About Bill & Calina Eckert
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 passed away in 2008/2009, we converted the apartment to a Vacation Rental. 'Mission Bay Hideaway', is the 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
Bill & Calina Eckert purchased this apartment in 2009
Why Bill & Calina Eckert chose San Diego County
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.
What makes this apartment unique
We take great pains to ensure our Hideaway is one of the cleanest and best maintained properties in the area. Saltillo tile floors and throw rugs help to keep the beach and bay sand from gaining a foothold and the central vacuum makes cleanup easy. Purified water from a whole-house system eliminates the need to procure bottled water or ice.
Our Fenced In Front Yard is unique to this neighborhood, with very high trees and flowered vines, providing significant privacy for the dining area.
The side parking area provides room for storage of bikes, jetskis, rafts, boogie boards, etc. and can also be used for parking a small vehicle in tandem.

PERFECT
We loved the location of the area, the price, the home, and the property owners. It was all in all perfect!! The home was super clean, conveniently located, and super cozy. We loved our stay so much we hated to say farewell. Thank you so much for allowing us this opportunity.
Extremely pleased!!
Fantastic place and people
Lovely place close to the quite Mission Bay and just a few hundred metres from the ocean. The home was spotless and had everything we needed as a family of 5. SeaWorld was only a 5 minute drive which kept the kids happy. Bill & Calina are extremely nice people and the perfect hosts. A place we will stay again. We were in the US for 3 weeks and this was the considered by us and the kids as the best.
Location Location Location!!!
I stayed for 7 nights with my wife and two boys aged 7 and 9. Bill was fantastic to deal with and was very helpful . The property was overall pretty clean, however could have used a more detailed clean prior to our arrival. There was plenty of room in the apartment for the 4 of us. The highlight was of course the location. A few steps to the beautiful bay, and a few more to the beach, the location was absolutely brilliant.
Awesome stay at mission beach!! Beautiful home fantastic area so much to do and see highly recommend
Beautiful home!! fantastic area so much to do and see! highly recommend staying here for your family vacation!! Bill is an awesome host and goes out of his way to make you feel welcome and comfortable!!
Perfect Location, Fantastic Owner
Staying at Mission Bay Hideaway was the best choice I ever made. The locations is PERFECT! This rental is very close to a lot of things, yet just far enough out of the hustle and bustle of Pacific Beach. It is a 30 second walk to the beach, 15 second walk to the bay and 5 minute walk to Pacific Beach restaurants and shops. I really enjoyed catching the morning surf without having to drive as well as grilling in the afternoon and getting to catch the sunset last minute with a burger in hand. On top of it all, the owners are great people and ready to help with anything!
Excellent!
The condo was great. We stayed for Christmas week and had all the amenities we needed to cook a Christmas dinner and enjoy our company. The condo was very clean, had a nice Mexican motif, and our host, Bill, was very responsive. I would highly recommend this condo.
