The Elsbree House is just steps away from the Ocean Beach Pier, the surfers in their wetsuits and the restaurants off the pier & in the downtown yet you are on a quiet palm lined street. The Inn itself is immaculate & very roomy - if you get the option stay in A-3; you usually have the sitting room all... More

Our stay at the Elsbree House Beach Bed & Breakfast was wonderful & relaxing. Our room was clean & comfortable. Breakfast was perfect, fresh fruit, cereal, eggs, home made breads, with great coffee & juice. We went to a Padre vs Angels baseball game, the ball field is near by & easy to get to. More

My husband and I had a very nice stay at this B&B in early March. There were lots of restaurants and a beach withing walking distance. The Inn keeper, Katie, had tons of wonderful advice on places to go, and things to see. The room was charming with our own outdoor patio. This B&B is well kept and has a... More

The Elsbree House is located in the Ocean Beach area of San Diego (about 15-20 minutes from downtown). Pluses 1. The B & B is 1 block from the ocean and less than 2 blocks from the pier. 2. Restaurants, bars, and antique stores are all within an easy walk. 3. Susan (who helps look after the inn) is delightful... More

If you like Bed and Breakfasts as an alternative to hotels, Elsbree House is great. It is well-located a block from the beach, with tons of restaurants and local dives within walking distance. The innkeeper, Katie, was wonderful and treated us so very well. Breakfasts are basic but all you need to get a great start on the day. More

Our son recently moved from downtown San Diego to Ocean Beach, so we looked for a place to stay near them. Since he left PA for college in 2004, we have stayed at lots of hotels in the SD area, but we have finally found the one we will come back to again and again. Our late arrival was no... More

Breakfasts were wonderfully and customized to our appeal. With a vinegar/apple allergy and vegetarian diet, she so easily accommodated us. Beds were comfortable. Surprized that the room didn't have a tv but then again, with going out and about, we did not need such. Very hospitable and friendly. Full of good information. Always willing to help. More
