This Pacific Beach AirBnB was a great location. You can see the ocean from the sidewalk. It is a quick 2 block walk. The house is roomy. We were a family of 6 and it was perfectly comfortable. The backyard is great.
The neighborhood feels safe and is easy to walk around. You have about every type of restaurant to go to in less than 6 blocks. Mr. Moto Pizza is an easy two blocks away for an easy family dinner. We had a amazing patio lunch at Tower 23 Hotel if you want to treat yourself. We really didn't have a bad meal. Here are a few of our recommendations: Fat Fish Cantina ($4 Margs at Happy Hour), Duck Dive was a great atmosphere for drinks but mixed feelings at the table regarding food, Dirty Birds is a great dive bar with fantastic wings, there is white and red checkered burger joint, cant remember the name, real close to there and they have $1 soft serve cones for those who need to get their daily ice cream fix without paying gelato prices.
For your shoppers, The Pangaea Outpost was by far my favorite boutique. It actually is a mix of shops and you can find just about everything. Its easy to make a couple trips there because its a little overwhelming at first and there is no way you can see it all.
This house was perfect if you don't mind a short, short walk to the beach and the neighborhood is full of restaurants and shopping. You really don't need to leave this space unless you want to.
