How close is the beach?
It is an easy 5 minute walk to the beach. With 3.5 miles of wide sandy beaches, you can build sand castles, collect sea shells, surf, and play ball. We provide beach towels, chairs, umbrella, ice chest, and boogie boards. And if the sand isn’t calling your name, our 3 rd floor deck is a wonderful place to relax and look out to the ocean. We have a bar-height fire-pit table with seating to aide in enjoying the view.

How long have you owned Tremont Villa?
Established in 2006, Tremont Villa is jointly owned by the Nakashima and Bateman families. We live about 40 miles north of Oceanside and look forward to visiting our beach house whenever we can.
After hosting hundreds of guests from around the world experience a wonderful vacation, my deepest hope is that we'll be able to help you do the same.
With appreciation,
