About this property

Retro Sea Cottage 180' Ocean Front Panoramic View

There are really few words to describe how breath taking, and cute this house really is in words, but i'll try my best.

Besides from geographically being in arguably one of the most beautiful areas of all Southern Calfornia, La Jolla, San Diego . The panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean can easily speak for itself.

15 min from Sea World. 25 minutes from San Diego Zoo. 164 steps from the sand. This house offers everything you could want for your family, friends, and guest for the most ideal ocean front living at it's finest.

Our open concept living space and kitchen area gives you a full time view of the ocean at all angles. The house was built in the 1950's and with it's original bones in place, the house was recently refurbished and remodeled to fit even the most luxurious guest. Everything is new.

A giant back patio with plenty of seating for all your guest will make life of the party. A large 8 person massage therapy Jacuzzi spa is best during the evening sunset or on a clear, moonlit, and star filled sky.

Our large driveway and street parking makes it extremely accessible for all your vehicles or guest cars.

Sand toys, beach chairs, surfboards, boogey boards, and many more essentials are all at a moments grab ,and run down on the beach in less then a minute.

With everything you could possibly want for the most leisurely , or fun filled visit, Chelsea St Seaside Cottage has it all.

Incredible virw

We stayed here over Christmas. Cody was so easy to deal with. We watched the surfers everyday. The house was perfect, so clean and cozy. Just what we wanted! My two daughters and sons-in-law visited for a day. We all loved it and would definitely stay here again. Thanks Cody for sharing this wonderful home!

Just book it!

Rentals don’t get much better than this. Check in process was smooth and Cody had great communication. His place is well stocked and does not feel like a rental, kitchen has everything you need and the deck is gigantic! There were no bad elements of this VRBO. 10/10 stay

Everything promised

Quiet location just north of Pacific Beach and south of La Jolla. The pictures do not lie! The place feels huge; the back patio is paradise. Little extras are available that other owners forget, and the kitchen is incredibly well-equipped.

Will definitely stay here again!

SoCal is a tough place to find a truly clean rental. This place was immaculate! And the pictures do it no justice. Clean, quiet, great location, incredible views and stocked with all the essentials. The host had great communication. We've stayed at numerous VRBO's and this one is towards the top of the list. Very spacious and plenty of seating inside and out. Every person on our vacation absolutely loved this rental (ages 12-75). Thanks again and look forward to staying with you in the future!

Loved the location on a quiet street. Two minutes walk to the surf beach. Incredible view. Great indoor outdoor living room and terrace. Love the open floor plan. Friendly neighborhood and lovely restaurants a short 10 minute walk away.

Amazing beach cottage with incredible view

Our family of four had a fantastic long weekend at the cottage. The home is comfortable, clean, and had everything we needed. (Appreciated the extra towels and comfy beds!). Location was perfect. We enjoyed walking into town for meals and coming back to the incredible view. Beautiful home in a beautiful neighborhood. We hope to return in the future.
