The space was tight but had everything we needed the cost was fair. The location was good for exploring San Diego and then making an early trip to the airport. We had a little trouble with the lock the first time but the host was quick to answer the phone and helped to fix the problem.

Look at other reviews of this property on VRBO before booking. The horror stories from other travellers are true. The place has a mold issue, smells terrible, is nowhere close to the photos and the front door doesn’t shut properly leaving guests unsafe from easy break in or pest access. This property needs to be removed from VRBO / Expedia because it’s a gross misrepresentation as it is currently listed. Worst is the hosts attitude when we raised our issue and the way Expedia was unable to help us and the endless back and forth, per another VRBO review, for a refund. AVOID at ALL COSTS.
Perfect location, short walk to beach and through nice neighborhood
We loved the location and there's a cute pool hall bar within 5 minute walk with a nice vibe and juke box. Had a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend in this special neighborhood and VRBO! Will hopefully be able to stay here again as we lucked out with the availability.
Property was clean and fresh, just like described and photos
We stayed 2 nights wanting to be close to Ocean Beach. Everything went well. It is small, but nice. Offstreet parking was tight with a larger vehicle, but great to have.
The place is small but on a budget its great. If you are over 6ft the shower can be a bit of a challenge. The hosts were responsive and the place was nice and clean.
My boys and I absolutely loved this space! I stayed there with my two teen boys and my 4year old and we all loved it! Beach is just a very little walk away and it’s also a walk away from the strip of local retail shops, restaurants, bars, etc. The host was amazing, communication was great and our messages were responded to in a very timely manner.
The place was great for a weekend stay! It was a bit small but good enough for our small family. We enjoyed how close it was to the beach and neighboring restaurants. The property owner was very communicative, and left everything we’d need for a weekend stay. If we come back to this area, we will probably look into this property again!
The Beach Bungalow is a great jumping off spot for exploring Ocean Beach. One thing to really highlight is the off street parking - worth its weight in gold. If bungalows didn't have their own parking you could circle the block for days or forever! The unit itself is just like the photos - very small - not a place so much to hang out but a great place for exploring Ocean Beach. Plus it has easy access to Mission Beach, Downtown, and Pt Loma. Super fun!

Do Not Book!
Buyer beware! The overall property was in a good location, but it was very hot.
We arrived at the property to check in and noticed right away that the door to our unit was replaced so there was no way to get into the place. There was also construction materials all over the porch. It was obvious there was work being done to the unit and there was no way for us to get in. It seems like the property manager would be aware that we were checking in and the unit was not available. I messaged the host about the situation and we went to dinner. then messaged her through VRBO three additional times over the next 1.5 hours - no response. I found a phone number and called. Rebecca answered and said she would move us to Unit A and she would send instructions. She also said she would refund us a day due to the trouble. We got back to the rental and waited an hour before we were finally got the instructions for the second unit. It was not ideal, but I was satisfied.
The short of it is that I have been ignored or strung along now for 5 weeks and never received a 1-day refund. I messaged 3 times through VRBO, texted 2 times, and called 2 times. I never raised my voice and was "disconnected" conveniently during my last call. Every time I spoke with the host she was rude. I called back and left a message and have come to the realization that I will not receive my refund.
Do not book this property!
BEWARE! We tried to stay but the heat was unbearable inside due to no A/C. It had to have been sealed up for significant time the way it felt inside. We arrived at 5:30pm, opened all windows, front door & turned the 3 portable fans & ceiling fan on. We messaged the host at 8pm after not being able to cool property to a tolerable temp to sleep. After not hearing from host, we decided to leave. When host finally replied she rudely wrote that property does not have A/C “as stated in the listing” & there would be no refund. Nowhere in the property description does it say “does not” have A/C. That info should have been stated, allowing us, the guests, to make the decision to rent or not. It seems the host KNOWS it’s a problem when there are 3 portable fans & a ceiling fan in about 400 sqft! Supposedly we are the only guests that have ever said anything about the lack of A/C. The host is completely unprofessional. It was over an hour the first time we messaged regarding the heat before she responded but amazingly she responded throughout the rest of the conversation the following day within minutes after sending a message to her. The host accused us of not vacating the property, saying we were “not honest”. Thankfully we took video as we left, locking the door on our way out. Do yourself a favor & find another property with a host that is professional & a property description that lists material facts so you can make an informed decision.
