The owner was super friendly and quick with communications. This was our second time staying at the cottage and we plan on making it an annual stay!

Perfect home and location

My sister and niece came with me to visit my daughter and we had the best week. The location of the home made it easy to get to anything in San Diego. The neighborhood was so quiet and nice. And the house is just immaculate. I’d love staying there again on another trip.

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Convenient and safe, 10-15 mins from the ocean, whale watching, sailing, zoo, surf, downtown San Diego, and closer than that to the airport. Very clean. One restaurant within 5 mins turned out to be chef-owned. It provided with ease the best food of our week-long trip. Of note, however: this entire 20 x 20 block of down is right below the airport flight path so it does have flight noise even as the neighborhood is completely and wonderfully quiet otherwise. Owner was attentive and organized. This was so much better than a hotel room.

Perfect stay!

My husband and I traveled to San Diego for our son's wedding, which was a wonderful 5-day affair. This two bedroom cottage was great in every way—well equipped kitchen, private patio and outdoor shower (which we partook of every morning, quiet neighborhood, easy parking, and relatively close to all points we went to. We had a question or two the first night which Steve responded and attended to very quickly. We were very happy with our stay!

Comfortable and clean quaint house with wonderful outdoor space

This was a delightful home with all you need - clean, well stocked, light and airy home. Nice night nor hood close to many restaurants, airport, downtown, Ocean Beach, etc! Beds were very comfortable and Wi-Fi was good! Since it is located in Pt Loma, you hear the planes taking off but earplugs at night solved this if you are sensitive! We would rerun in a heartbeat. Owner was very responsive and helpful with suggestions!

Excellent property and service

We had a fantastic stay at this property. The house surpassed our expectations - everything was spotlessly clean and the kitchen had everything we could possibly need for our stay. The area felt really safe, we had no problems with parking and we appreciated all the property owners recommendations for areas to visit and eat. We would highly recommend this property.

Girl’s Getaway

My sister and I enjoyed four nights at this wonderful house. The bedding, towels, and kitchenware were top notch. Every room was cozy with large sliding doors and windows that let in cool breezes and provided us views of the beautiful yards, both back and front. The house is close to everything. Check in and communication with the host was easy. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone wanting a lovely, convenient stay in San Diego.

Ocean Beach Tradition

We try to get to Ocean Beach once a year for some family time. Enjoyed the house so much. Plenty of space, clean, and comfortable. Kitchen had what we needed to cook. Able to watch sports on the big tv in the living room. Super close to the beach where all the action is. Street parking was very easy. Thank you for everything!
