Modern Pacific Beach 1 Bedroom Apartment With AC.
This Airbnb was a little confusing to find in the beginning since the entrance is in an alley. The Airbnb is very nice especially for 2 people. The beach is within walking distance and there’s a lot of food and things to do nearby. I will definitely come back here again if I’m in SD

Beach In Beach Out
Jasmines place is a gem! In a very peaceful area, beautiful view to walk out to every morning. The outside deck was a huge plus, very cozy. She not only gave us good food recommendations but was very flexible with our check out time. Would recommend to anyone!

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 🌊☀️🏖️

On park. 1 bed apt.has air & small kitchen+w&d
Anthony’s apartment was just what I needed for my adult son and me. 2 twin beds in the living room worked well as another bedroom without the cost of a 2 bedroom. The kitchen is small but had all we needed to make bfast in the mornings. Helpful to have a parking spot in back and washer dryer in unit. I really enjoyed the location next to an urban park, pretty neighborhood for walks, and short walk to restaurants and coffee shop. Anthony was super helpful when we arrived.

Modern Private Apt - 1bd 1 ba
Thank you so much for a wonderful stay. The private parking is Tijuana is always a huge plus! The space itself was very clean and the kitchen was fully stocked. With the tortilleria a block away we were able to have a quick tasty snack without needing to venture into the city. We will be back sooner than you know it!

Beach Paradise #1 3 Blocks to Beach! WIFI Cable AC
Stayed for the weekend and was able to find lots of additional parking nearby. Great stay for many guests :)

Oceanfront Oasis: Step from Your Door to the Sand
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.

Decent stay in San Diego. Fulfills all basic expectations from a stay. The host and the place are handled with professionalism. Recommended.
Private 2BD Apt + 1Min to Beach + Parking
This was an incredible place to stay! The hosts were so responsive and went out of their way to even bring us a gift basket and say hello. Their communication made the place so easy to be able to find and it’s walkable to the beach, restaurants, coffee shops, and more. This place is a true gem due to location and the amazing hosts!

Clean, Private, Quiet, Centrally Located Apartment
Well appointed flat. Good instructions on how to find the place and the hosts answered promptly to a couple of queries . Good hot shower which was welcome after long days out and about. Good location and easy access to laundry was great for the 10 day stay we had. Only one recommendation is for maybe a new bed due to roll together ! But hey this is a great flat and good value .

1 Block to Mission Bay in Pacific Beach, 1 bedroom
Seriously one of the best AirBnb’s I’ve stayed in. Amazing location. Can walk to the bays and to groceries and eateries. Very well equipped. Spacious. Bed was so comfortable too! Thank you so much for sharing your space!

Fantastic Hideaway by the Sea *****
We loved this place! The location is amazing, parking is easy in a location where parking normally isn't. Everything is within walking distance. There are multiple coffee shops, markets with daily necessities, different restaurants for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The best Ice Cream shop in town 10 feet away. It's true that there's no real view but all you have to do is walk outside and you're in the middle of an incredible neighborhood. You can sit at one of the tables out front and see the ocean from there. You can walk 3-5 minutes and be at the beach to watch the sunrise or sunset. Walking to the beach with your equipment is easy since it's so close and when you're done at the beach, you can drop your things off and eat at one of the many restaurant options surrounding the apartment. We loved this apartment and will be staying here whenever we return to La Jolla!

Departamento Luva
The place was exactly like the pictures! Host was very friendly and responded very quickly. 10/10 recommend for a getaway. Had a lot of surrounding places to eat, including a cute little coffee shop all within walking distance. Rooftop pool was definitely my favorite part.

Departamento CP 236
It was such a relaxing getaway, I feel it’s a good place for anyone really. Excellent environment and close to a lot of things.

Spacious Apartment Over Balboa
Perfect location in the building; on the same floor as the gym which was a nice perk. Rooftop is beautiful. Location is perfect, we were able to walk everywhere or take a short uber/lyft. Unit is clean, bright, modern, & refreshingly minimalist. Parking was only a small challenge over the weekend but we always found something right on the park or reasonably nearby most of the time. Tucker was super responsive with any and all questions leading up to and during our stay. We plan on trying to book this very unit again in the near future as it felt like the perfect little home away from home. Thank you Tucker!

La Jolla Windansea Paradise Two
Such a great spot! Quiet and peaceful, unbeatable location. Windensea is a stone’s throw away La Jolla is super walkable. Cy lives right there on the property and goes above and beyond. He has thought of everything a guest could need and is there ready to help with anything. Thanks for everything Cy!

Luxe 2BR Penthouse|Prime Location/Gastro district
Great stay; close by to quite a few good places. Beautiful view and home

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 !

Luxe: Pool, Hot Tub, Arcade, King Beds, Pickleball
I had an amazing stay! The entire home was sparkling clean and very welcoming. Our hosts were incredibly nice and helpful, location was perfect, making it easy to get around and explore. I highly recommend this Airbnb to anyone looking for a comfortable and convenient place to stay. I would definitely book again!

Luxury 3Br Downtown Convention Center & Petco
Absolutely loved the place and its location in relation to everything around it. This property was absolutely perfect for our weekend trip and the golf simulator and other activities in the game room at the complex added so much to our trip. We were able to walk to so many restaurants and other places in the area we didn’t even have to drive anywhere and look for parking or call an Uber. The host was very fast to respond and helped answer any question I had. I would for sure stay at this location the next time I have a group trip to the area.
