Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Robin C. 5 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy 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.
