About this house rental
Quaint cottage, literally ON the beach. Open the front door and step into the sand of Ocean Beach. The beach is HUGE and open in front of you.
The cottage has been freshly painted and decorated. It's the perfect place for a great time away. A QUEEN size bed in the bedroom and a TWO fold down FULL size sofa beds in the living room provide sleeping for 4 adults comfortably if there is one adult per sofa bed. You might be able to sleep a couple kids on each sofa bed, increasing the capacity to 6 in theory. There is also a twin size air bed in the closet for your use.
There is a window mounted air conditioning unit in the bedroom and a portable space heater just in case our (rare) 50 degree nights are too chilly for you.
A full size fridge and gas range will come in handy for any cooking or cooling you want to do. The kitchen has a microwave & a coffee maker as well. Outside the kitchen door is a nice size side yard accessible only to your unit in which you can BBQ or just relax without being in the public mix out on the sand.
The private garage is for your use alone and is the primary entrance to the property. There is a key code on the door and simply walk through the garage and through the side yard to enter through the side kitchen door OR you can go through the sand along the front of the cottage to enter through the front door.
There is a washer & dryer in the garage for your use. In the garage you will also find beach chairs, a small cooler & a beach umbrella which you can use during your stay.
In addition to the full sized shower in the bathroom, there is an outdoor shower in the side yard in case you want to take a quick rinse off before you head back inside.

Having your own garage to park in which opens to your own private yard, porch and bungalow was perfect. The OB Surf Lodge right around the corner has fantastic food and drinks as well. We will definitely stay here again. Ocean Beach has so many great places to eat and shop within walking distance. Sitting on the porch enjoying the surfers and all of the beach action was just what we needed.

The cottage is well-maintained and perfect for a family of 4. We stayed the week of the 4th of July and we had the best time. The cottage has garage parking, an outdoor shower, everything you would need for the beach (chairs, umbrellas, etc) and an amazing view. We're going to make it our annual place to stay.

A cute little place literally on the beach. Enjoyed opening the door hearing the waves. Every extra thing available to enjoy some beach time, chairs, blankets, towels, umbrellas,, cooler, toys. Owner directed us to an amazing farmers market walking distance from cottage that was amazing. Wish we had more time.

This property is in a great location right on the beach. The views are awesome and the location is great for exploring ocean beach. Communication with the property owners was great and they were accommodating to our early check in and even offered a later check out time. They also provided some great fruit and snacks for us. Definitely recommend this place for couples looking to stay on the beach in San Diego.

This property is amazing - if you are looking to be "on the beach" and have private parking, and have a patio, and have a huge picture window to look out in any weather, a volleyball tournament to watch almost nightly, and world class surfing within a 1 minute walk, that along with amazing restaurants within walking distance and a market for those 'oops' I forgot the ---- also within walking distance. Would have liked to stay a MONTH... and will return for sure! This is the vacation spot for those who love the beach and the ocean air!

Great location. One step from the beach , right out the front door. Central location to all the hot spots of San Diego , 30 minutes away from everything.. even accounting for the rough traffic at times. Private , secure parking. Great vacation for us.

The property and location was perfect for our family of 4, the kids could run out into the beach anytime and the house was well equipped with beach chairs, toys, etc. Communication with the owner and manager was great and we felt very supported during the rental process. We already booked another stay here!

Cute little cottage on the beach. Open the front door and your first step is in the sand. Excellent communication with the PM meant everything was perfect and all expectations were met. Parking in the garage was an amazing benefit. Will be returning to this place.

This cute, tiny house was an ideal home base for our family of four while visiting San Diego. The property is clean and comfortable. You step out the front door onto the beach - what a dream! The fold out couches are very comfortable.
The property manager was very attentive and provided a lot of great info about the house and the Ocean Beach neighborhood. Our girls enjoyed rolling down the sand mounds on the beach. I found the volleyball games out front very entertaining to watch. We all enjoyed spectacular sunsets and walks down the nearby pier.
The house is right under the SAN airport flight path, but this didn't really bother us. I noted ear plugs were provided in case this did bother someone. The OB neighborhood itself could be described as "gritty" which may be uncomfortable for some families.
Overall, we highly recommend this property.

What more can I say. Everything was great. From the cottage to communication. And of course the location is amazing!

This is truly the place to stay! The cottage is right on the beach and walking distance to Newport Avenue. We enjoyed the proximity to shops, markets and cafes. My wife went to nearby Sunset Cliffs and hiked and did a yoga class at sunset. Every evening at the cottage we watched the sunset and ate dinner on the patio. The people in the area were laid back, friendly and the overall vibe was welcoming and relaxing. We did not want to leave! Delia who cleans and cares for the house welcomed us and gave us some restaurant suggestions. She was so very kind. The cottage had everything we could ever need, was clean and comfortable. We did not want to leave this little place in paradise-truly THE place to stay. So, we will definitely be going back!

The house was awesome. The views are amazing. Loved walking out the door right on to the sand and beach. Such a peaceful property. Very happy with our entire ocean Beach experience. Thank you Abe for being a great and attentive host.

Staying in the cottage was better than any upscale hotel ever could be. Ocean sounds, breeze, amazing views, and located near so much. Abe was so quick to answer any questions and genuinely wanted us to enjoy our stay. Book it and soak up the experience of the cottage. It’s unique and we won’t ever forget it. (Hope to visit again)

Abe was an amazing host. From the moment of booking to check out. Any questions I had he answered quickly. House it cute but small. The backyard makes up for it especially with a little one.

Love this little cottage!
So relaxing! Was super close to sea world, and I enjoyed my mornings with my daughter walking the beach and finding crabs a sea shells! Can’t wait to plan another trip. Thank you guys so much!

Had a great time staying here. Loved stepping onto the sand as soon as you open the door. We enjoyed making s’mores over fire pit a couple of nights. Cottage was clean and we felt safe (which are two things that were important to me). Restaurants and shops are walking distance from cottage. I really liked that we could wash our clothes and not have to wash it until I returned home. Abe was a great host. He answered any questions I had and also made suggestions on what to do in the area. Delia was very helpful and friendly as well. We will definitely be returning in the future.

Weekend at the beach
My wife and I visit this area of San Diego every other year or so. Usually stay at Pacific Beach but thought we’d try something a little different. This is a quaint old cottage right on the beach. Reminded us of a rental we used to own. A lot of beach activity Saturday & Sunday, quieter earlier in the week. It’s a short walk to good food and groceries.

On the sand
What a gem! The house is literally on the sand which is such a treat in OB. Super clean and has everything you could need from beach chairs to a fire pit. The communication is above and beyond, thank you for everything!

WOW What a view!
Good things come in small packages, this cottage is located right on the beach, so you get a great view of the waves and activities all the time.
Sure it is smaller than other options, but the location, side yard, and deck space help to make up for that, and it is a short walk to food and fun.
