About this house rental

The Tourmaline House is the charming beach getaway you've been looking for. It's a real house, lovingly landscaped, with a grassy backyard to relax in after a day of San Diego exploration. We are located in Pacific Beach, just a 1000ft (300m) walk to the beach. Walk or take one of our bikes to explore the boardwalk, bay, shops and restaurants without the need of a car.
With top-quality furnishings, an enclosed backyard retreat, and amenities like bikes, high speed internet for work and streaming, baby items and beach gear, all included – you will find privacy and retreat from the hustle and bustle when it's time to chill.

We can accommodate up to 8 guests and 2 dogs in our home. The entire house is wheelchair accessible, and we've had several handicapped guests to date. We don't have AC. Photos in the listing were taken in 2023.

Have an electric vehicle? We now offer our guests the convenience of charging at home. Just select the electricity fee when booking, and bring your own cable to use our 240volt plug in the garage.

The Master Suite is a luxurious retreat with a King size bed, two closets, smart TV and an indulgent large bathroom finished in travertine and glass tile. A dual sink vanity separates the spacious walk-in shower on the right from the enclosed toilet on the left. There is enough space in front of the bed to add a pack’n’play and easily walk around.

The Queen Bedroom is next to the Master Suite and sleeps 2 in a queen bed.
The Kid’s Bedroom sleeps 4 guests in 2 twin over twin bunk beds.
A large full bath on the hall has a real Jacuzzi. A separate area has a dual sink vanity.

Enjoy full access to a stocked kitchen, enclosed grassy backyard with propane grill, parking for 2 cars. Beach gear is included: chairs, umbrella, boogie boards, cooler plus 2 bikes, beach wagon and scooter. We also have a portable crib and a baby chair.

The house sits just 2 blocks off the beach (Tourmaline Surf Park), a 5 minute walk. This part of the beach is the north end of Pacific Beach, a local's paradise, as the tourist crowds concentrate further South.

A 3 minute walk from the house you'll find Turquoise St, with a grocery store and numerous shops and restaurants. You will also be equally close to cute cafes and restaurants on Cass St. Easily reachable on bike are the beach boardwalk and Garnet Avenue, the center of the beach nightlife.

We also have a 3-bedroom town home in Pacific Beach available. Please check out the Felspar Townhome, VRBO listing #295172

Great location! Perfect for 2 couples. Quick walk, block and 1/2, to Tourmaline Surf Park. 2 blocks to specialty grocery store, Oscars incredible taco shop, good Hawaiian food. Walk to La Jolla. Beach gear provided a little worn. Comfy beds, plenty of room for 2 couples. Very busy road, noisy with windows open. Nice table, chairs, umbrella in back yard with gas BBQ.

This home is conveniently located near Tourmaline Beach (walking distance) as well as several restaurants and shops. The home is located on a busy street so be careful when backing out of the driveway especially when there are cars parked on the street that can obstruct your view. Also the driveway curb doesn't line up with the garage, so you'll have to park diagonally on the driveway. We found all of the items listed on the inventory list for the house in the garage, including boogie boards, wagons, beach chairs, etc. There is no air conditioning but it was a cooler weekend when we visited so we did not have any issues with temperature. The house has three bedrooms and one of the bedrooms has double bunk beds which are great for families with kids. There are two bathrooms (one in the master bedroom and one in the hallway). The property manager was responsive to our inquiries before and during our stay. The master bedroom bed was comfortable but the queen bed in the second bedroom was not quite as comfortable. Overall, we had a comfortable stay and would recommend this house if you're looking for a home that's located close to the beach and other amenities.

The owner of this property was very communicative and responsible of all of our requests. Unfortunately, the house is not as clean as we had hoped. Additionally when we did try to use the barbecue, it ran completely out of gas. The additional gas bottle left beside the barbecue was also empty.

Property was fantastic! Great location just blocks from Tourmaline Beach, restaurants and bars. House was very well appointed with everything that we needed for a 5 week stay. Backyard was great! Our host Juliana was great communicating with us and providing neighborhood recommendations. We would love to stay at this property again!!

We stayed for four nights. House is nice and clean. It seems to be close to everything. Our farthest drive was 20 minutes. Back yard was nice for the dogs. Would and probably will stay again.
