My family of 5 really enjoyed our stay here. Space was just as pictured. All kitchen appliances are new, home is decorated with a stylish beach theme. Beach towels are provided, as are extra linens for sofa bed. The house does not have AC, but there is a fan for each bedroom and a large box fan for the living room, which cools the house down enough for comfortable sleep. We were there the first week of August. The house description says 2 blocks to beach, which is technically true, but be aware that you do have to cross Mission Blvd. Once on the beach (10 minute walk for us), we walked south toward the heart of Pacific Beach, and we were grateful that our rental was a little bit removed from the crowds of people and craziness. The house is surprisingly quiet at night, even with all windows open. The neighborhood felt very safe. Lots of restaurants within walking distance, and the grocery store is only 1 mile away. Everything you need is within 1-2 miles of this house, you could even get away with no rental car. We did have a rental car (Volvo), which easily fit in the garage. We did end up renting body boards one day, as the ones provided were broken/flimsy, and the rentals were much higher quality. We did appreciate the beach towels and chairs that were provided. Overall, great place to stay.
