stunning beach and sunrise views. Beach was clean and not overly crowded. In the middle of Ocean Beach, a summer party-town; enjoyed being there on the off-season. Security was very good.

Perfect Beach Getaway During Marine Bootcamp GraduationWe stayed at this beach house on Ocean Beach for a few days of relaxation and ocean views while attending a Marine bootcamp graduation, and it was exactly what we hoped for.Communication with the host was top notch — clear, timely, and helpful. Check-in was smooth and hassle-free. The house was just as described: clean, well-maintained, and stocked with all the amenities we needed for a comfortable stay.One of our favorite parts was enjoying our morning coffee on the patio with stunning views of the beach — such a peaceful way to start each day. The location is also fantastic, within easy walking distance to plenty of shops, restaurants, and cafes, which made exploring the area super convenient.We had a perfect stay and would absolutely recommend this beach house to others. We’d gladly stay here again in the future!
