San Diego Surf Shack #1 -1/2 Block to the Pacific!

About this space
San Diego Surf Shack #1 (think small cottage with a beach vibe) just 100 ft from the Pacific and a 5 minute walk to the sand! It's a 300sq ft studio. It features a luxurious bed, kitchen, HD TV, and blazing fast WiFi. The bathroom is airplane size, and includes a shower, but no tub. 100 steps to reach the top of the stairs that lead down to the beach!

1) No Extra Guests or Additional Guests beyond the number in the reservation.
2) No Pets
3) This isn't a party house.
The space
It's cute. It's quirky. It feels like a camp, but it's 100ft to the beach and in the middle of everything Ocean Beach and San Diego have to offer. Within 2 blocks of restaurants, bars, shops, yoga studios, fishing, and surfing. Take advantage of our kitchen for meals, or venture out and sample some awesome San Diego restaurants during your stay here! Start the morning off right with some coffee in the kitchen, or pick up coffee at one of the numerous neighborhood coffee stands and walk two blocks to the beach for a stroll as you watch the surf. We are blocks from some of San Diego's most iconic beach spots. Have a hamburger at Hodad's or get a scoop of ice cream between two flavored freshly made mini-waffles at Lighthouse. Also, eating at the quirky restaurant way out at the end of the Ocean Beach Pier is something that shouldn't be missed. Of course, there is a BBQ grill, and it's always a good time to cook out. After lunch, head back home and take a nap or relax on the deck. If you like shopping, you are virtually 10-20 minutes from any destination in the greater San Diego Metro area. I would suggest starting with the cool little shops a couple blocks away on Newport Ave for the original artwork. At night, you have a number of really incredible options. On one of the nights of your stay, you have to walk down the beach and have a bonfire in one of the beach fire pits. It's an absolute imperative... a must do beach experience. The smell and sound of the ocean, the feel of the sand, the smell of the fire, the taste of the s'mores...... We also have the restaurant Beau Bo just a couple blocks away for a romantic dinner. Try the lobster risotto. ...and there are so many other great restaurants within walking distance: Kaiserhoff, OB Noodle House, etc For Touristy stuff... well, the beach is two blocks away. Step out on the sidewalk and look to your left. It's that blue thing where the land ends. SeaWorld is a five minute drive. The World Famous San Diego Zoo is a ten minute drive away. Disneyland is a ninety minute drive.

Liked: Cleanliness
The host responds quickly and the pre-stay information was very valuable. He isn’t kidding about the parking but when you are that close to the beach. You must be vigilant.The cottage was clean, with shampoo and conditioner. Bar soap was also available. Coffee filters and coffee were furnished as well. It is all about location that makes this place so special.
