Beachfront House - Right on the Beach in Ocean Beach

I stayed here with two friends for our first trip to San Diego. This house is perfectly situated near the sand, waves and the pier. We enjoyed sitting by the large window, watching the surfers in the morning, and friendly gatherings around a fire at night. It was so easy to walk on the beach whenever we wanted to! The bedrooms were sufficiently sized (one room is luxuriously large!), and comfortable. The bathrooms were larger than average, and the tile work is stunning! Very nicely decorated home. The kitchen was well stocked for those times when we just wanted to prepare simple meals. You can hear jets flying overhead in the morning, but that never bothered us, as we are early risers. It’s an easy walk to some wonderful coffee shops, and into the little town. We enjoyed the laid-back atmosphere of Ocean Beach, and found everyone to be so friendly. We will certainly rent here again!

Beautiful property located right at the beach. Close to fun shops and great restaurants. Perfect for families with small kids as it has a totally enclosed yard complete with BBQ and picnic table. Owner very responsive to minor plumbing problem we had and arranged to have it taken care of within minutes. Only recommendation to owner, replace bed frames. They are very creaky. Overall it was very nice.

Lovely beach home, lots of rules not posted ahead of time. Book this rental if you like being watched.

Jim was great to work with. He was available for any questions we had. The property is near the beach and within walking distance of the main restaurants and shops. There is a grocery store within walking distance which was nice for those nights we wanted to eat in. Going to Hodad's for a burger was definitely a highlight for the food. After seeing how parking was we were definitely glad we were able to park in front of the property. It was easy to get into and out of. We will definitely keep this place in mind if we ever decide to return to Ocean Beach. The sunsets and beach were excellent. The beach was soft sand and clean. The only thing would have liked was some patio furniture so we could be outside more. That was relatively minor and kind of nit picky. Thanks Jim for letting us rent your house!

This 2nd floor condo is in the perfect location, has a breathtaking ocean view, is convenient to everything Ocean Beach & San Diego have to offer & will make you wish your stay was for much longer than you booked it for. Inside you will find very comfortable older furnishings, a huge updated kitchen with gas range & a homey dining room table high enough that when you sit, you can enjoy beautiful views of the Pacific. The master bedroom has an old-world look & is particularly large with its own balcony access, walk-in closet & private bath. The master bathroom shower is huge & I loved the fact that the handles for the water were out of the way of the shower head so that you could adjust the temperature before getting in. The mosaic work in the bathrooms adds a touch of class that is unique to this property. There is a cabinet in the master with books to read & enjoy. Games, cards & puzzles are in the front hall closet. The 2 smaller bedrooms enjoy that 50-60’s look & feel. There are plenty of bath linens, kitchen dish soap, some spices, paper towels, shower bath gel & toilet paper – all of which are very much appreciated. There are a couple of beach mats & some children’s beach toys on the lower patio. Beach chair rental is nearby & reasonable. Returning from the beach, it was extremely helpful to use the water faucet on the patio to wash off all the sand prior to entering the home, especially since those areas at the beach to rinse off with were so far from where the home is. Parking was a dream in what is a real challenge in other Ocean Beach locations. We were thankful for the basket of pamphlets of restaurants & things to see/do. Be advised that you are in the path of departing planes from the airport. They start at 6:30 AM every day & go up until after 10 PM. This is only an issue if you are a light sleeper or are trying to watch a movie/TV during those hours because you will not be able to hear for a few seconds at a time. We had a great time & the owner was very convenient to communicate with prior to our arrival. Knowing that this lovely home is rented only half the year with the owners living in it the 2nd half provides the confidence that you are truly living in someone else’s home & treat it with the respect it deserves.
