D27 NCV - Ground level Oceanfront Cottage
We have stayed in this community many MANY times. I will say this.... You can't beat the location! The views and accessability to the beach, pool, parking was phenomenal! The beach toys and extra fans were great! The artwork in the unit was awesome and the owners brought a new table for the patio that was really nice! On the other hand.... this not the most updated condo, not the best equipt kitchen, and not the comfiest beds we have ever had in this community. For the extra money we would likely choose another unit next time.

Prime location in La Jolla Cove
This location is by far my favorite during my many visits to SD. Cutest cottage with the perfect location. Walkable to some amazing coffee shops and to the beach! Although the street has a lot of foot traffic, the cottage was very peaceful. It was never noisy and parking was never an issue for myself and guests that visited. Kristine and Clint were very responsive and gave simple instructions for us. This is a great place to relax and unplug! Thank you for an amazing time!

The Avocado Hut- Private Guesthouse, HOT TUB!
Really enjoyed our stay. Lovely neighborhood. ( neighbor cut me one of her roses)Easy to get around. Ocean Beach so close. I would like to recommend that some safety bars placed in the shower. It was slippery Also, microwave was difficult to get at on top of the fridge for us short er folks. But the stay was wonderful. Would recommend it to others!

Crown Point Gem with Salt Water Pool
This place is incredible! The beds are so comfy, the location is ideal to the bay and an area restaurants etc! The outdoor space is lovely. And the pool and hot tub are awesome! We did not want to leave! Aurrora is a wonderful host too. You can’t go wrong with this place!

Dragonfly Cottage - In the Heart of San Diego
Lovely place to stay at. It felt like you were at home. It was very peaceful and clean. It was easy to find and street parking was not hard to find. Would love to come back and try the jacuzzi.

2 BED/1 BA Coastal Haven in SD
A true coastal haven indeed! This place was the perfect weekend getaway! Just a short walk to the beach with tons of great shops and cafes nearby—everything in Ocean Beach is so accessible. Having overnight parking made it easy to explore more of San Diego, from paddle boarding in the bay with super convenient gear rentals to quick trips to SeaWorld and downtown for the nightlife. The house had everything we needed for a relaxing stay with friends. The spa was a highlight—clean, cozy, and perfect for winding down after a full day. Plus, our pup loved the private patio with a pet relief area and had a blast at the nearby dog park and dog beach. Highly recommend for couples, families, or friends looking to enjoy the beach life with all the comforts of home. We’d absolutely come back—and don’t miss grabbing some Hoagies while you’re here!

Beachfront Bliss: Sunset paradise from jacuzzi!
We loved our stay here, the location was perfect and there were so many extra beach items for us to use. It’s a cute, cozy and safe home in walking distance to so many great places. Andrea and Larry were great, we would love to come stay again sometime!

2BR Carlsbad Home Near Beach w/Shared Pool & Spa
This house was adorable, clean and in a great location. If it’s going to be hot while you stay, the house does get very warm in the late afternoon and takes a while to cool back down when the sun goes down. Kitchen was well stocked for cooking. There were plenty of beach towels and extra towels. We had a great experience and would stay again given the opportunity.

LOFT: Detached Cottage with Patio
My wife and I enjoyed staying in “The Loft” guesthouse. It was clean, cheerful and located in a quiet neighborhood. The host is friendly and responded quickly to questions. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom is large and well stocked with towels and washcloths. The guesthouse was located close to shopping, restaurants, and major San Diego attractions. The kitchen had everything we needed. We recommend The Loft for your stay in San Diego.

Writers' Cottage - AC,Pets OK, Close to everything
Amazing place to stay. Very safe and nice neighborhood to walk around. Perfect for dogs, fully enclosed and safe to leave outside. We could walk to the beach with the dogs from the air bnb. 5-10 min drive from everything in Oceanside. We will definitely return!

Family and Pet Friendly Beach Bungalow
We had an amazing stay at Russell’s house. He was very prompt in addressing our queries related to the house. The house was clean, cozy and comfortable. Highly recommend!

Cozy 1br Cottage in Trendy South Park
This is our second stay at this cottage. And we will definitely stay here again and again. The cottage is very nicely furnished, the kitchen contents are complete and (most importantly) the bed is very comfortable! There is a very nice outdoors area with seating and San Diego weather is almost always perfect to take advantage of that. An added bonus is that our daughter lives close enough to walk! Devon is so easy to reach and very responsive to questions. I highly recommend this property!

Peaceful & Cheerful 3bd in Sunny Pacific Beach, CA
Perfect spot for our needs. Comfortable beds, quiet neighborhood, and had everything we needed! We would love to stay again.

Charming coastal cottage Dogs free, 3 blocks ocean
We loved our stay at Atalanta’s place! Very walkable neighborhood with lots to do nearby, the beach only a few blocks down, and very comfortable place to stay after a long day! Very accommodating and our dogs were very comfortable as well!

Ocean Beach ~ Your dream vacation!
We had a great time in Ocean Beach, his place is super close to the beach and all kinds of restaurants and target. it is not loud at all at night time. the guy next door at the cycle shop is nice. I felt safe being there with my kids. I read reviews so brought my own toaster, no big deal. Smelled and felt clean. my kids liked the pull out couch. The only suggestion I would make for the owner is clean up the outside area where we park it's realy dumpy looking. But will definitely stay again.

Stylish beach cottage
Exactly as advertised. PB is a lively area and being less than a block from the beach/boardwalk was perfect.
Private cottage rentals

Private Cottage near Balboa Park
Great stay in north park. Easy to get around from here. Has all the basics needed for a stay!

Bay Cottage, 0.1mi to Beach, 5.5mi to Airport
Sandra’s place in Mission Beach was great! Our family of 4 stayed there 5 nights and loved it. The bay and the beach are both steps away. There are tons of great places to eat within walking distance too. Sandra was really kind and responsive, made a great stay for us!

Quaint Cottage Heart of North Park, Location A+!
Excellent stay, highly recommend! John’s place was larger than anticipated, clean, with a private entrance and so quiet! Thoughtful touches including an iron (which we needed to use) plus drinks and snacks were all wonderful to find! We would stay here again!

Point Loma Beachy Cottage
I stay at air bnb’s about every other month and Robert’s place is by far the best! Fridge was stocked with sodas and water, snacks galore on the counter. Robert even delivered pastries, which were amazing, on Sunday. I will certainly try and book this place for my next trip! Thank you Robert you definitely are the super host!

Charming Encinitas Beach Cottage- ocean views!
This was our second trip back to Lauri’s in Encinitas. The cottage was perfect for our family of four and provides absolutely beautiful panoramic views and ocean breezes! We love how easy it is to walk down the hill into town - so many shops, restaurants and nightlife options to choose from, and the beach is right around the corner. There is no doubt we would stay here again during a future visit!

The Crow's Nest Studio - walk to beach and town
The Crows Nest met all my expectations and then some. The condo had everything we could ever need for a short trip, and the location was ideal. We were only in town for the weekend for a friend's wedding, but I will absolutely save Alicia's place for future trips.

Charming cottage near Sunset Cliffs
We had a fantastic time at Debbie’s place. The house was cozy and comfortably fit the four of us. Debbie was responsive when we needed anything and the property was very close to a lot of the attractions. Would happily come again!

Cozy Cottage - Great for Small Families Walk Beach
I found this place after an extensive search for a reasonably priced rental that was near the water and also accommodating to my party of 3. The cottage itself is quite nice and very clean, with comfortable furnishings, and a great location. Ken and Bri are very gracious hosts, communicating with them was very easy and they made sure my daughters and I were comfortable throughout our short, but wonderful stay. I think this is one of the most pleasant AirBNB stays I have had over the years. Definitely going to keep this one for future rentals!
