A little bit about Ocean Beach:

This small beach town is a favorite among locals who spend their days surfing, sunbathing around the pier, hanging out in their vintage VW vans, and strolling through the many surf shops, taco stands and antique malls. Ocean Beach has a throw-back groovy vibe of vintage SoCal, coupled with friendly locals and great dining

Nestled between the San Diego River and the hills of Point Loma, Ocean Beach is perfect for surfers to enjoy the waves created by jetties. The beach is also friendly for swimmers, sunbathers, even dogs too!

Great place to stay
This place is great! Right across from the beach and around the corner from all of the restaurants! House was clean and had ample space! The bathroom is somewhat small, Butt hat is expected at beach houses in the area! I would definitely stay here again!

Location
My husband, best friend and I stayed here last year so we came back. Still great location. The noise level was much higher, more people and planes flying overhead. More deliveries from large trucks. Less homeless. Great Wednesday night street fair. Walk everyday on the beach with the pups. The place is spacious and we love the two extra rooms at the front especially the glassed in patio. Heads up…They have a ‘starter kit’ of supplies. One roll of TP, 1 tea towel and 2rolls of paper towels. No couch throws to keep warm at night.

Ocean Beach
The unit was not really listed as seen. Advertising showed a clear picture of the ocean. Not true. There were cars almost totally blocking our view. Trash trucks. Some by 3-4 times a day right next to our bedroom. The air conditioner had a humming/wining noise 24 hours a day. Guest unable to sleep in guest room. There were no lounge or beach chairs to use to go to beach. Would not stay here again

Not a good fit
This property was extremely noisy. From the renters upstairs moving furniture and clomping around all night, to the bongo music across the street until midnight, topped off with a very loud a/c unit in the living room, it was difficult getting sleep. Then there was the parking area that was being torn up due to a plumbing problem right smack in front of the view windows for the ocean view (blocked). This construction also eliminated the parking! Our whole group agreed we’d never stay here again.

Great and fun location!
My husband and BFF travel together often. We will come back to this unit. Why, Ocean Brach is extremely dog friendly! The pups can be on the beach before 9 am and after 6pm. They are allowed in most establishments. We loved the enclosed patio where we played games and watch the people. We all felt like we were back in the 69’s! Loved the street fair. The only negative was the air conditioning did not work. They sent out people but it needed more work. Very stuffy at night and the fan was to dirty to use. I don’t think the cleaning couple really did a great job. Floor was dirty and the kitchens table wasn’t cleaned properly. We look forward to coming back for more stays. !!

Best rental on Abott st.
This location can not be beat! We really enjoyed our outdoor enclosed patio which was great for safety in terms of covid-19. The layout of the house was perfect for getting a little indoor exercise for our puppy. If you love OB then this rental will put you in the heart of it. Laundry is a little inconvenient but overall a great place to stay.

Super close to beach but noisy at evening
The apartment is great location across the beach, close to walking distance to restaurants. Apartment was clean and spacious for the convenient location. However, on most of the evening there are lots of noise around the place. On Wednesday evening, they have farmers market on the evening which was cool, but drum playing in front of the apartment till midnight! If you are looking for quiet evening with beach sounds, this may not be the place to stay.

Better than expected!
Upgrades are amazing! We have been staying in this condo over the past 15 years. This year was the best because the new arrangement added an extra "bedroom" which was perfect for our family. The enclosed patio was a great space to hangout and watch the sunset or people pass by. Because our stay was during COVID it was great to have such a nice place to hangout . As always the food at the local resturants was great (Hodads, Mikes Tacos, Surf Rider Pizza, Filippis in Little Italy and Extraordinary Desserts) Looking forward to next time! Thank you!

Beach Getaway
This property is easy to access and beautiful. I love the location and the set up of the rooms. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen is beautiful. I love the stove. I do have a few minor things.... the trash outside was full when we arrived on a Monday (trash day was Monday morning) so we had a ton of flies near the entrance. Secondly the house has a lot of delivery trucks that roll of super close and are very loud. I would recommend bringing ear plugs and sleep aids. Overall, it was worth the money. We had a blast! My kids had an amazing time daily because we walked to dog beach, the tide pools and the ice cream shop.

Chili cook off 2019
For the 26 years my husband and his family have been attending the ocean beach street fair and chili cook off. As we have a large family, hotels are just to small and this property right next to the hotel was amazing!!! There were plenty of beds and towels for us all. Plus there was room to stretch out. We will definitely will be booking this property in the future. Signed the Keene family

Great location. Just what we were expecting.
We did have some items missing but one email took care of that. The only criticism we had was that walking barefoot inside left your feet bottoms black. Otherwise you can expect to see us back.
