A great value for a beachfront property. Plenty of shops, restaurants and bars that you can walk to. Convenient to Downtown and the airport. Not a posh resort but very clean and comfy.

We came here on a quick weekend getaway. When we pulled up, we were pretty unsure about The Beach Cottages but when we got into our room we were delighted. It's right in the heart of the Pacific Beach area and so close to the beach. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and the staff were very friendly and took care of our every need.

The check in was probably the most efficient and easiest check in I have ever experienced. The staff was nice and helpful. The room I stayed in was a little dated but extremely clean. There is no A/C but there is a ceiling fan and that combined with the weather and ocean breeze kept it cool enough. I can’t say enough good about the location and how close to the ocean it was. My family and I will definitely be staying again when we come back to California.

Adorable cozy room with a screened sliding door with an incredible view of the beach. The sound of the ocean waves from our room was lovely. Access just minutes away. So easy and awesome. Cute shops to grab souvenirs and great quality hoodies, great restaurants and an ice cream shop too. Ralph’s is right across the street to grab munchies and Starbucks coffee. Perfect location!!! This was the perfect place to stay for one night while touring SDSU with my daughter. Some reviews complained about the small size of the rooms but if you are not big people with a ton of stuff, it’s great. Very well priced too for being beachfront!

Great location and customer service but the place hasn’t been updated in a while. Very dated decor with old wallpaper, rusty bathroom fixtures, etc. but the place is clean and has beachfront access, which is fantastic.

You simply cannot beat the location of this hotel!! I was so happy to be right on the beach, and was in walking distance to everything! The only thing is that my room was above the restaurant below and it was a little loud until around midnight, but that didn’t bother me much - just something to note! I will absolutely be staying here again.
