About this property
OB Pier 2 walk to the beach, pier and restaurants!
Summary:
Nothing beats a condo in a perfect location for your getaway, and this vacation rental has both. You can even bring up to three small dogs along with the five guests that can be accommodated (4 adults).
The Space:
Not only is this condo right across the street from the beach, but since it's set in Ocean Beach, you'll enjoy a small town feel, while still being close to eateries, shopping, and a wide range of activities. And while Ocean Beach can definitely keep the entire group happy for the whole trip, San Diego proper is just a few miles away.
Open and packed with all the essentials, this studio unit is the perfect home base. Faux wood tile floors, blue glass tiled accents, sky blue walls, and white vaulted ceilings are just a few of the ways this home stand out from your typical stuffy hotel room.
Inside this top-floor condo are two comfortable queen-size beds, so all four guests have a place to rest each night. The bathroom is furnished with a vanity complete with a raised glass sink and a stand-alone glass shower accented with more of the entrancing glass blue tiles found spotted throughout this home.
Meals are made easy with everything provided in the kitchen. Along with the essential stainless steel appliances, a microwave, coffee maker, toaster, and dishwasher are provided. All you have to bring along are your groceries and you'll have budget-friendly meals all week long.
The dining room table, with its overly comfortable chairs and bench seat, is great for more than just meals together. Bring board games or crafts to keep you happily occupied in between beach trips.
After a long day of wake-boarding lessons at the Mission Bay Aquatic Center, relax on the leather sofa while watching a show on the flatscreen cable TV. WiFi is also included here, so sharing photos of your epic vacation is a must.
Head out to the balcony to take in the breathtaking ocean view before heading out for a night on the town.
You won't want to leave your furry family members at home for this incredible vacation. And with Ocean Beach Dog Beach only half a mile away from this home, your dogs (up to three dogs each under 25 pounds) will even beg for a return trip. Please keep in mind that there is a nightly pet fee.
This listing includes the upstairs studio condo, but there are two other condos in the same building that you can rent if desired! The other upstairs rental, the one-bedroom Ocean Beach Pier #3, sleeps up to four guests. Downstairs is the two-bedroom Ocean Beach Pier #1. Please click the individual links to see the other two condos or to rent them or call La Jolla Vacation Rentals for additional information.
Take a stroll down Ocean Beach Pier, located just a few hundred yards away. Surf, boogie board, build sand castles, and simply relax under the sunny skies of Southern California. Take a much needed break from cooking your own meals and try any of the amazing eateries within walking distance. Hodad's is a local favorite and has some of the best burgers you'll ever taste. Or drive six miles into San Diego and bring your dog along to try delicious food at the Lazy Dog Restaurant.
Sea World is less than three miles away. Mission Beach is just over three miles away, and endless shopping can be found at Gaslamp Quarter and Seaport Village eight miles southeast. Don't miss out on visiting Balboa Park for educational museums, entrancing gardens, and the San Diego Zoo.
Take on a new view of San Diego when you stay at this vibrant vacation rental.

Our 2nd time at this location..perfect stay while visiting my boys at SDSU! They loved coming to visit and surfing at Ocean Beach. Lots of fun activities nearby and great food! We will be back!
We loved our stay and really had no issues at all - property has great amenities, lovely deck overlooking Ocean Beach and huge plus on allocated parking space!! We have booked again!

OB Pier 2 review
The location was very nice. Just steps away from the beach and a short walk to s variety of stores, restaurants and bars. As for the accomodations, we were disappointed. While the view was great, the overall cleanliness was very lacking. The beds and linen were clean. Beyond that however, things could have been better. The oven was dirty and would not light. The baking sheets were greasy and had not been washed since the last use. Other pans did not look clean as well. The floor was not entirely swept. There was dust and sand in many of the corners, and there was no vacuum or even a broom and dustpan for us to use. Also worth mentioning is the farmers market every Wednesday. While enjoyable, the crowds and the resulting noise went on long into the evening, making sleep difficult.
Overall, my stay was okay.
I can't say I would return but I also can't say wouldn't.
Layout was perfect everything you need.
Opening the gate / door was not an issue. Just follow the instructions the office sends you and watched the video.
No maintenance issues.
Beds were reasonable and slept well.
Bathroom was actually pretty for unit.
Downsides;
Outside sleepers in vans and or the neighbor not sure who but they synced to our bluetooth speaker and played creepy music. It made us feel like we were being watched & unsafe.
Also, you are literally next door to the restaurant (a very positive thing it being so close and having food readily available) however, when they are doing their grease traps and cleaning in the morning the smell is HORRIFIC! Temporary maybe 2 hours max but its enough to close windows and doors.
Parking is also TIGHT TIGHT TIGHT! We had an suv, and the other two guests had trucks so a compact car would be perfect.
Overall 4 out of 5!
View is beautiful.
Having the farmers market while we were there was also a very awesome plus.
Thank you for allowing us to stay!
Loved the location. Close to everything within walking distance. Our favorite part was sitting out on the balcony. Perfect for your dogs too & Park across the street. We will be back.
We had a great stay. The house is so cute however the cleaning people missed cleaning a few things.Underneath the bed it looks like the mattress stuffing is hanging.Dining room table legs dusty. Dining room chairs and small couch by glass slide n door could useA washing.Bedskirts could use a washing and inside needs a painting.Patio had cobwebs.Did the cleaning people tell you we really cleaned upThe place and did you leave feedback for me?

Property itself was great, but neighborhood was less than ideal. There were countless homeless people camped out 24/7 in the ocean park in front of the condo. Not something the property owner can control but did impact our trip.
We had a wonderful stay here - an easy walk to Dog Beach with the pups and our beach gear. Our favorite part was sitting on the balcony/deck, which overlooks a little grass park area and the beach! Lots of people watching in OB. And the sounds of the ocean are fantastic. It's important to know that this unit is right in the middle of it all - sandwiched between Ocean Beach hotel and a restaurant shopping area. Also, the grass area across the street is home to a bunch of street vendors and random people playing the drums, etc. We loved this... until about 11pm when the drum circle was still going strong - so this isn't really an escape/relaxation place to stay. Finally, the oven is out of service though the stove works just fine. The fridge/freezer is also smaller than regular size (and a couple shelves are broken in the fridge). This wasn't an issue for us for just a couple of days, but if we were staying longer it might have been a bit annoying. All in all, we would definitely recommend staying here!
This is our favorite place for a quick getaway. Easy access to the beach, love the ocean front view, love visiting vendors and restaurants. We can't wait to come back.
My husband and I were in awe of our stay. It was such a perfect spot right in front of the ocean and so many places to hang and eat at. Our experience was so positive and breathtaking! Thank you for this ❤️
Maybe this was my fault. But lots of homelessness. No privacy on outside deck, there is a three story restaurant to the right of you that has a great view into your patio. Drum circle until 10 pm one night which was fun to watch and listen to. Drug addicts crawling on the sidewalks were hard to explain to a 3-5 year old. The mattresses need to be changed. They seemed old and broken down. Our backs were killing us after one night. Other than that this place is awesome!! I will be back for a girls trip or just my husband and I. Your so close to the beach and restaurants and shopping. I didn’t try to cook or do to much in the kitchen but having a fridge and microwave were nice. Over all this place is great.
great location right on the main drag for OB. Overlooking little park and ocean - nobody between the balcony & the cool ocean breezes!! Room is also very well appointed - the pictures do tell the story.
Parking is awful if you have to park in the curb drop off and light pole car damage parking spot. It should be posted NO PARKING in these 3 spots because your company kept texting me all day that I was in someones spot, when your directions clearly state no checking in until 4pm. I was in Escondido and sight seeing all day until check in time. YOU SHOULD HAVE HANDLED IT IN PERSON OR CALLED THE POLICE if an unknow car is in the spot. You clearly know what it is like down there. A dirty disgusting circus filled with urine, feces, human and dog, prostitution, homeless people everywhere...that was our Wednesday night welcome. AND A VENDOR AT THE SO CALLED BIZARRE WAS IN A SPOT THE ENTIRE DAY AND NIGHT. I SENT YOU PICTURES OF THEIR CAR AND LICENSE PLATE....BUT HOW DID THAT HELP US? We had an extended Jeep Gladiator that barely could get into the only parking spot free, the curb drop off spot. For the amount of money we paid to stay there it's a hell hole. Your stair way had cobwebs and dead bugs, I have pictures of your pillow cases with dirty black lines on them because it looks like your laundry service washed it with a feather duster, of which a feather was glued stuck to one of the pillow cases. It could be a lot cleaner. There is cobwebs and dust on the table chandelier glass bulbs hanging over the table, gross, brown grime around the bathroom window, NO BEACH CHAIRS ON PREMISES. And the non stop partying with the bongo drum loop that played all night during their beach raving played until late into the night. So that was Wednesday. Thursday I got to see all the homeless people again right in front of the VRBO hanging out all day, in front of the beach bathroom their were obvious drug deals going on, dog poop on the sidewalk, etc...I know you obviously cannot control the homeless and mentally ill population in the town, and I myself am in social services, but I paid a lot of money for a honeymoon stay in a less than desirable place. The actual inside is okay, but can be cleaner and updated for the money you charge. I am also a degreed paralegal so I understand contracts, and I do not believe you fulfilled your end of the contract on the property inside and out. You keep out accurate information and did not fulfill on what you promised. Having stated that, I would like some compensation returned to my credit card. I could have stayed on Coronado Island for 3 nights and felt safe and been in a clean enviro for what I paid at your rental.

Loud, smelly, expensive
Not what the pictures appeared, outdated, really loud, smelly, windows don't lock, way too expensive
The location is unbeatable for shopping and restaurants. As well as very close walk to an excellent dog beach. However, be warned, Ocean Beach (OB) is not for everyone. Coming from Los Angeles, where we are used to the homeless issue, it wasn't quite as shocking, however, there is still quite an uptick in homeless and drug users around the property.
This is a great Ocean Beach property! Smack dab right in the middle of all the OB busyness and a people watchers paradise! A stones throw from the beach and tide pools and walking distance to restaurants and local market.
The neighbors are super friendly and made us feel like locals! If you like lot's of peace and quiet, this is not for you but it was a great play to stay for me and my family! Inside the unit, it is quiet considering how busy the areas is. The unit had everything we needed but we mostly did take out food to enjoy on the deck!
Property managers are great communicators and I would highly recommend this place!
