Absolutely fantastic property and amazing hosts. Great communication and helpful with checking in when had an issue with lock. Incredible area about a 5 minute walk to the beach. There's a ton of restaurants and gift shopping nearby. Also a lot of breweries and entertainment. Would absolutely stay here again and plan on it. Close to the midway and maritime museums. Also close to old town and the ball park. Getting to la Jolla and surrounding areas is also easy and you can take the scenic drive. Can't say enough positive things about our experience over 8 nights.

Cozy stay by the water

We enjoyed our stay, the location was perfect while we explored the area and met up with old friends. There was plenty of great dining options nearby and yet blocks from the beach. We recommend this property to anyone visiting San Diego. We would absolutely stay here again!

Eine sehr schöne kleine Wohnung, die fussläufig zum Strand und den Bars, Cafés und Restaurants liegt. Für zwei Personen genau richtig. Wir waren zu dritt, was schon recht eng wurde. Leider gab es kein Bettzeug für die dritte Person, was schade war, da wir uns mit großen Handtüchern aushelfen mussten, was bei dem Preis nicht akzeptabel war. Leider war der Vermieter an dem Wochenende unterwegs.

Perfect location in a perfect town

We love Ocean Beach; this rental is really well-equipped and perfectly located, walkable to the dog beach as well as a number of restaurants (Pazzo's pizza is pretty incredible). Erich and Taylor were responsive and all around excellent hosts, we'd love to come back soon!

Perfect stay

We loved this vacation, it had everything we needed. Our flight was coming in around noon in California and we hadn’t rented a car, but the owners arranged to have the cleaners come earlier so we could at least store our bags there - they were very accommodating and nice. The location and area were perfect - we had a great time!

Enjoyed a wonderful 5 night stay very conveniently located near dog beach and city beach. Just a short walk to the beach and nearby restaurants. We also walked to Sunset Cliffs. Erich and Taylor are great hosts and check-in/checkout are very easy. The rental is set up well with everything you need including beach chairs, towels and toys.

Great Location!

The property was exactly as described - nice, clean one bedroom beachy condo close to everything. Over the week, it was no more than a 10 minute drive to visit old town San Diego, SeaWorld, Balboa Park, Seaport Village, Boardwalk, and a 20 minute drive to Coronado Island A beautiful beach is just uo the street. Amazing restaurants in walking distance. As mentioned in the listing, it is in a flight path, but that didn’t bother us. We will definitely be back!
