I researched places to stay in San Diego for several days - hotel, inns, AirBnbs from La Jolla to Coronado. We live in NYC (Manhattan/Greenwich Village) so walkability and being away from center city was a big thing for us, so Ocean Beach and the cottage was perfect. All the foliage in OB and the property was a pleasant surprise. The patio was great. It is a short walk to the beach and casual dining and natural foods abound. The casita was spotless - everything was provided. We are both attentive to details and really appreciated how Trace went the extra mile with things like a finger pull Fridge, new dishwasher, bathrobes, make up caddy, well stocked Sundries, French press, Keurig options, A/C split units with remotes, TV in the bedroom and living room. We traveled and explored the region extensively for 5 days but we always looked forward to coming back to our home away from home. It was the quintessential California experience!
