We enjoyed the place, awesome location the beach was amazing along with the deck. The room was very nice but the bed seem small for a queen but comfortable. Shower was too small. Couch was and had a nice little kitchenette. Location was so quiet and if you leave windows open you can hear the ocean waves.

The location is amazing. It was wonderful to hear the ocean waves all day and night and Easy walk to eateries. The units are small and compact, the shower is very small. My husband is 200lbs and not much room to move around. The blinds, though they look good don't go to bottom of window and let too much outside light in at night, I prefer a very dark room, so i wasn't happy for all the light.

The first night cuz we arrived late, it was easy to get into my room without any front desk. But our bed sheets wasn’t clean enough… there was dirty spots and footprints on them… I left messages so they changed all in the morning at 10 am. The staffs were friendly. But the situation was embarrassing for me cuz I booked the room for my parents to stay… we all slept on the dirty bed sheets the first night without any choice… besides that everything else was fine. They have beach umbrella and chairs you can borrow. Parking will be on the pacific st, I wish I know which room has onsite parking that can use, the whole time I was kind of worried of my car….

Perfectly Appointed & Accommodating
our condo had a separate bedroom and bath w/a comfortable queen bed, charging lamps, hairdryer, soap, shampoo, conditioner & bath towels. the kitchenette was fully equipped w/serving dishes & utensils and pans to cook on the stovetop, a toaster, a keurig (pods, sugar and creamers supplied). we were supplied w/instructions on how to use the TV & remote and there was a comfortable couch/sleeper sofa and kitchen table/chairs. the decor was pleasing and simple; not overly fussy. we were supplied with beach towels, luggage rack, iron & board and had the use of the communal beach chairs, umbrellas, wave boards and sand toys. A laundry room is available w/2 washers and dryers at a cost of $2/load; laundry soap was included. we were in town for a wedding at The Seabird Resort which was a 5 min walk from The Marbella. the Pier & many restaurants on Mission Ave were within walking distance for us. Beach access was conveniently right across the Strand! we thoroughly enjoyed our stay here.

Our room was small for three people, but it met our needs for seven nights. We loved the proximity to the beach. No housekeeping came to our room during our stay, so after sleeping there for a full week, we were ready to leave because we needed fresh towels and clean sheets. The property has beach chairs, beach towels, and sand toys available for use, which was awesome for us (a family with small children). My favorite part of the stay was sitting outside on the sun deck (it is so nice!) while reading a book and drinking my morning coffee. Our room did not come with a parking garage space but we never had any trouble finding a place to park on Pacific Street.

Where to start??? First we found the Marbella to have been just remodeled, so the rooms were clean and tidy. But know that the rooms are VERY small. With 2 people staying, their was limited room for luggage with only one luggage rack. My luggage stayed on the couch due to nowhere else to keep it. If your older DO NOT get an upper room. You have to lug everything up 2 to 3 floors. VERY little room for parking. If you don't get issued a garage, you get a parking pass to park on the street above the hotel with the 100,000 other beach go'ers and homeless sleeping on benches close to the entrance and bums crapping in the bushes. Positive things were that you are within walking distance to a variety of entertainment and food. The front patio is awesome. Endless people watching and cars parading down The Strand. Directly across the street from the beach, very convenient. I was dumbfounded by the parking and NO mention of the situation when booking. No management on duty to fill you in on your room or the parking procedures. Endless phone calls to the property manager and I finally had one of the cleaning ladies text the PM to call me and explain the parking. So in conclusion, some very fine things about the Marbella but more down things. More communications would have been nice.

Best Rentals in Oceanside!!
This quaint holiday rentals was very clean, convenient, comfortable. The unit I rented was for 2 days, it was a studio with a small kitchen area which came with everything, toaster, pots, pans, plates, coffee Keurig, microwave, small refrigerator, 2 unit electric stove and a garage. It was on the beach literally 25 feet away from the water. Walking distance from food, fishing, stores. I definitely will be returning here, it also has a convenient deck that you share a Bar BQ with other guests, who were all very kind. You don’t need a key to have access to your room a code they give you, easy friendly rental.

Great oceanfront location, tiny bathroom
When we arrived it was confusing where we were supposed to park. We were instructed to download an app but it wasn’t helpful. Customer service was responsive when we arrived but proactive instructions would have saved us time. The location close to the beach was lovely. Saturday morning they hosted yoga and coffee. That was fun. The bathroom was incredibly tight. No wiggle room. No counter space. The shower door bathroom door couldn’t open well. The bath mat didn’t fit. It was well decorated. No view of the ocean from the room unless you stood outside the front door.

We love our quick 2-nights stay here at Marbella. The location is literally right next to the beach with beautiful ocean view. The unit is nice and cozy with all the amenities you’ll need to prepare meals and even grill food as there’s a bbq grill at the shared patio deck! It’s definitely not a 5-star hotel but we are very happy with the service and will definitely come back to stay longer in the future!
