This is a great place to stay. We were 5 in the house: me, my husband, 3-year-old daughter, and my in-laws. The house itself has a good layout for visiting. There is a lot of space to hang out both inside and outside the house. It is also nicely decorated in a way that feels homey. It is somewhat childproof and doesn't have any stairs. We felt that the host provided everything we could need and more. There are a lot of beach supplies and bikes as well as laundry detergent, cooking essentials etc. If you are staying here you can pack light. The neighborhood is nice and quiet, except for the sound of aircraft which didn't bother us. From the home. it is easy to walk all around the Ocean Beach area which has a lot of great restaurants, cafes, and bars. I quite like the area. Although there is plenty of tourism, it still feels authentic. Be aware that you will see people living in Ocean Beach without formal housing; they mean no harm. I wish we could have stayed longer, and during warmer weather, to have time to enjoy the beach more. Our daughter actually didn't want to leave to go home. She refers to this place as 'our vacation home.'
