Great place and location. Everything is as described. Communication was great and check in was easy.This location is so close to the beach restaurants and shops. We walked everywhere and brought the dogs along everywhere as well.Just be aware the street is a busy street and you will have airplane noise. This is common for the area and we were aware of this prior to booking.We will definitely stay here again if it is available.

Holiday Getaway

We come to San Diego every year for 4th of July. This year we decided to travel with our dogs. This was the perfect property and location to have them with us. Close to a park, and dog beach to enjoy the vacation with us. Our family loved the convenience of being a quick walk to the beach, shopping, and restaurants. Despite it being a busy holiday weekend with lots of travelers we had no issues with the street parking daily. The host checked in to make sure we had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable. She left great detailed instructions on the property and we appreciated the recommendation’s of everything around us to enjoy. This was our first time in ocean beach area and would definitely come back and stay again!

Ocean Beach Getaway

Nice clean homebase for fun and sun around Ocean Beach and downtown San Diego. Apartment is 5 minute walk to the main drag of restaurants/bars and even closer walk to the beach. Had a comfortable bed and cozy living room. Parking can be hit or miss especially with the street sweeping but we never parked more than 5 minutes away for the extended weekend we were there. Good communications with property manager.

We spent the weekend at this property. It was very clean and had everything we needed. It was a short walk to the beach. The owner was fabulous.

Wonderful weekend getaway

The communication from the property owner was second to none. She checked in frequently and had recommendations on places to go and things to do. The apartment was perfect for four. Fully functioning kitchen with plenty of utensils and cookware. 2 minute walk to dog beach and 10 from restaurants and shops in either direction. 10/10 would recommend. We’ll be back!

Great location, nicely furnished apartment

The apartment is very comfortable with updated furnishings, lots of towels, pillows, supplies. Nice location a few blocks from the beach and from OB’s restaurants and bars. The only concern was the bedrooms can get hot on a warm day and although the living room area is well air conditioned, the bedrooms stay warm into the evening. (Floor fans are provided). The owner is in touch from booking to arrival and during the stay.

Perfect Beach Vacay!

My family of 4, including 2 teenagers had a great stay at Meiluen’s apartment. Her communication was excellent! It’s 1 block from Ocean Beach and we walked everywhere. We brought our 2 little dogs as well and they enjoyed Dog Beach right next to OB and walking around town with us. The Farmer’s Market on Wednesday night was a lot of fun! The apartment was spotless and very nicely decorated. The a/c was nice in the living room and kitchen but the bedrooms did get a little warm in the afternoon. I would most definitely stay again if ever in the area and highly recommend!
