So get the group text going now -- we are ready to host you, your family, and friends!
The home is completely private and located in a peaceful residential neighborhood. There`s room for 3 cars (or two larger SUVs) in the driveway, and street parking is free, unregulated, and readily available.

Head out the sliding glass doors and relax on the wonderful outdoor furinture set -- you`ll be able to catch that signature Southern California beach breeze. What could be better? Oh, a STUNNING ROOFTOP DECK maybe?! Climb up the final flight of stairs for incredible ocean views from our massive rooftop deck. You can dine, drink, relax and barbecue with our top-notch gas grill, all while watching a breathtaking cotton-candy sunset. Don`t miss out on making this truly magical space yours!

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. You are still removed enough to enjoy a more quiet, neighborhood experience, while still being close enough to enjoy the night life of OB. All of OB is accessible on foot from this location. So enjoy and take it all in!
There are 3 parking spots (2 SUVs) in the driveway. Street parking is also free and unregulated in the neighborhood.
Pets welcome! There is a $150 pet fee. We don`t allow cats in this property.

A great place to stay in San Diego. The views from the 2nd floor and roof deck were simply outstanding. A couple of sets of stairs, but well worth the climb. The location was terrific; a nice residential neighborhood with quick and easy access to Ocean Beach, Point Loma, Sea World and downtown San Diego. The house has plenty of space, is well appointed and is very clean. The description in the VRBO listing is quite accurate. Highly recommend this home for a stay in San Diego.

Hi Thomas.Thank you for the 5-star review. We're glad you enjoyed your stay. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we can't wait to welcome you back soon! -Vacation Rentals By Aaron
Property was great for our group of 6 plus a baby. Listing said highchair, but we didn't find one on the property. We were given information on how we could rent one for our stay by the owner, so that was helpful.
There are a lot of stairs which was okay for us but wouldn't be great for some people. We loved the upstairs patio and upstairs familyroom! Would highly recommend this home as it's close to everything you would need in Ocean Beach!upstairs family room.
