OB Pier 2 - beachfront studio w\/ocean views - dogs welcome!
About this apartment rental
Nothing beats a condo in a perfect location for your getaway, and this vacation rental has both. You can even bring up to three small dogs along with the five guests that can be accommodated (4 adults). Not only is this condo right across the street from the beach, but since it's set in Ocean Beach, you'll enjoy a small town feel, while still being close to eateries, shopping, and a wide range of activities. And while Ocean Beach can definitely keep the entire group happy for the whole trip, San Diego proper is just a few miles away. Open and packed with all the essentials, this studio unit is the perfect home base. Faux wood tile floors, blue glass tiled accents, sky blue walls, and white vaulted ceilings are just a few of the ways this home stand out from your typical stuffy hotel room. Inside this top-floor condo are two comfortable queen-size beds, so all four guests have a place to rest each night. The bathroom is furnished with a vanity complete with a raised glass sink and a stand-alone glass shower accented with more of the entrancing glass blue tiles found spotted throughout this home. Meals are made easy with everything provided in the kitchen. Along with the essential stainless steel appliances, a microwave, coffee maker, toaster, and dishwasher are provided. All you have to bring along are your groceries and you'll have budget-friendly meals all week long. The dining room table, with its overly comfortable chairs and bench seat, is great for more than just meals together. Bring board games or crafts to keep you happily occupied in between beach trips. After a long day of wake-boarding lessons at the Mission Bay Aquatic Center, relax on the leather sofa while watching a show on the flatscreen cable TV. WiFi is also included here, so sharing photos of your epic vacation is a must. Head out to the balcony to take in the breathtaking ocean view before heading out for a night on the town. You won't want to leave your furry family members at home for this incredible vacation. And with Ocean Beach Dog Beach only half a mile away from this home, your dogs (up to three dogs each under 25 pounds) will even beg for a return trip. Please keep in mind that there is a nightly pet fee. This listing includes the upstairs studio condo, but there are two other condos in the same building that you can rent if desired! The other upstairs rental, the one-bedroom Ocean Beach Pier #3, sleeps up to four guests. Downstairs is the two-bedroom Ocean Beach Pier #1. Please click the individual links to see the other two condos or to rent them or call La Jolla Vacation Rentals for additional information. Take a stroll down Ocean Beach Pier, located just a few hundred yards away. Surf, boogie board, build sand castles, and simply relax under the sunny skies of Southern California. Take a much needed break from cooking your own meals and try any of the amazing eateries within walking distance. Hodad's is a local favorite and has some of the best burgers you'll ever taste. Or drive six miles into San Diego and bring your dog along to try delicious food at the Lazy Dog Restaurant. Sea World is less than three miles away. Mission Beach is just over three miles away, and endless shopping can be found at Gaslamp Quarter and Seaport Village eight miles southeast. Don't miss out on visiting Balboa Park for educational museums, entrancing gardens, and the San Diego Zoo. Take on a new view of San Diego when you stay at this vibrant vacation rental. THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW: No Smoking is allowed inside any of our properties. This home is equipped with A/C. For homes that allow pets there are certain rules that always apply. Pets are never to be left alone in the homes unattended. If you plan to spend time away from your pet please find a doggy daycare. You can call our office for recommendations. Pet Fee: $40/Night This unit is located across from the beach and in the Village area of Ocean Beach so you will have normal street noise and village noise. If this does not suit you, please do not rent this location. This home is located adjacent to 2 other units so we ask our guests to respect those other guests and keep the noise level down to a minimum. Our rental agreement includes a no tolerance policy regarding excessive noise, occupancy and/or parties. Deposit forfeitures and/or evictions are strictly enforced. Ocean Beach lies in the San Diego International Airport flight path for some departing flights. No planes can depart after 11:30 pm or before 6:30 am. Laundry facilities will be located at the OB Hotel across the street. You have access to their coin laundry facilities.

Maybe this was my fault. But lots of homelessness. No privacy on outside deck, there is a three story restaurant to the right of you that has a great view into your patio. Drum circle until 10 pm one night which was fun to watch and listen to. Drug addicts crawling on the sidewalks were hard to explain to a 3-5 year old. The mattresses need to be changed. They seemed old and broken down. Our backs were killing us after one night. Other than that this place is awesome!! I will be back for a girls trip or just my husband and I. Your so close to the beach and restaurants and shopping. I didn’t try to cook or do to much in the kitchen but having a fridge and microwave were nice. Over all this place is great.

great location right on the main drag for OB. Overlooking little park and ocean - nobody between the balcony & the cool ocean breezes!! Room is also very well appointed - the pictures do tell the story.

We had a wonderful stay here - an easy walk to Dog Beach with the pups and our beach gear. Our favorite part was sitting on the balcony/deck, which overlooks a little grass park area and the beach! Lots of people watching in OB. And the sounds of the ocean are fantastic. It's important to know that this unit is right in the middle of it all - sandwiched between Ocean Beach hotel and a restaurant shopping area. Also, the grass area across the street is home to a bunch of street vendors and random people playing the drums, etc. We loved this... until about 11pm when the drum circle was still going strong - so this isn't really an escape/relaxation place to stay. Finally, the oven is out of service though the stove works just fine. The fridge/freezer is also smaller than regular size (and a couple shelves are broken in the fridge). This wasn't an issue for us for just a couple of days, but if we were staying longer it might have been a bit annoying. All in all, we would definitely recommend staying here!

Parking is awful if you have to park in the curb drop off and light pole car damage parking spot. It should be posted NO PARKING in these 3 spots because your company kept texting me all day that I was in someones spot, when your directions clearly state no checking in until 4pm. I was in Escondido and sight seeing all day until check in time. YOU SHOULD HAVE HANDLED IT IN PERSON OR CALLED THE POLICE if an unknow car is in the spot. You clearly know what it is like down there. A dirty disgusting circus filled with urine, feces, human and dog, prostitution, homeless people everywhere...that was our Wednesday night welcome. AND A VENDOR AT THE SO CALLED BIZARRE WAS IN A SPOT THE ENTIRE DAY AND NIGHT. I SENT YOU PICTURES OF THEIR CAR AND LICENSE PLATE....BUT HOW DID THAT HELP US? We had an extended Jeep Gladiator that barely could get into the only parking spot free, the curb drop off spot. For the amount of money we paid to stay there it's a hell hole. Your stair way had cobwebs and dead bugs, I have pictures of your pillow cases with dirty black lines on them because it looks like your laundry service washed it with a feather duster, of which a feather was glued stuck to one of the pillow cases. It could be a lot cleaner. There is cobwebs and dust on the table chandelier glass bulbs hanging over the table, gross, brown grime around the bathroom window, NO BEACH CHAIRS ON PREMISES. And the non stop partying with the bongo drum loop that played all night during their beach raving played until late into the night. So that was Wednesday. Thursday I got to see all the homeless people again right in front of the VRBO hanging out all day, in front of the beach bathroom their were obvious drug deals going on, dog poop on the sidewalk, etc...I know you obviously cannot control the homeless and mentally ill population in the town, and I myself am in social services, but I paid a lot of money for a honeymoon stay in a less than desirable place. The actual inside is okay, but can be cleaner and updated for the money you charge. I am also a degreed paralegal so I understand contracts, and I do not believe you fulfilled your end of the contract on the property inside and out. You keep out accurate information and did not fulfill on what you promised. Having stated that, I would like some compensation returned to my credit card. I could have stayed on Coronado Island for 3 nights and felt safe and been in a clean enviro for what I paid at your rental.

The location is unbeatable for shopping and restaurants. As well as very close walk to an excellent dog beach. However, be warned, Ocean Beach (OB) is not for everyone. Coming from Los Angeles, where we are used to the homeless issue, it wasn't quite as shocking, however, there is still quite an uptick in homeless and drug users around the property.

This is a great Ocean Beach property! Smack dab right in the middle of all the OB busyness and a people watchers paradise! A stones throw from the beach and tide pools and walking distance to restaurants and local market.The neighbors are super friendly and made us feel like locals! If you like lot's of peace and quiet, this is not for you but it was a great play to stay for me and my family! Inside the unit, it is quiet considering how busy the areas is. The unit had everything we needed but we mostly did take out food to enjoy on the deck!Property managers are great communicators and I would highly recommend this place!

MAGNIFICENT VIEW
Perfect view of ocean, abundance of good restaurants and well stocked grocery stores. Homeless situation is appalling, men sleeping directly in front of property all day, urinating in full view and no enforcement by police to remove them.

Okay
Property itself was great, but neighborhood was less than ideal. There were countless homeless people camped out 24/7 in the ocean park in front of the condo. Not something the property owner can control but did impact our trip.

Great location and view
The location was a great proximity to the beach and village. We enjoyed walking to the eatery’s, shops and boutiques. The patio was our favorite part of the property. Sunset is the perfect time to catch the beauty of the ocean and great people watching.

Ocean Beach Stay
We enjoyed the stay. This is the 3rd time to stay here but on the top level. It was a little warm. The air-condition unit did not cool it as well as it did in the down stairs unit. It was very clean and updated. The stove must have had some grease on the racks. We tried cooking a pizza and when it was set to come out a large flame came out of the oven, which we had to put out with the fire extinguisher. A large group of people checked into the unit at 1AM and started partying. They became very load at 3:30AM and called the number the report, which there was no answer or response. I understood that there was to be no one partying in these units so this was very upsetting to me. I called the police to come and get them to control the noise. My family Loves this place but if there are parties that are being allowed we will have to find a different place to rent. I also was upset that I never was able to talk directly to someone about the noise. The prior two years when I called, someone always answered my calls.

Clean and basically on the Beach
This was honestly so great. Easy to find. Parking was right in front of the building. We were right next to 2-3 awesome bars for breakfast, lunch, or dinner (they were not loud). I would definitely be back if we come back to ocean beach. There is a really low key vibe in the OB which really fit this spot. We had a small issue with the pilot light on the oven (I would suggest having it checked), but we were able to manually light it. I would also say we walked by a number of other studio beach homes and this was one of the best and if you are looking for beach front this one is a stones throw from the sand literally. I think the best part was being able to have a cocktail on the back porch around sunset and watching the surfers near the pier. This seemed to be a pretty popular surfing spot by comparison to mission beach or pacific beach which was really cool to watch. I would 100% recommend to any friend or family looking for a place to stay on the beach in SD.
