Great Spot near Pacific Beach

Overall, this is a great property with good proximity to the Pacific Beach area (far enough away from noisy bars if you prefer).The unit is smaller, but still cozy and well furnished. Fans and A/C come in handy for warmer days - as does the front deck and BBQ grill. Some of the appliances are a little outdated by modern standards, but they still function well when you need them.

Great location near bay and beach

Cute little cottage with enough amenities for a 5 day stay. Bed was very comfortable. A/C in living room cooled front of cottage quickly. Location was perfect for us to visit family living in PB. Every morning walked about 3 miles to the beach strand and back. Great to have a parking spot. Always great to have a washer and dryer, and smart TV, too.

Cute! Perfect location for us!

We had a wonderful vacation! The place was clean, comfortable and looked just like the pictures. We were very pleased with the accommodations. We would have liked more timely information about details on key pick up and deposit return. It made us nervous that we might be part of a scam. Thank goodness, we weren't. We would love to try this again.

Pacific Beach during the Christmas holidays

This was the 2nd time we stayed at this location. Owners had made some significant upgrades since our initial stay in 2022 (better HVAC and entrance/deck). The location and cottage is perfect for 2 adults. Location is close to Mission Bay and within walking distance to everything in the Pacific Beach area. Check-in this time was a little cumbersome but that was because the owners were in the process of upgrading the cottages locks. The host was immediately available to assist us with the new automated lock system. Once access to the new lock system was resolved it was apparent that the upgraded lock was much better than the previous keyed system. We didn't need off street parking on this trip but there is a space right in front of the cottage which is very convenient. We would book this location in the future.

Nice little Pacific Beach cottage

The rental was clean and comfortable. Check-in was simple and parking was available, though we didn't use it. 20 minute walk to the beach was direct and lovely, while the PB businesses of Garnet and Grand were just a few short blocks away. The neighborhood felt very safe and other than a Saturday night garage band across the street, quiet too. (The band wrapped up promptly at 10:30p). The only short-coming was the _very_ creaky bed. It wasn't unstable, just loud. The mattress and foam topper were also too soft for my taste. Overall, a solid choice in PB for a couple on a long weekend.

Great neighborhood, clean & tidy, but disappointing

The best thing abt this rental is the location. PB is only 7 blocks away & with lots of bars & places to eat. The place is clean & tidy, but small. The patio is in full sun in the afternoon, and the umbrella does not provide usable shade b/c the porch is narrow, except early morning, and later in the evening. We stayed here in August, which can be hot, even in SD. The A/C unit cools the front room, but you need the floor fan for the bedroom & even then, it's warm. The biggest problems we had were the TV & the wifi. The TV/entertainment devices had three unlabelled remote devices. No instructions of any kind, not even to tell you which remote to use for what device. When we tried the Roku button on one device, it said that Roku was not connected. The TV has only 5 channels - all local TV. No national channels. The wifi was weak - the TV would freeze. Our Surface Pro & Ipad had weak/slow connections too, and we could not get a signal for our computers on the porch. Three internet speed tests gave an average download speed of 12.5 Mbps, and upload speed of 15.6 Mbps. No tissue paper & no bath soap for the tub/shower. Plenty of TP. Weird.

Excellent Central PB Location

Nice clean cottage, newly renovated. The location is excellent for the price. You are just a few blocks from the bay (Sail Bay), walking distance to pretty much everything you need. Close enough to the beach as well. Was very relaxing just sitting out and having drinks on the front deck area. Grill seemed brand new as well, very easy to use. I'd certainly recommend this unit as a place for 2 people to getaway and enjoy PB!

Wonderful Quarantine Stay

Renee and her husband are extremely responsive and wonderful hosts. They not only gave my girlfriend one of their personal bikes to use but they upgraded the internet during our 3 week stay to allow me to work from home. The place is quaint and very clean with all the necessities for a good home cooked meal. The front deck/grill is wonderful. Location to the beach and bay is wonderful. I’d stay at Oliver again without question.
