Perfect stay

This is a fantastic place! We were travelling in couple with a kitten. We came from Italy! Our vacation in San Diego was perfect because of this studio, you can find in it everything you need from the hairdryer to the mixer to a fantastic welcome margarita. Everything is clean and the apartment is completely usefull. You can walk just a few blocks and you're in one of the most famous beach of San Diego, you have two fantastic bicycles and you can go everywhere..we went by bycicle to Ocean Beach! That is pretty far.. We usually had dinner at home, because we are Italian so we love have dinner at home and cook togheter and we enjoy the bbq in the lovely garden and the fully equipped kitchen. But you are close to reataurant and pub, and to the shops! We hope to come back to San Diego as soon as we can! Thank you Alisa and Darren!

Clean, cozy location. Two blocks from the beach and minutes to the freeway or Downtown S.D. Owners were great. A real hidden gem on Tourmaline. Shops and stores all within walking distance.

We went for our anniversay for 5 days with our two small dogs and really enjoyed our stay. Darren and Alisa were kind and helpful. The studio was clean, cozy and I liked the decor, for example: the bathroom-shower was great. It is in a central location close to everything. We highly recommend this studio.

My sister and I stayed here and absolutely fell in love with this studio , it's decor, the shower, the patio, the neighborhood. This is so much better than staying in a hotel, especially if you want to experience local living. Very clean! It's a very close run, walk, bike ride to the beach, cute local restaurants, or the touristy ones if you prefer. Grocery store just down the street. Alisa is wonderful!

My husband and I enjoyed a perfect weekend at this studio. It is very cozy, quiet, and clean. Loved having use of bikes, although the beach and shops are within walking distance. Highly recommend breakfast at Kono's, coffee at Pacific Bean, and yogurt at Yogurtland. This is our 2nd stay with Alisa and Darren(perfect hosts) and we will definitely be back again! We really appreciate the artistic quality of both studios and always look forward to the chips and margaritas! Love, love, love Pacific Beach and this perfect spot!

This property is perfect! Alisa is super accommodating and my husband and I (and our 2 dogs) had an awesome SD weekend getaway. The studio was just the right size for us, and we loved being able to walk to breakfast & dinner (Fig Tree is great for breakfast & The Fishery was a nice dinner spot). I would definitely recommend this rental and can't wait to make a return trip :)

Beautiful Place, Beautiful People

Review Submitted: 07/21/11
My husband and I stayed at Tourmaline Beach Studio in April 2010 (my first time to San Diego). From the first correspondence with the owners (Darren & Alisa), we knew we were in great hands. We drove from Vail, CO, with our dog (he had just been diagnosed with lymphoma, so we knew this would likely be his last trip with us); located the rental without difficulty, and settled quickly and comfortably into a clean, cozy studio with everything we needed. They even had margarita fixings set up for us with chips and salsa! The enclosed back patio with swing, table, and grill, was a great bonus, too! We surfed, cooked, explored the neighborhoods, and just thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Sadly, before our trip had ended, our dog took a turn for the worse. We contacted Alisa for a vet recommendation, and she helped us at a moment's notice. Although we had to say goodbye to our Pooh in San Diego, and left a day early, Alisa and Darren returned our deposit and last night's rent without hesitation. They also brought their dog by for some canine therapy, and hugged us (though we were essentially strangers). I cannot express what that meant to us at the time, and does to this day. The caring and warmth they showed us - from the top condition of their rental, to the truly beautiful support in our hour of need - says everything. Please put this property on your list. you won't regret it. P.S. The shower is awesome!!!!!

Three dogs and a dissertation

This property as well as the larger back property gave me the ability to get away and write bringing my three girls with me. Darren and Alisa are amazing and so helpful, whether it was changing out furniture or giving suggestions for some great dog beaches, two are very close by car. I have fallen in love with the studio on Tourmaline that I can't wait to return. This time with the dogs and a dissertation completed. Time for downtime in San Diego!

My young son and I stayed at this nice studio for 3 days and 2 nights. It is well maintained and the owners are responsive to any needs or requests. The location is only a few blocks from shops and from the ocean. There is an especially nice Thai restaurant in the neighborhood. We especially enjoyed the patio and swing in the back of the unit. We hope to return soon.

We have only positive things to say about our stay at Tourmaline. Great for 2 people. Wonderful to have a parking space (which is gold in this town). Our hosts (Alisa and Darren) were there if we needed them and very accommodating. Central to surfing, kayaking, deep-sea fishing, shopping, the zoo (things we did) and night life and so much more. Huge number of surfers use this beach, pretty cool to see. Great city, great place to stay.
