RetroMod w/Ocean Beach Views 3Bedroom/2 Bath, Great Patio and Backyard sleeps 12

The Space: This urban retro/modern house has three bedrooms & 2 bathrooms. It's bright and has an open floor plan - which makes it great for larger families getting together or friends meeting up. Master suite is very spacious and includes queen bed, pullout sofa, futon, and attached full bath. 2 more Queen bedrooms with ample closet space and share a bathroom. There are 3 couches in living room that also convert to futons. The backyard is huge with multiple seating areas and views and a beautiful orange tree so you can have freshly squeezed OJ during your stay!

The Neighborhood
Ocean Beach is a seaside neighborhood with many restaurants, bars, shops, grocery/convenience stores and the beach all at your fingertips! Sunset Cliffs is famous for being the best spot to watch the sunsets and is a short walk or bike ride away!

OB borders Point Loma. Known as "where California began", Point Loma sits on a penninsula and is claimed to be the landing point of the first Europeans who made their way to this western state. Besides being historical, Point Loma is known for its easy access to the Pacific Ocean, Downtown, and the airport. Nearby attractions include SeaWorld San Diego, Marina Village Conf Center and Ocean Beach Athletic Area, Gaslamp District, Little Italy, Old Town, etc.

Getting Around:
Great Location! Walking distance to downtown restaurants/bars in OB and the OB Pier/Beach. Downtown, Little Italy, Old Town, SeaWorld & Ballpark are all a short drive or easy Uber/Lyft ride. Highways are easily accessible for parts north (Del Mar, La Jolla, Mission/PB, Legoland, Safari, etc).

Other things to Note
I recently bought this property so looking forward to continuing to offer the great features to the VRBO community! There are 2 separate units on the property and I live upstairs in the studio apartment. I do travel a lot so also have a VRBO manager that has been operating the property long before I bought it so rentals should be seamless to our guests and improvements are being made as well to enhance the experience of our guests. Please remember that you will be staying in a home, not a hotel. Therefore, we ask that you treat our space with the same respect you would show your own. Our home has an electronic lock for easy access.

Fabulous OB Trip
We had such a great time at the house. Beds were comfortable, the house was so comfortable and walking distance to all that OB has to offer. We will be back again for sure. Thanks for letting us share your home.

Late life bachelorette weekend
We came to town with a group of 9 late 30s-early 50s ladies to celebrate a bachelorette party. Kristen’s house was exactly as described, with plenty of sleeping for all and more than enough room to lounge around. The house and yard were better than expected and I would 100% recommend this place to other groups! Kristen was a very responsive host and super accommodating for our early morning arrival with no rental car, she let us drop our luggage in the garage while the home was finished being cleaned. Super friendly and wonderful to work with, she even left us a little gift during our stay. The house is very clean and in a great location to walk to the beach, dining and shops. Beware of a rather steep incline at the end on your way back, but nothing healthy individuals can’t do. The only “issue” some may have is that the host lives in a separate home above the rental. This was not an issue for our group, but something to note.

Beautiful home
I visited San Diego with my husband, our teenage son and my mother. This lovely property was more house than we needed, but we wanted three bedrooms. The home is bathed in natural light, with an ocean view from both the living room and the master bedroom (which is more like a suite). The backyard is huge and gorgeous, again with an ocean view and a fragrant orange tree that the owner encouraged us to enjoy. Ocean Beach is an excellent location for a laid back "staycation"--there are many great coffee shops, restaurants and shops (as well as the beach) within a 5 minute walk. If you have a car, it's just a 15 drive to many of the SD sights like Balboa Park, Mission Beach and La Jolla. The owner was friendly and easy to communicate with. We would definitely stay here again if we return to San Diego!

Ocean Beach Gem
Everything is true to form about the listing. Its a super well maintained property. Great neighborhood with lots of restaurants and liveliness. Its like 3-4 blocks from the entertainment district which is really a perfect distance away. Definitely try the ripe oranges right off the tree in the backyard, deicious. Everything was super smooth and professional about the process. The kitchen is decently furnished and set up nice for dining although if you can be out back thats the best place to hang out. Def keep in mind that the neighbors are pretty close and after 10pm its quiet time. Me and my friends may or may not have lost track of time one evening in that amazing backyard space and needed a gentle reminder it was after 10pm. Time flies when you are having fun...10/10 recommend!

The place was in a perfect location, with an amazing backyard and beautiful views. We even saw fireworks each night from the table out back. You get your exercise walking up the hill, but it’s just the right amount. I would definitely recommend staying here for a centralized spot in ocean beach.

Great spot
The location and house are amazing for a friend trip to San Diego. It is a short walk to Ocean Beach and a quick trip to Mission Beach and the airport. The backyard and having access to cornhole and bikes was great too. We did a bachelor party and for 9 guys comfortably and tried to mind the noise ordinance as much as we could.

Great Location & Back Yard!
Overall we had a wonderful time at this home, it’s very centrally located in Ocean Beach, easy to walk to everything down on Newport, definitely a steeper road and driveway, but the views from the backyard were amazing & it has a very open living floorplan. The middle bedroom is a bit of a pass-through to get to the back bedroom, so good to know there’s not a ton of privacy in the layout, unless the back bedroom goes outside to get to the kitchen, but overall we had a wonderful time & Kristen was very responsive & helpful!

Kristin's place was perfect for our group of girls! We loved being walking distance from everything we needed to do in OB and having tons of space to spread out. The large back patio was also a great touch! We'd definitely stay again for our next getaway.

Exceeded all my expectations!
Everything about our stay at Kristen’s Vrbo exceeded my expectations! It was exactly what I was hoping for and more for my boyfriend’s surprise birthday weekend. We had friends coming from out of town so I wanted to find a place that embodied San Diego and all it has to offer. There were beautiful ocean views from the front and back yard, and the house was perfect walking distance to downtown OB. The inside was so clean and spacious, comfortably fitting our group of 10. It was nice how spread out the house was in case some wanted to stay up late and others wanted to go to bed early. Everything was so perfect, but I think the best part of our stay was our communication with Kristen. She was the best host and we were so grateful for all of her help. She was so kind, easy to communicate with, and responded quickly to all of our questions. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience, thank you for making our weekend stay so special!!
