We had an awesome time staying in Mission Beach! The house was in a great location and had all necessities for a perfect beach vacation. House is the perfect place for a family vacation as we lived on the beach the whole time. Beaches are a block away and way less crowded then other areas we saw, but walking distance to Belmont Park if you want to get in the crowds. Would definitely stay again.

Well-kept place a stone’s throw away from the beach

The place was really nice to stay in and had what we needed for our weekend getaway. I appreciated the beach accessories that it had in the garage and would stay again. The host was very communicative, completing our nice San Diego stay.

Our family of four and two dogs loved this place! Such a great space and walkable to both beach and bay. The place was so clean and we really appreciated the thoughtful details like toothbrush holders and nightlights in the bathrooms. The owner was so quick to respond to messages and checkin was a breeze. The beds were super comfy with really soft sheets and the huge TV was clutch to watch baseball playoffs. We used the bikes and beach chairs almost every day and my son had fun with the football. Everything we needed was right there, it was perfect! Our Nissan Pathfinder fit in the garage just fine. Just a 10 min walk to a couple of coffee shops and a 10 min drive to Dog Beach. So much fun, we will definitely stay here again!

My wife and I live in beautiful San Diego, CA. I work in program management in the education industry and love to play beach volleyball. My wife is a professor in mathematics and also plays volleyball, practices yoga, and loves to cook! We love to travel and wish we could do it more often. Whether we are visiting your property or you are booking ours, we invite you to get to know us. We build lasting relationships...

Brad & Lynn

Why they chose this property

For years, we have spent much of our time in South Mission Beach and love every aspect of it. Our home is in one of the best locations on the strip given its proximity to the beach, bay, jetty and many of the local attractions. We have been familiar with this property for years and were ecstatic when it came on the market in Summer 2015. We can't wait to enjoy it with friends, family and last but not least, our guests!

What makes this property unique

Unique architecture, floorplan, coziness, views to the bay and jetty/inlet, amenities and location makes this a wonderful beach getaway.
