Mermaid Cottage with Ocean View

The adorable Mermaid Cottage is the perfect spot for a relaxing getaway or excellent space to unwind if you are visiting for business. Recently remodeled top to bottom and outfitted with 2 fabulous outdoor spaces. Watch sunsets and view the ocean horizon from the rear patio. The front patio awaits right off the living room with fire pit to take the chill out of the evening air.

I am readily available by text and phone. Should you need me in person, I live nearby.
This is a personal residence. The will be a locked owners closet.
The property is technically a "twin home" where you share one wall (on the garage side).

Beautiful home

Four of us stayed at this property for a girlfriend’s weekend getaway. The decor is beautiful, the house was clean, and the host was very attentive. We enjoyed our stay and wish we could have stayed longer.

Nice neighborhood location

The property was clean and comfortable. I didn’t even notice the beautiful deck out back bc we were busy and the weather wasn’t great but it would be a great spot to hang out.

Obsessed and in love with this home.

This house was amazing. The beds were insanely comfortable. Clean and new and bright and happy. The back yard was a dream to relax after a work day. I wish I came to San Diego more often because I would stay in the home every single time. Oh and the owner was so lovely and kind to communicate with.
