* Please note the 3 bedroom are all connected. From inside the home, you will go through the master bedroom to get to bedroom 3 (aka kids room with the trundle bed. Then bedroom 2 (back bedroom with queen bed) is connected to bedroom 3. All doors have a lock. Bedroom 3 (kids room) has its own private entry way from the back yard. Bedroom 2 (queen bedroom) has french doors that open out but we would not consider this as a private entry as you can only lock the door from the inside. This layout is common for homes built in the 1940's. Please contact us if you have any questions.

Guest Access:
The entire home is yours including the exclusive use of the outdoor patio adjoining the home (note, however, there is a separate guest house with its own space adjoining the backyard at the rear of the property; while the guest house is adjacent to the backyard it has its own separate parking and outdoor space...While the 2 are connected the spaces are in no way shared (other than the common area washer/dryer in the courtyard)).

You may also rent the entire property and host up to 8 guests across 2 separate spaces, please contact us if you are interested.

The Neighborhood:
OB is the hippest and most "neighborly" of San Diego's beach communities. There is nothing quite like the non-corporate lifestyle of Ocean Beach. The locals here love OB for its eclectic community that supports a range of wonderful small shops, restaurants, bars and coffee houses. You will find some of the best food, drink and shopping in the local area. Very walkable and close to the beach. All of OB is accessible on foot from this location. So enjoy and take it all in!

Getting Around:
Rental bikes and scooters are plentiful for rent by the hour/day/week. Uber/Lyft are very active in San Diego and the assigned parking guarantees that you will always have parking should you venture out into greater San Diego.

Other Things to Note:
Note that this is a "traditional" beach bungalow. What that means is that a premium is placed on outdoor space so the rooms are literally connected to one another. However, 1 of the 3 rooms has it own entry. ((the master off the main living area and the two back bedrooms have doors that lead directly to the backyard) so privacy can still be had.

This is a family oriented neighborhood and good neighborly behavior is desired so we can keep thriving in this wonderful beach town.

For stays longer than 30 days, I require a deposit in the amount of one month's rent to be paid offline due 60 days prior to arrival as well as a formal lease agreement.

This property is pet friendly, though we don't allow cats here. There is a $200 pet fee applied after booking. If you have any questions please ask!

Interaction with Guests:
Check in is completely contactless. You will receive a text with a link with all the details you need for checking in, house details, and departure info. We are available 24/7 in case anything you need should arise.

Great weekend stay

Great property for anyone looking for a place to stay super close to the beach. The home is as listed, lots of room to sleep up to 8 people. Parking is tough if you have more than two cars but that should be expected only 1/2 a block from the beach during the summer.

Great vacation house

The house was great for a 10 day vacation with my teen kids. It was clean and had everything we needed. The parking in back was a huge bonus, as were the boogie boards! We cooked a lot but also walked to the nearby restaurants and cafes. The beach is just steps away, Ocean Beach is fun to explore, and location has easy access to get around the city. The check in/out was super easy and hosts were very friendly. A great vacation house.

Perfect little getaway

It was really nice to stay so close to the beach! There were so many shops and restaurants within walking distance that we rarely ended up using our rental car! Aaron and his team were so helpful and responsive when we had a couple issues pop up during our stay! We even were running a little behind on the day we checked out and he worked with us and was super forgiving! Next time we visit San Diego we will for sure make sure we stay at one of Aaron’s properties!

Amazing Location

Mostly great house and near perfect location. The cleanliness was not what we would have hoped, but I’m looking through pandemic eyes, so may be judging more harshly than I normally would. Super fun, completely walkable location with just a moment’s walk to the beach. Lots of stores and restaurants within easy walking distance too. Comfortable beds and furniture, fun decor.

Great stay!

We had a great stay at this property. The bunk beds were great for my 5 and 6 year olds and the proximity to Ocean Beach was amazing. The property included really cool beach chairs, shampoo/conditioner/body wash in the showers, kitchen basics, and the beds were really comfortable. Like other reviewers, we had a problem with the door code when we first got to the property, but Aaron responded to my emails very quickly with the correct code. Communication with him was great throughout our stay!

Beautiful beach bungalow

We have loved our time here in Ocean Beach and this beautiful property has been an awesome home for six months. We are steps away from the water and have enjoyed beautiful nightly sunset walks and sunny beach days through the winter. The property manager was fantastic, very responsive and super professional. Our family of five fit comfortably and the outdoor space was great too. We highly recommend staying here and we hope to return someday!
