This was the perfect place for us to stay in Pacific Beach. Walking distance to a coffee shop and convenience store but on a quiet street and behind the main residence on the property. Very kid friendly too. We enjoyed the AC in the unusual heat! We cooked a couple meals there which you can’t always do at an Airbnb these days. The host was very kind and communicative. Easy walk to the beach too! And the parking spot came in handy.

Summer was an amazing host from the moment we booked the VRBO through our point of check out. The home is perfect for 3 guys who wanted to visit SD for the first time. Great neighborhood and an easy walk to the beach. Highly recommend booking with Summer. Not just because of the property but also how welcoming she was and how responsive she was throughout our stay. Thank you for a fun week!
