OB is a vibrant, bohemian neighborhood with a fun SoCal beach vibe. You will be able to walk to great brewpubs and restaurants in just minutes. Stroll down Voltaire street and engage all your senses for all kinds of delights and sights. Our studio is located in one of the most desirable areas in Ocean beach. No matter what direction you head, you will find yourself immersed in the pulse and grove of OB. Located only 3 blocks from one of the most popular beaches in San Diego and the famous OB Pier. Short-Term Residential Occupancy License: STR-06950L

Stroll down to the beach, or mosey along popular Newport Ave. OB offers new breweries, fun restaurants, antique shops, surf shops, surfing, taquerias, and great sunsets.

Perfect for a romantic getaway or road trip destination!

There is no A/C but being so close to the beach, you get a great sea breeze, but just in case, there is a portable fan (stored in the closet).

Thoroughly cleaned and disinfected between stays and contact-free check-in.

No House sharing when you book our cottage! Enjoy a very large studio!

I had a great stay at Francesca’s place. The room was clean and had everything I need for a great week long stay for work. Close to tons of food options and a great market right across the street. A nice stroll to the beach which I visited at least twice a day. Quiet and just what I hoped for

Convenient stay for some beach time

Cute studio apartment was perfect for one or two people. It's an easy walk to the beach, many restaurants, coffee shops and stores. It's a little loud being in the airport flight path, but no problems at evening bedtime when there are few flights.

Property was neat and clean. It was not as close to the beach as expected. TV was difficult to operate and no local channels were available.

Lovely stay, short walk to the beach!

Greta location if you’re staying in OB for a weekend!! Right across the street for a food co op (amazing mango salsa there), and then only a 16 mins walk to the beach. Bunch of cute shops and coffee places along the street as you walk. And the beach that’s close is a DOG BEACH!!! So many cute dogs, it was fantastic.

Unsanitary, covered in dog hair

My girlfriend and I stayed here over for 3 nights. As soon as we walked in, we noticed dog hair and a dead ant on the bed. As we walked around, we realized our socks were covered in dog hair to the point we had to throw them away. There was no vacuum to clean the place up. I messaged the hosts twice on Vrbo and didn’t get a response. I then texted the contact on the second day and finally got a response stating they were sorry and would send over a cleaner. The cleaner came the next day and the place was still a mess. It was almost like they just organized and didn’t clean anything. I then messaged again about our stay on Vrbo and they replied with “”. Are you serious? Never coming back here again.

Cute cottage - parking can be a pain. Will say - 6am flight pattern is over head. Perfect place for 2 people. - Bed could use an update - body dent on my side - but my sisters side was good. Water pressure sucked in Shower - tough to get the sand out from everywhere Noodle place across the street 5- about a 6 block walk to beach. Would stay again.
