About this property

Great Condo in Mission Beach only a block from the ocean and steps to the bay.

Great news, book your 2022 vacation stay at 2021 rates now!

This beautiful Mission Beach condominium is located in a prime area of Mission Beach in San Diego. Guests comment on how great the location is. Our family loves it too.

The condo has spectacular views of Mission Bay from our windows, balcony and upper deck. On our private balcony, you can enjoy boats on the bay and fireworks from Sea World. Relax on the common deck with your family for your dinner BBQ and then watch the SeaWorld fireworks. It is a wonderful place to relax and enjoy the sun.

Our bedroom setup is a king-size bed in the master bedroom and two twins in the second master-suite room. Each bedroom has its own full bath. We also have a queen sofa bed located in the living room and two futons.

Whether you are on a family vacation or a romantic getaway, this is the ideal spot all year round. All of the San Diego attractions are nearby including: Sea World, Belmont Park, San Diego Zoo, Wild Animal Park, LEGOLAND, Birch Aquarium, San Diego Padres at Petco Park, Gaslamp District, San Diego Old Town, and Knott's Soak City Water Park in Chula Vista. A great place to spend the day is in Balboa Park visiting the museums, Spanish Village Art Center, Ruben H. Fleet Space Center and eating at great restaurants. We love eating at The Prado or Panama 66. The world famous San Diego Zoo is a full-day of activity in itself. Disneyland is also only a 90-120 minute drive north to Anaheim if San Diego doesn't offer enough. Sports include the San Diego Padres located in East Village downtown. The very popular Gaslamp District in Downtown offers wonderful nightlife and entertainment with acclaimed restaurants and chefs. Seaport Village is also very popular for shopping and restaurants located at the harbor. Little Italy is becoming the best area for dining and offers a charming atmosphere. Liberty Station near the airport is a very short drive with many interesting restaurants. Within walking distance from the condo you can walk to restaurants, shops and farmers markets as well as the Historic Belmont Amusement Park. Jump on a bike and ride down to Pacific Beach, spend a day surfing, swimming, sunbathing or just relaxing and top it off with a casual dinner at one of the great beach front restaurants. La Jolla Cove and La Jolla Shores is an absolutely gorgeous place to visit. There is always an option of just parking your car in our two-car garage and relaxing at our condo and enjoying Mission Beach. City Bus service is right on our block too.

We are now booking dates for summer 2022. Don't wait. Get the most popular dates now. Our property is owned and managed by us the owners.

Come to Mission Beach and enjoy the best weather and fun for all ages. We call it Paradise.

Wonderful stay!

Perfect location just steps away from Mission Bay and a short walk to Mission Beach. Very clean and well stocked with everything we needed for our stay. Roomy and comfortable too. The big garage with easy access was a plus! Communication with the owner, Kathy, was great and prompt. We look forward to staying here again and would definitely recommend it!

Great Beach Condo

Had a wonderful few days at this spacious condo and enjoyed every minute. The condo is just steps from the Beach Walk on Mission Bay side and a short one block walk to the beach side. We appreciated having the amenities of a secure garage for our vehicle and also a washer & dryer. The owner allowed us to check in early for an additional fee. Having a code to access the front door and garage made it so easy for us. One evening we had cocktails on the upper shared deck during sunset - so nice! We were dropping our daughter at SDSU and having a few days at a beautiful condo on the beach made it easier to say goodbye. Thanks for a memorable vacation - weather was absolutely perfect too!

Good value, very good location

Be warned there is no a/c. You may rarely need it in this location but we had the misfortune of staying during one of the hottest most humid weeks of the year and it was 85 degrees inside the condo in the middle of the night with all the fans going and all the windows open. That said, it was an excellent location, the place was clean and the rate is considerably less than many others in this area. Also note we were able to squeeze a large SUV and compact car into the garage. Good thing because street parking is impossible to find. These are just things to be aware of. The place is quite nice.

Great location

Pros: amazing location, two minute walk to the beach. We appreciated having two car garage and could fit two medium size SUVs. Washer and dryer were inside of the garage, also some nice beach chairs, umbrella, fire pit and boogie boards. Cons: Although the condo is spacious, it feels and looks very old and outdated. Kitchen appliances are very old, we used a toaster, but we couldn’t use a coffee maker because it was gross. You could see and feel some sand on the floor, dust and spilled cereal. We couldn’t use a sofa bed because the mattress was very old and dirty, so my husband slept on the floor. The bed sheets, blankets and bath towels looked old and had spots. We were charged the cleaning fees, so we expected the clean and comfortable environment. Overall, we enjoyed the beach, but not the condo.

Beware no AC

We erroneously believed, based on Kathy's responses to other reviews complaining about the heat, that she had gotten AC. We were there during a heat wave and despite all the fans going, we could never cool the condo. We sweated and tossed and turned at night in our futile attempt to fend off the heat. That being said, it was a wonderful condo. Clean, very spacious, near the beach and everything else we could ever want. We reached out to Kathy a couple of times and she responded quickly.

Great location

We rented this condo for a weekend family vacation. It was a great location, right by the bay and only a block away from the ocean. The beds we comfy, the condo was clean. There was beach gear in the garage, boogie boards, chairs and umbrella. Kathy was quick to respond and easy to work with. I would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful place to stay

We stayed at this condo for 3 nights. It was well stocked with everything we needed in regards to dishes, pots, pans, bedding, shampoo, etc. Location was perfect to get to and from the beach or bay. We thoroughly enjoyed the beach toys that were available and there were plenty for our five children. We had plenty of sleeping space. Kathy was easy to contact and quick with her responses. Would highly recommend, especially for families who don't want to spend a lot of time driving to and from different areas. We would definitely stay here again! Thank you Kathy!

10th Anniversary trip.

Very nice accomodations....just did not realize the amount of stairs to climb daily...liked having bikes , beach supplies, and the washer and dryer in the garage-also having 3 parking spots was great. Also did not realize the deck was off the bedroom with the twin beds-thought it was off the master bedroom-my mistake. Kathy was easy to rent from. Loved our stay in Mission beach for out 10th anniversary!

Cute condo in an excellent location with very nice & accomodating owners.

There was a small issue with the garage door opener when we first arrived, but the owners were there to remedy the problem within 1/2 hour and the rest of the stay was perfect. The owners are very nice and considerate people and extremely easy to work with. We had five adults staying in the condo for a week and it was just right. Not too crowded and plenty of sleeping/sitting areas for everyone to be comfortable. The location is very nicely located close to the bay area, and the ocean-side beach is not far away at all. The condo has more of the basic necessities already in it than any other condo I have rented in the past which was a very nice surprise. I would highly recommend renting this condo. I am already considering booking some time for next summer. LK from Phoenix, AZ

False advertising and poor customer service

For many reasons this place is great, especially the location. However it was advertised as having air conditioning, but it did not. The temperatures were in the high 80’s the during our stay. My sister’s family and I collectively had 3 kids under the age of 5, who slept miserably as a result of the heat. I would have chosen a different rental had I known it didn’t have AC. I reported my concern to the owner, Kathy, she responded with an apology, but stated she did not realize the rental was advertised as having air conditioning. However, she sent me an email only 2 days before we arrived, stating the unit did not have AC, why would she do this if she had not marked the unit as having AC? I wish she would have handled my concern more effectively.

Perfect Location

Loved our stay. Very roomy for the four of us. Loved that each bedroom had it's own full size bathroom. The property is very well stocked with the essentials. Carport very roomy and had many beach supplies to choose from. Grandkids loved the coffee shop that was 100 steps away, My husband enjoyed the store that had everything you could possibly need. The neighbors were very friendly. We will return next year. Shauna

Older and needs remodeling

I was a little disappointed in the lack of attention when it came to the cleanliness of the property as well as the lack of staples in the kitchen. I expect to have things like flour, sugar, spices and condiments to be available to use. Unless you want to stock a kitchen for just a few meals, it is difficult to prepare a meal. We left the ketchup, mustard, tea, spices, coffee, sugar there, but it must be cleared put after each renter. There was a musty odor in the 2nd bedrooms closet and the sliding door screen kept coming off.the track so it was difficult to use. The master bedroom walk in closet was very disorganized wirh a small broken shelf in the middle of it and not enough hangers for our clothes. There was only 4 total rolls of TP for is to use for 5 days with 5 women and one guy and we ran out in the one bathroom. There also was only 1/2 roll of Paper towels, no condiments (ketchup, mustard) or staples (flour, sugar, tea, creamer, etc) so it was very difficult to cook unless you want to stock a kitchen for just a few meals. The springs on the hide a bed were broken on the right hand corner so the mattress sagged amd we cpuld not uae it. My husbamd had to work on it as one of the brackets was broken and it would not fold.up. our 9 yr old just slept on the couch and.the two other two slept.on the foam mattresses on the floor. It was inconvenient to have the entrance to the garage (and washer/dryer) in an unattached and not even close garage. On a positive note, the condo is located 2 blocks from the ocean and only 1block from the bay. It is close to Sea World and Belmont Park. My family had a great time at the beach and Sea World

Very clean condo. Very easy talking with the owner Kathy. She was very helpful. Walked every where, breakfast, lunch and dinner. Kitchen was fully stocked but we wanted to walk and ended up eating out. Great location on the bay. Has barbecue on the back porch. I will come back next year and stay longer. I will tell my friends.

Great place!

Large apartment, comfortable, great location, great roof top, cool bikes and body boards to use. What should be clarified is the usage of the shared roof including barbecue. There are 4 parties sharing the roof , at least one lives there permanently and declares the barbecue to be their property not a shared one. Will come again for sure!

About the host

Hosted by Kathy

Host profile image
We have owned and loved this property for over 25 years. It has been a vacation spot for us as well as a vacation spot for others. We enjoy having our guests and family stay for summer weeks and during the year. Many of our guests return year after year. There are many activities close by but it is also very relaxing to just stay near the condo. We travel all over the world but love to stay in San Diego too. We stay in vacation rentals like ours when possible on our travels so we keep our rates low. Enjoy San Diego Mission Beach.

Why they chose this property

Our unit features a great location for a wonderful vacation at the beach. It has comfortable beds and 2 separate full baths. San Diego is a wonderful place to visit but the beach is the best. There are lots of water activities and attractions near-by. The world famous zoo is probably the most visited site plus the Midway Museum is highly rated. Come bring the family for a great vacation.

What makes this property unique

We are located in central Mission Beach. We love our location. There are beaches on both sides as well as a convenience store on our block. A new crosswalk with lights has just been installed for safety crossing the main street. Lifeguards guard the beach during the summer months and are directly on our closest sandy beach. The beach is beautiful the year around. The restaurants are also great and many new ones have opened recently. Pacific Beach, our nearest other beach has many great and varied restaurants to pick from. We love just walking to nearby restaurants.
