Mission Bay Hideaway - Sparkling New & Full of Amenities
Year Purchased: 2002
Why the Owner Chose Mission Bay
Our Mission Bay Hideaway, in North Mission Bay, affords the vacationer all the best of the San Diego Beach and Bay atmosphere. Virtually everything is within a very short walking distance: the beach and bay with every conceivable water sport, marinas, bicycle paths, children’s playground, dozens of excellent restaurants and night clubs, lots of shops, a modern supermarket, internet café, local library, Post Office, Metro Bus Stop, and an amusement park and combination gym, indoor pool and wavehouse recreation facility. Most nights of the year, you can watch the evening fireworks from Sea World, a few miles away. Most other attractions in and around San Diego are just a short drive away.
The Unique Benefits at this Apartment
Anyone who as stayed at rental with an absentee landlord knows the value of having him or her residing on the property. As resident landlords, we are available 24/7 if needed. We also try to anticipate every need before it arises. That's why we stock a canopy with lots of chairs for the beach, bicycles with combination locks, a kayak with life preservers, a cooler, hundreds of videos,lots of beach toys for all ages, and for the small ones, a high chair, porta-crib, car seat, small stroller, & shoulder baby carrier. The unit also has purified water at every tap, airbed for extra sleepers, a shopping cart for quick trips to the Ralphs supermarket, ceiling fans in every room for warmer days and a gas fireplace in the living room for cool nights. And that's all in addition to being steps away from both Mission Bay to the East and Mission Beach to the West.

Owner's Map of Mission Bay
Calina is a Native San Diegan, and Bill arrived in San Diego with the Navy in 1975. We married in 1977, and vowed to someday move to the Beach. We loved taking long walks on the bay or beach and watching gorgeous sunsets. We built our dream home in North Mission Beach in 2002 and built the first floor as an apartment for Calina’s parents. We made sure that Mom and Dad’s place had all the same modern conveniences as we had upstairs. When Mom and Dad decided to move further inland, we converted the apartment to a Vacation Rental. "Mission Bay Hideaway", is the newest, cleanest and nicest apartment in Mission Bay. Since then, we have had the pleasure of hosting hundreds of families, from all over the world, to enjoy wonderful vacations in Mom and Dad’s apartment. Bill & Calina, San Diego, CA

Entering Guest Comment from October 2004 from earlier guest book. 10/09/04 N/A Guest Comment Entered By Homeowner: Dear Calina & Bill, Thank you for letting me have "a home away from home" due to the hurricane in Florida on such short notice! As always, I as well as my family enjoyed your beautiful apartment. My grandchildren said "they love Calina & Bill's house." While we enjoyed Sea World, Museums, Flea Market & La Jolla, I also looked for a new home. Thank you for the use of your fax machine & for the wonderful dinner at P.F. Changs. Once I'm settled in my new home in Poway I will give you both a call. Many thanks for your kindness & hospitality. I sincerely appreciate it. Warm regards. Patti, Rick, Amie, Shaun, Ericka & Kyle.

Entering Guest Comments from earlier Guest Book 04/02/04 N/A Guest Comment Entered By Homeowner: “This place was ‘PERFECT’ for our Spring vacation! It was a lot nicer than we had imagined, from the outside to the comfortable furnishings inside. We loved the fireplace, grill, quality faucets, the compactor, and the most comfortable beds! … We went to Tijuana, Kobey’s Swap Meet, the Zoo, Sea World, Belmont Park, and lots of time on the Beach! There is still so much we want to do and see, so we will be visiting again and hope we can once again share your home. Marci, Charlene, Rachel & Chuck Illinois
