This is a wonderful home for relaxing on the ocean. Excellent views, with decks on three levels, although you will likely spend most of your time on the top deck, which has the best views. The house is very well-designed and up-to-date, with an excellent, fully-equipped, modern kitchen. The master bedroom is on the lowest level of the three levels of the house. The master bed is king-sized and very comfortable. It has an excellent, well-appointed bathroom, as well as an adjacent media room, including a flat-screen tv and a modern draft table/desk. There is also a full bathroom on the second level with two bedrooms and another half-bath on the first level near the entry. There is also another small media room on the second level. There are two Jøtul gas stoves, one on the top level and one in the master bedroom, that quickly heat up the rooms. The art work on the walls is impressive, mostly enlarged photographs, far better than what you would usually find in a vacation home. Overall, the house was very clean. The only change we would recommend is that the carpet on the two flights of stairs be replaced, since it looks rather dirty and stained, especially on the first flight of stairs down from the top level. Apparently some renters did not heed the requirement to remove their shoes at the entry. Also, if you plan on cooking your own meals like we did, you will need to bring your own olive oil, herbs and spices, since we could only find salt and pepper in the cupboards. The only other recommendation we have is that there should be instructions for using the Jøtul stoves, the other sources of heat in the various rooms (we never did figure out how to operate the thermostats on the walls), and the televisions. Finally, do not plan on getting reliable cell phone reception in Oceanside.
