Austen and Dani were so accommodating and welcoming, and took care of all of our needs quickly and completely. Denise, the owner, is so quick to respond to any email communication, and so very helpful. Ocean Beach, fondly known as "OB" offers so much, from Sunset Cliffs, shopping, easy walking, and such beauty. We love finding dinner at the Wednesday evening Farmers' Market, walking two blocks to the ocean from our cottage, and shopping downtown on Newport Avenue. It's great, not to mention unusual, to have a safe and secure parking spot off street, but BHC offers just that. And 20-30 minutes away by car: San Diego Zoo, Balboa Park, Coronado Island, Torrey Pines, Shelter Island, Little Italy, Gaslamp District, and more. We have already booked for next year!

Very comfy sleeping and living areas, with a killer view of beach and ocean; great people-watching ops, too.

I wanted something different; no Marriott or stuffy hotel, so I went onto vrbo.com (Vacation Rentals By Owner) and immediately fell in love with The Brighton Beach Bungalows. The reservation process was very easy; email exchange followed by a phone call, and working with Laurie and Ian was incredibly easy. They are a lovely married couple who own the two rental homes, appropriately named the "Sun" and "Surf" bungalows. Upon arrival, we were excited to see that we were about a block off of Ocean Beach, had our own garage (which is very necessary on the busy block), there were 5 or 6 cruisers for us to ride around on, boogie boards, beach chairs, beach towels, a beach blanket... and even a shower outside in the yard area. Once inside, the same attention to detail carried all through the house. Wifi, two TV's, every type of dish or cooking item you could ever need, ample towels, a plush, comfortable couch and incredibly comfortable bed. Everything we needed was right there for us. Even on last minute booking, the bungalows are perfectly reasonable cost wise, and the ability to cook and entertain without having to eat out every meal was fabulous. This was the perfect place to stay, and I will never stay anywhere else in San Diego again!!

She was nice, professional and replied quickly to the booking.

And will not reply to VMs or emails to discuss other dates or a refund. If you plan on booking, I'd highly recommend sticking with VRBO or AirBnB so you have an intermediary.

Great seaside town with lots of character. I would stay here again in a heartbeat! Thanks, Mike!
