2 BED/1 BA Coastal Haven in SD

DuyRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
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!

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.

Summer at Safari Bay Hideaway-pet friendly yard!

Stephen Richard CraigRating, 5 stars2 months ago
If you have a pet, expect a few extra hundred bucks. Also, the garage is pretty small if you drive anything bigger than a small sedan. Otherwise, great location and nice look. Theme was cute and very comfortable space.

Charming Cottage: Parking, Bikes & Walk to Sand!

RiisaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
This was hands down the best air Bnb we’ve ever stayed at and we’ve been all over the world. From check in to check out Stephanie answered texts within minutes. This place is walking distance to the bay, the ocean, and most importantly for our kids- Belmont Park. There were two parking spaces!! (The garage is made for a little car) two spaces is unheard of in this area!! We grilled in the beautiful front yard while the kids played with games Stephanie provided. We will be back someday!!

Ocean Beach ~ Your dream vacation!

AshleyRating, 5 stars1 week ago
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.

Canyon Views w/ Outdoor Seating & Parking

ClintRating, 5 stars2 days ago
I had an exceptional stay at Lach's beautifully maintained home in San Diego. The bright living room, fully stocked kitchen, and outdoor seating area with canyon views made it a perfect retreat. The self-check-in process was smooth, and the reserved parking spot was convenient. Lach's communication was prompt and efficient. Highly recommend!

2 Bedroom Beach Cottage - Literally Steps to Sand

NancyRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We had a wonderful stay. We loved being a very short walk from the beach and only 15 minutes to the airport. The house was well-equipped and very clean. We appreciated having sufficient linens, beach accessories, and kitchen appliances, dishes and cookware. The kids loved the games and the boogie boards. The private patio and front deck were great spaces to dine and relax. The owner was very responsive and responded immediately to our messages. Next time, we will stay longer to explore the shops and restaurants nearby.

NEW Private PB Modern Cottage w/ Large Wood Deck

BrianRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Erica's place was a 10/10 and we will definitely be back. The location is perfect, close walking distance to the beach and all the restaurants/bars, but a quieter, more residential part of PB. The place is a new build and we appreciated the quality of the design, the fixtures and the furnishings - the owners have a great attention to detail. A parking spot is included, which is also not typical of the area. Erica and her team were always very responsive and made it a great stay.

New Whale Cottage Amazing Ocean Views

KatieRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We had an AMAZING stay at Anna's in Ocean Beach. You can tell great care & attention to detail went into putting this home together. It is exactly like the photos (maybe even better) & the view is spectacular! I could have sat on the couch with the huge sliding door open & read a good book all day! The view was so amazing we elected not to eat out & instead cooked our breakfast & dinners in the kitchen, taking in the view while dining. Kitchen was well stocked with all the cooking tools you will need. A note to those who are sensitive to noises. OB is on the flight path of San Diego International & planes take off directly overhead. Good news - planes can't take off after 11:30 PM & can't resume until 6:30 AM, so you'll slumber well. If you keep the doors & windows shut, I'm sure you'd be fine, but we LOVED keeping the doors & windows open to enjoy the ocean breezes & honestly, after a while, you don't hear it anymore. Thanks for a wonderful stay Anna! We will definitely stay again.

Happy Tides: Charming Cottage | Walk to Ocean/Bay

MorganRating, 5 stars2 months ago
The beach cottage was perfect for a long weekend getaway with our young kids. Tons of toys and a great fenced in patio to play. The front of the house faces a path and we loved not having to deal with any traffic. We were in between the beach and the bay and could still hear the waves. There was a fantastic playground a short walk away. The hosts were fantastic too!

La Jolla Bird Rock Beach Cottage Studio

AlyssaRating, 5 stars6 days ago
I had a great stay at Karen’s place in La Jolla! I was recovering from surgery and she was incredibly accommodating, even letting me check in a little early, which made a huge difference. She was super responsive throughout my stay. The space itself was spotless, cozy, and felt really comfortable—perfect for resting and healing. The instructions for getting in were crystal clear, the TV worked great, and everything was just easy and stress-free. Highly recommend!
