Guesthouse in North Ocean Beach

4.83 out of 5 average rating, 383 reviews

Beach Cabin Guesthouse with Patio Deck

Our charming Seahorse cottage is steps from the ocean & beach --as well as nightlife, shopping and dining within walking distance (3 min). It is a studio with a kitchenette and all the amenities necessary for a comfortable stay. Included is WIFI, cable tv, parking and a patio to unwind. For the back cottage (seahorse) you will have front door access located closest to the parking area. Access to get in is via a 4 digit code that we manage for you. It is a code that will last your entire stay. Along with access, you will also have two parking spots for cars to park. Parking in OB is scarce so this indeed is a bonus! Your stay as our guest is our top priority. Even though we do not need to be onsite (we give you a 4 digit code that gives you a key) we are always available to you should you need us, via text, email and/or phone. We want you to enjoy your vacation but know that everyone interacts differently. If you need help, advice on places to eat, visit or even how to get there do not hesitate to reach out for clarification or advice. We love our city and cottages so we want you to have a wonderful experience while visiting our favorite beach --Ocean Beach. Ocean Beach is a coastal community northwest of downtown San Diego. It is bohemian in nature and brings a very relaxed and eclectic mix of visitors. The main strip on Newport Avenue is only 2 few short and flat blocks away. It has great places to eat, drink and sjop at the many boutiques. The best part of staying in OB is that you really don't need a car here--you can catch a ride with uber from the airport to the beach cottages for less than $15 or a cab, uber or lyft for a bit more ($15-20 to our beach cottages)
