Just steps to the sand! Take our boogie boards and beach equipment out for the day and come home to relax in this cozy 1-bedroom or go out to the nearby restaurants in Pacific Beach. This unit is laid out to comfortably sleep 4 in two beds. It has a separate dining area and a full kitchen, so you always have the option of dining in or experiencing the vast array of PB restaurants and bars.
The Space:
This is a second floor unit. Enter into an open L living room with a dining nook off the updated kitchen. Updated plank flooring and tile in the kitchen and bathrooms which is ideal for the beach. Smart TV to meet all your needs. Kitchen is fully appointed (gas stove, oven, microwave, blender, coffee maker, toaster, and all the things to use them). Updated step in shower with lots of natural light in the bathroom. Sleeper in the living room converts into an over-sized full bed. Luxurious queen in the bedroom....wake up to the sights and sounds of the Pacific Ocean literally 100 steps from your door!
Guest Access:
The whole unit is yours. This unit is part of a small and quiet 6-plex. Check-in is contactless. You will be given a door code 3 days prior to arrival.
The Neighborhood:
Within walking distance of all Mission Beach has to offer, this charming unit is both centrally and conveniently located, yet offers the quiet comfort most look for in a vacation getaway. Best part of this location in north Mission is that you are a quick jaunt to all the nightlife, cafes and restaurants of Pacific Beach but you get to come home to the quiet of north Mission Beach.
Getting Around:
We provide a single covered parking space. It is accessed off the alley and as such can be a tight fit (as with about 90% of the parking spaces at the beach). We recommend a small- to mid-sized car to make it easier to park. We also recommend backing into the spot as that makes it easier to get in and pull out. There is free street parking available, but due to the high volume of beach-goers, don't count on parking nearby. Also be sure to read parking signs!
Looking for a unique way to get around Mission/ Pacific Beach during your stay? We've partnered with a local company, PB Golf Cart Rentals, that offers daily rentals in a customized Golf Cart. Whether you need it for the day, the weekend, or the week, they've got you covered. With flexible pricing and local pickup & drop-off, you’re minutes away from riding around San Diego in style. Please mention that Vacation Rentals By Aaron sent you!
Other Things to Note:
This is "typical" beach parking so we do not recommend large cars. The spots will not accommodate anything more than a mid-size car or SUV.
For stays longer than 30 days, I require a deposit in the amount of one month's rent to be paid offline due 60 days prior to arrival as well as a formal lease agreement.
We only offer the air conditioning between May and September
Interaction with Guests:
Check-in is virtual, as you'll be provided with a digital Guest Portal and a personalized door code. Vacation Rentals by Aaron is a full-service property management company, and will be available 24-7 in case you need anything during your stay.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Hi Randy. Thank you for your 5 star review! We are glad you love the location. Cleanliness is always our top priority, and we are glad you appreciate our communications. -Vacation Rentals By Aaron
We loved the location which is about a 1 minute walk to mission beach. The place was very clean and had everything we needed. The parking spot is pretty tight but nice to have. The bed was comfortable enough. The portable a/c didn’t really cool the entire apartment but opening windows was nice. We would stay here again!

We'd be happy to host you again anytime! -Vacation Rentals By Aaron
We enjoyed our stay here. Location was good, off the road and the boardwalk so it’s quieter but so steps to the beach and a couple of blocks to the bay. Place was clean, host was perfectly hospitable. We’ll be back.

Thank you for sharing your positive review with us! Feedback like yours meant a lot to us! We hope you can stay with us again next time, Tammy! -Vacation Rentals By Aaron
Location was great-one block from the beach. Quiet street, yet within walking distance to restaurants and shops. Apartment was small and cozy - perfect for two people. Furniture was a bit dated but the bed was comfortable for a good night sleep. Would stay there again.
Great stay! Wonderful location! Excellent accomodations- clean and comfortable! Great communication with the host! We will definitely seek this location out for all our SD vacations. Thank you!
This was a great location. Just a block from the beach and close to all the restaurants. The place was nice and clean. The portable air conditioning didn’t really do much. So we opened all the windows and left the door cracked open while in apartment and it worked great cooling it off. It was nice having a dedicated parking spot but definitely made for a compact car. Overall it was a great place to stay and I would recommend it and stay there again.

Literally less than one minute walk to the beach! Property had beach chairs which was nice to just sit on the beach and enjoy. Lots of options close by for eating out or just grabbing coffee. Perfect spot for a quick weekend getaway…quiet and clean.
