Amazing location, great host, perfect California style property
I loved my stay at this lovely studio. The character of the home was perfect California style. I loved the shared courtyard and having the ability to do laundry occasionally. It was within walking distance to everything i needed including walks along the ocean front. Very safe neighborhood near the Navy base, beach, restaurants, movie theater and more. The bike was a bonus. The owner was always very responsive to my questions and requests.

Coronado Studio
Beautiful studio with garden patio area within walking distance of downtown and the beach. Loved the natural light and comfortable room. Older bathroom but had everything we needed. Kitchenette does not have a table for two, just a fridge, toaster and microwave, but there is seating for 6 in the backyard.

Beautiful beach stay!
This VRBO was perfect and came exactly as listed. So much natural sunlight, comfy bed, and great location. We were able to walk to the beach as well as restaurants/shops. We did notice a trail of ants coming in from outside, and I do wish there was a space for dirty dishes/ a place to wash dishes. Other than those minor issues we were very happy! Would book again:)

George was very friendly and helpful. The property was in a great location and pictures were very accurate. The studio had a lot of charm. Some reviews complained of the construction going on in the yard, but it wasn't a constant presence.

pleasant getaway
My girlfriend and I enjoyed our stay on Coronado. The room was comfortable, the amenities inside were as listed, the backyard was lovely but no back gate so had to keep the dogs leashed. (I had two small dogs with me) The only downside is that the walls were paper thin and you could hear everything in the attached house. The owner was very responsive and easy to work with. For the price point, this is an excellent bargain!

Charming old Spanish style property with lush garden. Host responded immediately with answers to requests or inquiries. House is situated on a somewhat busy street but still private. Constant air and ground traffic noise is part of staying on Coronado Island.

Perfect For A Lone Traveler
Host was very good at responding to all questions and assisting with the check in process. Absolutely beautiful home in the Coronado Beach area. My pup and I were able to walk to restaurants/bars from the property, which is a huge check in my book! Only hiccup was not getting the room I originally thought I was getting due to an overbooking. The host was able to accommodate me with another room and fully reimbursed me, which I am very grateful for. I wish there was a little more transparency about gardeners arriving at 7am that woke me up earlier than I would have liked, but other than that it was a wonderful pit stop on our travels.
