Enjoy our newly remodeled and tastefully appointed 2 bedroom / 2 bathroom waterfront home as a fun family adventure or a quiet getaway. Our home is located on the exclusive, private and peaceful Bayside, as opposed to the crowded, and noisy Oceanside of Mission Beach. From your cozy beach retreat, you will experience some of the finest panoramic views of famous Mission Bay. Absolutely perfect for children - You can step from your very spacious patio directly onto the fine beach sand of Mission Bay, and not have to worry about crossing a street. ‘Bayside Walk’ is right at your doorstep (One of the most scenic walking and biking trails in Southern California that curves gently around Mission Bay). If you are looking to enjoy big ocean waves and the hustle and bustle of Mission Beach, it is only a 5 minute stroll away.
Start your day relaxing inside or outside with a cup of coffee, and watch a beautiful Bay sunrise. During the day, take advantage of 19 miles of sandy beaches, 14 miles of bike paths, a network of channels, islands, coves and wildlife preserves, including so many recreational activities that you could easily spend all your time at the bay without having to think about driving your car! When the sun goes down, fire up the BBQ, and look out over the blissfully quiet beach, and the tranquil, calm water of the bay. Before you turn in, enjoy a grand view of the explosive and spectacular SeaWorld fireworks right from your own patio.
The master bedroom has a queen-size bed, and is fitted with fine linens. There is a flat screen TV and DVD player. The bathroom is en-suite. You will enjoy stunning views of Mission Bay from your bed, or walk out of the sliding door onto your private patio that spills out directly to the beach.
The second bedroom has a bunk bed with a full-size bed on the bottom and a twin-size bed on the top. There is also a sofa that has a full-size trundle bed, suitable for 1 adult or 2 small children. Fine linens are provided for all beds. There is a flat screen TV and DVD player. The bathroom is en-suite, and there is a large walk-in closet.
The living room has a full-sized sofa bed and accompanying fine linens. There is a 46-inch flat screen TV with a DVD player and premium home theatre stereo surround sound. The stereo system also includes a 5-disc CD changer and an iPod docking cradle.
The kitchen is fully appointed with cooking, serving and dining ware. It has granite tops and new high-end appliances including stovetop, convection oven, microwave oven, fridge/freezer and dishwasher.
The dining area has a table that will seat 6 people, and can seat 8 using the extension leaf. A new wet bar with granite top is attached to the dining area.
There is a separate laundry room in the house, that has a washer and dryer.
High-Speed wireless internet is provided throughout the house, and will also work on the patio and beach in front of the house.
There is an off street tandem parking space (2 spaces total). The rear tandem space will not accommodate a large vehicle such as a full-size truck or SUV.

Grant's condo is as advertised. Updated appliances, cook-top, oven and microwave, made it easy to cook, along with a full complement of pots and pans, serving dishes and sharp knives. There's a very nice sound system and TV, a wet bar with glasses and everything else you need to mix your vacation drinks! The living area is an open floor plan, and you can see the water from anywhere in the living area, a real plus. The condo is on the first floor and has easy access to the beach, which would be good for families with young children since the parents could sit on the patio and watch the kids play in the sand. When we arrived the condo was immaculate, which we appreciated. We've rented many places using VRBO and this was the first one we thought had everything we needed for comfort and easy living. We liked the fact that the condo is on the quiet side of Mission Bay. For those who like more vibe, the active part of Pacific Beach is across the street, west, about a half a mile walk. Having been to San Diego many time, we wanted a restful week. However, the condo is close to activities families would like. Sea World is a five or ten minute drive, there's an amusement park almost across the street, you can rent bikes, or walk to a fair amount of reasonably priced restaurants. The airport is about twenty minutes away. So, this is a perfect location. Grant is helpful and very responsive. I would recommend his condo and would stay here again.Recommended for: People with disabilities, age 55+, families with young children, girls getaway.

We are about to sit down and eat our Thanksgiving dinner (from 'Sprouts'). Thanks Karin for the most beautiful set up - we did not have to buy anything for the house or kitchen besides our food. I mean, who has a gravy boat in a rental property? You do! Absolutely loved it!Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

Owner info
Year Purchased: 2010
About the owner: I am a partner at a global management consulting firm and actually live in San Diego, with my wife, and 2 young children. The 'Beach House', as we like to call it, was purchased as a second home for our personal use. It is our home away from home and we have furnished and appointed it as a place that we are very comfortable using. We outfitted the house in such a way that we can get in the car and go without having to think about packing anything besides our clothes. We love the fact that the Beach House is only 20 minutes away from our primary home, and try to use it ourselves as often as possible. With the competing priorities associated with young children there are times when we cannot use it, and therefore look to rent it out. My wife is really the person who manages the property, and insists on doing all the cleaning herself, as she has not found a cleaning company who measures up to her high standards! We feel very fortunate to be able to have a second home in this wonderful place that has so much to offer, in a neighborhood of people who are always friendly, welcoming, and happy. I guess waking up every morning with a beach on your doorstep will do that to you!
Why the Owner Chose Mission Bay:
Mission Bay is a premier location in San Diego, with 19 miles of sandy beaches, 14 miles of bike paths, a network of channels, islands, coves and wildlife preserves, and a huge number of recreational activities right on your doorstep.
The panoramic views of Mission Bay are spectacular. Whether you are watching the sunrise in the morning, the sail boats that glide back and forth in front of the house throughout the day, looking out over the blissfully quiet beach and mirror-like calm waters of the bay at sunset, or watching the explosive Seaworld fireworks at night.
The proximity to the beach was a major factor when considering our kids. They are able to walk right out of the patio gate and onto the beach without crossing a road. When they are playing on the beach we can actually keep an eye on them from the patio, or from inside the house. We are a family who love water sports and it is extremely convenient to be able to ‘park’ a Hobie Cat, ski boat or kayak on the beach right in front of your home.
We were looking for a home in a quiet and safe neighborhood, and Mission Bay is one of the only beach communities in Southern California that offers this. If we want to spend time on the more lively and noisy boardwalk and Mission Beach, it is only 2 small blocks away.
Parking at any beach city in Southern California can be problematic. As a result, we wanted the ability to be able to park our car at the Beach House, and not have to drive anywhere. Our location puts us within walking, biking or skateboarding distance of any number of restaurants, shops and recreational activities that we might need
The Unique Benefits at this Condo:
- The views
- The proximity to the beach
- The 'happy' and safe neighborhood
- The ability to walk anywhere
- The San Diego weather
- The things to see and do around you
- Did I mention the views!
