Tiny Clean Getaway

My daughter and I stayed a few days before she began her studies at SDSU. Steps away from the bay and the beach, it was quite convenient. The property is itty bitty, but quite comfortable with all the home away from home amenities needed to cook, sleep, lounge and relax.

Perfect location

Amazing location! Bay to the left and beach to the right. It is a little noisy late at night because of the proximity to the bars/restaurants on Mission but the neighbors are quiet. House was very clean and they provided sand toys and beach chairs. House has everything you need and the beds are comfortable. The only issue we had was how dark it is inside. During the day it’s good, but by 4 pm it is super dim inside, even with all the lights on.

Beach getaway for 30th bday

Stay was great at an amazing location is amazing. I wish the host did a better job emphasizing how to prepare for parking if you arrive midday. I also recommend adding a pillow topper to the mattress (which was very firm) and some additional lighting throughout the space.

Fantastic Location

This property’s location was awesome - only about 1-2 blocks from the beach and boardwalk but far enough away for things to be pretty quiet. Also very close to many bars/restaurants. The home had everything we needed and the beds were super comfy.

Cottage was perfect for a short beach getaway. Convenient to beach and restaurants and shopping. Didn't have to move the car once we got there! Will definitely return.

Girls' Trip

The place was very clean and the location was great. It was very central to other areas of the city, and the neighborhood had plenty of restaurants and shops within walking distance. The beach was also a very short walk. I would recommend getting some more lights in the apartment and maybe a dehumidifier. It was cold and damp and dark but we didn't spend much time inside other than sleeping.

Great Location!

We had a blast at this spot, space was very clean. Two minor things was the humidity within the space and the lack of lighting. If you are looking for location, this is a great spot.

Perfect/most vibey little spot

This beach house was the perfect/most vibey little spot for our end of summer family trip! We brought our 9 month old and 2.5 year old and has the BEST time ever! So cozy and accommodating and right in the heart of anything you could want! There’s no shortage of options for breakfast, coffee, dinner, shopping right smack between the ocean and the bay. We felt so at home which says a lot when having two little kiddos away from their routine, beds, etc! I wish I could give this experience more stars because we made lifelong memories and are so grateful.

Great location

We arrived the night of the non-hurricane Hillary. The place was neat and tidy. It’s small but serves our purposes well. Beach and bay time everyday. Walkable to restaurants and bike riding paths are so convenient as well as boat launch and parking was not a problem. We had a few minor issues from the weather but the responses were fast and were resolved asap. Friendly neighbors, good area and BBQ and porch chairs were appreciated. Allowing a dog was really helpful. All in all a great stay. I would return here again as it was one of the few places that we could afford. Bonus: There is a fantastic coffee cart right outside the front door. We were spoiled with delicious coffee and homemade empanadas everyday!

Just perfect!

It was the right size, with the right amenities and in a perfect location. Close to great restaurants The Olive, Molly’s, Mission and Guava Beach Cafe. The coffee shop next door gets you up early, but so close to enjoy fresh coffee each morning. We really enjoyed our stay!

Great location for a beach getaway

The rental process was smooth. The owner/host was always very quick to respond to any questions. The home was clean and well stocked with towels and kitchen items. They had a lovely bag of waters and snacks when we arrived, which was really appreciated. Parking was tricky. We were never lucky enough to get street parking. We always had to park in a parking lot that was a bit of a walk from the property. It wasn’t an issue except when it came to loading and unloading for our arrival and departure. The location is great, it was a quick and easy walk to the bay or the ocean. There is a delicious coffee place right by the property. It is convenient, however, the noise from the coffee place woke me up each morning since it is quite close by. Overall, we would stay here again, we would just pack less since we had to walk a bit with our luggage.
