"The cottage was clean and well stocked. Beds were suuuuper comfortable! I would recommend it for anyone looking to explore San Diego."

"We loved that the property was walking distance from the beach. This saved us time and the hassle of finding beach parking. We enjoyed grabbing coffee at the shop on the corner and sitting on the beach every morning. I would definitely visit again!"

"This is a great location right in the heart of Old Town San Diego, with easy access to all ocean beaches. The hostesses were easy to work with and will do everything to make your stay enjoyable. Thank You Dove & Joan."

"This was perfect. It'd be fun to go with a group and rent all the cottages. It's a short walk to a small beach and also a short walk to a great restaurant, El Pescador Fish Market (Ate there 3 times on a four day stay) and a great surf shop, Mitch's surf shop. It would be perfect if it was on the beach. Also, don't miss The Taco Stand. "

"What a beautiful and peaceful property! The landscaping is amazing and the neighborhood is quiet. Close to the beach and within walking distance of numerous coffee stands. We highly recommend this stay and will definitely book again in the future! "

"Location cannot be beat! Neighborhood is quiet. We visited several beaches in the area and the beach right next to our VBRO was our favorite. Parking is on the street but we never had trouble finding a spot. The house was clean and well stocked. Bed was very comfortable. Highly recommend! "

"Surfer vibe vrbo that is close to the beach and restaurants. Board and Brew has delicious sandwiches and is a 5 minute walk. The patio is really nice. We enjoyed our stay and would stay here again. "

"Lots of room for the two of us, and we loved the outside patio area. The beach is a minute's walk from the house. Great location!"

"It was nice to stay away from the touristy areas. We rented bikes and they were perfect to ride to Mission and Pacific Beaches. We also rode to the beach nearest to us where we had breakfast and lunch. They made an exception for our large dog and the place was perfect for our short adventurous stay. "

"The location was perfect for our needs. Owners have been doing a lot of upgrades apparently. Beds were comfy, linens were lovely and lots of towels and beach towels. The kitchen was not equipped for anything but the simplest cooking yet. But when we called our hostess to report that I was cooking soup for dinner on our night of arrival and there was only one single bowl to eat from, she dropped everything and delivered 8 soup bowls immediately. I would be happy to rent this unit again! Thank...

"My friend and I are in a performance group that travels and we are given a budget to pick our own stays. This spot was perfect to be able to enjoy the calmness of SD while getting ready for our shows later in the night "

"Really enjoyed our stay here. The grounds at the complex are landscaped beautifully. There was some building renovations going on but it didn't bother us. (There is scaffolding, materials and workers around.) The beach is very close, and the sand was really nice and clean and lovely to walk on. We didn't rent a car and just walked everywhere; bring good walking shoes if you plan to do this because things are a little far apart for just walking. There are lots of people on bikes, e-bikes,...

"We had an amazing wedding weekend at this property! It was extremely clean, very quiet, quaint, and beautiful. The grocery store was only about 800 feet away. We will definitely be back. "

"We came to San Diego to reunite with our son after his 9 month deployment. This adorable house was the perfect place for us to unwind, and spend quality time. The beds were super comfy, hot tub experience was amazing, directions & check in were easy. Kitchen was well equipped for cooking, enjoying morning coffee, & relaxing. Being a tall family we especially appreciated the high shower head, & hot water was abundant. Decorated very classy & cute. We walked down to the cliffs when the sun...
