FULL DESCRIPTION
Bayside Retreat 3 is the top-floor unit at 2719 Bayside Walk, sitting above the waterfront in South Mission Beach with bay views from the living room and an elevated rooftop deck that puts the whole coastline in front of you.

The private rooftop is the defining feature — a heated hot tub, full BBQ, lounge seating, and outdoor dining table sit above the roofline with unobstructed views of Mission Bay, the channel, and the SeaWorld fireworks each evening in the summer. It’s the kind of outdoor space that turns a good trip into a memorable one.

Inside, luxurious furnishings and a bright, open layout make the most of the coastal setting. The dedicated office gives remote workers and extended-stay guests a proper workspace separate from the living areas, a rare find in Mission Beach vacation rentals.

AC runs throughout the home. Whole-home water filtration, in-unit laundry, and tandem garage parking for two cars are all included. Every Bluewater reservation comes with complimentary beach gear and bike rentals from a local shop.
