Modern Pacific Beach 1 Bedroom Apartment With AC.
Great place! Walkable to the beach and very clean! I’d stay here again.

Modern & Relaxing Get-away | 1BR w/ Full Kitchen
The host and the place was amazing, we loved how spacious and how clean the place was. The only xomplaint that I have would be the parking and safety of neighborhood. It's hard to find parking on street..

🌺Tropical Beach Paradise Condo with A/C and Patio
So close to the beach and good food! We had the most perfect stay and will definitely be back. Perfect for an extended stay as the kitchen is fully stocked with essentials for cooking.

Ben's Beach Bungalow 5, cheery Mission Beach 1BR!
Great location with many good restaurants and close to the beach. Simple kitchen wares but we did not cook while there so no problem. Nice deck area to sit in the sun too.

1 bedroom apt // BEACH ACCESS // Unit B
Absolutely book this condo—you won't regret it! The host is fantastic, the condo is stunning, and the location is breathtaking. You'll be grateful you made this choice! We can’t wait to come back.

Beach Paradise #1 3 Blocks to Beach! WIFI Cable AC
This spot is perfect for a group visiting Pacific Beach. Super close to the beach and all of the awesome restaurants and bars that surround it. This spot was great for hanging out at during down time, and was a great home base for our beach-going weekend. I would stay here again in a heartbeat while visiting PB!

Baja Beach Hideaway in Crown Point!
My friend and I stayed at Kai & Bev's Baja Hideaway for two nights and it was the perfect, most peaceful stay. Kai was so thoughtful in reaching out to ensure we had everything we needed to make our stay go well. He even helped us plan out a perfect morning coffee route to enjoy the weather, ocean views, and delicious breakfast. The unit itself was so tidy and clean, with all the amenities we needed. We especially enjoyed being tucked away in a quiet neighborhood after our busy days adventuring around San Diego, to rest and recharge. Thank you thank you thank you to Kai & Bev for your hospitality and creating such a beautiful place to stay!

21-1A Downtown Adjacent Apart w/views from balcony
Stayed here for a few days! Very clean and amenities as listed. I definitely would stay again. Very good find for this price! The building was easy to find and easy to access. About 10-15 minute walk to the downtown area, even quicker by bus! Thanks Kevin!
Apartment rentals with a hot tub

"10 min away from everything"
Place was very nice and worked well for us. Definitely keeping in mind for future visits.

Beach Apartment near Oceanside Pier
Love staying here with my kids. They enjoy the beach and pool. I enjoy surfing! The bed and pull out sofa are very comfortable. I personally appreciate tons of hooks to hang up wet stuff. Can’t wait to stay here again!

Hot Tub Bungalow-Belmont Park
We loved our stay in Mission Beach! Perfect for both relaxing and having fun on the boardwalk. The private hot tub was a great amenity to come home to every night in February, when the ocean is still too cold to swim in. The home is tucked away in a cute alley of beach houses and relatively private for being in such a bustling area. We would love to stay again!

La Jolla Windansea Paradise Two
Great location. It's near a surfer beach, but if you're comfy with the ocean, it's a great hang. Also, within about 10m of the main La Jolla Beach which is superb. Cy has all your needs for a great beach stay: boogie board, umbrella, towels, chairs, sand mat, toys. Close location to some decent food. Cy communicates quickly and thoroughly, but otherwise stays out of your way. Place was very clean with a cool shower head. Neighbors in the apartment were very friendly as well. Would absolutely recommend for a beach stay.

Sweet Sea
Bryan’s space was beautifully updated, full of high end features, and in a wonderful area of San Diego, close to the beach and lots of local neighborhood restaurants. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and appreciated Bryan’s prompt responsiveness, friendliness, and flexibility. We highly recommend it and would definitely stay here again.

Luxurious La Costa Condo!
This was a last minute staycation and the hosts were very responsive and accommodating. The unit was clean and well stocked. Large bathroom with a great tub and steam shower. The property has a few dining choices and is nice to walk around. Very safe and quiet area.

Hot Tub, New 2 Bedroom Park Blvd Condo
we had a great time at this place. The place is very safe, clean, and the communication was excellent. Thank you.

Hidden Gem with Hot Tub and Parking - 4 Guests
Adam was an absolute lifesaver. After being left stranded by another host, I sent a last-minute request and he responded right away with kindness and professionalism. The home was immaculate, with so many thoughtful and charming touches that made me feel right at home. The space was quiet, the water pressure and temperature were perfect, and everything was just as described. There was a minor issue with a guest accidentally taking my parking spot, but Adam resolved it immediately—he was truly on top of everything. This stay turned what could’ve been a stressful night into a peaceful and welcoming experience. I’d absolutely stay here again and highly recommend booking with Adam !

2bed 2bath Steps to the Sand in Mission Beach and
This is such a fantastic location! You can see the bay from the patio & so close to the beach!! We walked or Ubered everywhere… which was cheap 🙂 Lots of natural light with all the windows & the temp inside was perfect with the fans provided. Love the live plants inside too 🪴 .. so homey, comfy & clean. We had such a great time 🌊☀️🏖️

1 bedrm 2 bath AC sleeps 6, pking patio, bikes SUP
This place matched the listing exactly. The outdoor patio is a nice space. We loved the location and had a great stay.

Oceanfront Oasis: Step from Your Door to the Sand
This lovely property is directly on the beach and strand. We watched dolphins offshore from the patio door. The kitchen was well stocked. The furniture and beds were beachy and comfortable. The beach was beautiful for walking and swimming.

Charming Studio in Vibrant Walkable Neighborhood
I had a wonderful stay at this apartment. It was spotlessly clean, and the host was very responsive and helpful. The neighborhood was charming and convenient, and I especially appreciated the large, spacious closet. Highly recommend!
