Cottage rentals with a hot tub

The Avocado Hut- Private Guesthouse, HOT TUB!
Really enjoyed our stay. Lovely neighborhood. ( neighbor cut me one of her roses)Easy to get around. Ocean Beach so close. I would like to recommend that some safety bars placed in the shower. It was slippery Also, microwave was difficult to get at on top of the fridge for us short er folks. But the stay was wonderful. Would recommend it to others!

Crown Point Gem with Salt Water Pool
I was looking for a place for spring break with a pool and Aurrora's place was perfect! Has everything you need, is easy to locate, and is in such a great location. I would book again!

La Jolla Shores redwood beach cottage
100% Wonderful! Lovely cottage. Very clean and pretty. Everything you need is there & in good working order. Beautiful gardens, peaceful, safe. Hot tub was hot and well maintained. Walk to coffee shops, restaurants, and the gorgeous beach. We had a very, very good experience here. Thank you. Highest recommendations.

Dragonfly Cottage - In the Heart of San Diego
We had a great stay at this apartment. The kids and I especially loved the hot tub, which was a fun and relaxing way to wind down each evening. I didn’t get a chance to try the sauna, but it’s a nice extra touch. The apartment was clean and comfortable, and the kitchen was well-equipped. I also appreciated that the owners provided tea and coffee for their guests. While the apartment is technically suitable for more, I’d recommend it for no more than two people, as the sofa bed wasn’t the most comfortable for sleeping. The location was excellent, and we had no trouble finding parking right in front of the house. Finally, the host was very responsive and attentive. Overall, I would highly recommend this place.

2 BED/1 BA Coastal Haven in SD
My family loved this place! It is walking distance to the beach, coffee shops, eateries and convenience stores. You'll get used to the airplanes flying overhead every 20 minutes (and they don't fly after about 11 pm, so that's nice). Check in, and out, was super easy. We're already planning on coming back for summer!!!!

Sunset Paradise with Ocean view & May Special now!
Loved this cute cottage sanctuary steps from the beach and boardwalk! It was incredibly well-stocked for 3 adults who cooked all our meals at the house. We loved the patio for mealtimes and relaxing. The hot tub was lovely and hosts provided proactive instructions to maintain how nice and clean it was! Bathroom was clean, too. We appreciated the beach supplies available. No kids in our group, but we noticed how the Airbnb was stocked with many toys and supplies! Walkable to plenty of restaurants, coffeeshops, bars, and grocery store. Andrea was super helpful and reached out over text to ensure a smooth check-in. Highly recommend and would definitely stay here again!

2BR Carlsbad Home Near Beach w/Shared Pool & Spa
This house was adorable, clean and in a great location. If it’s going to be hot while you stay, the house does get very warm in the late afternoon and takes a while to cool back down when the sun goes down. Kitchen was well stocked for cooking. There were plenty of beach towels and extra towels. We had a great experience and would stay again given the opportunity.

LOFT: Detached Cottage with Patio
We stayed a week and this small house had everything two people needed for a very pleasant stay. It is very comfortable, relaxed, but also clean and tidy. There were many small touches that made it special. Location put you right in the midst of coffee shops and restaurants.

Family and Pet Friendly Beach Bungalow
Russell was an amazing host. went above and beyond and it was truly appreciated. Great location and a perfect space for a weekend vacation!

Cozy 1br Cottage in Trendy South Park
This is our 2nd time staying at Devon’s and it was as wonderful as the first time. Easy check-in, it has everything we need, and super convenient location. We’ll likely stay there for a 3rd time.

Peaceful & Cheerful 3bd in Sunny Pacific Beach, CA
Perfect little home base while visiting SD! Would definitely recommend.

Charming coastal cottage Dogs free, 3 blocks ocean
This place is so cute! It is on a busy street and the host was aware and provided ear plugs and a sound machine! It was the perfect size just for me and I was able to get my work done and stay comfortably. I would recommend to friends and family.

Dog friendly California Cottage near SDSU
I recently visited Victor’s house for a month. The house was exactly as pictured and he was very responsive throughout my stay. I brought along three medium-large sized dogs. The yard was perfect for them. It was difficult to find a place in SD to stay with bigger dogs, let alone that has a fully-fenced yard, but it exceeded my expectations. I was also able to cook, given all of the kitchen utensils. There was even some spices, coffee, and a Brita to use. There were various kitchen gadgets available as well. Never having experienced CA before, I never gave parking a second thought. Victor’s place is great because it has a driveway, guaranteeing a spot no matter the time of day. Victor was thorough, friendly, and accommodating. If I were to visit again, I would definitely stay here!

Private cozy cottage
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.

2b-Oceanview Pet Friendly Encinitas Beach Cottage
Had the best time at Lance’s place! He was super responsive and helpful, check in was a breeze and the place looked even better than the photos! A cozy spot very close to bars, restaurants, shops and the water!

Mari’s Sunshine Cottage
Quaint little respite just outside of the city in a rural vibe. Hosts were very responsive and even helpful when I needed to borrow a chock for my car! The parking space is on a slight incline and my handbrake isn’t the best. Still worked out great. You get used to the toilet paper situation. The nature makes up for it :)

One bedroom Cottage at Blue Heron Cottages
Property is well kept and we really enjoyed our stay! Perfect place to relax! The common area was great for our dog to roam! Highly recommend for your fur baby! Thank you Denise!

Boho Bungalow | Cozy Hideaway | Walk Everywhere!
Great location and cute bungalow. It was a perfect spot for me and my daughter.

Private Beach Getaway w/ Ocean Views!
I found it refreshing that there wasn't a request for cleaning as a guest on top of a cleaning fee charge. Place was great overall and in a convenient location! Thanks Matt.

Point Loma Beachy Cottage
We had a few great days at Robert's accommodation. The fridge was filled with delicious drinks and there were snacks in the kitchen. The accommodation was clean and well equipped and the location was great. You are quickly in downtown and on the beach, supermarket and restaurants are within walking distance.

Aqua-Sun-Kissed Shores -Cozy Beach Cottage
This was our second stay at Rachel’s listing. We had a wonderful time as usual! It’s in a great location and walkable to the beach and the bay! We were able to find parking whenever we needed it as well close by. Rachel was super responsive and provided us with what we needed and more! The house is extremely clean and comfy. Hope to be back again for a 3rd time!!! Thanks Rachel!!!!

Charming Encinitas Beach Cottage- ocean views!
I have nothing but amazing things to say about Lauri and Lauri's cozy beach cottage. Amazing location walkable to the beach and downtown Encinitas/Cardiff, clean home with charm. Would absolutely recommend, and stay here again. Lauri was also so kind and helpful if needed. :)

HideAway - Cottage Retreat in Village
Deanna was such an amazing host and her property was so stunning and comfortable. I cannot speak highly enough about my experience/ stay with Deanna. Not only was her communication amazing but the property was in the perfect location and comfortable in an unparalleled way I haven’t experienced before with an Airbnb stay. I will absolutely be staying here again, already planning my next visit. Thank you SO much for everything Deanna!
