Great place! Walkable to the beach and very clean! I’d stay here again.

So close to the beach and good food! We had the most perfect stay and will definitely be back. Perfect for an extended stay as the kitchen is fully stocked with essentials for cooking.

Beach In Beach Out
We had a great time at this AirBNB, the host even accommodated our request to stay an extra two days! The location is perfect, beautiful views! Thanks again!

2bed 2bath Steps to the Sand in Mission Beach and
This is such a fantastic location! You can see the bay from the patio & so close to the beach!! We walked or Ubered everywhere… which was cheap 🙂 Lots of natural light with all the windows & the temp inside was perfect with the fans provided. Love the live plants inside too 🪴 .. so homey, comfy & clean. We had such a great time 🌊☀️🏖️

This lovely property is directly on the beach and strand. We watched dolphins offshore from the patio door. The kitchen was well stocked. The furniture and beds were beachy and comfortable. The beach was beautiful for walking and swimming.

Modern & Relaxing Get-away | 1BR w/ Full Kitchen
It was a great experience from the minute we checked in to checking out. would highly recommend. best, clean and just as expected.

21-3A: Downtown Adjacent Apt w/views from balcony
Kevin's place was quiet and peaceful . It's a little smaller than I thought, but it was clear that Kevin put a lot of care into keeping the place clean and comfortable.

Clean, Private, Quiet, Centrally Located Apartment
We had a great stay for a trip that was both business (attending a conference in the convention center part of town) and a few days leisure. The apartment is hidden away from the main street and surrounded by other beautiful homes. You are close to the airport, so you will hear aircraft from time to time, but this is SD, you hear fighter jets too! It is part of the fabric of the city! Being walkable to the tram/train network meant we could commute to the conference and not have to pay for parking and there are plenty of bars and restaurants within walking distance or a short drive to old town.

Private Living: 3 Bed/2Bath, Pool, Serene Locale
this spot was perfect for my family and i. dave greeted us immediately upon pulling in, showed us around and brought us down some beers to welcome us. they also had snacks for us to enjoy and supplied us with absolutely everything we needed for our time spent there to include tea and coffee. the outside of the property is gorgeous with it’s foliage and the amazing view. would stay here again!

Luxury Apartment in upscale area
Such a lovely and comfortable apartment. The kitchen was well equipped for our needs, we cooked several meals. The neighborhood is pleasant and quiet. Plenty of shopping and restaurants nearby. About 30 mins to san diego downtown and airport. Similar price to a hotel room and 4x the space. The shower is grand! Hosts were lovely. Thank you John and Laura.

1 Block to Mission Bay in Pacific Beach, 1 bedroom
The place is perfect for two people. I loved all the natural light in the place. It's only a 1 block walk to the bay and the boardwalk and from there you can follow the boardwalk to the beach. We would stay here again for sure.

Apt in the heart of North Park
Decided to take a small winter getaway in San Diego and this place was absolutely perfect for it. It was in a wonderful walkable and quiet neighborhood with lots to do around. Lovely and comfortable space with everything that you need. It was exactly what we needed! I can’t wait to come back and stay here again.

Private Point Loma retreat
This is our second visit at this guesthouse. We enjoyed it and hope to return again.
Apartment rentals with a hot tub

"10 min away from everything"
Place was very nice and worked well for us. Definitely keeping in mind for future visits.

Cute, clean private studio. Close to the beach!
This place was great. Amazing location right off the 5, clean and quiet! Dave was a wonderful host, communicative, kind, and made check-in and out a breeze. The Cardiff Seaside Market is perfect for grabbing lunch for the beach. Thank you so much! See you next time!

Hot Tub Bungalow-Belmont Park
We loved our stay in Mission Beach! Perfect for both relaxing and having fun on the boardwalk. The private hot tub was a great amenity to come home to every night in February, when the ocean is still too cold to swim in. The home is tucked away in a cute alley of beach houses and relatively private for being in such a bustling area. We would love to stay again!

La Jolla Windansea Paradise Two
Great location. It's near a surfer beach, but if you're comfy with the ocean, it's a great hang. Also, within about 10m of the main La Jolla Beach which is superb. Cy has all your needs for a great beach stay: boogie board, umbrella, towels, chairs, sand mat, toys. Close location to some decent food. Cy communicates quickly and thoroughly, but otherwise stays out of your way. Place was very clean with a cool shower head. Neighbors in the apartment were very friendly as well. Would absolutely recommend for a beach stay.

Sweet Sea
Bryan’s space was beautifully updated, full of high end features, and in a wonderful area of San Diego, close to the beach and lots of local neighborhood restaurants. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and appreciated Bryan’s prompt responsiveness, friendliness, and flexibility. We highly recommend it and would definitely stay here again.

Hot Tub, New 2 Bedroom Park Blvd Condo
We loved our stay. Everything was clean and comfy! Great neighborhood and restaurants within walking distance. We will be back!

Hidden Gem with Hot Tub and Parking - 4 Guests
Adam was an absolute lifesaver. After being left stranded by another host, I sent a last-minute request and he responded right away with kindness and professionalism. The home was immaculate, with so many thoughtful and charming touches that made me feel right at home. The space was quiet, the water pressure and temperature were perfect, and everything was just as described. There was a minor issue with a guest accidentally taking my parking spot, but Adam resolved it immediately—he was truly on top of everything. This stay turned what could’ve been a stressful night into a peaceful and welcoming experience. I’d absolutely stay here again and highly recommend booking with Adam !

Stunning SD Zen Villa 3Tubs Parking AC Rain Shower
I just stayed at Ricardo’s house for my 35th birthday. This was one of the best, kindest, responsive hosts I have ever had the pleasure of communicating with. The house is amazing. The bathroom is giant and has a jet spa tub inside the shower. The outdoor area is incredible and feels like you are in an oasis. There were plenty of random items provided. Utensils, plates and misc spices for cooking. I didn’t get a chance to use the BBQ but the outside kitchen is amazing and incredibly well stocked and can host any event you might have. Oh yeah washer dryer for your own use is extremely convenient. I am moving from San Diego to LA so this was a life saver too. I added a last minute guest to stay with me and Ricardo had no problems which made my stay even more epic. Thanks again Ricardo and I will be back to rent from you when I am traveling on business to San Diego. Last word to anyone thinking about booking is to not hesitate and enjoy this amazing place because I sure did!!
