Mid-Century Modern 1BR/1BA Beach Apartment
A Perfect San Diego Coastal Getaway! I recently had the pleasure of staying at Carl's beach home in the Pacific/Mission Beach area, and it was nothing short of amazing! From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the charming beach cottage. The decor is super cute, combining cozy beach vibes with modern comforts, making it feel like a home away from home. The location couldn't be better! Just a short stroll from the beach, we enjoyed daily walks along the shore and stunning sunsets. The nearby restaurants and shops added to the convenience, making it easy to explore the local scene. Carl was an exceptional host, providing us with all the information we needed for a smooth stay. The cottage was clean, well-equipped, and had everything we needed for a relaxing vacation. If you're looking for a perfect beach getaway, I highly recommend Carl’s beach home. We can’t wait to return! Five stars all the way! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Beachfront Home, On Best Sandy Beach, 4 Br, Views
My girlfriends and I had an amazing weekend at Logan’s house! It was the ideal getaway for our annual Mother’s Day trip. The home was just as described and only steps from the beach. We adored the decor, especially the pink accents, and the beds were incredibly comfortable. We can’t wait to come back!

North Mission Beach w/AC, Parking, Ocean View Deck
This Airbnb has everything that you could possibly need and while it is a studio, it's actually roomy. There's a large, very comfortable king-size bed, but it doesn't feel like it takes up a lot of space. The couch is a pull-out bed as well, and it’s long enough to for somebody that's 5'6” or smaller to be able to sleep on it. The kitchen has everything you could possibly need including ice cube trays and a light underneath the microwave. So, it feels homey. There's a bar that has five chairs facing the strandway where you can see the glimpses of the ocean. There are plenty of plugs for gadgets. There's a closet that has all kinds of linens. Anything you could possibly need from extra blankets to extra pillows, extra towels. In the kids' room, there are bunk beds that are large enough for an adult to sleep on the bottom (5’6” or shorter). The bathroom is has nice lighting and a window that opens up the street. The patio outside has plenty of space for two to three people to sit.

Studio Oceanview King in Beachfront Apt (207)
Great stay at Marabella! The views were stunning from our room! Located right on the water, walking distance from many shops and restaurants. The patio was nice and grounds were well kept and clean. The beach chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards and outdoor shower was definitely appreciated. It was perfect!

Entire Beach Bungalow | Private Oasis West of 101
We initially planned to stay in Leucadia for a week but decided to extend our stay for a full second week because we loved this place so much. The location is absolutely perfect. We walked to the Beacons beach to surf every day and had our pick of all the best restaurants on the 101 (highly recommend Birdseye Kitchen). The house itself is cozy and surprisingly private for a place on the 101. It helped to have laundry on site and Chris was responsive throughout our visit. The house isn't as well stocked as a lot of air bnbs (no wine glasses, coffee, ice cube trays, etc.) but you will probably want to eat out most of your stay anyway because there are so many great places within walking distance. We definitely plan to come back and highly recommend this charming little nook in Leucadia! Excellent cost for value.

"THE REEF" HOUSE 1-Short Block to Ocean! NFLTicket
i loved it!! it was so much better than disneyland gradnite and cheaper than the tickets when we split it! so worth the money and so fun and beautiful!

Modern Oceanview Penthouse
The place was very clean, easy to find, and in a great location. Host was always proactive and gave clear instructions for check in and check out.

* - The Leucadia Beach Grotto - * An Encinitas Gem
We had a great time at the Leucadia beach grotto! Beautiful back yard and pool, lots of things to do locally. Jason had some great suggestions for a local restaurant and beach. House was extremely clean. Had everything we needed. Would definitely recommend.

Upscale condo with Rooftop Deck & Ocean View!
Had an amazing experience. The view from this location is incredible. The place was spacious, clean, and felt like home. The host met us at gate and was extremely friendly and helpful and recommended great places for us to do in the area. Just an amazing place to experience!!!!!!!

Beach Apartment near Oceanside Pier
Place was wonderful. Check in was ok. Directions was confusing around the place and map was not to helpful at all. Steven was great w/ communication.

Luxury on the Beach
We love the location and amenities at Paul’s place. Very quiet unit and lovely balcony overlooking the beautiful surroundings. A new hot tub opened by the pool during our stay which was wonderful!

Ocean Views from Patio on the Pacific!
Ms.Sandy provided a very welcoming AirBnB rental to relax and decompress in. From her initial inactions, she was extremely helpful with detailed instructions and helpful suggestions. As a bonus, the HOA also offered recommendations on places locally to dine at and entertainment. It’s the combination of these two that make for an enjoyable experience. Ms. Sandy’s place is clean and features 2 smart tvs for your entertainment pleasure. Just remember to log out of your streaming service before checking out. If you need a bit of fresh air, the beach is close by, along with the harbor with eateries and entertainment. Or just walk around the compound and enjoy the various water features and koi pond. For you golfers, bring your putter and enjoy the putting green. There’s also a swimming pool and gym, however the beach is just minutes away. You can definitely put your trust in Ms. Sandy for a very enjoyable experience.

Enchanted Ocean Sunsets
Such an amazing place! My husband and I have been meeting up with our friends for 6 years now and this is the first time a kid has joined us. My son loved the beach and it was so nice to be so close and to have our own space but to also be able to walk to restaurants and things around. Kiran was so kind and was able to answer any questions we had very quick. We’ve already talked about going again!!

Beautifully remodeled 10th floor oceanfront condo
Chris did a great job making sure we were able to enter and we were happy. The place was spotless, newly renovated with the latest designs and literally right on the beach and boardwalk with incredible views! I highly recommend the home and PB in general!!

A condo steps to the beach with all the amenities.
It was such a beautiful place and so fun to stay at. The balcony has beautiful views and it’s walking distance to the beach.

Jewel of La Jolla - Oceanfront
I recently had the pleasure of staying at this beautiful location, and I can’t say enough good things about it! The location was absolutely ideal. Nestled in a serene area yet close to local attractions, it made exploring effortless. The setup of the house was perfect. Every detail was thoughtfully arranged, making it easy to settle in and feel at home. The inside was pristine. It was spotless and well-maintained, which made our stay even more enjoyable. The accommodations exceeded our expectations! With ample space and comfortable furnishings, we felt like we were in a luxury retreat. The breathtaking views were the cherry on top. Waking up to such stunning scenery was a highlight of our trip. I cannot wait to rent here again in the Fall! Highly recommended!

Designer Beach Living | Steps from Blvd & Cafes
We had a fantastic stay at this Airbnb right on Mission Beach! The location couldn’t be better, just steps from the sand and perfect for a relaxing, chill vibe. The house was super clean, beautifully decorated, and very kid-friendly, which made it perfect for our family. The host, Evan was incredibly accommodating, even with some last-minute changes we had. He checked in to see if we needed anything and was always responsive and kind throughout our stay. We really appreciated the great communication and hospitality. Overall, we absolutely loved the experience and would definitely stay here again!

Ocean, Ocean, Ocean! Sunset Cliffs Spectacular!
My daughter and I spent time here in a girls trip. The condo was gorgeous inside and the view was incredible. It was so peaceful to listen to the waves crash as I fell asleep. We hope to be back!

1 Block to Beach, Dog Friendly, Oceanfront Patio!
Georgie’s airbnb is beautiful and in a great location in Ocean Beach. There’s plenty to do nearby and easy to walk to. We had some trouble sleeping due to noise from airplanes, but this has less to do with Georgie’s Airbnb specifically and more to do with the proximity to the airport.

Kellogg’s Beach Cozy Home
We stayed for 2 nights, and it was an enjoyable stay. The house is in a nice neighborhood, and it was fairly clean. It's an older house but has been kept up nicely.

Guesthouse - prime location next to BEACH!
We had a super time - the house is very clean with generous amenities and lots of towels. Very well Organised and a great location. Lauren our host was very responsive and made recommendations for local places to visit and eat.

B5118 House of the Waves
Casa de Las Olas is an absolute gem. It has nine skylights offering abundant light, views of the ocean so close you can see seals playing in the waves, and a sanctuary of home in an otherwise bustling coastal town. The location is phenomenal, along the coastal walk area of San Diego-La Jolla Underwater Park and Ecological Reserve, with equal distance to wildlife sightings, dining, art galleries, and shops. Additional highlights include dual shower heads, a fireplace to warm the cooler coastal evenings and mornings, elevated ceilings, and all the unique character of a renovated cottage. It is the perfect size and location for solo travelers such as myself.

New! Bayside Retreat in Mission Bay
We really enjoyed our stay! The location is beautiful and the rooftop deck felt like a bonus spot to relax.
