The neighbors and locals were friendly. The key takeaways are the 5min drive to SeaWorld and Sunsetcliffs, downtown OB Newport Ave, Wednesday farmers market and the beach within walking distance. Highly recommend renting this property for your family vacation. We will be returning.

We initially tried to book this thru VRBO but the owner reached out and recommended booking through…read morethe website to save us some $ on booking 2 of the 4 units. She was nice, professional and replied quickly to the booking. Once COVID hit we communicated and discussed a refund OR rescheduling for another date since the beaches and local attractions were all closed. She has since ghosted us completely. 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.

What a great rental and so close to the beach. I stayed there with my family for five nights and…read morehad a great time. Mike (the owner) could not have been nicer. The unit is furnished well and was very comfortable. We were within walking distance (5 minutes) of everything in Ocean Beach. The price was very good! Ocean Beach is like Berkeley meets the ocean- lots of 60's style stores and restaurants (read: thrift stores, head shops and typical open air bars and eating establishments). Great seaside town with lots of character. I would stay here again in a heartbeat! Thanks, Mike!

I can't write a review for this particular location but we just finished a rental with the…read moreOBBungalow.com folks for their 2 bdrm home in Pacific Beach. Check out their web site to see three great beach house options in the San Diego area. All are about 1.5 blocks from a beach. The web site had all the info we were looking for including utube videos of the property. Prices are reasonable for a small house near the beach, they even accept dogs! The owners were great to deal with on-line and by phone. We chose the Pacific Beach rental for this trip because we needed 2 bdrms, the OB locations are 1 bdrms. We loved the Pacific Beach bungalow (with dedicated parking in the driveway). It was super clean, cozy, nicely updated and decorated with a large back yard. Kitchen was more than adequate and had everything we needed. Cable TV in living room and master bdrm, plus free wifi, the house had it all. The one car garage is used to store equipment for your use like bikes, beach chairs, boogie boards, children's beach toys, even a washer/dryer unit. Short walk to the beach, shops, restaurants... If the two rentals homes in Ocean Beach are as great as this one you can't go wrong. We really enjoyed ourselves and hope to plan a return visit, perhaps to the OB Bahamas Bungalow with our dog since that location is near the dog beach. Can definitely recommend OBBungalows.

The house was very well decorated but very small. The was no counter space in the bathroom. The…read moreTV is very old and small and needs to be updated. The bed is small and needs to be updated to a king size bed. There needs to be a light in the back yard so it can be used in the evenings. Because the house is so close to the beach, parking near the house is almost impossible. The house is directly in the flight path of the commercials flights from the San Diego International Airport and the noise starts at 6 am and goes on all day and night. The noise is so loud it will wake you up. The gardner showed up at 7:30 am on our first day there and proceeded to mow and weed eat the yard. We felt this was very rude and it was a good thing our 3 dogs were not in the back yard when they showed up. The house is very close to the beach which is very nice.

My family and I just stayed here while visiting San Diego for the Marine Corps graduation and we…read moreloved our stay at Chateau Jolie! The house is beautifully decorated, bright and colorful, with a charming cottage feel. A few of my favorite things: - The owner was able to provide a highchair and pack n play for my child! - The house is equipped with double paned glass windows, which very effectively mask the noise from the airport. - The bathroom was well stocked with plenty of fresh towels (more than enough for our family of 9) and things we may have forgotten. - The rooms had a few cool features, including vibrating beanbag chairs, vintage video games, and a great supply of board games, dvds and books! Definitely would recommend this place.

We arrived to a nice welcome gift. The apartment has everything - from the usual items in the kitchen to nice to have (usually not provided) bathroom supplies. So glad there was a phone charger cause I left mine at home! The owner, Kim even had several games in the "game cabinet" that were very handy when we had family visits. The bed was very comfortable - plenty of pillows and blankets. Umbrella, surf boards, binoculars, portable heater - name it, it's there! Or Kim will bring it. She even texted me if we needed an extra umbrella when rain was predicted that day. When we had questions, Kim's response was almost immediate. She sent us lots of ideas of places to visit and yummy restaurants in the area. There was nothing we needed that were not available in this apartment. The bird sanctuary nearby was a nice place to just sit at the bench and look at birds or a nice walk. Kim is a perfect host. Thank you Kim. We truly enjoyed our stay - and highly recommend this place.

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

Very low-key condo complex built right above the bluffs over-looking Ocean Beach. I found it when I…read morewas riding my bike & went to check it out. The units have fabulous views & it appears to have been remodeled from a regular house into a condo. I am told that some people rent a place there all year long and other units are set aside for seasonal rentals. Cabo Santa Cruz is somewhat mysterious since I am having a hard time finding out it's phone number and web address. Still, if you are looking for a awesome spot to kick back at, with a small pocket beach down among the cliffs right below you, this is a good place. One of the vacation rental websites had this to say about the Cabo condos: "Cabo Santa Cruz Description: Cabo Santa Cruz is an oceanfront condominium situated in the eclectic surroundings of Ocean Beach. With two beaches just steps away and exciting Newport Street only a short walk, this property is definitely one of the best places to stay when you visit San Diego. Within the gated complex you will find a laundry facility, barbeque and outdoor lounge area, and on site management to help with your every need. Spoil yourself with beachfront luxury and choose the ultimate accommodations in San Diego." Would not really call it luxurious and the gate seems like a small fence around the property. But who am I to spoil the fun here?

I really appreciated the kitchen - fully equiped with everything you could want if you love to cook! We did a mix of both delivery (super easy, tons of amazing restaurants near the place), and cooking (again, well stocked kitchen along with a clean BBQ right outside). Loved that we could walk to the beach and the bay. My kids loved the bunk room and the balcony. Chairs/umbrellas/toys were in the garage, which was great as we came from out of town. The place is clearly maintained with a high regard to cleanliness and design - it looks recently updated. We will definitely be back soon, as I'd love to stay during the summer! Oh, and the beds were so comfortable!!
