Want to thank the owner for communicating with us easily. Very friendly! The condo was very clean. The view was awesome! Great places to eat and shop right next to the condo complex. Underground parking so your car is safe.
Very helpful instructions, clean; follow-up phone calls to welcome.Accidentally left item and was assured maid would be made aware; and followed up with found message; returning to us. Wonderful news!!!!
this was a wonderful get away we had a great time and it was great being in weather that was 40 degree less than AZ. thank you and I look forward to staying again in the future.
We loved this condo. Right on the beach clean and comfortable. Great food all around. Loved the scenery all around and loved the comfort knowing the whole place was secure, with locked gated doors.
Condo was in a great location. Steps to beach. Parking was onsite and easy. Check in and communication with property owner was seem less and well organized. We had a great stay.
The condo was clean and comfortable with a great view of the water. The hosts were kind and thoughtful and left a nice fruit basket for us. Will definitely go back.
This property was just what we needed to enjoy time by the ocean in a chill atmosphere! The view was amazing - the kitchen gave us a chance to stay in for breakfast and lunch - end enjoy eating out later. Easy drive to San Diego too! We would love to come back - and Ed was a great host providing info, check ins, and even a fruit basket upon arrival!
Property was just as listed but better in person. Accommodated our family of 5 nicely. Place is right on beach with balcony looking right out to beach/pier. Clean and plenty of amenities. Great pizza spot across the street called Pizzeria Luigi. Would rent from again.

Great time at the beach
Ed and Sandy's place is perfect. Great location to everything, quiet beach front, super clean and awesome places close by to eat. We stayed here to attend our sons graduation from Marine boot camp. It was a wonderful place for him to spend his first couple of nights back in the civilian world. We love Imperial beach- not crowded, clean and safe.
Good location, lots of food nearby. Close to other attractions. Parking spot is clutch. Plenty of space. Easy to deal with owners. Clean. View is amazing!!!
Really enjoyed the property. Relaxing setting with great views. Loved that they provided a fruit basket and made sure we arrived safely and that all arrival info worked for us. A big plus for San Diego was the designated parking. Quiet and comfortable neighborhood with great restaurants.
What a great location! Imperial Beach is our new destination of choice for San Diego. Great Pier, Beaches are not over crowded and ease of access into the city.
Thank You so much to Ed and Sandy for sharing this magical place with us!
Oh yes, let me not forget to mention how much the kids enjoyed the pool and hot tub. One word, Perfect!

Great views, Very clean, everything you will need for your vacation.
This place was the best we have stayed at using VRBO. The owners Ed and Sandy really care about your stay at their condo, they kept in contact with us throughout to make sure we got there and that we had everything as well as checking in right before we left and wished us a safe trip home.
This place has the best location to beach, playground for our young grandsons, and restaurants.
Next time we go down to San Diego we will definitely be calling for this place.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, communication
The views of the ocean, beach and pier were awesome. Great for walks. Restaurants walkable. The beds were comfortable, secure parking, and space in condo were excellent (had new: in-suite washer & dryer, microwave, fridge and dishwasher) Interior could use some updating. Only 25-30 minute drive from San Diego Old Town, Hop on Hop off tour and Zoo. The host, Ed was very helpful. Overall a very enjoyable stay.
This was our second tune staying in the same condo. Last summer we visited and had a great vacation with our two children (age 17 and 25). This year we returned to watch our son graduate from Marine Corps boot camp. This location was perfect to get out of the busy downtown area. We love Imperial Beach and will be back again! Thank you Ed and Sandy!

Beachfront Fun!
This condo was terrific. The view is absolutely incredible. Right on the beach! We had the pool to ourselves and the grounds are well kept and secure. The condo was clean and conveniently located. Ed was super to work with. He was very responsive and accommodated our reservation with only 24 hours advance notice. Our kids loved the beach toys, games and videos. Highly recommended!

We had an amazing time in Imperial Beach. A great location and property! So glad we stayed here!
Our family of five stayed here for a few nights and loved it. We loved the laid back, friendly feel of the area, the beach and park right outside the door, the restaurants close by, and the view from the balcony and windows. We swam in the pool every night with the kids and that was such a great way to end the day. We loved opening up the windows and listening to the sound of the waves. The condo was a great setting for our first family trip to the beach. We drove up to Coronado Beach one day and we're so glad we stayed in Imperial Beach instead. Just as beautiful, easier beach access, and friendlier people. Thanks for a great stay!

About the host
Hosted by Ed and Sandy Hornyak
Sandy and I moved back to the San Diego area in 1991 after I retired from 21 years in the navy. Sandy retired from registered nursing about five years ago, and I retired two years ago after teaching first grade for fifteen years. So we are really, really, retired now and enjoying every minute of it! We like to travel and try to get away several times a year. We developed the travel bug during my last years in the navy since we were stationed in Rota, Spain for four years and then in the U.S. Embassy in Lisbon, Portugal for almost five. But sometimes we just like to 'travel' to our beautiful condo by the ocean for a few days every once in awhile.
Why they chose this property
We've always dreamed of owning property by the water so we jumped at the chance to buy this place. Imperial Beach is so much quieter than San Diego's other beaches and that's what we like most about it.
What makes this property unique
We fell in love with the view of the beach and ocean from the living room area. Even though you are away from it all, everything in San Diego is within easy reach.
