You are just steps from the beach, in the highly sought-after neighborhood of South Mission Beach, California! Now with Split HVAC systems!

We have 2 other units available to be booked with this one!
This 3 bedroom has the ability to sleep up to 10 guests, it offers ample space and comfort for families and groups. While our max guest count is 10 we only allow 7 adults in the property. 10 guests would be a mix of adults and children. Children under the age of 2yo are not included in the guest count.
As you enter the home, you'll immediately feel the coastal vibes and welcoming atmosphere. The living area is tastefully furnished, providing a great space to relax and unwind with family and friends after a day of sun-soaked adventures. The large windows allow natural light to fill the room, creating a bright and airy ambiance. There is a Smart TV with Roku for your entertainment.
The fully equipped kitchen is ready for your culinary delights, complete with modern appliances and all the necessary amenities for a home cooked meal and has a cozy bar for hungry onlookers! Whip up delicious meals and gather around the indoor table for quality time with loved ones or try al fresco dining with our outdoor dining table on the balcony during sunset.
The three bedrooms are thoughtfully designed to ensure a restful night's sleep. The primary bedroom features a comfortable king-sized bed, en-suite bath, and Roku TV. The second bedroom has a queen-sized while the third bedroom offers two twin sized bunk beds (4 twins total). Additionally, the living room includes a sleeper sofa for extra accommodation.
Two well-appointed bathrooms provide convenience and privacy for guests. Fresh towels, bar soap, shampoo, conditioner, and a hair dryer are provided for your comfort.
Step outside to the outdoor patio, where you can savor your morning coffee or grill up some fresh fish or juicy steaks on the propane grill. While the patio offers glimpses of the ocean, it's the perfect spot to soak up the California sunshine and breathe in the fresh coastal air.

THE LOCATION:
South Mission Beach is a vibrant and exciting neighborhood located on a beautiful peninsula in San Diego, California. The neighborhood is known for its stunning natural beauty, with the Pacific Ocean to the west and the calm waters of the bay to the east. This unique location provides residents and visitors with endless opportunities for outdoor activities and relaxation. One of the most iconic features of South Mission Beach is the famous rollercoaster called the Giant Dipper. This historic wooden coaster has been a beloved attraction in the area since it was built in 1925. It is a must-ride for thrill-seekers and families alike. The neighborhood is also home to a two-mile-long boardwalk that stretches from the pier at the north end to the jetty at the south. This scenic boardwalk is perfect for walking, jogging, or biking and offers stunning views of the ocean and bay. It is also a popular spot for rollerblading and skateboarding.
