (Fay @ Grand Welcome) were the Best! Looking forward to booking this property again. Carlsbad is fun beach town with loads of restaurants and shops all within walking distance of the beach/condo. Highly recommended. Five Stars *****

Beautiful property, we had a great stay.

The property was beautiful: but the check in process was flawed and frustrating . Did not get information timely: had to write and request each and every need- unit number, then parking, then code for door, then code for ocean access. Should have received one timely email with all the information. Links just took me to VRBO listing over and over again.

We’ve stayed here a few times now and it never disappoints. You can’t beat the location. Everything was wonderful!

The property was beautiful, as advertised, with a well-stocked kitchen and comfortable beds. Having a designated parking place is a huge benefit. The location is walkable to everything! The managers were great to work with and highly responsive to a couple of small issues. Our entire family enjoyed our stay.

Gorgeous property right on the beach. Walking distance to many restaurants. Condo was clean, as described, kitchen well stocked, bedrooms were comfortable and had nice beds. Plenty of towels, games, puzzles and extra blankets. The only issue would be that the shades facing the ocean did not provide much shade against the sun when it was intense and the beach umbrella was really just a large umbrella so we had to go buy one. Would be nice to include a couple beach chairs on property for the price. Would definitely stay here again.

Gorgeous view, clean property and a great place for a family gathering.

What an amazing location for an adult getaway with dear friends. We couldn’t have asked for a better stay. The view is amazing and the layout fit the five of us perfectly. Although we didn’t use much of the kitchen appliances, it truly had everything you’d ever need. So clean and organized. If you get the chance to stay here, do it!!

Our stay in Carlsbad was perfect. The condo was modern, clean and super comfortable for a family of five with teenage/adult kids. The condo was well stocked with everything you could think of: bed and bath linens, beach towels, paper goods, glassware, plates, pots and pans, and beach equipment, etc. We appreciated this since we were visiting from the East Coast! I also have to note that the beds were firm and very comfortable. We had the beautiful Pacific Ocean as our back drop and loved listening to the waves and watching the surfers off the balcony. The location couldn't have been better. Just steps to the beach allowed for everyone to come and go as they please. And we could easily walk to all the restaurants and stores in town. Carlsbad itself is a charming "village by the sea" with so many great places to eat for breakfast, lunch and dinner. It was very lively and friendly as well. We will definitely consider staying in Carlsbad and this condo again if we return to the area. The nightly rate was on the high side but it's a premium location. Also, the management company was very timely and helpful in their communication. We loved our stay!

Great location and place to stay for a summer getaway.

Absolutely lovely. There is nothing like waking up to the sound of the ocean and having coffee on the balcony. The condo is beautiful, comfortable and has everything you could need. The location is fabulous. We barely used our rental car because everything is walkable. We will definitely be back.

It was beautiful, waking up on the beach every morning and watching the sunset every evening the host was amazing every time I contacted her. She was very responsive. We were gladly stay at this property again.

Our family enjoyed the location and proximity to all shopping and dining Carlsbad has to offer! The management company was so thoughtful and the communication was top notch!

We have stayed in multiple units in this complex annually for years. This property is the best layout and best finished one that’s available to rent! Well worth the price. Very well furnished and has everything you could possibly need for the beach and your stay for any length of time. Additionally we had rented this unit under previous management, and I can’t say enough about how wonderful Fay and the team at Grand Welcome of Carlsbad & Oceanside Vacation Rental Management are! They made us feel like family!

We’ve stayed in Carlsbad many times but never in town and on the beach. When we found this property we had to give it a try. This was our best trip ever. The balcony overlooking the beach and easy beach access made our vacation. Peaceful, relaxing and fun for our entire family. We didn’t want to leave! The management company was super helpful too! We’ll be back for sure

Great place to stay to see and hear the ocean and enjoy Carlsbad. House was clean and worked well for our group. Would come again. Property manager was very easy to work with and tried to accommodate us in any way possible. Very enjoyable.
