ElyceRating, 5 stars1 week ago

Alyssa was the perfect host. She was easy to communicate with and was flexible on check in and check out. She brought an iron right away when I asked if there was one in the apartment. Her place was clean and perfect with tons of towels and blankets available. The bed was also super comfortable. I highly recommend this space if you are looking to stay in OB.

1 Block to Beach, Dog Friendly, Oceanfront Patio!

NikkoRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago

Georgie’s airbnb is beautiful and in a great location in Ocean Beach. There’s plenty to do nearby and easy to walk to. We had some trouble sleeping due to noise from airplanes, but this has less to do with Georgie’s Airbnb specifically and more to do with the proximity to the airport.

New Whale Cottage Amazing Ocean Views

KrisRating, 5 stars1 week ago

Absolutely exceptional — the best Airbnb we’ve ever stayed at. The photos are stunning, but somehow the place is even better in person. The home was spotless, beautifully designed, and full of thoughtful touches — we were especially grateful for the cozy robes and the oat milk creamer in the fridge! The kitchen is fully stocked! We loved waking up and falling asleep to the breathtaking view — both the daytime and nighttime views are incredible. Using the telescope was such a fun bonus! Like other reviewers, we spent a lot of time on the patio, and the surprise highlight was learning about the green parrots of Ocean Beach. We heard and saw them every morning — magical! The location is perfect, too. We walked easily to downtown OB and loved being part of such a gorgeous, welcoming community. The beds were super comfortable the linens were soft, and the bathroom felt spa-like. Anna truly thought of everything, including all the beach gear. Thank you Anna for sharing your home!
