Come escape to the beach and get away from the craziness of life. OB is a vibrant, bohemian neighborhood with a fun SoCal beach vibe. You will be able to walk to great brewpubs and restaurants in just minutes. Stroll down Voltaire street and engage all your senses for all kinds of delights and sights. Our studio is located in one of the most desirable areas in Ocean beach. No matter what direction you head, you will find yourself immersed in the pulse and grove of OB. Located 4 miles from the San Diego airport and only 6 blocks from one of the most popular beaches in San Diego and the famous OB Pier.

Perfect for a romantic getaway or road trip destination!

Such a cute place in a great location! Walking distance from the beach which was a big plus. Plane noise was noticeable throughout the day, but understandable due to being close to the airport. Would absolutely stay here again as a solo traveler!

What a quaint little place near many things! It was cozy and comfortable to stay. If you're mainly looking for a place to sleep this is it! I knew picking a studio that it'd be on the small size but once I brought in all our things the space was tight, thats on me though for over packing. Parking was tideous but I was able to find street parking every time, I never had to park too far away. There are restaurants and shops in walking distance that were great! We enjoyed Harumama across the street and OB Surf Cafe up the ways towards the beach. The place was well kept and the neighbors are friendly!

Great location. Good size for weekend get away. However there is a skylight which is nice during the day, although it makes the room very bright from sunup to sundown, meaning sleeping in can be difficult. If it could be covered at night time that would be amazing.

Cottage property on a Main Street in Ocean beach with easy walk to some coffee shops, pizza and a small brew pub. Short drive to SD airport, SD Zoo & Balboa Park, Sunset Cliffs and more. Cottage was clean and bed fairly comfortable. Being on a main drag and across from the fire department and near airport it was a little noisy at night. Street parking only but always found something if we came home later. Easy check in/out process. Good communication with host. Would recommend.

Francesca was so helpful and replied to any question immediately. #1AMORE was so cozy, so cute, and in a great location in Ocean Beach, allowing for easy walking everywhere. Admittedly, we didn't spend that much time there as we live in Wyoming, where we are headed into winter. It was so nice to be outside. But so nice to come back and relax. We will stay again in the future if we are in the area!
