About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Walk to the beach! Heart of Ocean Beach!

It's a little bit funky, it's a little bit retro, and it's ALL beachy fun!

Located in the heart of one of San Diego's most famous beach communities and within walking distance to the ocean and to the heart of the Ocean Beach community, our place offers everything you might need to rest, rejuvenate and have some fun in San Diego!

Not only are we right down the street from shopping, restaurants and entertainment, but we are mere minutes from San Diego's best beaches, including Pacific Beach, La Jolla and Del Mar. Sea World is right around the corner, Balboa Park is just a hop, skip and a jump away, and the Gaslamp District is about 10 minutes down Interstate 5. Let's just say we're about 10 minutes from almost any place you might want to visit in our amazing city, as well as the San Diego International Airport!

This home is a tastefully designed one-bedroom with a full kitchen that can sleep four. Our beach cottage features a queen-sized bed, along with a very comfortable sofa sleeper. The kitchen is fully equipped for cooking, and amenities include free parking, free Wi-Fi, and Apple TV.

Guest Access

You will have access to the entire bungalow and all amenities, including the front yard outdoor space and, of course, sunny San Diego!

If you’re looking for a laid back beach to hang out like a local, look no further than Ocean Beach. This small beach town is a favorite among locals who spend their days surfing, sun bathing around the pier, hanging out and strolling through the many surf shops, taco stands and antique malls. Ocean Beach offers the pitch perfect throw-back groovy vibe of vintage SoCal, coupled with friendly locals, great dining, and a vibrant night life scene.

Nestled between the San Diego River and the hills of Point Loma, Ocean Beach is perfect for surfers to enjoy the waves created by jetties. The beach is super friendly for swimmers and sun bathers!

Getting around

A rental car is strongly recommended! Otherwise, Uber, Lyft and taxicabs are the best bets, but mediocre SoCal public transportation is also available. ;)

Great location! Close to great food options and beach was walkable. A cute little bungalow with great plants around the outside. Would be perfectly suited for a couple. There were limited linens and the kitchen was also pretty limited (ex. three bowls, only serrated knives). Beach towels, chairs, and sand toys were provided which was very appreciated. It got warm, so we were grateful for the many box fans. Property has seen some wear and tear since the pictures were taken, but is a great place to stay for the price point.

This place was fine for what we needed. However, it was incredibly dirty! The floors were full of dirt. The bedroom and bathroom had mold growing on the ceiling. The bedding and towels smelled terrible, to the point where I’m thinking they were not washed. The location and size were great.

The apartment smelt a bit like smoke and there were a few ants in the bedroom against the wall facing outside next to the planters (probably attracted to the moisture there, and we didn’t have any bites from them), but the place was cute, great location, and it was nice having a full kitchen. The host is very responsive and polite.
