There are many things to love about San Diego, from its laid-back vibes to its stunning coastline. But when it comes to choosing a place to stay, many visitors opt for a hotel rather than a vacation rental like a cottage. Here are four reasons why cottages make the perfect home-base for exploring this vibrant California city:

1. Cottages are more affordable than hotels.

2. Cottages come with fully equipped kitchens, so you can save money by cooking your own meals.

3. Cottages offer more space and privacy than hotels.

4. Cottages are situated in prime locations, close to all the best attractions and amenities.
