It features a fabulous white-water view of the ocean and sunset view from the large private balcony with a granite bar. Comfortable chairs allow you to enjoy the view while having breakfast outside or a glass of wine while watching the sunset followed by dinner cooked on your own private gas BBQ just outside the kitchen door. This home is the sunny & fresh top floor unit in a four unit complex. The entire building was just remodeled in the summer of 2007 and tastefully furnished with all new furniture, beds, appliances, linens, dishes, gas BBQs, patio furniture, etc.
** If you are traveling with another family or larger group, please consider renting 2 or more of the units in this 4 unit complex. All units are 2 bedroom, 1 bath and can sleep up to 5 people in each unit. If you rent all 4 units together, your family of 20 will have individual space and privacy, but be right there on the same property and able to enjoy quality family time together.
The Whale is the only upstairs unit and has windows on all four sides, making it very light and cheery. is The living room offers a warm cozy fireplace, leather couch and love seat, flat screen television with full cable channels and DVD player. The wireless Internet and digital phone line insures that you can keep in touch with work and family and look up what to do and where to go in San Diego if you bring a laptop with you. The fully equipped kitchen comes complete with granite countertops, maple cabinets, travertine flooring, dishwasher, oven and stove, microwave, coffee maker, waffle maker, blender, juicer, etc. The bathroom is a full bath with tub and shower, granite counter tops, beautiful maple cabinets, and travertine flooring.
Each bedroom has a Queen size bed, full closet, dresser, bedside lamps, alarm clocks, ceiling fans and flat screen television with full cable channels. In the closet, there is an additional single size futon mat for additional guests. All linens, including sheets, blankets, bed spreads, bath towels, beach towels, etc. are provided with your rental. All of our rentals are spotlessly clean, well maintained and we have tried to provide everything you will need for a fun and comfortable vacation at the beach.
You will not have to fight for parking at the beach as a private garage is provided for each unit (SUVs or oversize vehicles may not fit) with new garage doors and automatic garage door openers. There is also a free shared laundry room and a large shared patio area with gas BBQ, tables with umbrellas and chairs and lounge chairs. We also provide bicycles with locks, beach towels, boogie boards, beach chairs, coolers, beach umbrellas and sand toys, so that you can better enjoy the area the way we do. Plus for families with small children, we provide a pak-n-play crib, highchair and noise monitor with the rental of each home. You can also rent additional items such as a full size crib, jogging stroller, etc. for an additional delivery fee. We can also arrange to have food and dairy products delivered to the home prior to your arrival. Your order will be charged to your credit card. To cancel or change your order, please contact us before 5pm PST the day prior to your arrival. For a complete list of items available, please contact us.
Take an early morning stroll on the beach, just a half block away, before heading out for a day of San Diego sightseeing. Most tourist destinations such as Sea World, the Zoo and Balboa Park, The Gas Lamp District, The Embarcadero with it's Maritime museums, Sea Port Village, Point Loma, La Jolla and Old Town are all within 3-8 miles. In the evening, return to catch the sunset and maybe a glimpse of the green flash while enjoying the cool Pacific off-shore breezes at Law Street Palisades Park or, a little closer to home, right on the front patio.
You will be just three houses from Law Street Palisades Park which several San Diego websites list as the "Best Beach Overlook." This two-block long patch of lush green grass, with several shaded benches, overlooks the sandy beach from the top of a 25 foot cliff but there is easy access to the beach below via a ramp which is an extension of Law St. It is a favorite spot for observing the wide white-sand beach below and the endless numbers of surfers and sail-boarders displaying their skills at wave-ridding, just off-shore. The park is also a favorite for picnickers and sunset watchers and has restrooms and outdoor showers. The nearest surf break is Tourmaline Beach, and has some of the best surfing around. Fun to watch, or join in the waves with lessons available from world class surfers.

This was our second year staying at this property, our first time staying at the Whale. The view was beautiful and the location is perfect. The property is very clean and has everything you need for a great vacation at the beach. It is also a close walk to Kono's, where we love to have breakfast!
