Ocean close apartment UnitB

KileeRating, 5 stars1 month ago
My husband and I enjoyed our stay! It was such a cute little beach house. Small home but the layout and lack of clutter made it feel bigger and functional. It was the perfect location for easily walking to the beach or dining near the pier. We would definitely stay again!

Steps from the SAND private suite on Peninsula

EmilyRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Will was a very responsive host and had great recommendations for the area. Just be aware that since this is an attached space to the next-door neighbors, the sound from upstairs is a bit prominent like footsteps/loud sound. Couple of knick knacks like the shower door and fridge door were to be fixed, but that was acknowledged to be repaired. Otherwise, I would love to stay here again.

Venice Canals Sanctuary

PaulaRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We stayed in a cottage on the Venice canals 35 years ago, loved the vibe and location, and have always wanted to visit again. It is every bit as charming as I remembered. The great restaurants and shops along Abbot Kinney are within walking distance, as is the beach. Our favorite activity while there was walking around the canals. The combination of interesting architecture, lush gardens, and abundant wildlife are such a treat.

RENOVATED Bungalow Steps to Beach, Shops & Dining

SamanthaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
I had an amazing stay at this property! The location is absolutely perfect, just a short walk to the beach, shops, and a great selection of restaurants. The space itself was spotless and beautifully maintained. Everything felt fresh and inviting from the moment I arrived. The beds were incredibly comfortable, which made it so easy to relax and get a great night’s sleep after a day of exploring. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for the perfect beach getaway!

Beach House 2 King Suites+Sleeper, Steps to Sand

Cindy And SteveRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Loved the location on the peninsula. We were able to walk to the beach, to restaurants and really enjoyed being able to use the rooftop deck. Beds were super comfortable and the place was very clean and had everything we needed for our stay. It was very helpful also to have the garage for our car and e-bikes since parking is such a challenge in that area. Appreciated our host being available for any questions on arrival and throughout our stay. Hope to visit again!

Beachfront Home, Private SandyYard Views Walkable

HollyRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We rented this house to spend time with our grown children and grandkids. It was amazing! Better than any words can describe. We had plenty of room and the kids (3 under 3) loved the grass! Beds were super comfy and loved going to sleep every night to the sound of the waves crashing. This house had everything we needed and more. We just brought our clothes and food. We all decided this needs to be a new tradition for our family and will return soon. 10 out 10

Outstanding Ocean Oasis ❊ Modern, Family Fun Home

SravanthiRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We had a wonderful stay at this kid-friendly Airbnb! The house was thoughtfully equipped with everything we needed for a smooth and fun trip with little ones — beach toys, a stroller, and even outdoor mini golf! It made our park visits and beach days so much easier and more enjoyable. The home itself was beautifully decorated and perfectly matched our taste — we honestly joked that we wished we could live there! Every detail added to the comfort and charm of our stay. The host was incredibly helpful and accommodating of our needs, and the location was ideal — close to all the San Diego attractions we had planned to visit. This was one of our best Airbnb experiences, and we’ll definitely be coming back! Highly recommend for families visiting San Diego.

Teresahastings17@Bellsouth.NetRating, 5 stars6 days ago
Anthony was very prompt in responding to any questions we had. He accommodated our specific needs and was helpful with last minute inquiries. Perfect location with spacious, but welcoming environment. Home was stocked with all basic needs so you didn’t immediately need to run out to buy necessities. We also appreciated the art work and decor that isn’t normally in a rental. Loved the fireplace, fire pit, and outdoor entertainment garage. I enjoyed the rooftop desk the most, while the family spread out to the other areas. Wonderful family home with all sad to leave.

Great stay. Plenty of room for a family of four. Very clean with everything you could need. We spend a lot of time enjoying the roof top view. Loved the convenience of the beach toys locker.

Short Steps to Beach Quiet 2 Bed 2 Bath Condo

JennyRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Dalma’s place was wonderful for our family. It was private and had a fenced in shared backyard space, which was great for our little kids. She had wonderful extras such as the beach items, coffee options for the morning, kids toys and books, and plenty of blankets if needed when it cooled off at night. Beach and restaurants were close within walking distance. We would definitely stay here again!

Beach condo feels like tropical cottage getaway!

ChristineRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Joseph is a great host and the place truly is a tropical paradise with easy access to the beach & downtown Oceanside in walking distance (.5 mi). The property does feel like a hotel but having an “adults only” hot tub is nice to get away from children if you’re wanting that. My friends and I walked to local restaurants and coffee shops each day. The place is very clean and he’s got pretty much everything you could need include extra fans and sound machines if you need some white noise to sleep, which I do so I was pleasantly surprised! Will stay here again if I’m ever in the area.

Ocean Views from Patio on the Pacific!

NealRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Ms.Sandy provided a very welcoming AirBnB rental to relax and decompress in. From her initial inactions, she was extremely helpful with detailed instructions and helpful suggestions. As a bonus, the HOA also offered recommendations on places locally to dine at and entertainment. It’s the combination of these two that make for an enjoyable experience. Ms. Sandy’s place is clean and features 2 smart tvs for your entertainment pleasure. Just remember to log out of your streaming service before checking out. If you need a bit of fresh air, the beach is close by, along with the harbor with eateries and entertainment. Or just walk around the compound and enjoy the various water features and koi pond. For you golfers, bring your putter and enjoy the putting green. There’s also a swimming pool and gym, however the beach is just minutes away. You can definitely put your trust in Ms. Sandy for a very enjoyable experience.
