About this house rental
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. ;)

The property could have been cleaner overall. There were no sheets for the pull out couch. We needed to use the fans, but not all of them worked and they were very dirty. I needed to dust and clean them before using them. The location was great and near to where family were staying.

I did not stay any nights at this property. I spent approximately 2 hours in the property. I paid for 5 nights in advance based on the description of the property. I ended up paying to stay at a hotel (additional $1500.00). It was my first visit to San DIego. The outside of the property appeared neglected and run down, as were the neighboring houses. The storm door was completely rusted over. There were multiple units facing each other (not facing the road). Upon entering the residence, it was very hot. The temperature reading on the thermostat was 94 degrees. The inside of the property was clean and as presented in the pictures, except much darker. I opened the windows and turned on a couple of fans. It remained very hot. I did not feel comfortable leaving the windows open through the night as they were all low and easily accessible by anyone. I did not feel safe. I did not feel comfortable. I notified the owner of the property and explained my situation. He did not respond for several hours but offered no remedies or solutions. I responded to the owner with greater explanation. He never responded. I have stayed at many VRBO properties over the past ten years. This was my worst experience with a property and the owner.

This location is awesome and a great "bro pad". Definitely suited best for a couple or single person who is wanting to explore Ocean Beach.
The accomodations for a third guest were not ideal so something to consider.
Believe them when they say the place is aged.
Cute décor, great location but could use some improvements (many of which I suggested for the next traveler(s).).
Although our last morning there wasn't ideal, the communication with the owner and the response to our concerns were addressed quickly.
Hopefully they took the feedback and put it to good use!

Everything we needed was available. The house was clean although some improvements could be made, but that aside, we would come back to this property.

We enjoyed our stay at the beach house! It is in a great location. The house is close to town with restaurants, stores, the beach, etc. Inside, the house is a bit dated, but for the price and location, it was well worth it. The owner was very responsive when we had questions and communicated with us throughout our stay as needed.

This was just perfect for our stay.
Can walk easily to get coffee, food, and explore the local scene.
Fun people watching at the beach and don’t forget to go to Sunset Cliffs at low tide.

Property as described. The queen bed was just not enough room to sleep comfortably as we have king size.
Decided to cook one evening as there were plenty of cooking and eating utensils provided, even oils and some spices in the cupboard. Coffee maker and filters worked fine. We brought our ground coffee. The afternoons from 3:00 to 6:00 pm heated up the unit. Better plan on activities outside during the time. Drew was helpful I recommending activities when we emailed him. He would email reply nimbly. Parking in rear use the lane way. When we arrived the street parking was full in front. That’s was a relief to find but not until we had to walk to make several trips to unpack our vehicle. Once we spent the entire day we made it work for us. Location down street lead straight to ocean about 5 short blocks. Easy walking distance to downtown Ocean Beach restaurants and shops. Sunsets were the end of the days treat. Weather in the 70. Beautiful. Great little find. Thanks Drew for being a gracious host.

This is a cute little bungalow. The size was great for our girls trip.
The only problem we encountered was that two out of the three fans were broken. Since we used the bedroom and the front room for sleeping, only one of us got a fan. The fan was helpful drowning out the all the planes overhead. It was pretty warm when we returned at the end of the day and a second fan would’ve been nice.
The designated parking in the back was awesome. Otherwise, I’m not sure how close we could’ve parked.
Other than the fans, our visit was great!

The property was amazing and perfect for a young couple. The front yard was tidy and room for kids to play if need be. The best part, in my opinion, was the location. Everything we needed and more was right there in short walking distance including the beach. Even walking late at night after dark, we felt safe in this neighborhood and would definitely recommend !

Perfect beach bungalow with a very San Diego vibe. Easy walk to the beach and restaurants. The water was shut off for a bit one day and the owner preemptively refunded us part of our stay. Can’t ask for more than that! Highly recommend!!

We were visiting the San Diego area during an unusual cold spell. The bungalow got a bit chilly with limited heat, but was still comfortable.
This cute bungalow was within walking distance to the hippie vibes of the OB restaurants and breweries. Close to all of the tourist spots- Sunset Cliffs, downtown, Sea World, Pacific Beach. A great place to stay.

Awesome place!
This bungalow worked perfectly for our family of 4. It is in an awesome location for walking around the Ocean beach area. It is very simple, but had everything we needed. We fell in love with the area and can't wait to come back.

Great getaway
Charming, affordable bungalow with all of the basics. An easy walk to Ocean Beach. Robb Field skatepark is super close which was an added bonus. We especially appreciated the parking in the alley, otherwise it would have been hard to find parking.

It was good, close to everything
Toilet was leaking from bottom, we had our Navy son with us, there was no bedding for the pull out futon, no pillows, sheets, comforter. There was also just one roll of Toilet paper.

Cute place in great location
Prior to check in, communication with management was quick and helpful. There were no issues during our stay. Very cute place but needs attending to. The mattress is old, there a some broken blinds and the fans are really old, dirty and damaged.
It was VERY hot in the cottage when we got there at 4:00pm (Due to being one of the hottest days in OB and no AC unit) Thank God there were 3 mobile fans to use within the unit. It did cool down during our stay with windows open at night. The fans were a must, although dirt and lint come off them while in use.
We slept on the sofa bed the 2nd night because it is more firm and comfortable then the bedroom mattress. (A huge difference) The kitchen was the perfect size for just the 2 of us and enough space if 4 were staying.
Overall the location is great for anyone wanting to be in walking distance of OB. Lots of places to eat. Close driving distance to Sunset Cliffs, Mission or Pacific Beach, downtown San Diego etc.

When we arrived at the bungalow it was very hot and small. my young granddaughter could not breathe it showed 90 degrees in the house. We left and went to the beach for a short time then to eat and came back around 8:00 it felt like a fire in the place at this time it was 92 in there. We couldn't open windows because the screens were torn and felt it was not safe to keep them open. We packed our things and went to a hotel with air. I am not young so I know I could not have slept in that heat, I was hoping for 2 days refunded back to me but I didn't get an answer on that. Our other family that came out for my grandsons Marine Bootcamp graduation was refunded their full 3 days because of the heat and no air.
