About

A 2-bedroom, 1-bath beach cottage on 5027 Lotus St, Lotus Beach Cottage books on Airbnb as Casa Lotus with 3 sleep spaces including a pullout couch, two bikes stocked on-site, and stand-up paddleboards for the half-mile roll down to Dog Beach. The cottage sits one block off Voltaire St and roughly a half mile from Newport Ave, with a gated front yard fronted by a commissioned local-artist mural that doubles as the street-facing address marker — guests who want traditional surfboards beyond the provided SUPs walk three blocks to South Coast Surf Shop Ocean Beach to demo shortboards or longboards before hitting the OB jetty breaks. Electronic door locks eliminate the key handoff entirely; confirmed guests receive a door code 24 hours before a 3 PM check-in. Inside amenities include an N64 console with controllers, a smart TV with Netflix, an in-unit washer and dryer, and a water dispenser, with a fenced back patio built around a fire pit and outdoor lounge chairs. A short Voltaire St morning walk leads to Newbreak Coffee & Cafe for the pre-beach breakfast and espresso routine before the bike ride to the sand. The complex bookings here are extended stays for small families who combine the private yard and fire pit with SUP-and-bike access to Dog Beach, run through a minimum-age-21 renter policy and an only-toilet-paper-flushed plumbing protocol to protect the cottage's original drain lines.
