We loved staying here! Very cute Property. Had everything we needed. Literally steps from the beach, and not far from the bay. The front patio was enjoyable, with plenty of places to relax, and places to eat was a short walk away. It was a great place to stay for our family of four.

All photos and descriptions were accurate. Small but utterly charming except for driftwood crucifix over bedroom door.Sadly, during the day the porch is unusable due to departing jets from San Diego International Airport. At night acrid smoke from trash being burnt on beach was thick enough to appear as fog. This continued all night in spite of sign saying no fires after midnight.We stayed for only the first night out of a week reserved. No refund offered.

Great Stay in South Mission Beach

We have been coming to South Mission Beach for over 10 years now and have probably stayed at 8 or 9 different places. This was one of our favorites. The front Patio area is by far the best we have had and the owners were wonderful hosts.
