Winter break

We all had a great time. The space met all our needs. It was a quick drive to Seaworld and Legoland, kids loved it. We got to visit some great restaurants. More importantly the beach was at walking distance. The host was pleasant and helpful. Overall a great experience.

Amazing location and perfect amenities!

This place exceeded our expectations. The location was perfect to access the beach, shops and restaurants. The condo was equipped with beach towels, chairs, body boards, dog toys and sand toys. We enjoyed reading our books on the back patio with a cup of coffee and the local nightlife. If we go to Ocean Beach again, we would love to stay here!

Nice place

Enjoyed our stay very much. Wish we could've lowered the ac below 72° though, as I am an extra hot person. Every time we'd come back the temp would be raised to 74-76°. Other than that, the stay was perfect.

Exceeded our expectations

I spent spring break with my family and we absolutely loved the property in Ocean Beach. It is only 1 block away from the ocean and a short walk to the great restaurants and bars of OB. The place had plenty of room for a family of 4 with updated flooring, furniture, appliances, and decor. It was very clean relaxing.

Location is amazing. A block away from the beach so kids click traverse back and forth without worry. Had all the amenities like gas stove outdoor space and towels and chairs for the beach. Downtown ocean beach wasn’t our style but if you turned right out of the unit a smaller little down town area with two great coffee shops (coffee cycles was our fave) and a good sandwich shoe, tacos, a brew house and pizza, close to freeway to go to Padres or anything else downtown. We brought Enough clothes so I didn’t have to do laundry as the unit doesn’t have a machine. Only downside was there is no parking attached to this unit and we have a large car so finding parking was a bit difficult at times. To unload and load we just had blinkers on while putting stuff in while parked in front of the unit. Overall it was great, couldn’t beat the location!

Very nice but noisy.

This place is very nice, comfortable and clean. Owner is responsive. My only negative about the place is the noise from airplanes flying overhead particularly in the morning. Starting at 6AM planes continually fly overhead every minute for several hours and they are quite noisy. If you are a heavy sleeper, this place is perfect, but I found it impossible to sleep after 6AM. 4 stars for the noise, otherwise 5 stars.

Not Quite

Parking in the area is a nightmare! The apartment (not bungalow per se) was small but nice. Lacked outlets throughout the home - likely due to age, but otherwise functional. Best part of the rental was the owner - very communicative before, during and after the stay - couldn’t have asked for better!

1st Timers to Ocean Beach

We make an annual trip to SoCal and try out all locations from Newport Beach and down the coast. This was our first time in Ocean Beach. The proximity to the beach, food, conscience store and shopping was perfect. No longer than a 7 min walk to anything. The residence was just as it was pictured. I like that it had beach chairs, boogie boards, an umbrella and beach toys. The manger was very accessible and helpful. The space was clean. The outdoor space was a good size and obscured from the street view for privacy. The only thing that was a bit of a challenge, and I was warned not only by other posts and the manager, was parking. Not terrible as everything is walkable so it wasn’t that big of a deal. Thank you Meiluen for your quick responses even though you were in Korea at the time of our trip! Would love to stay here again.

Check in was super simple. Apartment was clean, and user friendly. We had everything we needed. Target was super close & a one stop shop for food/drinks. Literally steps to the beach, restaurants, shopping etc. Easy to Uber downtown as we preferred not to drive. Took in a couple baseballs games, toured the USS Midway, and explored Gaslamp Quarter. We enjoyed having coffee on back patio which was a surprisingly quiet & private area! Bed was comfortable, and there was more than one roll of toilet paper :)
