The Normandy House at Saint Malo Spacious and Charming Retreat with tons of amenities

This spacious three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath light and open floor plan house is located in the French chateau community of St. Malo. This community offers year-round summertime fun. The home features a lovely back patio with a gas fire pit, a large dining table, and a fantastic view of the Buena Vista Lagoon. The internal courtyard provides a beautiful space to dine and enjoy the outdoor lifestyle and fabulous Southern California weather. The house is a short walk to the beach on private streets (no stairs).

Saint-Malo Beach is a 76-year-old gated community once a hidden paradise for movie stars and Los Angeles executives. The architecture is Normandy village style. The community was inspired by the island city of St. Malo, located off the Brittany coast of France. St Malo features a private beach with a clubhouse cabana, summer lifeguards, a barbecue, a covered patio, a sand volleyball court, a paddle tennis court, 2 tennis courts., and 4 pickleball courts. Prince Phillip and Princess Anne stayed at St. Malo while in San Diego during their visit to the Summer Olympics in 1984. The neighborhood has a very European feel and is considered one of the best locations in Oceanside and San Diego.

Beautiful home and neighborhood

We loved our stay here at Malo Beach. We didn’t lack for anything during our stay, between the well stocked kitchen, garage full of toys (bikes, tennis rackets, boogie boards etc) and roomy accommodations for our group of 7 we enjoyed a Thanksgiving holiday to remember. The location is beautiful, quiet and safe. We were steps from the beach and loved the quaint Malo Beach neighborhood. Will definitely be back!
