Stayed for a week with my teenaged daughter on her Spring Break. Excellent Location and property. Very clean, easy parking and steps from both the Bay and the Pacific. Lots of food options nearby as well.
Property was clean and perfect for the two of us. Location is amazing! Coffee, food and drink options steps away. Communications with owner was perfect! Highly recommend!
Perfectly nestled between the beach and bay, we loved being walking distance to everything. All the accommodations were thoughtful, no a/c but plenty of fans. So glad to have spent time at this rental, would recommend!
The home is great for what we needed! I enjoyed the location with plenty of eatery’s to choose from. It’s a quick walk to the beach on both sides. And communication with the host was an easy!
To be so close to both the beach and bay made this VRBO perfect!! A designated parking spot and nice front porch an added bonus. Nearly impossible to find parking in the area.
This home has a great location. Right between the bay and the ocean with restaurants, cafes, equipment rentals and a small market all within a super short walk. The home itself is cute comfortable and quiet at night. The property manager, Alan, was very responsive and accommodating. We definitely plan to stay there again.
We were only able to stay for a couple of days, but truly you can’t go wrong with this property! The communication with owner/manager was excellent, accommodating and prompt! Property was clean with fun cozy decor. Very easy access to beaches, dining, shopping and activities. So much to do! Thank you Alan for all of you help!
Great place with easy walking access to Mission Beach (and parking!) Host is super responsive and knows what amenities to offer to make his place the best for guests. There is a Keurig with coffee, cream and sugar, beach towels, beach chairs and cooler and plenty of regular towels. There are also some spices if you want to cook. And no task list on departure! A great place to stay to enjoy the Mission Beach area with easy access to other parts of San Diego.
