Wonderful place to stay!

Our family of four and friends with a one-year old had a fantastic time! Nancy was very responsive and a great host! The place was just as described, clean, comfortable beds, and more than what you would expect for amenities. Plenty of options for food and drinks nearby. The best part was the patio right on the beach with plenty of seating options!

Amazing stay on the beach

This was an amazing week on the beach for our family. Surprisingly quiet but right in the heart of things. Lots of fun walkable places to eat. Great beachcombing for miles and miles with tons of great shells. The place is very well equipped.

Serenity by the sea

The name of the place pretty much says it all. It wasn’t hard to find serenity relaxing on the spacious patio overlooking the beach and enjoying beautiful sunsets. You cannot find a better location for a family vacation.

Great beach and great place to stay.

This is an excellent beachfront property. The sound of the waves and the coastal air assist in providing wonderful relaxation. Windows in the living room and kitchen area and in the master bedroom provide great view of the ocean and the IB Pier. We really enjoyed the large deck area during morning coffee and later to enjoy the sun while visiting with friends. we enjoyed the community of Imperial Beach and plan on returning in the future.

Outstanding Spot on Imperial Beach

For a short family vacation with family spanning three generations, this was the perfect place. It was exactly as advertised, and at a location that is both lovely and convenient. The neighborhood was very pleasant, with a good variety of food spots within a short walking distance (the tacos at Mike Hess Brewing, two blocks away, were killer). The owner, Nancy, obviously takes a lot of pride in this place, and it has everything a visitor could need. We would definitely stay there again!

Very easy check in. Nancy very easy to get ahold of if necessary (we had no issues with anything). Very beachy feel. Check out the pier and some local restaurants! Nice neighborhood with everything needed close by.

Serenity by the Sea

Serenity by the Sea was better than we anticipated! The condo is decorated in a way that we knew we were going to have a special get away. Nancy's attention to detail is amazing and the beds were so comfy. I look forward to coming back with my husband and kids for a relaxing getaway. And the neighborhood is adorable with all sorts of great places within walking distance.

Greatest beach house ever!

Wonderful experience for Thanksgiving. Everything you could possibly need to cook, serve, and enjoy a holiday or any day meal. Then relax on the deck in the sun facing the crashing surf. Finish with cool outside breezes or cozy coverlets on great beds. Thanks to Nancy & the mermaids.
