We had a wonderful stay and couldn’t have asked for a better beach getaway. The property was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, with everything we needed to relax and enjoy our vacation. The location was fantastic since it’s just a short walk to the beach, making it easy to catch beautiful sunrises and spend plenty of time by the ocean.The host was friendly, responsive, and made the entire experience seamless from check-in to check-out. We truly felt at home and appreciated all the thoughtful touches throughout our stay. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a relaxing beach escape!

We enjoyed our stay loved the location, the tide pools and how comfortable the bed was. The casita was a bit small and the driveway was a pretty tight fit which was stressful but other than that we would definitely recommend!

This Casita was perfect for our time in San Diego! It was larger than I expected and perfect for mw my daughter and grandson! It would comfortably fit a couple with two kiddos! It was walking distance to everything. Was a little bummed the pier was closed and has been for over a year and expected to be for several more year but we still enjoyed every minute!

Great get away!

The property at Ocean Beach was clean, well stocked with all that we needed and the host was very responsive and helpful. The location was perfect for enjoying much of the sights and activities that San Diego offers. We enjoyed being able to walk to Ocean Beach and restaurants nearby. The neighborhood was quiet and safe and the casita was the perfect set up and size for our family of 3!
