Doug’s place is in an IDEAL location. It is cute and clean and all that you need for a great time in San Diego. The amenities of beach towels and the grill were super handy. I came here with my partner for a parents’ getaway and it was just enough space for the two of us. The listing is very close to the water and in an amazingly fun and unique neighborhood that has everything you could need. I highly recommend walking down the street 1/ block to the cliff every evening to catch an incredible sunset.
The shower is super tiny, so don’t expect to be able to easily shave your legs, wash your feet, or shower together without some sort of circus contortionist moves. The water gets VERY hot which is nice but be careful! The TV and internet were a little slow here and there but that could probably be fixed with a quick network reboot. Be aware that the walls are thin and the spaces are close to each other, so keep intimacy and/or private conversations at a low volume with the windows shut or your neighbors WILL hear you. ;)
Side note: If you are thinking about renting a car, get a compact or save the rental money all together. Parking can be difficult in this area but you really don’t need to leave if you don’t want to. Ocean Beach has everything you need for a wonderful San Diego experience. Tasty food, beautiful beaches and fun nightlife within walking distance. We wish we had skipped the rental and just walked everywhere or taken taxis when needed.
