Our stay

The property was very nice. The house is clean and modern with all the conveniences you could want The location, however is another story We woke up to a homeless person passed out next to our car the second morning. The beach which is a block away is overwhelmed with homeless. They have taken over the public bathroom taking showers in the outside shower. The parking lot has many vehicles with homeless in them. It is such a shame but I would not go there again and I would not endorse it. Sorry.

Sweet Cottage

This was a very comfortable place at one of the "old style California Beaches". Easy walk to the beach and dog beach, our dog loved it. Lots of decent restaurants around and small markets. Place had all you need to cook, sleep, play and lounge. Very enjoyable. And if you count planes, you wont be disappointed.

Spring Break Vacay

After staying several times on Mission Beach and Newport Beach, we tried OB last year and found our new place to stay therefore returning this year. We’ve discovered the neighborhood is much more family friendly; the food and shops are closer; and the beach is not busy. Our stay at Brighton Beach Cottage is the perfect spot from the beach and eateries. Lots of space for a family of 5 to spread out and have their own space with a private front and very spacious back patio. I know it only has one bathroom, however, the fact that you have lots of private space inside and out, close proximity to the beach/eateries, and the amazingly spacious dedicated parking spot completely outweigh that fact. We appreciate Catrina allowing us to stay in her place and being very attentive when called. We’d definitely love to stay again.

Cozy Christmas Beach Retreat

This home was equipped with everything we needed to make our Christmas Holiday complete! Such a cozy, clean and relaxing stay - loved being so close to walk to the beach with coffee in the morning. It was perfect for 3 of us - beds were very comfy - the backyard was a great layout for our son's dog to visit, he knew exactly where the "potty" area was. Definite 5 stars on the kitchen - very well stocked with anything we could possibly need. So convenient to downtown OB - love shops, restaurant's and the vibe. The Wednesday farmers market was awesome - huge! Complete with bongos and fire dancers! I can't wait to come back in warmer weather - so we could truly enjoy the back yard and front deck - and try some surfing! Parking out back was very convenient! Catrina and Jason were perfect hosts - very responsive. This home is a definite repeat on our list.

Perfect week at the beach

This was an amazing property! The location was great and I loved taking my dog to the beach multiple times a day. The porch was great to enjoy a drink and people watch with a view of the ocean at sunset. The back patio was also great with a super convenient outdoor shower and a pet relief area inside the fence. The place was spotless and the area was quiet and relaxed. Would definitely rent again!

Cute cottage.

The property is cute, clean, close to the beach. We had two issues. 1. The internet didn't work, so no TV for us. Called the owner who did not offer to call the internet provider. 2. The smoke alarm kept going off for no reason.

Second stay

Second stay and it was as great as the first time!! Area is great for families. Great restaurants around. House has everything you might need. We played board games every night. Spent the day at the beach every day. Breakfast in the front patio and dinner in the back patio every day. My favorite thing is that there’s an outdoor shower where we can rinse all the beach sand off and not bring any into the house. Will be staying here every year!
