Very efficient check-in. If you want to stay on the beach, this is the place for you. Walk out the back gate and you’re there. The single rooms are small but they managed to get everything you need in, and who’s going to be spending all that much time in the room anyway. There are a variety of other room options though, and even the namesake cottages for large groups.

This place was wonderful. I stayed in one of the apartments facing the ocean. It was HUGE with a full kitchen, large dining table, large living room and very comfortable beds. The property couldn’t be in a better location. Everything is walking distance. The owners do an amazing job at keeping this beachfront property clean and safe.

The cottages are in a great location on Pacific Beach. The check-in process was easy and the rooms were clean with plenty of towels. The provided fans were a nice touch along with opening the balcony door to keep the room nice and cool. It was easy to fall asleep every night with the sound of the ocean right outside the door. Lots of great dining options within walking distance. Will stay here again.

Perfect escape
Well that was fun. Looking for a weekday escape from the desert and celebrate Valentines Day. Did not disappoint. Easy check in. Room and bed in nice shape. Partial beach view as indicated. Great price. Friendly front desk and house keeping. Convenient to many restauarants, and the beach. Will plan to come back again.
