1960 Ocean Beach Bungalow w Parking-sleeps 4 w Pak N Play Fire Pit
The House You are renting an entire home with approximately 600 square feet of space. Our previous guests have liked the location for their family retreat to the Zoo or Sea World bc they are both very convenient. The cozy living room for a quiet evening later in the day is waiting for you. The property features a full kitchen equipped with all-electric appliances. The living room includes a wood-burning stove insert for winter fires. For climate control, the house is equipped with an electric wall heater and two window air conditioners. This charming bungalow offers all the comforts of home and is reminiscent of the close-knit enclave of Ocean Beach from the 1960s.
Parking Luckily we have a driveway. Two cars can park in tandem in the driveway; one behind the other. There is quite an angle to the driveway entrance so longer vehicles like RV or extra long trucks should park on the street. Street parking is often challenging in Ocean Beach.
The Bedrooms There are two rooms, one is a master with an ensuite bathroom. The bathroom is a shower/tub combo with a shower curtain for easy bathing of young children. The other room is small but easily fits a (80”x34”) single bed. It is not as wide as a twin bed. The fourth person would sleep on the couch. It is comfortable but does not pull out into a bed. See the photos please.
THE BATHROOM Double sinks, magnifying makeup mirror with shower curtain to make it easier to bath children. You must walk through the master bedroom to use the bathroom. Fresh towels with soaps and shampoos are available and there is a blow dryer.
THE NEIGHBORHOOD And RULES The property is situated in a neighborhood that embodies the Ocean Beach spirit. Please note that it is not part of the new condo era, maintaining a unique character. It’s worth noting that person making reservation must be 25 years old or older. The property has a strict policy against parties, events, or film groups. Unfortunately, no pets are allowed, and smoking is also prohibited. The property is licensed with the number 02738L.
AMENITIES Within walking distance of the property, you’ll find various amenities. These include coffee shops, tea houses, Mexican food restaurants, a Vegan Raw Food establishment (Peace Pies), cleaners, bars, a 7/11 store, and Red Box video rentals. For entertainment, we provide a smart ROKU TV (use your Netflix and Hulu accounts) along with a DVD player.
LAUNDRY For your convenience, there’s a front-loading stacked laundry in the bungalow. This means you can easily take care of your laundry needs during your stay.
DISHES The property is well-equipped for meal preparation. You’ll find dishes, mugs, glasses, pots, pans, and small appliances available for your use. This includes a microwave, Mr. Coffee machine with filters, tea-making facilities, a toaster, and a blender. While there’s no dishwasher, a dish drainer, soap, and towels are provided for washing dishes. The refrigerator is full sized, the stove/oven is glass top.
INSURANCE If you anticipate any travel-related issues, especially for longer stays, it’s advisable to purchase travel insurance. One recommended option is TravelGuard. Having travel insurance can provide peace of mind in case unexpected events disrupt your plans. OCCUPANCY. Please note that this cozy bungalow accommodates up to four people comfortably, with a bed for a third person and a couch for a fourth person for sleeping. We do not encourage groups over 4. The 5th person has a daily additional charge and would need their own mat for the floor. We have extra comforters. You’ll also have parking space for two vehicles in the driveway. AIRPLANE NOISE Keep in mind that Ocean Beach is in the flight path, so there may be intermittent noise from flights 6:00AM to 11:30PM. Some people can ignore the noise but some people cannot.

Thank you for your 5 Star review. We appreciate it. The San Diego Bungalow is right in the center of many family attractions. The zoo, Balboa Park, Sea World, Liberty Square and the beach are all about 10-15 minutes or less. Easy freeway access also.
Was a small cozy place that was close to everything (beaches, Airport, Sea World, etc). Place was as described and worked perfect for my stay.

We love this little San Diego Bungalow. It is just right for us. One queen bed and a 34x80 cot in a separate small room. Great for families with one or two children. Close to Sea World , Balboa Park Zoo and the beach in Ocean Beach.
We did not use the fireplace, but the VRBO was clean and added delivered on its promise. Very nice neighborhood!

Thank you for your 5 Star review for our 1960 Ocean Beach Bungalow in San Diego. We are conveniently located for all events in town and north like the Zoo, Sea World, and the beach.
Thank you for your great review Kim. We gave you a 5 Star review . Hope to see you back. We are changing some things and will have a replacement for the cot in about a week. Thanks again.
Our 1960 Ocean Beach Bungalow is perfectly located for visiting San Diego. Less than 15 minutes from most tourist attractions and downtown . We love visiting ourselves.
We appreciated the designated parking space, as street parking was quite full. The kitchen was fully stocked with pots, pans, and other cooking utensils. The location of the bungalow was a convenient spot to drive a few blocks to the beach or drive north to La Jolla as we did a few times. As the listing states, we did hear many planes during our stay.

Thank you for your review. We notify people of planes so they know the whole area has plane noise . We cannot control that and we expect the to be barely considered in a review since it was disclosed See you next time.
Great little house. All the amenities you would need. Very close to restaurants, coffee shops, etc. Driveway for parking and full size laundry.

Thank you for your great star rating. We do have windows and a ceiling fan in the back room . Was it not working? It draws the AC in that direction. I will work on your bed suggestion.
Perfect location for a SanDiego vacation, clean, homey, safe . We were very pleased with the whole experience

About the host
Hosted by Mabelle Villahermoso
I love to travel to enjoy the people, the foods, languages and customs of a new place. We have been to almost all Latin Countries so I speak a little Spanish. This home became a short term rental because it is perfect for it. The location is great and the on/off highway to the local attractions makes it wonderful. I have enjoyed the people I have met over the Internet as a host and as a guest. It is what the traveling is all about.
Why they chose this property
My son wanted to move to San Diego and I met his fantastic friend and realtor who told me it was the time to buy in 2008. It was and we loved this property for its spaces.
What makes this property unique
We didn't realize how wonderful this location was going to be. It is very convenient to get to places in San Diego that tourist and families would want to visit. The size is perfect for a short term rental and we enjoy texting or emailing new people. The airport is nearby and the downtown area is easy to get to for conventions etc. You don't need to stay in a hotel--what a concept!! Everyone loves the location.
