We had a great stay. The property is perfect for a family or couple on a beach stay. It has a comfortable seating area near the strand with a fire pit to enjoy sunsets. Perfect for beach days!
We loved staying in this bottom unit! It’s like 10 feet from the beach. Literally the owner was very responsive and accommodating and had everything you needed to cook meals do laundry, etc. we will definitely be coming back!
We were 4 friends (2 couples) and we enjoyed our Oceanside Beach weekend. Comfortable and relaxed. Easy check in and great location. Direct view to ocean and short walk to Beach or market. Unit was clean and big enough for 4 of us to enjoy time together or quiet if we wanted. Furniture has seen a bit of wear and was mix and match in style which is typical if a rental. But all was comfortable and all linens new and clean. Limited kitchen ware if you are planning on cooking. Asked for a propane tank and it was brought right away. Hot tubs were both working and on - a nice spot on the cool mornings.Great value for location. We would come back again.
We had a wonderful time, the views were amazing and the area was very nice. The house had everything we needed to make our stay feel like home. The owner is great and very responsive to any questions we had. I will definitely come back in the future. Thanks for the great memories me and my family made.
Overall we had a nice time and it's a great unit and location. Owner and property manager have excellent communication skills and helped us with everything we needed. Spoke with the owner and he is planning to make updates to the unit and outdoor area. The shower is beautiful and you can’t beat the location.
We had a great time! You can't beat the view ! Cottage had everything we needed for a nice relaxing 5 days..Loved sitting out on the strand and watching and people go by. Thank you so much to jessica for making our stay even better she is a very hard worker and if we needed a ything she would go out of her way to make sure we got it
..And Ray was a great host! We will be back to stay again..
Than you so much Skip and Gina

The location was perfect for our needs. Owners have been doing a lot of upgrades apparently. Beds were comfy, linens were lovely and lots of towels and beach towels. The kitchen was not equipped for anything but the simplest cooking yet. But when we called our hostess to report that I was cooking soup for dinner on our night of arrival and there was only one single bowl to eat from, she dropped everything and delivered 8 soup bowls immediately.
I would be happy to rent this unit again! Thank you!
Great location! The place is more worn than the pictures provided. If you are a person who needs continuity then this place is not for you…multiple flooring options that can really distract you, but again this is just an aesthetic that can be easily looked over. The major issue was the upstairs unit, handled by management but still the people were extremely disruptive which affected our stay. Parking was tricky. There are 2 clearly marked spots for upper and lower units. When we checked in the people occupying the upper unit were in the lower unit spot. When they left we were able to park in our designated spot, but the next guest parked in front of our car so we couldn’t leave. We had to go upstairs and ask them to move their truck….not a huge deal but maybe if the hosts removed 1/2 hot tubs it could accomodate better parking options as I assume neither of the guests wanted to park right in front of the lower unit. Also, downstairs unit needs better privacy. The curtains downstairs main room don’t cover the door and in the primary bedroom there are some broken blinds that don’t give full privacy. The place is perfectly located and equipped with everything. Mixed reviews were really because of the disruptive guests and parking. Otherwise the place is completely adequate for a beach weekend.
Overall this was great and we would come back! I do wish there was a little bit more in the kitchen, in way of supplies to cook for my kids.. One sheet pan, some tin foil, etc. I went to the little bodega around the corner and had to buy some foil. The 2 hottubs were open 24-7 which felt a little weird to me.. I closed them for energy efficiency but then they were re-opened by the property owners, so clearly that's how they wanted it. We didn't know if one hottub was for a specific unit (there are two units and two hottubs), so my kids went back and forth between the 2. They loved it, so that's what mattered most. I did try to reach out when we got there because the wifi router/password that was posted was different in two different spots in the house, and then neither worked. I never heard back from the property owners about it, but luckily figured it out on my own. Overall it was great location, and we'd totally stay there again. It felt safe and was exactly what we needed for this trip.

Not Worth The Cost
The location is awesome. The unit is old and not kept up to what I would consider a VRBO standard. Portable A/C units did not work and first night was terribly hot. Eventually they came to replace a/c units but then had power issue's. Ended up with extension cords running through out to get A/C and keep power on. I messaged owner over a week prior to arrival to ensure Hot Tub was operational. I was assured it was. Well, it was not and never worked for entire stay. Owner had someone try to fix, but was unsuccessful. The units are a bit out dated and needs some serious TLC, which would involve an investment.
The cost for the rental is not in line with others in the same area. This unit should rent for half of what owner has listed. I will say, owner was responsive to all issues encountered, but i felt it was just constant band-aid fixes. Eventually owner agreed to provide a 10% refund for the inconveniences we encountered. Nice gesture, but I feel 25-50% would have been more in line, based on the issues and condition of the units. I feel the listing on Venmo for this rental, does not truly represent what you actually get. Again. Amazing location.
Was a lovely week at Ray's Bungalow! Enjoyed the ocean view, people watching, sun bathing, bike riding andj long walks. The hot tubs were a special treat along with the shower! Ray was quick to respond when we asked for a couple things. Definitely plan on coming back!
Solid spot in Oceanside for a family vacation. The hosts are very accommodating and were helpful with our check-in process. Highly recommended for your next stay in Oceanside.
