Charming beach house— clean, sunny, well-furnished, close to everything. A bedroom and bath on each floor made it easy for a multi-generational family visit. Comfortable beds. The hosts were very welcoming. Thanks, Joanne!

Great stay!

We were there to celebrate our son’s SDSU college. We loved having the option of being on the calm bay on day and then the ocean a short block away in the other side. The bikes were fun to take out on the bike paths. Many places to eat a short walk away. Mission Beach is a happening place with close living. Alley is narrow and can be hard to get two cars in. We were able to do it with a Tesla and Honda CRV. Nice to have a secure parking spot.

Absolutely great visit by the sea and San Diego

This was an exceptional VRBO experience. The listing was accurate. Easy access to both bay and beach just a few steps away in either direction. We loved the kitchen and it was well equipped with just about anything an aspiring chef would wish. Rooms on all three floors were comfortable and with each floor with its own bathroom made things easy.

Awesome Rental!

The location is perfect. There are great restaurants within walking distance. Rosemarie’s (across the street) was delicious. The Olive Cafe is great for breakfast. Arslan’s was a hit, too. The rental was clean and very nicely appointed. The hosts responded quickly to questions. Everyone in our party was thrilled with the rental. Truly a five star experience.

Great stay for a beach vacation!

This was the perfect house for a multi-family vacation. Walking distance to the beach, bay, and all food places you could want. As well as just a short drive to nearly anywhere in San Diego. The property comes with all the beach things you may need so you don’t have to worry about bringing your own which is nice. The only issue is how difficult parking is. The garage fit two small cars but our third member had to park nearly a mile and a half away due to not being able to find street parking. Overall I would rent this house again!

Lovely Home

This home is in a wonderful location...in two blocks you are either on the ocean or at the bay. The area has nightlife, restaurants, fun shops and grocery access. It is close to downtown, super close to SeaWorld and Belmont Park and a fun area to explore. The house is great. We had 2 couples and a single staying there. There are 3 floors and each floor has a bedroom and a bathroom. It was perfect for our group. The property owners are very kind people. When we needed a place to store our bags until we went to the airport they allowed us to store them in the garage so we could explore the area without the worry of dragging our bags around with us. We enjoyed every minute of our stay. Thank you Tom and Joanne for your generosity and kindness.

Great Location, Fun Vacation

This property was accurately portrayed on VRBO. House very clean and comfortable. We had a great time. We used bikes and all the patios. Since covid we prepared many meals. Extremely easy to pick up meals nearby also. Our only complaint would be that there weren't any small or medium sauce pans (2 - 8 qt) or large fry pans (4 5" fry pans), additionally no measuring cups or measuring spoons. We were creative and used the one cup measurements on the blender carafe. We figured that there has probably been many meals prepared in the kitchen recently increasing the wear and tear on kitchen items. As mentioned in other reviews the dishwasher is a handful and on it's last leg. Additionally, Tom had to help us figure out lighting the grill. Tom was exceptionally helpful. We enjoyed the house and would definitely book again. Fun socially distanced vacation.

We live in Scripps Ranch a community about 20 minutes from Mission Beach. My youngest son loved Mission Beach and wanted to "staycation" in Mission so he could surf and see his buddies. We then decided to purchase a 2 bedroom and make it a vacation rental in which the family could also use. We live at Costco! We are available to fix minor problems or can arrange an expert if necessary. We have lived in San Diego since college and love it! We would love to recommend our favorite spots. Tom and Joanne
