When it comes time to start planning your upcoming spring break getaway, you, as grown adults, perhaps with children of your own, are not looking for the parties you enjoyed during your single days. You had your good times back then, of course, but today you prefer your own space, your wine to come out of a bottle with a cork and a higher price tag, and your “roommates” (with the exception of your spouse or partner) are far under the drinking age! Coming from the cold Midwest, where chances are a late winter storm will be hitting your town, you want beaches, sunny skies, and the opportunity to wear that new swimsuit you purchased online. What you don’t want, however, is to fight for your space on those beaches, nor do you want to have to explain the birds and the bees to your own littles! Oceanside, California is the solution to your spring break escape, offering a family vacation that will give you everything you want and nothing you don’t need! And because you are long past the days of finding cheap and noisy motels acceptable, our Brick House escapes will offer luxury, charm, and never-ending peeks of the ocean you can’t get enough of, making them the ideal seasonal sanctuary for your Oceanside Spring Break escape to California!
Soak in the Warmth
Of course, you are going to want to start your California adventures with a trip to the beach! The warm air and sunny skies invite you to slip out of your traveling clothes and into your swimwear and flip-flops and walk the short walk to the beach that lies within view of your Brick Hotel escape! Stake your claim on the section of beach that makes you happiest, spreading out your towels, pushing the pole of your umbrella into the sand, and placing your chairs and/or loungers where the view of the water is best. Your cooler filled with beverages and drinks will ensure you don’t have to run back to your sanctuary and a good book will hold your attention until it drops to your chest, your eyes flutter to a close, and you begin to enjoy one of the best naps of your life! The sounds of waves crashing against sandy beaches, the cries of seagulls and other seabirds, and the laughter and chatter of other happy beachgoers will serve as the perfect lullaby for your tired body and brain!
LEGOLAND California, One Legoland Drive in Carlsbad
Traveling with littles can be a tricky proposition as you try to find activities that everyone will enjoy, but we think a visit to LEGOLAND will do just the trick!

Step into Comfort
Turquoise is the color of choice for jewelry, the color of the sea when the sun shines down on it, and the color that graces the front door of Pacific Villas Unit 4. A small seating area off to the side of the door also offers a touch of turquoise in the basket chairs placed there to help enjoy another angle of the Pacific Ocean but may soon be forgotten when you step inside for the first time. The footprint of Unit 4 is a cozy one, but bright white walls and generous windows will make the space seem much larger than it really is. Offering an open-concept floor plan, there are no secrets in this charming escape, just multiple ways to do your own thing while staying connected to your traveling companions.
A wide planked engineered flooring stained the color of driftwood lying on the beach leads the way to a cozy living room anchored by a navy blue velvet couch that we can attest will be the perfect spot to enjoy a nap on a lazy afternoon. Open the windows to let the ocean breezes sweep over you and allow the sounds of the waves crashing against the sandy beaches just below act as a peaceful lullaby. A beehive fireplace painted white and tucked away in the corner adds vintage charm and the television mounted to the wall at the corner of the breakfast bar provides a modern touch that will be much appreciated. This cozy condo doesn’t offer a dining room, per se, but the aforementioned breakfast bar provides the ideal spot to enjoy every meal if you choose to eat “at home.”
The kitchen of Unit 4 offers the charm of a much larger space and the turquoise glass tile backsplash adds drama to the room. Offering everything you need to create a feast or keep your beverages cold, the 4 burner gas range, refrigerator, and microwave are high-end ones of stainless steel. There is no dishwasher in the compact kitchen, but you may not mind the chore of washing dishes when performed in front of a window that offers more views of the sea! Now, this Pacific Villas unit is designed to be a cozy escape, built for couples in love or single travelers and offering sleeping space for 2 in the large single bedroom. Offering a comfortable queen bed and easy access to the solo bathroom, sleep will come easy after a long day of play in Oceanside, and dreams are destined to be happy ones. The bathroom offers a walk-in shower and updated fixtures and complimentary shampoo, bath gel, and conditioner can be found in the subway-tiled shower.
The Balcony You Will Never Want to Leave
The back balcony of Unit 4 offers virtually unobstructed views of the Pacific Ocean and conveniently provides 2 comfortable seats that are arguably the best seats in the house. Sitting out here on a sunny day, watching the ever-changing sea and the people that have come to play is a treat you will never forget, especially at sunset. The colors in the sky reflect on the surface of the water and as the sun slowly dips below the horizon, the sky darkens, and the stars start to blink on, one by one, you may find yourself never wanting to leave this chair, this balcony, this corner of paradise! Stormy days can be spent inside playing games or watching television, but the protection of the roof will allow you to come outside and watch Mother Nature throw a serious temper tantrum!
