    Light and bright charming cozy cottage on a quiet street very close to the beach and just blocks from lots of restaurants and shops. Easy communication with the host. Usually able to find parking on the street. If not, there is a garage provided. Check the measurements ahead of time to see if your car fits.

    Ocean Beach is a wonderful area to stay in. The cottage was charming and Katrina was very responsive when we had questions. I would stay here again in a New York minute :-) The only caveat is that Ocean Beach is in the direct flight path of San Diego airport to just be prepared for flights overhead. We were not bothered by this at all but others might be.

    Very whimsical upstairs bungalow close to the beach. Very walkable, safe area. You are in direct flight path for flight takeoffs from SAN, but other than that, we enjoyed our stay.

    Awesome location. Less than 5 minute walk to beach and to community of Ocean Beach. Tons of character-- loved the covered patio. Made it perfect for our family of 3. Very clean. Only issue was some confusion about how to get into garage. Resolved quickly. All other check-in instructions were very clear and detailed.

    Cute, clean and comfortable. Easy to walk to restaurants and beach. Parking on the street worked better for us since the garage is a block or two away. Sometimes the street parking is a little hard to find a close spot, so once we did use the garage. Unloading in the alley behind the unit worked out. Read the directions about how to find the place and it makes sense. Host communicates well!

    Loved the location.Short walk to the beach. Many restaurants nearby. Host very responsive. Do need to note this area is in direct airplane path from 6:30 am - 11:30 pm. But no overnight flights so that is good. There were plenty of towels. Bed was comfortable. Very cute place.

    We LOVED this place! Cold A/C, new appliances, comfortable mattress, nice big TV, and only a 5-min. walk to Dog Beach. After a day at the beach, it was great to return to our cozy little home. Oh, BTW, it was fully equipped with beach necessities: wagon, umbrella, boogie board, etc. and even a washer and dryer for our wet, sandy clothes. Highly recommended!

    Super cute unit with everything you need. Great location with good food close by. We were able to get street parking for part of our stay so only used the private parking a few times. The private spot is not for those who have never done tight, atypical city parking. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and the privacy this unit had to offer.

    I’ll touch on some things not usually mentioned in these reviews besides location, cleanliness, blah, blah, blah.- We brought a hidden camera finder, and the coast was clear… not to mention, the nearby Coast was clear of any drama (huge beach!)- the provided DirecTV was excellent… There are even several movies, etal. saved on the DVR that can entertain while relaxing- Infrequent Airplanes can be noisy in the A.M… but we used a Bluetooth Speaker and went to iPhone - Settings - Accessibility - Audio & Video - Background Sounds — and blasted Rain Sounds — We slept VERY well.- If you have a vehicle longer than a standard 4-door Sedan, the garage will not be accommodating… but depending on the season, street parking might be available a block or two away. (it IS an excellent tourist location, so what do you expect?)

    I was looking for a weekend getaway and we found this wonderful listing that fit our bill.The location was just what we wanted, quiet but plenty to do, plenty of restaurant options, and dog friendly. The stay was as advertised and between the other listings in this location I was glad we picked this one, as it had a nice outdoor balcony area that we were able to enjoy and feel the beach air, and was bit more setback than the other accommodations so it felt more private. Ocean Beach was absolutely delightful and I would come back in a heartbeat. We parked our car once for our stay and just walk around Voltaire and Newport street for some shopping, eating, drinking, and beaching (though we came during an overcast weekend). The people of Ocean Beach were fantastic and made me feel at home- I would highly recommend visiting.

    The apartment provided a fun, comfortable & convenient place for our stay in Ocean Beach. Perhaps one of the most comfortable beds ever. Well-equipped kitchen. Nice beach chairs & beach towels for our use. Just blocks from the beach & restaurants. Funky decor with great seating options. Although it was too chilly to enjoy the outdoor sitting area, it would provide a nice place to read and eat. We’ve already booked for our next visit.

    My husband and I loved this whimsical cottage. It was our first time to Ocean Beach and the location was super- just two blocks to the beach. The cottage was very comfortable and had everything we needed. Communication with Katrina was easy. She responded immediately by phone when we had a question and was very helpful. We would stay here again and would recommend this sweet cottage to others.

    I live locally and booked this spot for my parents who were visiting, and they had a wonderful experience. Huge bonus that there’s a king size bed, which they prefer. They were very comfortable with all of the amenities, and they especially appreciated the big private porch.
