About this house rental
Your comfortable home base on a very quiet street in north Pacific Beach. Only a few blocks from the beach -- easy walking or biking distance to everything you'll need.
Updated home has TWO MASTER BEDROOMS (one king, one queen), each with new linens, tile floors, private bathrooms, lots of light and nice separation of space.
In the front bedroom, French doors open to a private fenced patio with lush landscaping and patio seating around a small fire pit. The back bedroom opens to a second patio with a fully fenced yard and BBQ, and patio set for four. Oversized one-car garage, so parking is never an issue, and outdoor shower off the garage.
In addition to the fully-stocked kitchen, there are flat-panel SmartTVs in each room with secure 400mbps WIRELESS internet for work, gaming or streaming. YouTubeTV for your local channels, too. There is a full-size WASHER/DRYER in the garage.
Beach cruiser bikes, boogie boards, surfboards, ice chests, beach chairs/toys are on the side of the house for your use. Port-a-crib and high chair also available for guests' use.
Less than 1/2 mile walking distance to the long, beautiful stretch of sandy beaches, with Tourmaline and Law St surfing spots just north of Crystal Pier at the foot of the street. There is also a small grassy park (yoga classes are held here!), clean bathrooms, and lifeguards. The Bird Rock area of La Jolla is just to the north, with more beaches, the Cove, tidepools, shops, restaurants, Torrey Pines, the Birch Aquarium, and UCSD. Express bus to UCSD a few blocks away on Mission Blvd.
JUST MINUTES from Sea World, the San Diego Zoo, Balboa Park, and Mission Bay. Easy freeway access makes sightseeing beyond the beach a breeze.
Hop on one of the beach cruiser bikes (or tricycle for the littlest one) for a ride through the neighborhoods or on the 16-mile boardwalk along the beach.
When the sun goes down, enjoy roasting marshmallows in the fire pit or barbecue on the patio.
PLEASE NOTE that this is NOT a party house -- perfect for families and small groups. It is in a safe, quiet neighborhood and we'd like to keep it that way. Sadly, to avoid potential allergy problems, four-legged family members are not allowed.

Stayed here with our three kids 9 and under for a week. We walked to the beach several times, and the house was in close range to everything else during our stay. The neighborhood was very quiet, and everyone we met on walks was friendly. House had everything we needed, and we made good use of the boogie boards. Would definitely return!

If you’re looking for the perfect place to stay in the PB area with your family, this is it! It’s walking distance to the beach and a ton of coffee shops and restaurants. The house was stocked with everything you could possibly need and we were surprised how quiet it was at night. With a teen and a toddler it can be hard to accommodate both their needs but this house managed to do just that. Since we have a toddler we spent many evenings having dinner on the patio and spending quality time together in the cozy living room. We were able to walk down and see the sunset and even got a few evening bike rides in. Would also recommend checking out La Jolla and you’re only a few hours from LA. Rowena was THE nicest host and checked in during our stay to make sure check in went smoothly and if there was anything we needed. 10/10 recommend!

This cute two bedroom bungalow that was perfect for my family. Rowena was very responsive and immediately resolved a small issue we had when checking in. Definitely an enjoyable vacation.

Rowena was one of the best hosts we have ever met. Her responsiveness was amazing. With a fully stacked place, there was very little left to purchase or obtain upon arrival. The location is fabulous and very close to food, restaurants and the beach. I would recommend this place.

We had a great stay at this property. A slight hiccup checking in, but Rowena was quick to respond and always available during our stay whenever we had questions. The property was clean and well-appointed and near the northern end of Pacific Beach which was clean and relatively quiet during our stay. Though it was windy and the water too cold for us to take advantage, there were boogie boards and plenty of beach gear for use, as well as bikes for cruising. We highly recommend this place.

San Diego get away
My two teenagers were so surprised to walk into the rental and find a beautiful fruit basket waiting for us. After a long drive, it was very welcome. Rowena is a gracious host. We ha trouble getting the fire pit to work and she came over within minutes of us calling her. Everything was nice a clean and the kitchen was well stocked. The location was also great (Close to the beach) and other San Diego attractions. Also in very nice nieghborhood. I highly recommend this property.

Wilbur street
We enjoyed the house, although it was more just a base…we had activities every day with our children and grandchildren but did manage to walk the neighborhood a bit and enjoy a couple of restaurants nearby!

Great stay
Rowena was great to work with. Easy to reach and answer any questions we had. You could tell she's put a lot of thought into what people may need to have a great stay. We will stay again when we're in San Diego.

Great place to stay in PB
Rowena's place was wonderful and I would stay there again. Rowena was very responsive to questions and small problems that came up. A microwave malfunctioned and she brought a replacement in almost immediately. She also made sure 4 bikes were in working order when I inquired. We really enjoyed being able to bike around the area. My son was also able to find a wetsuit and surfboard to fit him! We found everything we needed. We loved using the yard and especially the fire pit. The website does need to be updated with some new information, but that is not a big deal. There was no longer a usable outside shower and no jetpack deal any more (which my son had been excited about doing). The pandemic has changed some things. The pictures probably need to be updated as there are changes to furnishings, but that is a minor issue. The place was clean and lovely and we really had a great time. Thank you for your hospitality!

Perfect place to stay!
Our family stayed at Rowena’s property this past weekend, and all I can say is, wow! Perfect location close to the beach and everything you’d want to do in PB.
The check-in process was easy, the house was sparkling clean and welcoming, the outdoor space was lovely, all in all we could not have asked for more. Rowena was a lovely and responsive host who answered our questions thorougly and thoughfully. Thank you for a wonderful family vacation!

What a lovely gem! Exceeded our expectations and Rowena’s an angel. We will absolutely return.
Rowena was incredibly lovely to work with. Her home is immaculate and exactly as described. The area is quiet and we felt safe the entire time. We will absolutely return!

beautiful home, great neighborhood, used bikes, loved the house and yard.
Property was fabulous. One of the showers flooded the first night. The toilet bubbled and backed up into the shower. It smelled and we couldn't use that bathroom. VERY FRUSTRATING.

Highly recommended
The property was everything as advertised. It was clean, comfortable, on a quiet street and a great location easily accessible to all attractions. The house also was furnished and equipped with everything we could possibly want. We would stay here again if we come back to San Diego.

Absolutely Perfect
The property was super clean. The location was centrally located to many attractions. The walk to the beach was easy. The layout of the home is fantastic. The kitchen was stocked as advertised (I have stayed at VR that advertise full kitchen and was not able to cook) This kitchen had everything you could possibly need : ) Thank you. The owner and staff were incredibly nice. Thank you so much for sharing your lovely beach home.

Perfect little home away from home!
It was super easy to ask questions of Rowena & she was super helpful about all the many items she has at the cottage for guests use as well as neighborhood tips & parking directions...and more! Couches comfy to rest after sightseeing & beds comfy with nice bedding for a good nights sleep. If you wanted to cook, the kitchen had everything you need. North Pacific Beach is centrally located and only 15 min away from the city, pier, La Jolla & our other destinations, plus the best place to watch surfers. The only problem was the lack of sunshine which was out of her control! Lol
If we are back in San Diego again we’ll definitely try to book it again!

Cute and clean and perfect location!!!
We had an amazing stay on Pacific Beach in San Diego!!! The home we chose was truly close to all the activities we had on our itinerary and it was in a very quiet area where we could get good sleep at night!!! The home was clean and decorated so nicely!! All items needed were provided, and there was even a yummy coffee cake waiting for us upon our arrival!!

Awesome visit to San Diego
My husband and I traveled to San Diego for the first time with 2 of our adult children. The house was spacious enough for the four of us. Rowena was an awesome host. She responded to me in a timely manner and even allowed a late check out. The house was in a perfect location. It was close to major attractions and was exactly as the pictures portrayed. It was very clean and the kitchen was well stocked. The front courtyard was a great place to relax in the morning. The beds in both bedrooms were super comfortable and even the towels were fluffy, not your typical rental linens. The washer and dryer were an added bonus. The garage had everything you needed for spending time at the beach which is within walking distance, but we decided to drive instead. There is also a fire pit in the backyard that was nice to use on some of the chilly nights. I would highly recommend staying at this gem of a property. Thank you Rowena for being such a great host and allowing us to share your home.

We stayed the week and loved it. It was cute, comfy and had everything we needed. Nice community and close to the beach.

Better than Advertised
This home has everything you could ever need and some things you didn't know you needed! Rowena was fantastic to work with and more than willing to give suggestions or advice regarding all kinds of things in the area. The house is well maintained and was perfect for our family. Visiting the zoo, Sea World, Petco Park or the beach were easy. A short drive into the city or a few block walk to the beach. The extra thought and care Rowena puts in to sharing her home is unparalleled in any VRBO I've ever stayed in (which has been many over the last 14 years).

We had a great stay at this little beach house-perfect for our family of 4. Just as described and in a great neighborhood. Easy walk to the beach. Rowena called and texted before and during stay to assure all our needs were met.

An Oasis in San Diego
Where do I even begin...probably with the word WOW! My husband and I got married on a Saturday and arrived at Rowena's house the following Tuesday for some serious R and R. And what a perfect place to relax and unwind after the stresses (and also fun! but tiring fun) of planning a wedding. That house had literally EVERY thing I could have asked for. From board games, to coffee table books about surfing and beaches, to two lovely bathrooms (and two showers~ It was was amazing not to have to take turns showering after spending a whole day in the cold pacific ocean), to the most comfy beds, to lovely patios for reading, cozy couches for reading (we did a lot of reading) to a kitchen incredibly well stocked with everything we needed to prepare most of our own meals, to a garage full of bikes and boogie (and surf!) boards...We made use of so much in that garage (beach chairs! Umbrella! Boogie and surf boards!) and felt so grateful to not have to hunt down rentals. It truly was as if we lived in San Diego for those 6 nights. Rowena's lovely home had every thing we could have asked for and more. It was on a quiet street in a nice neighborhood, and an easy walking distance to a Thai restaurant, 7-11, cute stores, a coffee shop, and more. And easy driving distance to many amazing beaches, including the world famous La Jolla Cove. Do I recommend Rowena's house? Absolutely, and more! You will not be disappointed.

Wonderful Home and Geart Location
My husband and I were in California for 6 days and our stay in this house was wonderful. The owners had manuals and a map explaining where everything was for the home and where hospitals, restaurants, and points of interest were. We had no problem cooking for a party at our son’s apartment because the kitchen was well stocked with everything that we needed. It makes a difference when the owners of a house treat it like their own home and not just a business. We would definitely book this house again for any stay in San Diego. Thank you Yvette and Rowena for sharing your home with us, Tom and Margaret

Perfect spot for our family of four.
Rowena was an amazing host - very accommodating and reachable. The house was just the right size for our family. It was secure, safe and kid friendly. The beach accessories and supplies were helpful as we forgot a few things at home. Having two small children we felt comfortable in the house knowing our kids wouldn’t destroy the floor with their messes and of course sand. The location is great too - walking distance to the beach and restaurants. Just watch out - there are some bad drivers!!! At any rate, we loved our stay and are grateful we called this house our home for 8 days.

Loved this property and the attention from the owner's staff!
We had a wonderful time at this home. It is well stocked and comfortable. Yvette was very attentive and quickly answered any questions we had. The beach accessories were a bonus as we flew into town and did not have access to these items. Would definitely stay here again!

We enjoyed our stay in PB area. House was very comfortable and owner was quick to reply to request.
Owner is very nice and offered suggestions on public transportation from PB area to Zoo. A bit of a walk to beach but it was worth it as owner had a wagon to haul beach chairs, towels, boogie boards to beach. House was very comfortable for our party of 5. Grocery stores within walking distance. Felt like I knew owner a long time prior to stay. House had everything for beach, cooking & being comfortable. Although we didn’t use the bikes, it was nice to know she had them just in case. We hope to come back again, some day soon. Thank you.
