I stayed here with my two young kids for a week and we loved being close to the beach. The house is beautiful and having a stocked kitchen and washer/dryer was great. We got used to the airplane noise but I did buy a couple extra fans because we're not used to the humidity and it was warm at night during the particular week we stayed. We could walk to get ice cream or coffee or pizza. There was even a small market just a couple minutes walk away. Overall we had a wonderful time and would recommend Marina's place to anyone looking to stay in San Diego/Ocean Beach area.
