THE DEEP DIVE
All BeachHauses are engineered for simple, easy living. All BeachHauses feature self check-in and check-out. They're stocked with beach toys, beach towels, bath towels, laundry detergent, shampoo, conditioner, olive oil, and cooking-ready kitchens.

The Octopus Hideaway is an easy two-minute walk to the beach. We're not kidding: you may find this little bungalow duplex so charming that it's hard to leave. But the joy lies in its proximity to the beach: two minutes by foot, through a charming neighborhood and without a care in the world. So load up the house wagon with our beach toys and yours if you want, then dip in the ocean and relax into the sand. Come back to this charming spot--our first BeachHaus, but recently updated (end of 2023)--and know that you're in good hands and among friends in North County San Diego.

Fabulous perfection!
This is the perfect vacation home—it is truly charming and cosy, but also carefully restrained as to not overwhelm. The tech is just enough to have made our stay easy and also secure, but not so complicated as to have made things overly complicated. The neighborhood is AMAZING, lively, dog-friendly and walkable. And while the neighborhood is in the heart of a bustling California beach town, the house itself remained serene, quiet and restful. There is a lovely backyard filled with birdsong in the mornings. Perfection!

Perfect stay!
My husband and I rented the cottage for PLNU Parents Weekend. We even had our son stay to get a break from dorm life. While it is a little drive from PLNU we still enjoyed it. Del Mar is beautiful. The cottage is in a wonderful neighborhood and had all you need for cooking or just relaxing. Beds and pillows were very comfortable. The backyard is charming. On our last full day we walked across the street to enjoy some relaxation on beach. The garage had towels, boards and sand toys for us. We highly recommend it and would love to stay again.

Adorable place
Everything was great except sleeping was difficult without air conditioning in the bedroom as it was hot and muggy that weekend. But so great otherwise and so near the fabulous dog beach— We’ll definitely go again! Wonderfully responsive hosts. Private, quiet, comfy.
