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!

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!

Loved the O.B. Casita!

Being back in Ocean Beach after 20 years with our boys was wonderful. The location was incredible, and the beach was just a block away! The hosts were super responsive and made check-in and out easy. It was great to have a dedicated parking spot, shopping, incredible restaurants, and entertainment just footsteps away. We look forward to returning to O.B. again and staying at the Casita in the future!

A+ Host / Property

Wonderful host and property. The entire process was very smooth. The location is right next to the beaches and Sunset Cliffs. It is within walking distance to mini marts and Krysp grocery store. The property had a very private back yard/deck with a couple of chairs to sit outside and enjoy the nice weather. You can spend a whole vacation just walking around Ocean Beach and enjoying the sights and restaurants. I highly recommend this rental.

Perfect Location!

We absolutely LOVED the location of this property! It's just a 1/2 block walk to explore the Ocean Beach tide pools, and a short walk to the beach, shops, restaurants and bars. It's far enough away from the hustle and bustle that it's quiet and feels residential, yet anything you need is easily walkable by young and old alike. Our host Dora was a wonderful communicator and helpful. The casita is supplied with a the basics and more. We had a great week here and highly recommend!

Awesome stay, host and location

We are very happy with our experience. Dora was very responsive and helpful. Checkin and checkout was easy and flexible. Lots of towels, boogie boards, beach chairs and sand toys to use. Washer and dryer was very convenient. Two minute walk to a great little beach and 5 to 10 minute walk to restaurants, shops, groceries, main beach and pier. Very helpful to have a dedicated parking spot. Definitely hope to stay there again.
