About this property
Little Italy Gem | 1BR + Patio + Prime Location
Summary:
Stylish 1-bedroom in the heart of Little Italy—steps from top restaurants, cafes, bars, and the waterfront. Enjoy a bright, modern space with a full kitchen, private patio, in-unit laundry, and a cozy King bed. Walk to the Gaslamp Quarter, explore Balboa Park, or unwind at the beach—everything San Diego has to offer is within easy reach.
The Space:
Welcome to your sunny city escape, nestled right in the heart of Little Italy — San Diego’s most vibrant and walkable neighborhood. This beautifully designed 1-bedroom apartment is perfect for guests looking to explore the city like a local, with restaurants, cafes, bars, shops, and the iconic Little Italy Mercato Farmer’s Market just steps from your front door.
As you walk upstairs and into the space, you’ll be greeted by warm natural light, boho-modern décor, and all the comforts of home. The open-plan living and dining area is perfect for relaxing after a day out on the town, while the cozy bedroom features a plush King bed dressed in hotel-quality linens, ideal for a great night’s sleep.
The fully equipped kitchen comes with stainless steel appliances, cookware, and a coffee maker, making it easy to whip up a meal — though with dozens of incredible dining options within a 2-minute walk, you might never use it! Grab morning coffee from a local café, enjoy aperitivo on a rooftop bar, or indulge in world-class Italian, Mexican, or seafood fare without ever needing to drive.
One of the standout features of the unit is the private patio—an ideal spot to enjoy your morning coffee or evening glass of wine while soaking in the San Diego skyline and energy of the city.
The modern bathroom includes a walk-in shower, vanity stocked with essentials, and plush towels. You’ll also have your own washer and dryer, tucked into a private laundry nook with complimentary detergent, so you can pack light and stay fresh.
Whether you’re here for a romantic getaway, work trip, or extended stay, this home offers the perfect combination of location, style, and comfort. Walk out the door and you’re instantly immersed in one of San Diego’s most exciting neighborhoods—no car required. With the waterfront, Gaslamp, downtown, and airport all just minutes away, you’ll quickly see why guests love staying in Little Italy.
Guest Access:
Guests will have full access and use of the unit 24 hours a day. You can come and go as you like and there’s an electronic lock, so there are no keys to keep up with!
The Neighborhood:
Step outside and you’re in the heart of Little Italy, one of San Diego’s most beloved and vibrant neighborhoods. From charming sidewalk cafés to rooftop cocktail bars, boutique shopping, world-class restaurants, and the iconic weekly farmer’s market, Little Italy offers an unbeatable mix of culture, flavor, and coastal charm — all just steps from your front door.
This central location gives you easy access to the best of San Diego. The lively Gaslamp Quarter is a scenic 20-minute walk away, perfect for nightlife, dining, and entertainment. Spend your days soaking up the sun on nearby beaches, exploring coastal neighborhoods, or diving into the city's top attractions.
Start your sightseeing in Balboa Park, 1,200 acres of gardens, museums, walking trails, and the world-renowned San Diego Zoo — a must-see for visitors of all ages. Water lovers can head to Mission Bay Aquatic Park for paddleboarding, sailing, and waterfront bike rides, or visit SeaWorld San Diego for a day of marine adventure.
Looking for a taste of the laid-back SoCal surf scene? Make your way to La Jolla, where you’ll find stunning cliffs, crystal-clear waters, and endless opportunities for kayaking, snorkeling, or catching a wave.
Whether you're here to explore the city, relax by the coast, or simply enjoy life in one of San Diego’s most walkable and picturesque neighborhoods, this Little Italy home places you right in the center of it all.
Getting Around:
The best way to get around is on foot with so many great places to explore all right by the studio. Guests can also use a taxi service or a ride share company like Uber with plenty of cars at any time of the day or night.
Or if you want to see the city at your own pace, look out for the on-demand electric scooters and bikes that are just an app away and located all around the area.
Other Things to Note:
This property is professionally managed and cleaned to provide stellar service for all of our guests! Think of it as a hotel-like experience in a spacious furnished apartment! The unit is stocked with bath towels, hairdryers, Irons, and hotel-style body wash and shampoo/conditioner. If you need anything additional during your stay, please feel free to reach out!

It’s likely you won’t see me during your stay, which allows you more privacy and convenience. However, I am here anytime you need to reach out. If you need anything or have questions, just send me a message via Airbnb and I’ll be quick to respond.
