About this property

The Ultimate San Diego Setting

Views to die for:

This is a 2-story home that was totally rebuilt in 2017 and features a private lower unit, which is what you are renting.

It is located on a bluff in Pacific Beach, adjacent to La Jolla and 1.2-miles from the beach (and no crazy traffic on my street)!

The unit has its own private entrance with two bedrooms, one full bath, washer and dryer, kitchen and a full living room (it is completely private from the upstairs unit).

It can sleep 6 people (two in each bedroom plus a queen sleeper couch in the living room).

There are three outside spaces with unbelievable, unobstructed 180° views from downtown San Diego to La Jolla. One deck has a sitting area with a dining table that seats six, two chaise lounges, outdoor heater and a BBQ. The second deck features a luxurious spa, while the third deck is an outside covered extension of the living room. Outdoor spaces are 420 friendly (but no smoking inside the unit, please).

There are three HD televisions with DirecTV in every room. The home also features heat and air conditioning .

The unit comes completely stocked, all you need to do is stop by the store on the way to stock the refrigerator, and don't forget your toothbrushes, everything else is taken care of.

Must see to believe -- this is without a doubt one of the nicest rentals in Pacific Beach if you want peace and quiet with unmatched whitewater views that's 1.2-miles from the ocean (that way, you don't have to deal with the boardwalk crowd, sounds, smells and chaos).

There is plenty of street parking, so renters are asked to please park your vehicles on the street (no parking in the driveway, please).

Feel free to ask us any questions. Thank you.

Please note: We also rent the upstairs portion of the home, which is completely private and locked off from downstairs. Upstairs has its own private gated entrance at the street, and private entry door. When tenants are in residence upstairs, we do not rent the downstairs unit and vise versa -- if the downstairs is rented, we do not rent the upstairs unit. But, this is my primary residence, so, often, when there are guests downstairs, I am living upstairs. When I have guests downstairs, you have private use of the patio, deck, BBQ and spa -- and my goal is to provide you with complete privacy during your stay.

ALSO: This is not a party house. If you are planning on coming to Pacific Beach and partying into the wee hours of the morning, please look elsewhere. This is a quiet residential neighborhood and my neighbors are not shy about complaining when guests are partying after hours.

Unfortunate
Unfortunately attacked by the host's dogs as my wife and I were trying to leave the property. I was not aware that their dogs would be present on site during my stay. This was not advertised on the listing. My pregnant wife and I were uncomfortable staying for the full 7 day reservation thereafter and I communicated this to the host. Unfortunately, the host was mainly concerned about the loss of revenue that would occur from me cancelling the reservation and asked me to pay what was "fair", off-platform even though I only stayed for the first night in exchange for canceling the remainder of the reservation. It was very difficult to cancel the reservation but after literally 4 hours on the phone with Customer Service, I ended up having to pay 50% of the total booking. Thankfully, no one was injured.

The rooms were nice and big. The beds are extremely comfortable, and the sheets were impressive. Nice barbecue on the deck which we utilize because the view is just gorgeous. A workable kitchen. I would recommend it.

Perfect view, wonderful stay!
Stayed for four nights with our two girls, ages 6 and 8. The location was perfect for quick trips to the zoo, beach, Petco park, sea world and Coronado island. It was so close to great restaurants in La Jolla too. The space itself was very clean and well-maintained. The inside was cozy and well designed - the outside was spectacular. We ate many meals outside and definitely enjoyed the hot tub and picturesque views

Gorgeous Weekend Getaway
This property was absolutely breath taking! My wife and dog and I stayed here from Thursday to Sunday for one of our mini moons. It was very private, romantic, and relaxing. The location is great: 10 minute drive to La Jolla, 7 minute drive to mission beach, 20 minute drive to downtown/Little Italy, and 25 minute drive to Del Mar/Torrey Pines. Just far enough away where you aren’t in the midst of traffic/city hustle bustle. Very private and safe neighborhood. The hot tub was awesome. We used it every day of our stay. Great outdoor views - can definitely relax and unwind at morning and night. The view overlooking the city and the beach is so beautiful. If my wife wasn’t pregnant we definitely would have walked everywhere! I would definitely recommend staying here for up to 4 people and maybe 1 child. There is a pullout bed, the master with a king, and a queen bed. More than 4 adults would feel crammed. Denise is a wonderful host, she was very responsive and gave tons of recommendations. We will definitely stay here again next time we are in the area!

ocean view paradise
We checked in and could not believe the incredible views from the house and decks--on line photos cannot capture it! Very quiet neighborhood--easy to access San Diego and close to La Jolla. We also went up to the wine country in Escondido which is 30 minutes away. Great restaurants with ocean views close by. The 2 bedroom unit is compact and lovely with the alfresco dining--outside heat lamp included! Would highly recommend!

Great location- super nice.
No issues whatsoever. Accommodations were as advertised, very clean, clear instructions for everything. Amazing patio and deck, we didn’t utilize the hot tub, but looked very relaxing. Homeowner lives above the rental unit but it is set up in a way that our paths never crossed. Lots of privacy. Would for sure stay again if in the area.

We enjoyed our stay. The house was clean, and we loved the area. The weather wasn't great the first couple of days, but on our last day we got to enjoy the deck. Amazing 180 degree view from the deck.

Incredible views
The rental is located in a quiet neighborhood but still close to the beach, restaurants, and grocery stores. Very private and clean. All amenities you would need are included. The best part about this property is the large deck, hot tub, and incredible views. I actually wish we would have spent more time at the property utilizing them. We enjoyed our stay so much, even our toddler didn’t want to leave. Would 100% stay here again. If you’re debating between this and another property, pick this one.

Great location!
Our family of four stayed in this listing for a few days. The location was great for getting around to things we wanted to do in San Diego. The view was amazing and the unit was nicely decorated. The beds were super comfy. The hot tub was a wonderful addition to our trip. Denise was available via text throughout our trip to help with minor issues. She was friendly and helpful. Overall a great place to stay!

Perfect San Diego experience
Denise is correct when calling this house 'The Ultimate San Diego Setting'. I cannot think of a more perfect house, inside and out, and the view of the ocean from the house is great. It's quiet, private, and frankly perfect. Hot tub on the multi-layer deck, privacy in a covered patio. Absolutely amazing house.

Great location in a quiet neighborhood up from the beach. Lovely deck with wonderful view of the bay and ocean. We loved relaxing in the hot tub with a glass of wine at the end of the day. Master bed was very comfortable. Bathroom is compact, just know there is no space to spread toiletries out, but otherwise quite nice. Good communication with host Denise.

Enjoyed the use of a home with up to date appliances, air conditioning and the deck views were tremendous; the jacuzzi was a great choice for us when we were relaxing at the end of each day.

Perfectly serene
This was our first time in the area and we could not have picked a better place to stay ! The neighborhood was safe and quiet and central to all of our exploring. The best part was the serene outdoor area with fabulous water and city views, hot tub and grill. The beds were comfortable, the place was quiet, clean and very well equipped. Denise was responsive, but otherwise we would hardly know she was living upstairs. I would DEFINITELY stay again !
