4.87 out of 5 average rating, 170 reviewsBay View Beach House - Coastal Retreat
Our hosts were welcoming and very helpful. The descriptions and instructions were clear and easy to understand. The house was very light and bright. It was spacious and clean. Everything was exactly as described. We ate lunches out and cooked dinners in and enjoyed the ability to use the grill and enjoy the patio. Our hosts were incredibly responsive! We had a small issue with a smoke alarm and Michael came that day and replaced it within an hour. Then he stayed to chat and offered recommendations on many local adventures (Cabrillo State Park and Point Loma Lighthouse, La Jolla Cove and Cave) and restaurants. One note which is made clear in the instructions involves the garage. We had a larger car (SUV type) and I highly recommend a party to guide the driver while parking in the garage. The car fit nicely in the garage but the alley is a tight space for navigating. We will definitely be back and look forward to more San Diego adventures! Thank you Michael and Lily!

Adam was very quick with communication and was able to let us know a toilet was broken and what time it would be fixed. The place was in a great location near a lot of amazing places near the pier. The garage is a little difficult to get into as the neighbor is not keen with you using her parking space to clear the wall but otherwise no issues. The hot tub on the deck is the best part, it may just need to additional lighting to see when grilling later in evening. The neighbors were peaceful and nice and we were walking distance to a lot of things. Would maybe recommend not even getting a car as there are lots of bike and good cart rentals and we only drove to and from the airport and a few other places. We loved our stay here as there was lots of space for everybody and it was nice it was pet friendly. We would 100% stay here again as it had everything we wanted out of our vacation. Would recommend leaving windows/door open in kitchen. It gets smoky up there and the alarm goes off easy

Harry's place was fabulous. One block from the beach, great community space on the 2nd floor for us all to hang out, especially great because the wall facing north opens to the patio. Everything was as described and we had plenty of room for the kiddos. Walked to great restaurants daily. Would definitely stay here again.

This house is a great place to stay for an extended visit, as it has all the essentials and a fabulous view. We appreciated the personal welcome we received from the host, as well as the high quality of the kitchen, bath and laundry facilities. Point Loma is accessible to downtown, Coronado, Balboa Park, and the airport. The neighborhood has grocery stores, a movie theatre, restaurants, and waterfront trails. The house is located in a residential area that's quiet during night hours, which makes for a good night's sleep. Although it was too cold to use the outdoor spaces, the two lounge areas and the barbeque would be great for visitors during good weather. Our only suggestion for improvement would be to install blinds in the kitchen and dining room windows. Some type of sun control is needed to make these areas usable during the morning hours, due to the bright sunlight. Window blinds would also provide privacy at night.

We had an absolutely fantastic stay! The house is beautifully designed with the perfect configuration, making it both comfortable and practical. The location is unbeatable—literally beachfront! Despite being near the beach parking lot, it was wonderfully calm and undisturbed. Plus, it’s just a peaceful 5-minute walk to the charming city center. And the view from the rooftop.… absolutely breathtaking! We couldn’t get enough of it. The house was spotless and came equipped with everything we needed, from silverware to all the essentials, making our stay seamless and enjoyable. We already can’t wait to come back! Highly recommend this gem.

Our stay was wonderful. You already know from the pictures that the view is amazing, but in person it’s even better. The location was excellent - within walking distance of grocery stores, clothes shops, restaurants, bars, ice cream, coffee shops, etc. The apartment was bigger than it appeared in the pictures. It was very clean and stocked with plenty of pillows, towels, and toilet paper. We were greeted with a delightful plate of fresh fruit. Great place in an excellent location.
