Oceanside California Vacation Rental Frequently Asked Questions

Question: Where is this vacation rental condo located in North Coast Village? Answer: This ocean view condo is on the 3rd and 4th floors (top 2) of the C building. The C building is on the south west side of North Coast Village and faces the beach toward the pier; it is set back from Breakwater Way and is quiet. Our view is of the beach.
Question: What time is check in and check out at your vacation rental? Answer: Check in is 3pm or later and check out is at 10 am sharp. We can not usually accomodate early arrivals or late check outs because we need time to make this vacation home ready for your stay and for the next guest's stay. There are never early/late accommodations in the summer.
Question: Will you consider a well behaved dog, cat, etc? Answer: No. Our vacation rental and North Coast Village are pet free.
Question: Do you allow smoking in the condo or outside? Answer: No. The condo is smoke free inside and out.
Question: I didn't see monthly rates. Do you rent by the month? Answer: Yes, this vacation rental is available by the month, week, and with a 3 night minimum. Monthly rates are available by specific request based on the dates. No monthly discounts are available March through August.
Question: What is required to reserve your Oceanside condo? Answer: At the time of your reservation I will email a rental agreement and rental policies for your signature. A deposit of 50% of all fees and taxes as well as a $500 refundable security deposit are also required to secure your reservation. The remainder is due 60 days prior to your arrival. I accept PayPal, VISA, Mastercard, AMEX, Discover, and US personal checks when time permits.
Question: What if we have to cancel our vacation stay? Answer: I encourage you to buy trip insurance if this is a concern. Cancellation of your stay requires a 25% cancellation fee. If your cancellation is less than 60 days prior to your arrival, all of the rental fees are retained. If your term can be re-rented, rental fees will be refunded less the 25% and any difference in rents.
Question: You are booked for the time I want to stay. Can you help me find another place? Answer: Sure. I've belong to a vacation rental owners group for North Coast Village in Oceanside and I would be happy to pass your information along to other owners of vacation rentals there. Please email me the dates, number in your group, name and phone or email using my contact form link.
Question:Are there convenient grocery stores nearby? Answer: Of course; this is southern California afterall. You'll find Vons at 1737 Oceanside Blvd., Albertson's at 3925 Mission Ave., and Ralphs at 1702 Oceanside Blvd. They are all full service groceries, and Albertson's even has a pharmacy in case you forgot the sunscreen.
Question:Is there a washer and dryer in your unit? Answer: No. Only units who are "grandfathered" in have washer and dryers in the unit. We are no longer allowed to install these in private condos at North Coast Village. There is however, a convenient laundry facility located downstairs via elevator. I have laundry baskets, and our own private "shopping cart" to transport your laundry. Bring quarters as the HOA doesn't make change. Wash is $0.75 and dry is $0.75/cycle. We do ask you to wash beach towels that you use.
Question: Where should we get pizza? Answer: I haven't had pizza in Oceanside yet, but this is where my guests go or order takeout: Manhattans's Giant Pizza - 1060 Mission Ave 760-721-3660. They also frequently use Round Table Pizza and Pizza Hut.
