Absolutely amazing location. If you have a dog, this is a no brainer. Maybe a minute walk to the dog beach (also to the human beach). OB is practically a dog town that allows humans - never been somewhere so dog friendly (pups are even allowed in the grocery store and literally almost every restaurant).
The back patio and front porch/yard were great for hanging out. The A/C and fans did a great job of cooling the house down or you can leave it off and use the metal screened front door to let the ocean air flow through the house. Awesome neighbor and pup next door too.
The place looks smaller in the pictures than it felt. Plenty of space for the two of us and our 65lb dog for the month, especially since it rained once and we were either on the beach or outside the rest of the time. The bed is super comfy and the shower was warm and had solid water pressure.
Tons of great food walking distance from the house. Other than some plane noise (not an issue when you’re working inside) the area was quiet especially considering how much partying goes on in parts of OB. Street parking was never an issue.
Hosts are super communicative and helpful. We will definitely stay again whenever we visit OB!
