Southern California Beach Club Reviews & Ratings

No other resort has this unique location. Just steps from the sandy beach and less than 5 min walk to the oceanside peer.

Resort is maintained as 5 stars one.

This unit is a townhome style with 2 bedrooms on upper floor and kitchen, reception with Sofabed on lower floor. Sleeps 6

Location, location, location! Walk across the road with your free use of chairs & umbrellas for beach time. Full kitchen for meals or Bike (free use of bikes) to numerous close by restaurants. Then, watch the amazing sunsets from the resort deck. On the other hand, nearby activities include: California Surf Museum, Carlsbad Premium Outlets, Flower Fields at Carlsbad Ranch, LEGOLAND California, San Diego Zoo, Sea World San Diego, The Crossings Golf Course, USS Midway Museum

This resort is right on the beach. Rooms have had a makeover with new furniture, great for families! Restaurants, theaters and shops all walking distance!

In terms of proximity to the water, it doesn't get any better or closer. The surf is perfect for recreation-- surfers stay near the pier, swimmers are in the in-shore. Units that face the ocean-- the ocean front units are best. All 2 bedroom units are on top and have good views from the room or patio. All studios are full ocean view-- 5 of them are ground level-- 20 ft. from the sand. And, the other is on level 2, unit 206, and it's fully ocean front- fantastic view. The interior units lack a view from the balcony-- which isn't bad, but the beach experience is SO much better when you look out your window and see a surfer 50 yards away. Interior end units can be decent, giving you a partial ocean view. But, there are a few interior units that lack air circulation and people complain about stuffiness, heat. The jacuzzi up top is a nice way to end the day. And, the bbq's on level two are convenient. Complimentary bike rentals-- it's fun to cruise the "boardwalk." You can walk to the harbor for morning coffee from a shack on the bay-- just about 1 mile. Lots to do; it's a perfect California beach experience-- lots of culture. There is no match for the proximity to the action on the beach. And, I've been to nearly all the coastal timeshare resorts in CA.

I stayed at this resort last year. Loved it so much I had to buy a week. Resort has just been recently remodeled and looks fantastic. Remodel will be complete April 06. Oceanfront units are the only way to go. Your balcony is almost on the sand, you're that close. Rooms have full sized, fully equipped kitchens.

Sitting on the balcony with friends.. playing poker, BBQing, drinking a beer and watching the sunset. Doesn't get much better than that.

The city of Oceanside used to have a bad rep. It has been cleaned up. New resturants, condo's, retail is popping up all around.

I used to stay in an oceanfront hotel room. $350/night during summer. and its a hotel room. Timesharing is the way to go for our family.

4th of July is crazy here.. Unless you are into partying and getting crazy. I'd stay away that week. The rest of the summer is very family oriented and safe.

Friendly and helpful staff. Immaculate setting. One warning. The area is a haven for homeless characters. Lock your car, and the door to your room. I left a handcarved ivory cane I had just bought at a street fair (4th of July and lots of fun) leaning on the wall next to the door for just a second. It was gone in a flash.

Good police protection on the beach side. The police station is just half a block down the boardwalk from the resort. The resort opens on the street, and you exit from the back to the beach. I was impressed with how well they handled the huge July 4th crowd. The fireworks are known state-wide for being spectacular and are launched right in front of the resort on a barge in the ocean.

The best of the best ! ! I have owned many oceanfront units at Southern Calif Beach Club over the past 23 years. About half of the units are smack dab on the ocean with unobstructed ocean views.. It doesn't get any better than that ! !

The unit has plenty of room and is right on the beach which is literally steps away. Enjoy the early morning surfers while sipping your coffee on the balcony. It sleeps 4 comfortably as it is quite spacious and includes two TV's, a desk, sofa and comfortable chair. Dining area seats 4 comfortably. All kitchen supplies are available and even a K-Cup coffee maker is available upon request. There is also free coffee in lobby until 11 am. The staff is more than friendly and always available. Walk to great restaurants, many of which have live music, and nice shops. There is a weekly farmer's market and art walk nearby. I love coming here to just enjoy the beach and the cool evenings. I am just unable to use the week this year.

Just LOVE this place. Few steps and you are in the send/water...Sitting on the balcony watching the life bellow... If you get lucky you can also spot dolphins ...Listening to the crashing waves .... Walking on the beach, being at the pier, going to local restaurants/ bars, Browsing Thursday local market, life bands music....Amazing place with LOTS OF FUN!!!!

Beautiful oceanfront condo just steps from the sand. Many restaurants within walking distance. Parking on site. BBQ, spa, and bicycles available to enjoy!

Ideal location for relax beach community atmosphere. Short drive to LEGOLAND and Flower Fields of Carlsbad.

Just south of the pier, right on the beach. Week 38 is perfect, kids back in school, warm water, soft sand. Oceanside has become a resort destination with lots of activities. This resort is well maintained. Selling due to age and health related problems. We've had 20 years of fun here.

This resort is beautiful and cozy. It's a smaller property, practically on the sand (just the strand between you and the sand). Oceanside use to be a sleepy beach town but now it is bustling with restaurants, entertainment and perhaps, arguably one of the best sunset farmers markets you will ever find.

The resort rents out for free chairs and towels which are pretty standard for beach resorts, however, it also rents out bikes and you can cruise on the small 1 mile strand below or it connects to a much larger bike path nearby.

I've owned here for the past 11 years and it is one of my most treasured weeks.

Oceanfront Resort with great proximity to all things Oceanside Beach. Walking distance to great restaurants, etc. Beach just steps away from resort!

The Southern California Beach Club is a beautiful location just a few steps from the beach. Additionally, it’s one of the only oceanfront resort in San Diego! I’ve lived in San Diego all of my life and it’s very hard (and very expensive) to get a room this close to any beach, let alone an awesome beach like the ones in Oceanside.

The room is spacious and well equipped. The beds are very comfortable with plenty of pillows. If you have to work remotely or just enjoy streaming, the wifi is very strong here. And for the cherry on top, the staff is top-notch, friendly, and very accommodating.

Besides the resort being really comfy, it’s also within walking distance to food, shopping and the pier. It’s located within driving distance of Los Angeles attractions like Disneyland, Knotts Berry Farm, and Universal Studios while also being close to San Diego attractions like Legoland, the San Diego Zoo, and Seaworld.

Its the perfect place to unwind and enjoy the sunsetting over the Pacific Ocean.

Wonderful, low key beachfront property in Oceanside. Everything you need for the week of fun and relaxation is within walking distance. Also, close drives to many family theme parks.

Updated: Most rooms have been renovated.. they look great and new management is really good.

Awesome location on a very wide stretch of beach. lots to do in the Area. Surf competitions, volleyball, Outdoor amphitheater with great free concerts. Right next to the pier. Free bicycle and beach equipment from the resort. Right on the beach, listen to the ocean while you sleep. Our family has a fabulous time every year

Feels like home when I return the year after year! The beach is steps away and sounds of the ocean will lull you to sleep! Staff is super friendly and helpful! Units are very clean. Everything you need for a relaxation week on the beach. Stores and restaurants are walking distance. Not even necessary to rent a car!

***From SCBC, you are only a few steps from the sand and surf of the Pacific Ocean. YOU will be amazed at the World-Class Sunsets, the Jacuzzi w/ocean view, and the many delightful amenities at the SCBC. When you first take-in the spectacular sparkling ocean views and, later, the setting sun blazing across the horizon, you will know that this is the beginning of your epic adventure at the Southern California Beach Club.

Really enjoyed our stay at this resort. Beautiful ocean front property with a wonderful beach. Good location for a Southern California vacation. Would love to return.
