Tiny Clean Getaway
My daughter and I stayed a few days before she began her studies at SDSU. Steps away from the bay and the beach, it was quite convenient. The property is itty bitty, but quite comfortable with all the home away from home amenities needed to cook, sleep, lounge and relax.

Fantastic Location
This property’s location was awesome - only about 1-2 blocks from the beach and boardwalk but far enough away for things to be pretty quiet. Also very close to many bars/restaurants. The home had everything we needed and the beds were super comfy.

Great location and clean.
Great location. Cute and clean place. Was pretty noisy on Saturday night because it's so close to a bar, but not enough to keep us awake. Thankful there is parking available in the nearby park. AC stopped working but they responded pretty quickly.

Beach getaway for 30th bday
Stay was great at an amazing location is amazing. I wish the host did a better job emphasizing how to prepare for parking if you arrive midday. I also recommend adding a pillow topper to the mattress (which was very firm) and some additional lighting throughout the space.

We had a blast at this spot, space was very clean. Two minor things was the humidity within the space and the lack of lighting. If you are looking for location, this is a great spot.

It was the right size, with the right amenities and in a perfect location. Close to great restaurants The Olive, Molly’s, Mission and Guava Beach Cafe. The coffee shop next door gets you up early, but so close to enjoy fresh coffee each morning. We really enjoyed our stay!

Perfect location
Amazing location! Bay to the left and beach to the right. It is a little noisy late at night because of the proximity to the bars/restaurants on Mission but the neighbors are quiet. House was very clean and they provided sand toys and beach chairs. House has everything you need and the beds are comfortable. The only issue we had was how dark it is inside. During the day it’s good, but by 4 pm it is super dim inside, even with all the lights on.

Girls' Trip
The place was very clean and the location was great. It was very central to other areas of the city, and the neighborhood had plenty of restaurants and shops within walking distance. The beach was also a very short walk. I would recommend getting some more lights in the apartment and maybe a dehumidifier. It was cold and damp and dark but we didn't spend much time inside other than sleeping.

Perfect/most vibey little spot
This beach house was the perfect/most vibey little spot for our end of summer family trip! We brought our 9 month old and 2.5 year old and has the BEST time ever! So cozy and accommodating and right in the heart of anything you could want! There’s no shortage of options for breakfast, coffee, dinner, shopping right smack between the ocean and the bay. We felt so at home which says a lot when having two little kiddos away from their routine, beds, etc! I wish I could give this experience more stars because we made lifelong memories and are so grateful.
