We had a great time in Ocean Beach. The property was very clean, and we appreciated having a dedicated parking spot. The location was phenomenal: close to all the action, but off the main drag enough for some quiet, and an easy walk to the beach. The communication was excellent from the owner. Would definitely recommend!
Very convenient location, no noise from neighbors, clean and the host was quick to respond to all questions.

Great place! The host was very communicative and quickly replied to messages. The place was clean and comfortable. The location can't be beat. 2 blocks from the main street on ocean beach with lots of bars, restaurants and shops. 5 minute walk to the beach.

Thank you so much for your kind words! It was truly a pleasure hosting you, and you’re welcome back anytime!
We enjoyed our stay in Dan Diego. We loved being so close to the beach, shops, and food. It was such a a close drive to Seattle World, Coronado, and Old Town. Alessandra was so accommodating, providing a playpen for us and high chair since we have a 2 year old and the apartment was a perfect size for what we needed for the 7 days that we stayed. We look forward to staying again!

My parter and I stayed at Alessandra’s property for a month with our small dog. Her place had everything we needed. A perfect home away from home. Was great to walk our pup on the beach every morning!

Thank you so much for this thoughtful review! Hosting you both (and sweet Song!) for the month was truly a pleasure. I’m so happy to hear the home had everything you needed and that it became a comfortable, peaceful retreat during your stay.

I would give this property and its host 10 stars! Everything was perfect, from check in to check out. Communication with the awesome host Alessandra was super easy. Location was amazing, property is beautifully maintained and clean. Proximity to the beaches and shops was fantastic. Our dog Oliver had a wonderful stay as well! We will absolutely be booking with Alessandra again, we were so happy to call this our home for the past week! See you next time!

We had a wonderful time; the apartment was very clean and the host Alessandra was very accommodating and responsive. Location was great with only a short ~5min walk to the beach. We appreciated the dedicated parking spot as well as the option for the extra beach amenities (boogie boards, etc).

Thank you for sharing your experience in my vacation rental Nina . It was a pleasure to host you and your family . I am looking forward to host you again . Thank you for your care to my vacation rental . You are always welcome back !
Super cute place in OB. As described and close to the beach. We stayed with myself, husband, mother and 2 young girls. It was a full house, but we stayed so busy we had no issue feeling comfortable. The couch pulls out and easily created a bed that fit my 6 and 7 year old comfortably. For the price and location in San Diego you really can't beat it! We appreciated the bikes and beach chairs and wagon as well. The place had some modern and updated features that made it feel quaint and comfortable.

Thank you so much for the thoughtful card and the adorable artwork your daughters made—it was such a heartwarming surprise! I had the pleasure of meeting them, and I just have to say: they are the sweetest girls and such wonderful little dog lovers. It truly brought a smile to my face.
I’m so happy to hear you had a great time during your stay. Hosting guests like you makes it all so meaningful. Your kindness and positive energy were felt in every corner of the home.
You’re always welcome back anytime!

Cozy rental. Had everything we needed. Loved our stay, we will probably rent again. We really got a good use of the bikes and the beach chairs, very convenient. Close to shops and conveniently located to explore San Diego. Alessandra was very helpful and responsive.
Terrific rental! It looks exactly as pictured and was perfectly appointed and very clean. Very close to restaurants and shops. Alessandra was so helpful with our inquiries and responded quickly. The unit is located in the alley behind the main road. You have to drive around to the back of the block to access the unit. This makes it nice and quiet at night away from any street noise. Would definitely stay here again!
I usually give outstanding reviews, this is my 1st most horrible review. First getting the reservation was a mess, she blamed VRBO. The home is located on a back alley way. The appt had electrical issues to start, the host fixed.
Here is the worst part! I was accused of having more than 3 people in the unit. Me, 59 my son 6 and my niece 18. On early morning my sister and law stayed for about 6 hours, Saturday AM her sons and daughter came over for the day and left to LA around 4ish. She accused me of breaking the rules and having more than I said and kicked us out 4 days early and no refund!!!!
Also, when I first booked it said Pets ok. I got charged an extra $600 for my cat and said I broke the rules but with the extra charge I could stay. She also said the neighbors complained they the room smelled like feces, lol. What a joke I spoke to the neighbors and they said the said nothing of the sort. I videoed when I left and it was immaculate.
I am so frustrated with this booking.
Stay Away!!!! Total Karen camera watcher and liar. A total rip off!!!!
