Gorgeous Zen Cottage with Ocean Views
I can’t say enough about this cottage. Not only was the place itself beautiful and charming, but the location!!! You can’t beat it!! Stop scrolling and book it!

Crown Point Gem with Salt Water Pool
Great space, good location 15 minutes from most attractions. Pool was great

La Jolla Shores redwood beach cottage
We fell in love with this quintessential La Jolla beach bungalow, and felt immediately at home. We especially appreciated family dinners in the spacious private backyard, and walking to the beach, restaurants, and playground. Chip and Elise were perfect hosts and always very responsive. We had an amazing stay and are already planning a return trip!

Dragonfly Cottage - In the Heart of San Diego
We had a great stay at this apartment. The kids and I especially loved the hot tub, which was a fun and relaxing way to wind down each evening. I didn’t get a chance to try the sauna, but it’s a nice extra touch. The apartment was clean and comfortable, and the kitchen was well-equipped. I also appreciated that the owners provided tea and coffee for their guests. While the apartment is technically suitable for more, I’d recommend it for no more than two people, as the sofa bed wasn’t the most comfortable for sleeping. The location was excellent, and we had no trouble finding parking right in front of the house. Finally, the host was very responsive and attentive. Overall, I would highly recommend this place.

2 BED/1 BA Coastal Haven in SD
My family loved this place! It is walking distance to the beach, coffee shops, eateries and convenience stores. You'll get used to the airplanes flying overhead every 20 minutes (and they don't fly after about 11 pm, so that's nice). Check in, and out, was super easy. We're already planning on coming back for summer!!!!

Sunset Paradise w/ocean view- on sale this week!
What can I say, my wife and I had a great trip and a big reason is because of this house. Perfect for a day and even better for longer than that. So close to the beach and the hot tub was perfect for those chilly mornings/evenings. Thank you so much and we will be back for sure!!

2BR Carlsbad Home Near Beach w/Shared Pool & Spa
This house was adorable, clean and in a great location. If it’s going to be hot while you stay, the house does get very warm in the late afternoon and takes a while to cool back down when the sun goes down. Kitchen was well stocked for cooking. There were plenty of beach towels and extra towels. We had a great experience and would stay again given the opportunity.

LOFT: Detached Cottage with Patio
We stayed a week and this small house had everything two people needed for a very pleasant stay. It is very comfortable, relaxed, but also clean and tidy. There were many small touches that made it special. Location put you right in the midst of coffee shops and restaurants.

Family and Pet Friendly Beach Bungalow
Great place right in the heart of a quiet Pacific Beach neighborhood. Two bedrooms with comfortable queen beds, a nice-sized living room and modern kitchen. The washer/dryer was also very convenient. We also enjoyed sitting at the outdoor table on a couple of occasions that's near the alleyway. The location is very convenient, just a ~10 minute walk down to Trader Joes and the main drag in PB. Great place and a great value.

Charming Cottage: Parking, Bikes & Walk to Sand!
My wife, 2-year old daughter, and I stayed here for an extended weekend and had a great time. Perfect location near Belmont Park and close enough to walk to Pacific Beach. We would definitely stay here again.

Cozy 1br Cottage in Trendy South Park
Great spot for 1 or 2 people. Quiet and very close to shops and restaurants of south park.

Peaceful & Cheerful 3bd in Sunny Pacific Beach, CA
Perfect little home base while visiting SD! Would definitely recommend.

Charming coastal cottage Dogs free, 3 blocks ocean
Great experience, great location. It's on a main street so it's busy with traffic, at times. Not a bad thing, but just something to point out. The front is private and gated from the traffic by a beautiful and inviting area to lounge and hang out with our pups. Lovely home with all that we needed during our stay. Great host and super responsive! Would love to stay again!

Dog friendly California Cottage near SDSU
Victor was an outstanding host. I loved the cottage and its beautiful surroundings. I was on an extended work trip and brought my dog along, and the hospitality was exceptional throughout my entire stay. My dog enjoyed the enclosed backyard and felt very safe. I also appreciated the Brita pitcher in the refrigerator. I highly recommend this Airbnb! Happy travels! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Private cozy cottage
We have stayed with Lisa multiple times in the past year. It’s like a home away from home. Very easy to get to and convenient to visiting friends and family. Very quiet neighborhood and cozy place inside.

We stayed here to celebrate my birthday and enjoyed our stay! Location was very close by many coffee shops and food which was nice. The cottage was well furnished and clean! Jordy was very proactive and ensured our stay was good.

Private Beach Getaway w/ Ocean Views!
I found it refreshing that there wasn't a request for cleaning as a guest on top of a cleaning fee charge. Place was great overall and in a convenient location! Thanks Matt.

Point Loma Beachy Cottage
I booked Robert's place as it was close to a wedding venue we were coming into town for. The location was perfect and close to so many great places. The house was perfect with all the amenities we needed and more. I love the personal touch of snacks and a fridge full of a variety of drinks. The bed was very comfortable and the entire place was very clean. He also had a steamer which made it nice to touch up my husband's suit and my dress. I could go on and on about what a great stay this was. I would 100% book his place again when coming back to San Diego.

Charming Encinitas Beach Cottage- ocean views!
Lauri's house was a delight to stay in. my family and I were so happy the entire stay. The home is peaceful, private, walkable, and has access to phenomenal restaurants from formal to relaxed and kid friendly. and the beaches are stunning. We hope to stay again some day.

Walk to Beach & Village-AC-King Beds
We could not have had a better experience. The cottage is so charming and had everything we needed. It is right near the beach and an easy walk into Carlsbad Village. Cannot wait to stay there again!

Classic PB Surf Cottage
I had an extended stay at Daniel’s place and had a great time. The place could not be in a more perfect spot close to everything you could want to do. It was the perfect California experience. Daniel was also responsive and provided great recommendations. Overall this was an awesome time!
