Cabo Del Mar is a single-story, gated condominium community in Huntington Beach developed in 1983 and composed primarily of one-bedroom units with frequent loft conversions and two-bedroom variations. Buildings are low-rise with exterior features typical of Southern California complexes — landscaped greenbelts, private balconies/decks, rain gutters, and subterranean parking in many buildings. Interiors commonly show vaulted or cathedral ceilings, recessed lighting, fireplaces, wood or tile flooring, and architectural touches such as coffered or beamed ceilings, crown moldings, French/atrium doors, and built-in shelving. Floor plans favor open living areas with loft spaces reached by spiral or standard stairs, galley kitchens upgraded with granite, quartz, or solid-surface counters and stainless appliances, plus in-unit laundry or stacked washer/dryer hookups. Community amenities are resort-oriented: gated entry, heated pool and spa, sauna, clubhouse with kitchen and lounge space, lighted tennis and racquetball courts, and abundant guest parking. HOA dues often include water, trash, and some insurance coverage. The complex borders open natural areas and is within a short bike ride of beaches, wetlands trails, shopping centers, restaurants, and recreational facilities, offering a relaxed coastal lifestyle with easy freeway and PCH access.
