About this property

Beautiful Beach Bungalow • Walk to Beach, Shops, Dining, and Race Track

A cascading exterior stair case leads to your second story home-away-from-home, finished in smooth Italian stucco and topped with Tuscan tiles. Once inside the light airy space, kick off your shoes and relax. You just booked a small slice of heaven, in one of the most amazing beach towns on the West Coast.

Locals call Solana Beach "The Bubble” — because once you arrive, there is very little reason to leave. Virtually everything you need is within walking distance from your new home. Cruise Cedros Design District for unique shopping, delicious food and awesome music at the Famous Belly up Tavern. Steal away for a leisurely hike in the San Elijo Lagoon. Or plop yourself on one of our many gorgeous beaches.

If exploring is your thing, then burst out of the bubble!

Hop on the train at the Solana Beach Station and head downtown to explore the historical streets of Old Town, Balboa Park, and the bustling Avenues of the Gas Lamp District.

Grab a ferry across the bay to Coronado Island and step back in time at the Hotel Del, as you sip drinks and enjoy lunch on the beach deck.

Head over to Mission Bay and visit the Mission Bay Sports Center, where you can rent sail boats, Waverunners, kayaks, pedal boats, paddle boards, surf boards and more!

Rent beach cruisers at Pacific Beach Bike Shop in Pacific Beach and explore life along the board walk. Don’t forget to stop at Belmont Park to ride the Giant Dipper roller coaster, zip line, rock climb, conquer a ropes course and get out of an escape room.

Still hungry for adventure? We are surrounded by five incredible theme parks: SeaWorld, Legoland, SeaWorld’s Aquatica Water Park, The Wild Animal Park, and The World Famous San Diego Zoo.

And if you plan your trip between the months of June and November you get the added bonus of experiencing the San Diego Fair and world class horse racing at the Del Mar Race Track.


DETAILS ABOUT THE PROPERTY:

Virtually everything in this one bedroom one bath apartment is BRAND NEW — from floors to furniture to appliances to linens to rugs to countertops. We use a professional cleaner and pride ourselves on keeping everything spick and span. Our hope is that guests who stay with us will appreciate the pristine environment we provide — help us keep it that way — and want to revisit time and time again.

The kitchen is fully stocked with plates, glasses, silverware, cooking utensils, pots, pans, coffee maker, toaster, and tea kettle. We have a gas stove, large microwave, and a full size refrigerator and freezer. We do not have a dishwasher. So, all dishes will need to be washed by hand.

The bedroom has a brand new California King mattress with a thick pillow top and four King pillows. The head board is made from the original seat boards from the Hollywood Bowl. We use Vera Wang sheets made from 600 thread count, super soft, 100% Supima Cotton.

We provide bath towels and beach towels.

There is a small grass area in front of your apartment; but for the most part, nature will be your back yard. At the end of our street is the opening to the San Elijo Lagoon Preserve. A variety of beautiful trails wind through the lagoon, with plenty of benches along the way to stop and rest, enjoy the view, and listen to the birds. Annie's Trail is a particular favorite. A fork in the trail takes you left up an open switch back to a stellar view of the Pacific Ocean. More adventurous hikers veer to the right and climb up through narrow canyon walls to reach the view top. To cool off after your hike, take a short 7 to 10 minute walk to the ocean. When the tide is low, explore the tide pools to the left of Seaside Beach.

Your guest house sits at the front of our family home, where we live and work. So, we will be readily available during your stay to answer any questions or provide you with help should you need anything.

California Dreaming

My wife and I stay at Sean's and Kristen's Bungalow and we had a great time. They were excellent hosts, made themselves available, and answered all of our questions. The Bungalow is clean, spacious, in a great neighborhood, and within a short walk of the beach. We are looking forward to our next stay in the Bungalow. Gus & Carrrie

Excellent Beach Bungalow

We spent 4th of July weekend at this delightful space on the side of a property near the owners home. The living room is spacious, kitchen immaculate with all high end appliances, and a lovely one bedroom with very comfortable bed, roomy closet and bathroom. My husband and I were visiting family and friends and found the location close to the beach and several nearby towns ideal. This unit had plenty of space for family to come to breakfast and for group gatherings. The owners communicated with us several times to make sure we gained access and had everything we needed. We highly recommend this wonderful place to stay. Robin Malby

Beautiful, well appointed apartment with all the amenities needed.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and the owners Sean and Kristen were so helpful and accommodating. The ocean and white sandy beach is only about 2 minutes away. The unit is very beautiful and contained everything we needed to make our stay so enjoyable. We definitely plan on returning and enjoying another very relaxing vacation at this same place. There are many great restaurants within a few minutes drive. We would give this unit a six star rating if that were available. Thanks again Sean and Kristen for the beautiful experience we enjoyed.

Wonderful Solana Beach Bungalow

We loved our stay at this tastefully decorated and spotlessly clean bungalow. We felt right at home! It was so bright and cheery due to many windows. The welcome items were such a nice touch. Sean was always available to provide anything needed or answer questions. We loved being able to walk to beach, restaurants, farmer's market, lagoon and design district. We would definitely stay here again

Overall good.

Laundry facility and dishwasher are notable deficiencies to this otherwise excellent rental. I hope the oven is repaired. I appreciate the personal attention and welcome gifts.

SOLANA BEACH BUNGALOW!! THE BEST!!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this Solana Beach Bungalow!! It is conveniently located off of I-5 and walking distance to Fletcher's Cove and the Beach!!! The bungalow is just gorgeous and comfortable, quiet, clean, secure and truly a home away from home! The owners are wonderful and we can't wait until we can go back for another long weekend!! We recommend this bungalow to any couple that want's a quiet get-a-way yet close to all the attractions and fun that San Diego offers!!!! Thank you Sean and Kristen for everything!!

Terrific Bungalow in Solana Beach...Walk to Beach, Shopping, Train, Restaurants, Yoga, etc.

This bungalow is the best VRBO I have experienced. The owner/manager is terrific; prompt, fair, direct and service oriented. I spent ten days working from the bungalow, enjoying Solana Beach and commuting to the barn in Rancho Santa Fe to ride my horses. The bungalow is quiet, sunny, clean, cheerful, comfortable and close to everything. I wanted for nothing. Internet connection was fast for my work. Bedding, towels, décor, appliances and supplies were perfect. I walked to yoga, shopping, beaching even walked to the depot and took the train to San Diego and Comic Con. Everything was so chill and easy. If you go…keep it beautiful because I’ll be back.
