Dear Faith, 
What a wonderful vacation and it was the little things that mattered 
most: A quiet backyard after an  
active day at the beach, the morning walk to get coffee at the local 
cafe, the chimes, the great  
books stashed in the quaint nooks of the house, the gorgeous garden, 
the quiet neighborhood, and of  
course the showcase home that felt both classy and cozy.  
This spot was a gem, and we are also grateful we rented Seaview Villa, 
as it gave us easy beach  
access and splendid sunset views over dinner. We look forward to next 
year!

Sit back and relax in the jacuzzi tub as you gaze out to the roses  
that entwine the old wrought iron of the Master Bath, and recline in  
a distressed leather chair by the roaring fireplace for those  
chillier San Diego evenings.

Activities and Attractions

Oceanside is North of San Diego county, and perfectly located  
halfway between Laguna and the city of San Diego.  Just two blocks  
from Coast Hwy 101, and to the local train station,you will find  
Casa By The Sea a haven away from the bustle of the tourists. 
  
 Walk to the Oceanside Pier, the longest pier in  
Southern California, where you can view  all the exciting  
development that is currently making Oceanside the "Talk of the  
Town."  
 
Downtown Oceanside is just blocks away from Casa By The Sea, where  
you will find funky shops and restaurants for that true Southern  
California beach experience, or or visit the Civic Center and  
Oceanside Art Museum just three blocks away. 
  
The Village of Carlsbad is just a mile away from Casa By The Sea,  
and from there you can drive down the coast and visit Encinitas,  
Cardiff, Solano Beach, Del Mar and La Jolla,- all within a mile of  
each other on the 101.  
 
The Coaster, San Diego's premier transit station can be accessed  
within a five minute walk, where for just a few dollars a day you  
can commute from the city of Los Angelos to the bustling nightlife  
of San Diego county, without ever needing a car.  
 
The best part of your day however, will probably  
be found in enjoying a famous Southern California sunset, from the  
comfort of your own private front porch.   
 
MY PICKS 
 
CUDDLE WITH A BEAR.  
SLEEP OVERNIGHT AT (THE AMAZING) WILD ANIMAL PARK- Roar & Snore  
offers a variety of themed nights to choose from: Adults-only Nights

purchase cocktails while partying with the lions at Kilmia Point.  
Then its one big overnight lovefest with the wild animals. They even  
have upgraded tents for fussy campers. Family Nights for families  
with children ages 4 and up with special activities geared for the  
children. wildanimalparkdotorg 
 
RENT A KAYAK OR BOAT -or sign up for an Outrigger or Whale Watching  
Expedition: 256 Harbor Dr. in Oceanside 
 
CYCLE the San Luis Rey River Trail. You can pick up at Coast Highway  
and Neptune Dr. and follow the path of the San Luis Rey River. This  
trail also runs behind Seaview Villa. Bikes can be rented anywhere  
around the same area. 
 
OUTDOOR FARMERS MARKETS The place to go for inexpensive and fresh  
fruits and vegetables for your gourmet dinners. Wednesday and  
Saturday 2:00 to 5:00 on Roosevelt in downtown Carlsbad. Watch for  
the Street Fair/Farmers Market that is coming this summer to downtown  
Oceanside by the pier. Entertainment and festivities for all while  
you select from choice produce. 5 to 9 pm.  
 
ANTIQUE STORES - STATE STREET in Carlsbad Village. Or take a country  
drive to Escondido or Julian, where you can find great buys and  
interesting pieces for great prices. 
 
WINE TASTING - Our lovely Temeculah Wine Country offers beautiful  
scenery and some great little vintages.  
Also,check out Old Town for antiques. Thornton Winery gets my votes  
for Best Wine Tasting - always served with hot baked bread.  
Note: Their summer jazz concerts are pricey but worth it. 
 
GLEN IVY HOT SPRINGS SPA - A little further north on the 15 from the  
Wine Country is this delightful day spa. For less than 50 bucks you  
get to spend the entire day relishing in a tropical wonderland  
of "Its All About Me" indulgement. Check out the underground caverns  
and discover a new layer of skin after scouring the mud off your sun  
worn body in the famous mud baths. Get a massage for no other reason  
than to have one of their very handsome young boys lead you back to a  
secluded hut for a guilt free rendevous. Some say this spa and its  
healing waters were founded by The Mafia - I say it was founded by  
the gods of bliss.  
 
FOUR SEASONS HOTEL - for hanging around poolside: Just act like you  
belong there! Along with world class golf Okay: you may have to pay  
for THAT privilege: fourseasondotcom 
 
LA COSTA RESORT �� is easily my personal favorite serenity spot.  
Purchase a massage and you get to play Queen for the day while  
enjoying all the amenities. The grounds are beautiful ��especially  
at night. Try the Blue Fire Grill for Happy Hour. lacostadotcom 
 
BEST OUTLET ANYWHERE IN THE PLANET 
THE CARLSBAD COMPANY STORES 
premiumoutletsdotcom 
 
QUICK BITE: Buckaneer Beach Club is a few yards away from Seaview  
Villa, across from Buckaneer Beach. Excellent fresh Ahi sandwiches,  
Breakfast Burritos and Fish Tacos. Open by Chance �� but one worth  
taking 
 
HILL STREET COFFEE SHOP �� 524 Coast Hwy 
Organic �� healthy fare and a great little courtyard setting in an  
old Victorian house.  
In the same setting, you will find a serene Spa and a better than  
average Sushi restaurant. Best of all, it ��s a 2 minute walk from  
Casa By The Sea. 
 
THE PIERVIEW WAY COFFEE SHOP:  
I like to cruise down the beach - jog down the pier and cross back  
over to this coffee shop for a egg and cheese sandwich on fresh  
ciabatta bread. Just remember that your eggs always come scrambled in  
Southern California. (They will look at you weird if you ask to have  
it fried)  
 
VIGILUCCIS Anything that says Vigiluccis on the Coast is going to be  
good. Check out their newest restaurant: Osteria, located on Mission  
in Oceanside. Great wine list and close enough to walk from Casa By  
The Sea. vigiluccisdotcom 
 
VINE TO GLASS �� On Mission. Pretty decent little tasting bar with  
interesting collection of smaller reserves.  
 
BAJA LOBSTER AT THE HARBOR 
Buckets of fresh lobster and marinated chicken and carne asada. Plus  
a great Caesar and Salsa Bar. You can once again dream about being a  
boat owner and then just as quickly remember the price of gas and go  
back to humbly eating your taco.  
 
DOMINICS AT THE HARBOR Hole in the Wall GREAT Italian Restaurant.  
Fabulous pizza with out of this world crust. Dominic might just crack  
open one of his better Chiantis if you ask really nicely.  
 
 
BEST HAUNTS ON COAST HWY 101:  
The Panikin Restaurant in Leucadia: A Pre-Starbucks Funky Coffee  
House. Try the curry chicken salad on one of their fresh baked  
bagels.  
 
THE SELF REALIZATION CENTER �� In Cardiff - just walk through the  
ornate iron gate and take in the magic of these serene gardens  
overlooking the Pacific. No charge to discover who you REALLY are -  
but donations accepted.  
 
THE CEDROS DESIGN DISTRICT 
Just behind the historical train station off Lomas Santa Fe and Coast  
Hwy.  
 
BEST OCEANVIEW RESTAURANT 
The Beach House in Cardiff on 101:  
Dine upstairs �� cuz you may get splashed on the lower level when  
the surf comes crashing over the rocks.  
 
BEST MEXICAN FOOD  
My choice is Las Olas in Carlsbad on Coast Hwy or across from The  
Beach House above. Try the Sour Cream Enchiladas with a fresh mango  
Margarita. Best Salsa too! 
 
BEST MEXICAN PARTY PLACE 
COYOTES - For good food and live bands- w/ cozy outdoor firepits for  
great margarita conversations - Carlsbad Village 
 
BEST FAST FOOD MEXICAN 
We have more of these than other cities have McDonalds. I like  
Roberto ��s on Oceanside Blvd and 101 and Juanita ��s in Encinitas.  
For the best bowl of Mexican Chicken Soup in the city, try La  
Especial Norte in Leucadia.  
 
BEST HAPPY HOUR 
Calypso Café and its sister restaurant: Pappagallos for spicy south  
pacific fare and an excellent wine list. Located in Leucadia ��  
right before Encinitas. Blink and you might miss it.  
 
BEST DATE PLACE 
Vigiluccis on State Street in Downtown Carlsbad. Tranquil and  
romantic. Also private enough that you can play footsies or something  
a little more daring. 
 
BEST PIZZA 
Again, our local Restaurateur, located in Leucadia near Calypso Café:  
vigiluccisdotcom Gotta try the Four Cheese Pizza even if you are a  
Die-Hard Sauce person.  
 
BEST BURGER 
Roadhouse Grill: Next door to the Best Pizza guys above.  
 
BEST BEACH WALK  
Buckaneer Beach South to Carlsbad Village 
 
SECOND BEST BEACH WALK 
The Seawall in Carlsbad. Park at the West end of Carlsbad Village  
Drive 
 
BEST DRIVE UP THE COAST 
Oceanside to San Clemente. Go to Del Mar Avenue for fabulous antique  
and boutique shops. Try the Blue Fire Grill for dinner. Check out the  
all day Farmers Market on Sundays.  
 
BEST BOOKSTORE; 
Barnes and Noble in Oceanside - across from Trader Joe's. Ask for a  
copy of my new book: POPCORN POPPIN ON THE APRICOT TREE - By Faith  
Paulus Or go to my website by the name of the same title, and order  
an autographed copy to be ready for your arrival! 
 
 
Go to Carlsbad Visitors site for a calender of events including the  
free Friday night concerts in the park!
