About this property

Charming Beach Bungalow steps from the Ocean & Bay

Footsteps to the sand on the bay or the ocean! Enjoy staying in your own romantic, private beach bungalow.

The beach house is 15 seconds (25 yards) by foot to Sail Bay and 2 minutes (100 yards) by foot to the Pacific Ocean.

This bright and cheery, immaculate beach bungalow has all the amenities of home on a bayside court of Mission Beach and Bay. It is surrounded by beautiful Mission Bay on one side and the magnificent Pacific Ocean on the other, both with incredible white sand beaches.

The Oceanfront Boardwalk and Bayfront Walk wrap all around Mission Beach and Mission Bay for leisurely walks and bike riding for several miles. Rentals available down the block.

Enjoy the relaxing bayside environment on the deck with a BBQ. This bungalow has a fully equipped kitchen with all the essentials. As well as a gas grill on patio.

Enjoy spectacular views while strolling on the Bayfront Walk or the Ocean Boardwalk, ending up at one of the many eateries for a leisurely breakfast, lunch or dinner.

Sunbathe, swim or surf at the beach. Rent a jet-ski, boat or paddle board for a fun relaxing day on the bay. Enjoy a sightseeing cruise around the bay on the three decker Paddlewheel Steamboat starting at the Catamaran Hotel, on Sail Bay. Stroll down to the Roller Coaster at Belmont Amusement Park on the ocean.

Just a few of the many things to do on foot from the bungalow...

Free wireless Internet. TV with streaming

Amazing spot right in the middle of the beach and the bay. Plenty of space for family of 4 and the kids liked the futons. Had a small problem with ants but I guess that’s to be expected with the location. Overall place was great and would probably book again.

Cute place, clean. Lots of upgrades. Had an ant problem, couldn’t leave food on the kitchen counter but I guess that’s due to construction. The a/c wasn’t turning and the tower fan wasn’t working but it wasn’t warm for long. Close to lots of fun, would definitely recommend

Perfect location for a beach vacation. Steps from the bay and just a short walk to the ocean. We had a fabulous stay and enjoyed nightly strolls along the bay.

Hello, We are San Diego natives that always dreamed to own a beach Property and now we do. We'd like to share our dream with you. Hope you enjoy your stay at our bungalow!

What makes this property unique

The unique benefits of this property is it is located on the narrowest part of the strand between the Pacific Ocean & Mission Bay. Which means you're steps from the sand in either direction.
