Vacation rentals with beach access in Hillcrest, San Diego

If you are able to bike/walk, this place is amazing! Quick access to the beach and bay and close to many local shops and restaurants!

We really loved staying here. it was sooo close to the beach and awesome coffee shops. We will most definitely stay again!!!!

This place was an absolute gem. Waking up to the sound of the waves and being able to walk everywhere made our stay so relaxing. It's the kind of spot where the beach feels like your backyard and adventure is always just around the corner. Falling asleep to the ocean breeze was pure magic. All in all, a fantastic escape — we’d recommend it in a heartbeat.

Clean, quiet, and cozy. 10/10 would stay again.

Pretty much perfect. Location is just stupid perfect. Walk right over to the Del Coronado, right to the beach, right to coffee. The place is perfect for a couples romantic stay. I plan on going back each year. I would suggest using their parking at the B of A right next door. Totally worth it. I really have zero bad things to say. Value A+. Easy A+ Clean A+. Safety A+++++. Lobster rolls across the street A+. Buzzed coffee around the corner A++++. I’ll be back.

We had a lovely stay at Rob’s. The location is impossible to beat with amazing restaurants, bars and coffee shops all in walking distance. The space is small as it is a studio but it was perfect for a long weekend with myself and my husband. Communication was extremely fast and everything was smooth as can be with our hosts!

We are relatively new to using Airbnb properties and its refreshing to stay at a property that perfectly matched its listing description. The unit was sized just right for my wife and I, immaculately clean with everything in working order, was an easy walk down to the beach (10 minutes), freeway access was simple, and was very peaceful. John was the perfect host and responded immediately when we reached out to him. It was a very nice long weekend!

Molly is very friendly and responsive. Her place was just as clean as shown in the pictures, in a great location, and easy to park at. She also provides a guidebook that is clear and helpful, we tried some of the recommended restaurants, and the check-in and check-out instructions were easy to follow.

We had a fantastic time at Jill's beach bungalow. It worked very nicely for our family of four. Everything was clean and the location was perfect to walk for delicous food and a very short drive for groceries. Jill was easy to reach and was very helpful. Definitely will stay here again!!!

The location is unbeatable!! Neighbors were friendly and we felt so safe! We loved the upstairs perch and the common area that was outside!

Had a blast! Nice, clean place to stay that is close to an amazing view.

We loved our stay at Carolyn’s place. The place was extremely clean and cozy, and had so much character. The location was perfect for sightseeing of the city as it was pretty central. We had a bit of difficulty with locking the place, but Carolyn was quick to respond and we were able to get it resolved quickly. Great stay, highly recommend!!

We had an amazing week at Susie’s place! The apartment was perfect for my husband and I. Everything was clean and as described. The bed was comfy and we loved the kitchen and outdoor deck. The location was great - we were able to walk everywhere in PB and uber to places easily. We loved exploring the local coffee shops and walking up to the beach for sunset. We had a great week in San Diego and the apartment made it perfect.

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Kensington Cottage. The cottage was clean, well-appointed and plenty spacious enough for two adults and a four year old. We loved sitting in the courtyard near the succulent garden, mornings at the kitchen table as the sun and through the window and watching TV on the nice big sofa. We were able to walk to restaurants and the park and Kensington is very centrally located. I highly recommend this location. It will be our go-to when we visit again.

This is a real gem! It’s spacious, immaculately clean, and loaded with everything you could possibly need.

This was by far the best Airbnb experience I’ve ever had. The cottage is elegantly but comfortable decorated, linens high quality, kitchen well equipped, bathroom well designed with plenty of counter space for a small room. A heated toilet seat and bidet were appreciated! The entire property is beautifully landscaped and the little garden in back is serene. The overall design and layout are like something out of Architectural Digest. We will definitely stay here again when we are back in the area.

Super cute studio and super clean as well. Easy walk to beach, bay and parks. The parking was super easy and clear, with plenty of room. Karen was a very responsive host and got some check in questions answered quickly. Would recommend.

We had a great stay! loved the patio and being able to enjoy a view of the ocean. walkable to resteraunts and shopping and having a dedicated parking spot is great! Would definitely recommend staying !

Thank you for opening your space for our family, great location. 5 min walk to the beach, quiet and safe environment

Wonderful stay! The place was clean and had everything we needed for a week long visit to San Diego. The hosts were very responsive and accommodating. Easy walk to the beach and many local eateries. Would definitely recommend this place to others!

My family & I had a cherished time & we totally agree with Tooraj’s “ good vibes only” theme! The place is adorably decorated & my husband loved the real life record player, he put it on first thing ;) We appreciated all of the games & the paddle ball, all my boys had fun with that especially & I loved hearing them laugh while playing together on the beach . It truly is an exceptional place, so peaceful & so close to more action when ya want it. We spent one day at a behind the scenes tour at the safari park & the other day at the zoo, then both evenings were spent on the ocean side, Belmont park, Cannon Ball restaurant, last night we got Mexican food to go & brought it back to this darling, peaceful & truly lovely place. I also want to give a shout out to all of his neighbors, they were all so very kind & friendly;) Thank you with all our hearts Tooraj for sharing your good vibes and giving my family a special place to create cherished memories together. We are grateful 💝🙏

Fransico was very responsive and helpful. We had a great stay. The location was perfect and central to so many things. Would recommend.

Very nice place. Instructions were very clear and easy to follow. If ever in San Diego again, my family will definitely stay here again.

We had an amazing stay at Nicklas’s place in San Diego! The condo is beautifully renovated and right on the waterfront—waking up to those ocean views was such a treat. The kitchen and bathroom were fully stocked with everything we needed, making our stay super comfortable and convenient. You can tell a lot of thought has gone into making the space feel like a true home away from home. We would absolutely love to stay here again in the future. Highly recommend!
