Pet-friendly holiday rentals in Mission Bay

This was our second stay at Aaron’s Airbnb, and once again, it was perfect for our family — myself, my parents, and my two young kids. The home had everything we needed for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. The kitchen was fully stocked, which made cooking meals easy, and the beds were super comfortable. Heating and cooling worked great, and everything was spotless when we arrived. We especially loved the private patio — such a great space to relax. The location is incredible: close to shops and restaurants, yet tucked away in a quiet area, and just one block from the beach. There were so many thoughtful extras, too, like beach chairs, toys, and board games that made the stay even more enjoyable. Aaron is a fantastic host — friendly, responsive, and easy to communicate with. I highly recommend this Airbnb and can’t wait to come back!

We had the best time. Literally 1 minute walk to dog beach. Thank you for hosting us.

the apartment was fantastic! Situated in a quiet area of Ocean beach, it was a short walk to the various pubs and restaurants. it was also a short drive to the old town transit centre where parking was free and the metro was easy to get for all the tourist spots in downtown San Diego. you could on the road or if you couldn't find a close space, in the garage at the rear of the property. my wife and I stayed for a week and a thoroughly enjoyable time. I couldn't recommend this Airbnb highly enough. it was great

We had a lovely stay at Chris’ Airbnb. It’s a lovely, very clean and well furnished home. It is small but worked perfectly for the 2 of us. It’s located in a very quiet and safe neighborhood. Chris is a very responsive host and has thought of almost all the amenities a guest might need. We will certainly stay here again

We rented Gabe’s 3 bed/2 bath house in UH and it was fantastic! Our family of 5 stayed a week and truth be told, I wanted to stay forever! From the beginning Gabe was extremely cordial and promptly responded to our questions. The house was exactly like the pictures posted. We loved Gabe’s artistic decor style. We appreciated the privacy of the rooms and having a European style restroom in the MS was a plus. The beds were very comfy, and we didn’t really need the AC, but appreciated it’s availability. Whatever we needed to feel at home, this place had it, from multiple clean towels, crisp linens, makeup towels (I didn’t use it but nice detail) to a Keurig, and condiments. We enjoyed making breakfast at the house as a family. We didn’t use the shared jacuzzi. Maybe next time! Plenty of parking in the area in this quiet quaint neighbor in the heart of UH walking distance from grocery stores and restaurants. We had a great time. Felt right at home. Can’t wait to come back! Thanks Gabe!

Amazing airbnb with plenty to offer such as 4 beds as well as kitchenwares and toiletries! My friends and I felt right at home with this airbnb. Melissa was great at communicating too, which made the check in and check out processes much easier!

We had a fantastic stay here. The location was excellent—so close to the beach, coffee shops, and restaurants in both mission beach and pacific beach. We had 6 adults staying and didn’t feel cramped. We especially enjoyed sitting on the patio. We had no problem parking a Honda civic and Kia sportage side by side. The host was very responsive. Would definitely recommend!

Zina’s place is great like always! Not far from the airport. Private and safe felt right at home. Absolutely love staying here!

Wonderful home and lovely amenities/views! We found everything comfortable and totally enjoyable too.

Excellent experience. The hosts were very attentive, responsive and easy to communicate with. The property is stunning. Thumbs up.

House was clean and comfortable. Check in and check out went smoothly. Communication was great with the owner. Perfectly accommodated our family and location was great. We loved that Better Buzz was within walking distance for a coffee! Grocery store and restaurants also close by. Would highly recommend this rental!

Our second stay at this house. Rebooked because we LOVE the outdoor pool/hot tub space with a view, grill and outdoor lounge and tv area. Pool towels are provided and it’s really just the best. Well cared for and clean. Plenty of kitchen cabinet space with everything you need to enjoy a meal, coffee, wine, etc. beds are comfy, decor is super cool. We ate at some nearby great places this trip: Crest, Books+Records, Bread and Cie. We had a blast thrift shopping at Buffalo Exchange which was nearby too. Airport is so close which made departure super easy for us too. Hope to return again!

Bruce is an amazing host. very comfortable stay and very clean. Quick to answer any questions. he even had a guitar for my son to play. we loved the backyard and the pool table. Definitely would stay again

Very much enjoyed staying here! Nice and clean space, and host was great! Loved being in the heart of Pacific Beach!

Great house. It looks like the pictures. On our last morning there, we noticed a second thermostat in the upstairs hallway. Likely a dual zone AC that I wish we had realized lol. We paid for the heated pool and the water was very warm. The fridge stopped getting cold, but there are 2 more fridges in the house. The hosts also had an appliance guy come out the following day to fix the fridge. We are happy with our choice.

Brian was very nice and responsive no matter what time I had a question. The house was just as the photos pictured. Unfortunately, we couldn’t get the fir pit on but Brian was willing to come fix it right away. Weather wasn’t on our side so we didn’t rush him. We got a lot of compliments from family about how neat it was that Brian had a coffee bar and snack cart set up. Everyone had plenty of room to sleep and enjoyed their stay.

We had an awesome stay at Rich and Adrienne’s cozy place with 2 young kids. The house was super well organized and very clean. We were able to find everything we needed. The beds were very comfy, with good quality sheets, towels were good quality too. Rich and Adrienne live right next door but the place felt very private. Easy walk to the beach, and a short walk to really nice restaurants. Outdoor shower was great when walking back from the beach. Even though the weather was foggy during our stay, we still were able to enjoy OB and had a great time!

Here's a possible Airbnb review: This hidden villa was a fantastic find! The location was perfect – close to all the best that San Diego has to offer. We were able to easily explore the city's attractions and restaurants. The enclosed yard was private and relaxing. And the swing? It was the perfect spot to unwind after a day of adventures. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a comfortable and convenient stay in SD!"

Zachary’s home was a perfect location for our family get together. Would recommend to our friends and will definitely be back.

We had an amazing stay at the "Sundial" property in La Mesa! The property was exactly as described in the photos—beautifully maintained and full of charm. It was spotless upon arrival, which made it feel so welcoming and comfortable. The host was incredibly responsive and helpful, ensuring we had everything we needed for a perfect stay. The location was also fantastic, making it easy to explore the area. All San Diego attractions were within a short 15-20 minute drive away. I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing and stress-free getaway.

We have stayed with Lisa multiple times in the past year. It’s like a home away from home. Very easy to get to and convenient to visiting friends and family. Very quiet neighborhood and cozy place inside.

This was a great place to stay. The backyard was a great hang out spot and the location is prime. Also the bedding and pillows felt really nice and expensive!

The pictures on the website were a good representation of the property! Olga has a green thumb, and her gardens were absolutely beautiful! She communicated clearly and responded quickly. Instructions were all clear and check-in was simple. We truly appreciated the treats awaiting our arrival:) The house had everything we needed, the beds were comfortable, the TV and wifi instructions were all readily available. This home is in a beautiful neighborhood that allowed for walking to several options for coffee, wine, and meals. The home was truly pet-friendly, and Olga was a welcoming hostess! We'll definitely visit again!

We had an amazing little staycation over the weekend at the Violet Oasis. Extremely clean, the bed was so comfy we never wanted to leave, both parking locations easy to find and Elizabeth and Paola were super responsive. Rather than feel like we were staying at an Airbnb it felt like staying over at a friend’s place. Their passion responding to their guests, making them feel at home and providing information on what to do in the area really shows in this listing. We will be back!
