About this property

OCEAN BEACH, #1 Amore, Retro/Cozy, Studio Cottage, only 3 blocks to Beach!🏖

Come escape to the beach and get away from the craziness of life. OB is a vibrant, bohemian neighborhood with a fun SoCal beach vibe. You will be able to walk to great brewpubs and restaurants in just minutes. Stroll down Voltaire street and engage all your senses for all kinds of delights and sights. Our studio is located in one of the most desirable areas in Ocean beach. No matter what direction you head, you will find yourself immersed in the pulse and grove of OB. Located only 3 blocks from one of the most popular beaches in San Diego and the famous OB Pier. Short-Term Residential Occupancy License: STR-06950L

Stroll down to the beach, or mosey along popular Newport Ave. OB offers new brewpubs, fun restaurants, antique shops, surf shops, surfing, taquerias, and great sunsets.

Perfect for a romantic getaway or road trip destination!

There is no A/C but being so close to the beach, you get a great sea breeze, but just in case, there is a portable fan (stored in the closet).

Thoroughly cleaned and disinfected between stays and contact-free check-in. Check out our other units if this one is unavailable!

No house sharing when you book. You will have your own studio with privacy and a full kitchen that has an installed water faucet filter. The best grocery store you can imagine is right across the way. We welcome you. If we do not have availability, please check out

Great location. Good size for weekend get away. However there is a skylight which is nice during the day, although it makes the room very bright from sunup to sundown, meaning sleeping in can be difficult. If it could be covered at night time that would be amazing.

Cottage property on a Main Street in Ocean beach with easy walk to some coffee shops, pizza and a small brew pub. Short drive to SD airport, SD Zoo & Balboa Park, Sunset Cliffs and more. Cottage was clean and bed fairly comfortable. Being on a main drag and across from the fire department and near airport it was a little noisy at night. Street parking only but always found something if we came home later. Easy check in/out process. Good communication with host. Would recommend.

Francesca was so helpful and replied to any question immediately. #1AMORE was so cozy, so cute, and in a great location in Ocean Beach, allowing for easy walking everywhere. Admittedly, we didn't spend that much time there as we live in Wyoming, where we are headed into winter. It was so nice to be outside. But so nice to come back and relax. We will stay again in the future if we are in the area!

Such a cute little bungalow. It is small, but you dont need much space anyways. As noted in the listing, there is no ac, however we didnt need it. Theres plenty of shade around keeping it cool. I would stay here again.
