Beach & Dining 2 Blocks ☆ Ocean Beach ☆ SD ☆ Yard ☆ Dogs OK

Great host response to any needs of ours!

Great house for our family and 2 dogs. We loved sitting outside on the patio. Would love to have had a dining table outside but we managed with the coffee table and side tables available. About a 20 minute walk to the beach we used the wagons and beach chairs they were a great amenity. Had to go buy beach towels but no biggie Target is a 10 min walk away. Overall would stay here again it was great for our family and dogs.

Stayed at this OB gem with a few other couples and used it as a home base for a local wedding. The property had two separate living rooms, so we could escape if we needed our own time. Beds were comfortable and the property had everything we needed. It’s set up to originally be two different rentals, so there’s two small kitchen. We used one kitchen to store drinks for everyone and the other for our main cooking area. The property had a large backyard with tons of seating and cute patio lights. We had an amazing barbecue and the owner was fine with us having extra people over for a gathering. That night was the most fun. We were also in the heart of OB and every morning tried a different quaint coffee shop. I LOVED our time at the rental and would absolutely stay there again.

Great location! The house was great for us.

This listing is as described & the location is excellent! As a native to SD, OB is OG San Diego vibes. Very friendly, laid back, funky, fun, and a bit gritty, which we love. The owner was responsive & professional. Accommodates a family of 4 nicely with separate chill spaces for kids & adults. The mattresses are not comfy (esp for couple) and should be replaced. The property is 2 units separated by a door which can be left open for access to each unit. The kitchen(s) are small with no formal dining area. The cleanliness of the listing is a 2-3 star and we bought some cleaning supplies because the listing had none. Definitely evident that dogs are allowed and seems that prior visitors were not very respectful making sure their pets went outside to potty (lots of rug spots & our dogs were on a sniffing rampage constantly). We’ve stayed in other dog friendly places & haven’t experienced this level of “ick factor”. The washer/dryer is a one stop shop combo and seems ventless so, the “drying” of clothes resulted in…not so dry. The decor was beach boho but, overall, the inside & out provided way too much: furniture (and the cushioned furniture outside was unkempt), cookware & wine glasses were endless and disorganized; only a handful of actual cups & not a substantial quantity of dishware. As for coffee, there are many cute shops to grab some as the units only have K-cup & it’s not great coffee. Also, you’ll need to buy sugar unless you love Splenda. Will stay elsewhere next time.

This place has a good location near the beaches and shops and restaurants. OB is known for homeless, drug abuse and other things so be ready to encounter people trying to get in the property. We had people trying to enter through the back yard.This property is marked as a pet friendly but in fact it isn’t, that said you can go out and walk but no space or location for pet in the back yard.I gave a one star rating for cleanliness because the floors and rug are not in a good shape. Luckily we had plenty of blankets with us to use for our children when they sat and played in the living room. I realized how dirty the rugs are, after wiping some water off the rugs with a towel, it came black. All carpets and rugs need to be replaced.The mattress in the single bedroom upstairs is not suitable for sleeping, because the middle part drops in and makes a hole. The mattress needs to be replaced.There’s no proper kitchen or dining room. Instead there are two makeshift kitchens because the owner is renting this home as two separate spaces. Or used to do. We had a whole place to ourselves and still didn’t make sense and wasn’t comfortable.We got charged for replacing a towel hanger that collapsed. Whoever initially built that, didn’t use the proper anchors for mounting anything in the drywall. And the hanger was used for hair drier and towels so it was heavy for the three small anchors all next to each other that weakened the drywall.Pics don’t do justice. Don’t recommend.

The host was great at responding right away, very accommodating with our schedule coming from the east coast. Home was very well stocked for cooking, we ate out. Perfect walking distance to the main street where we met the rest of the family. Cozy little beach home, easy check in and access to property for coming and going. We had 6 in all.

Property was amazing and perfect for what we needed. Location was perfect and all the right amenities were provided. Absolutely would stay here again
