Betty's Bungalow is a wonderful RBO! It was clean upon arrival, the bed was super comfy, and you can't beat the location. The backyard was great for morning coffee and for my dog. The fact that it has a driveway is amazing because street parking is a nightmare. It was the perfect place for me and my dog to get away for a Bday weekend. The only downside (and the host can't help this) is the fact that the street is so busy. It's a direct shot to the beach so everyone is parking along it and there is a lot of traffic. Even with that being said, I would book here again!

Great location - adorable house!

We had a wonderful time staying in this adorable bungalow. It's close to everything - the beach, great restaurants and bars, shopping, Trader Joe's and Sprouts... anything you could need! The house is comfortable and cozy. It seems to have been updated since the photos were taken. There was some new, cute furniture and decor that made it feel more modern. We would definitely stay here again!

This house was perfect for our family of four (plus puppy). Close to a ton of restaurants, literally around the corner from Sprouts, less than a ten minute walk to the beach, and within a 20 minute drive, so many different activities!! The house is a little older, which adds to it's charm and the fall breeze goes through wonderfully!! The property manager(s) are easy to contact and keep in touch to make sure things are going well.

Guestbook Comment

We enjoyed our stay immensely. The house was clean and generally well maintained and although we did have one minor maintanence issue, when we reported it, Nancy was very responsivie and took care of it immediately. I enjoyed taking daily walks from the house to the beach and along the seashore. The house is very conveniently located with Trader Joes and Henry's Market Place less than a block away, and it was also within walking distance to several good restaurants, including Nicks Seafood. We liked the fact that it was a central location for trips to Seaworld, the San Diego Zoo and the Wild Animal Park. We would highly recommend it and would gladly return for our next vacation.

Great location fun places nearby

We enjoyed our stay very much. The house was very clean and freshly painted...for an older house. The double sized bunk beds were very firm and “jiggly” for our teenagers. However, the nice surprise was a very comfortable Lazyboy queen pullout sofa bed in the living room which saved us. Pillows and bedding was very well equipped. Everything worked well. The bathroom door needs some WD 40 because the hinges sqeaked so load at night it woke up the light sleepers in our group (easy fix). Overall, this was a very cute place in a great location with a wonderful grocery store in Sprouts just around the corner. We would definitely recommend and stay here again ourselves.

Stayed twice ..will not again

This is our second stay at Bettys Beach Bungalow. Checkin was 3pm...maid still there at 4:15, delayed our checkin. Happened last time too. Many broken or non functional items, celing fans, washing machine didnt work, oven takes twice as long to bake and front right burner not working. Hot water DANGEROUSLY HOT EXTREMELY bright at night. Neighbors lights shine right into bedrooms and since no AC Cant hang shades over Windows. Woken multiple times by loud cars and screamjng fights at 2am. Big party neighborhood. Laura at Nancys vacation rentals was EXTREMELY helpful but none of issues resolved during our stay. Would use Nancys again but NOT THIS PROPERTY. .

Great Little House in SD

Everything that is in the control of the property management company is done excellently. House was clean, plenty of linens, fans, supplies, etc. Communication was above and beyond. We felt well taken care of and looked after during our stay. They even gave us a number to text to make it easier to communicate. Location was great. Easy walk to sprouts for groceries (literally behind the house. I felt goofy when I drove to it). Great restaurants and coffee shops all within walking distance too. Ocean and bay are both walkable but a little far with wagon and beach gear. On our tired days we just drove (but beware parking is difficult every where). Overall a great, comfy stay, away from the downtown SD area which kept things mostly quiet. We would stay here again and will definitely book with Nancy's Vacation Rentals when we're in the area again. 5 star property management company. Couple things of note: * the neighbors enjoy having parties. They were over by about 11 each night so we slept fine (and the fans generally blocked out noise) but some nights were harder to get kiddos to sleep than others. * there is a green trash can in front of the property that is used by everyone as a general purpose trash can even though it's organic matter only. We didn't put anything in it and it was overflowing when we got there. The trash company didn't take it either. Use the trash cans out the back of the property.

Great location but needs update

First and foremost - we have appreciated the prompt attention to all our correspondences. Everyone has been kind and attentive and easy to work with - they did a fabulous job of attending to costumer service Unfortunately.... There was a mildew oder in one of the rooms with visible mold on the wall that never completely resolved enough to feel comfortable sleeping in that room - even after trial of mold blocking agent and use of a fan to dry it out - ultimately, this meant that the 2 bedroom home became a 1 bedroom home - resulting in 4 adults and 1 infant uncomfortably crowded together. Summary - This home might have worked if the 2nd room was usable - otherwise - it's more likely a home where people just come to sleep after being out and about in the area. We frequent PB and have rented multiple times - this is our first less then ideal experience. I do not recommend Betty's beach rental - it is in desperate need of t A more thorough cleaning, updating and repair

If this house were for sale, I would have bought it! Adorable, great back patio, walk everywhere!

No issues at all renting. Loved the house. Loved the proximity to all that PB has to offer. My only recommendation is the drawers in the kitchen need a deep clean as does the laundry room and the dishwasher needs to be replaced as it is not stable.
