This was a great place to stay for myself, husband and 9 yr old. Excellent location to quickly go to the beach(with public bathrooms), good walking distance to shops and restaurants. 15 minutes to get to Seaworld , 20-25 minutes to Gaslamp quarter or SeaPort Village and a little less than an hour to Legoland. Nice outdoor patio. It’s a connected bungalow, so you could rent both for two families to stay. Garage was great since parking in OB is hard to find, my Camry fit it, but nothing bigger would. We will definitely stay here again. Only con of the location is plane noise first thing in the mornings (if you sit out side in the mornings like we always did), but it only lasts about an hour or so.

Myself, Wife and Son loved the property. The location is amazing, small cozy, loved the yard. Great place! We will be staying here again next year.

Well kept place to stay and the owners were very easy to work with. Loved the price for being so close to beach. The home had everything I needed for my stay.

Relaxing, comforting, great location to Beach!

AM & PM walks on beach were delightful. OB is a friendly, walkable community. Coffee shops, People’s Outpost, restaurants, yoga all an easy walk. Kitchen setup / supplied so cooking meals is easy.

I will stay here everytime from now on. This location was perfect and we had the most amazing experience and we will be back again if you will have us.

Bongalow had everything we needed, just minutes from the beach. Looking forward to coming back soon.

Excellent location, cute and convenient. Love being able to walk around to nearby stores and restaurants. Beach access is wonderfully close.

We met up with other family members who were visiting in San Diego and booked this unit because it was nearby where they were. We really enjoyed the neighborhood and the close proximity to everything. We walked a lot and always felt safe and there are tons of good restaurants within walking distance. The outdoor space at the unit is amazing and it is within steps of the beach. It also has a garage which is a huge plus

The location was right next to the beach! Rental had everything we needed to be comfortable.

I’m not going to be the person complaining that my beach rental looked a little sun bleached, but this place def had some wear and tear, and is ready for another coat of paint. The location is fabulous- halfway between Newport (bars/shopping/food) and “dog” (the dog beach) in a very walkable community. The house had many beach accessories and amenities, alongside a gorgeous, lush yard. My concerns are over the front gate, which we were given a code for, but it is actually a cheap (kind of broken) plastic door. The lock on the door was electrical taped open, so it only needed to be pushed to open, which kind of took away the security purpose of the fence having a code. Also, the code for the actual entrance to our unit could be very easily be guessed, and the door off the kitchen didn’t lock/unlock that well, if at all. There were also some beach towels missing from the linen cabinet, but that’s a nitpick for sure. If you’re complaining about airplane noise, you probably have never been to San Diego, and the airport has an 11:30 pm curfew so it’s really nothing to freak out over. Aside from the security concerns with the gate/doors, my cousin and I had a great time at BBB and would honestly stay here again.

I enjoyed the proximity on the beach and the relaxing property, but there was one thing I could do without. It was difficult to get a good nights rest as the airport is just a few miles away and the house is in a direct flight path. Even though it’s been mentioned before, it should be noted that if you’re a light sleeper it would be very difficult to get a good nights rest.

The Pros are it is a great location. Close to the beach. We really enjoyed watching the volley ball players and a short walk to dog beach. It is always lovely watching the dogs run free on the beach and in the water but beware of the poop around town. The unit itself met all of our needs. Bedroom is very tight but my husband is a bigger guy. It had a great backyard where we were able to. sit around the fire at night. All resturant's and entertainment are within walking distance. It comes with a garage which is always a plus at the beach. Now with the con's..........You are right under the flight path so the 6:30am flights are your wake up call. There are QUITE a few homeless everywhere. We were never bothered but did not expect it.. . The first day the stopper in the tub was broken. My husband went and. replaced it. We had a SERIOUS issue with the water heater leaking with left us with NO hot water for 3 days. Owner came out to look at. it but that was it. It would have been nice to at least been offered some form of compensation or a bottle of wine for the MAJOR inconvenience it caused us, Customer. Service always helps.

We wanted to visit our daughter who lives in OB. She is in a small apartment and did not want to put her out, so we looked for a small place. We found Laurie and Ian’s place and booked immediately!!! It was perfect!!! Very short walk to the beach, to an awesome coffee shop and to our daughter - absolutely perfect!!! We were in the go quite a bit, but did take the time to have a nice dinner out in the back yard that is tree covered and an oasis in an oasis!!!!! We will return!!!!!!

My husband and I had a wonderful stay at the Brighton Beach Bungalows. It was cozy, private and secure, well stocked and had everything we needed for the beach. It's location is literally only steps to the beach but be aware, it is directly in the flight path of the airport. If you're at the beach and listening to the waves, you'll hardly notice it. LOL.

My friends and I stayed here for a long weekend and had a great experience top-to-bottom! Laurie was very easy to get in touch with and really helpful (and patient with us when we had an issue with check-in). The location is a five minute walk from a vibrant neighborhood with coffee shops, restaurants, and bars, and is less than a block from the beach. Having a garage spot was particularly helpful - parking in this area is tough, so it was great to not have to worry about that. The place itself was very comfortable (great shower, plenty of space, outdoor seating) and we got a big kick out of the available VHS collection, enjoying a movie night in! Grateful for an easy and all around delightful stay.

This was a great location to be- just a few steps from the beach. The host was awesome and the unit very clean. It is a bit tight and I think having 4 adults would have been just too much. The unit also shares a bedroom and bathroom wall with the other unit on the property- sound travels so if you are a light sleeper bring earplugs in case the neighbors are loud people like ours were:) Overall great experience!

We’ve stayed here several times and it’s just right for our needs. Weather wasn’t very “beachy” this time but the outside table and sitting areas were great to enjoy catching up. Heads up- the tree in the backyard is full of bees doing their job pollinating. They didn’t bother us once but if someone is allergic have an epi handy just in case.

We had a wonderful week in Ocean Beach. We did have one issue with the house not being cleaned when we checked in but the owner stepped up immediately and had the issue resolved quickly while we walked around and familiarized ourselves the location. The house was quaint and welcoming and the location was perfect! A short walk to ocean or great food! The farmers market on Wednesday was great and must see. Thank you so much for letting us call your bungalow our home for the week.

Property location can’t be beat. Not only steps from beach but also good eats and convenience right around the corner. Also awesome that it has its own parking spot. However, the property needs a thorough cleaning. Floors were filthy. Need to be swept and cleaned with soap and water. Towels need to be replaced. Bed needs a mattress topper that is firm. Had lots of body aches from sleeping in bed. Can’t sit comfortably outside. Trees full of bugs and spider webs, porch needs to be swept and power washed. Very dusty in the air inside. Also no toilet paper or paper towels provided. I wouldn’t recommend without a serious cleaning.

Unbelievably close to the beach, great amenities for beach use.

What an easy walk to a beautiful beach! Enjoyed our stay at this cute bungalow. Really appreciated the garage for parking as well. Owners are super nice and are easy to communicate with!! Thank you!!

Enjoyed the space very much close to beach and the dog beach i loved go to watch the dogs play. Very comfortable and felt safe

Great location for the beach. Almost everything is in walking distance. Very nice owners. We have stayed here before this trip and WILL return for a longer stay!

We had a wonderful time staying at Brighton Beaxh Bungalow. It was a nice place inside and out in the “jungle”. Which has a firepot, couches and chairs. It was the shade when we got too hot. I spent a lot of time at the table on the patio. The proximity to the beach was amazing! Laurie and Ian are excellent people. We loved interacting with them.

loved the privacy and the ability to walk everywhere

Appreciate the timely information.

Prefect for the 4-day long weekend. Beach was close. Kitchen made it relaxing. Property was charming. Planes start taking off early and noisily, but we got back to sleep just fine. It was an easy stroll to the pier and a lunch spot. Highly recommend.

Wonderful location, a few minor issues, but property owners responded quickly. Beach towels and chairs readily available, a pleasant, restful trip. Would definitely rent again.

The property is very clean and well equipped. Only steps from Ocean Beach. Communication with Laurie was great.

This was our second time staying at Laurie's bungalow. What's not to love? Plenty of space, comfortable bed, lots of hot water and towels, nice kitchen, private outdoor space, responsive hosts and plenty of privacy. Great location a few houses down from the beach, walking distance to restaurants and bars, but away from noisy Newport. Great for a couple looking for fun and romance. We'll be back!
