Spring Break

This unit is a block from the beach in an area where you can walk to restaurants, bars and shopping. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked. There are beach chairs, umbrellas and beach towels that were very handy to have to use.

Ocean Beach Getaway

Nice clean homebase for fun and sun around Ocean Beach and downtown San Diego. Apartment is 5 minute walk to the main drag of restaurants/bars and even closer walk to the beach. Had a comfortable bed and cozy living room. Parking can be hit or miss especially with the street sweeping but we never parked more than 5 minutes away for the extended weekend we were there. Good communications with property manager.

Great location and excellent home!

We spent 5 nights here and had a wonderful time. The location is amazing with beaches, restaurants, and shops all within walking distance. The hot spots of San Diego are all a short drive away. The house was very clean and exactly like the photos with a lot of “extras” to help you feel welcome and invited. I would definitely recommend this place and our wonderful host!

Lovely OB getaway

What a great unit! Clean, comfortable, bright, convenient, and close to everything you need. Truly just blocks from the beach, great restaurants, and multiple breweries/bars. The host was very accommodating and went above and beyond by stocking the unit with towels, beach supplies, and all those easily forgettable toiletry items. Definitely would stay here again!

Great stay!!

Meiluen was a great host, easy to contact, and quick to respond to all questions. The property is updated and in great shape. Kitchen and bathroom are fully stocked with everything you need. The aircon unit too a little bit to kick in and really cool down the apartment after a warm day, but all good. Very close to the beach, just a few short mins walk. Area was quiet and safe, too. Highly recommend staying here!

Great location, nicely furnished apartment

The apartment is very comfortable with updated furnishings, lots of towels, pillows, supplies. Nice location a few blocks from the beach and from OB’s restaurants and bars. The only concern was the bedrooms can get hot on a warm day and although the living room area is well air conditioned, the bedrooms stay warm into the evening. (Floor fans are provided). The owner is in touch from booking to arrival and during the stay.

Perfect Beach Vacay!

My family of 4, including 2 teenagers had a great stay at Meiluen’s apartment. Her communication was excellent! It’s 1 block from Ocean Beach and we walked everywhere. We brought our 2 little dogs as well and they enjoyed Dog Beach right next to OB and walking around town with us. The Farmer’s Market on Wednesday night was a lot of fun! The apartment was spotless and very nicely decorated. The a/c was nice in the living room and kitchen but the bedrooms did get a little warm in the afternoon. I would most definitely stay again if ever in the area and highly recommend!

Family stay at Ocean Beach

Property's was well decorated and furnished. Condition was immaculate. Parking will be a problem as it is street parking only. I was surprised at the large homeless population which may be seasonal? The homeless were predominantly at the beach front so I was content with this location being a block away from this problem. Overall this is a very nice property.

Amazing find!!

This property was perfect! The location was amazing. Seriously a block from the beach. The place itself was great as well. Everything we needed for amenities. The only downside, and not really more than slightly irritating is the street side parking. We had to park a bit away but like I said, nothing too bad. Street noise wasn’t an issue either, I was concerned being on the corner unit. The owner was fabulous, very communicative and helpful throughout offering location tips to make our stay better. Great place over all.

Short but Sweet

We were visiting our son in college for Parent Weekend. The house was in a perfect location to restaurants, beach, and his school. We enjoyed using the boogie boards, which were in great shape. The kitchen was well stocked. It's an older house, but it would be helpful to have more lighting. And lastly, we had returned from the beach and were putting things away and drying our towels when the owner sent me text about what we were doing. I know there are cameras, but it felt intrusive to have someone watch you and comment on your actions. Other than that, it was a pleasant stay.

Soft Beds, near the beach.

We enjoyed our stay in Ocean Beach. It was nice to have comfortable beds and a full kitchen to cook breakfast every morning. The only drawbacks, the ac didn't cool very well and we didn't feel comfortable leaving windows open while we were away. Also, my son has dog allergies, which I should've found a dog free rental. We got him some allergy meds and didn't have him sleeping on the couch. That drawback is on me. The owner did help accommodate us as our flight got changed. So, all and all a good vacation.
