Pet-friendly vacation rentals in East County, San Diego

Erik was very accommodating. I will admit there was so much do to in the area that we didn’t spend much time at the house aside from sleep. The area is amazing and has tons of coffee shops, bars, and restaurants to keep you moving . The beach is an easy walk unless you want to bring a lot of stuff and hang all day. Then I would suggest driving or have a wagon.

Great place to stay for easy access to the zoo and everything Balboa park. Worked great for our family of 4

We enjoyed our staycation in San Diego, thanks to our beautiful home away from home at Jason’s Air BnB unit. The beach is within walking distance from the house and there are plenty of good restaurants to go to nearby. We appreciate that Jason’s place is dog-friendly as the neighborhood is very dog friendly. There are some good dog-friendly restaurants within walking distance and the dog beach in San Diego is within walking distance too. It’s a perfect place to have a staycation with family and furbabies. Thank you Jason and Keri for all the clear instructions about the house that it made our stay smooth sailing! Definitely booking again if we ever need a staycation in SD in the future.

Great spot. Super cool property within minutes from the heart of Carlsbad. The property was perfect for my two small pups; very secure. The accommodations met my needs perfectly. I look forward to reserving this location every time I visit the Carlsbad area. Jim was excellent host.

Excellent option, and location can't be beat especially if traveling with a dog that loves Dog Beaches. For being close to DT San Diego and the neighborhood being under a flight pattern it's surprisingly peaceful. Overall, great choice for a couple w/ dog.

Really nice place to stay!

Great place! The location is perfect.

We really enjoyed our stay. The home was very comfortable and included ceiling fans, an A/C unit, and comfy furniture and beds. It well-stocked, including an ironing board, iron, games, beach towels, and even an insulated bag for our picnic lunch on the beach. We loved the secluded and covered patio and appreciated the driveway parking space. The hosts were very friendly and helpful. They even showed us the blooming cactus that only blooms at night. We would definitely stay there again. This is the kind of place a diehard optimist would imagine, in their dreams, an AirBnB to be.

Perfect house for a weekend getaway of grilling and hanging out by the pool! Host & Co-host were very responsive! Lots of pool toys and floats perfect for adults and kids!

I really enjoyed my time spent there. Not only the scenery was nice, but it was also quiet and peaceful. I also especially appreciated Jeffery’s hospitality and kindness and I would definitely recommend going back!

Ann was a Amazing Host. Her home is beautiful and comfortable. The back yard Deck was nice & Pool looks inviting. Next time am in the area ill be checking in with Ann :) Thank you

This was one of my favorite AirBNBs so far. The location is perfect. Close to downtown San Diego and the airport, but far enough away for privacy and peace. The views were amazing. The house was decorated with amazing style. I felt truly relaxed and in vacation while there. The host gives easy and clear instructions that made the whole process a breeze.

Our family had a wonderful stay at Bruce's place for our daughter's graduation from SDSU. The home was ideal in every way! We enjoyed the game rooms, bbq grills, off street parking, jacuzzi, pool, sauna, karaoke sound system, televisions in every room, and plenty of space to entertain. Easy drive to SDSU, restaurants and supermarkets. Bruce is an excellent host.

We had a great stay at Tigg’s place. It was easy to get around, very walkable to get food or go to the beach. The studio had everything we needed. Would stay here again. Highly recommend!

This was our second time staying at this home in San Antonio Del Mar w/our pup. Private safe gated community w/beach access. Only 10min drive to downtown Rosarito. Very spacious with an ocean view & jacuzzi. Joel is an excellent host! Definitely recommend & look forward to staying again!

The pool was great! I wish the kitchen had had a few more supplies/necessities -- but other than that, everything was lovely!

We have stayed with Isabella several times. She is a wonderful host. The house is located in a lovely walkable neighborhood. Feel very safe staying there. The neighbors are friendly and we feel very welcome staying there. Lots of local restaurants and stores are within walking distance. The San Diego zoo and balboa park are within 10 minutes driving distance. What we love the most about the house is the beautiful backyard. It has very comfortable patio furniture, picnic table, and a table with an umbrella. We spend many nights out at the fire pit. The house is very comfortable. The house has a wonderful sectional that we have watched many movies and footballs games with our family. We will definitely be back.

A Perfect Beach Getaway for us and our Pup! We had an another (3rd time?) amazing stay at this beautiful Airbnb! The location is unbeatable - very quiet, pet-friendly, and close to plenty of things to do! We spent time on local walks and soaking up the sun and playing in the sand at Cardiff with our dog. Oceanside itself has such a relaxed, welcoming vibe with plenty of great restaurants, cafes, and local shops to explore. The cottage was spotless, cozy, and incredibly well-equipped. It had everything we needed for a comfortable stay, and the fenced yard was a huge bonus for our pup to enjoy some off-leash time safely. The hosts are always absolutely fantastic—super responsive, kind, and thoughtful. They made sure we felt welcome from the moment we booked and checked in throughout our stay to see if we needed anything. This place truly felt like a home away from home. We couldn’t have asked for more!

Had a nice stay - check in instructions were a little hard to find but once we found the online portal they were pretty straightforward. Comfortable bed, nice shower head, and clean small studio space. Beach gear was provided which was a nice touch. Great location with easy free parking in the surrounding streets. Host was very responsive to any messages.

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.

Great view from the front of the house! Nighttime lights from downtown were awesome as well! My family had a great weekend!

What a great cute place to stay! A quick scenic walk to the beach, loads of activities and places, overall a great peaceful stay. Would for sure go back 🤙🏻🤙🏻

Sure! Here's a positive Airbnb review you can use for Lance's beach cottage in Escondido: --- **5 stars – A perfect beach getaway!** Lance’s beach cottage in Escondido was everything we hoped for and more. The place was spotless, cozy, and beautifully decorated with a relaxed coastal vibe. We especially loved the outdoor space—it was the perfect spot for morning coffee and evening sunsets. The location made it easy to explore nearby beaches and local restaurants, but it was also quiet and peaceful when we just wanted to relax. Lance was an exceptional host—responsive, thoughtful, and genuinely welcoming. He made sure we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We truly felt at home and can't wait to return.

Adorable place and great hosts. We came for a long weekend getaway and couldn’t have been happier with Mike and Tania’s place. Great location, close to the beach and restaurants, lots to do. Amazing communication and everything looks just like the pics. Can’t wait to come back again!
