Stay at the beach to take my mind off work

Excellent property and location at OB. Far enough from the main strip to be peaceful, close enough to be convenient. Host was incredible and very responsive. I stayed here for a work trip and had significant issues with the wifi =( If you are looking to detach and enjoy the beach, this will be a great stay for you!

Great OB stay!

The apartment itself is great! Very clean, spacious and more than enough as far as amenities are concerned. We were very comfortable and impressed! Communication with the owner and prop manager was great as well, both were very responsive, helpful, and polite. The only downfall is the parking is horrible, but that can be typical for a beach town.

Great beach location

This was a clean, cozy little place to stay by the beach. It's proximity to the beach, shops and restaurants was exactly what we were looking for. Also, it was not far to the San Diego Zoo and museums. Check in was easy and the owner was very responsive with questions. We will definitely check this place out again when we are in San Diego.

So close to the beach.

We were so pleased as to how close the property was to the beach. It was just what we were looking for. The walkable restaurant options were a big plus as parking seemed limited in some areas during certain times of the day. It was a bit noisy at times with the amount of traffic but that's an uncontrollable variable. It's a popular beach with lots of visitors, so it made sense there would be lots of traffic. We were fortunate enough to arrive on the day when the Farmer's Market was going on and it was amazing to see all the different vendors and enjoy the yummy food. We kept the windows open most of the time we were there to enjoy the ocean breeze. The kitchen was well supplied with all the necessities. Comfy beds and plenty of linens and towels. My son loved playing the board games. Easy check in. Meiluen was prompt in responses and very helpful when giving us the details about our stay, as well as suggestions of some great spots to check out. She clearly wants her guests to not only enjoy their stay, but get the best out of their stay. She's a great host.

Clean, comfortable place close to the beach

This apartment was very clean, comfortable, had everything we needed (even beach chairs!) and was perfect for our group of kids and adults. It is also located right between a market and a laundromat which was convenient. It is nicely decorated and the owner/manager is very prompt and friendly to communicate with. We'll be back!

Weekend Get Away

My wife and I came down to SD for a long weekend to celebrate her birthday and stayed at the condo in OB. We found that the condo exceeded expectations and had an amazing location being only 1 block from OB. The host was very attentive and made us feel comfortable. Would definitely recommend and will be interested in staying here again in the future.

Don’t stay here!

Street parking if you’re lucky enough to find a spot! Very noisy even with windows closed! No outdoor light which is a safety issue considering the people that walk around at night. Property manager is extremely picky and will charge you extra for sand or dog hair on the floor! I’m currently disputing an extra 100 charge for candles and dirty towels which I have no idea what they are referring to. I left the place cleaner than I found it; the property manager obviously running a scam!

Nice place, lots of rules, no parking

Overall, the property was nicely maintained and stocked with necessary hardware. Wifi was fast. TV channels don't include national news, so bring a tablet to watch online. The amount of rules listed by the owner was irritating since these were not agreed to before signing up. Simplify this list to: "Smoking, excessive sand, or pet hair will result in a separate cleaning fee." Also, using the word "negligence" when referring to guests' potential behavior is inappropriate in a hospitality setting. (Though, I dont know if this is common for Californian VRBOs.)
