Steps to beach and restaurants

Super great location , enjoyed the taco stand on the block and the variety of fun and restaurants at Belmont Park. Parking was tight for a Tesla Model X, and crawling thru the back was needed, but that was OK (we expected it)

Wonderful Vacation Getaway

Staying here was what my family And I needed. We stayed here for Labor Day weekend. The check-in process was easy. The house was very clean. The parking was tight which we were told ahead of time but our 2018 Honda Odyssey did fit. This cozy house was just steps from the beach. And being lobar day weekend this part of the beach was not as overly packed like it was down a bit further from the beach.It’s also just steps away from a food market, restaurants and shops. We will be back for sure. Thank you for making everything easy for us during our stay.

Great Stay

Loved this house. It gave us the space we needed and was very close to the beach. We have a Toyota highlander with a Thule on top. Parking was tight but not impossible. I slept on the sofa couch with my infant nearby and thought it was very comfortable. I do think it is important to note that the owner lives above the home. While some might find this to be a comfort, we found it to be intrusive and never quite felt like we weren’t being watched.

Extra charges

The home was not very clean upon entering even though a cleaning person was there when we arrived. I was charged an extra $100 for not washing some beach towels and was told that was sent to me in an email. I can provide the email that portion is cut off and I was unaware of that. I was also told there were spots on the couch which we would like to see because we had no accidents at all. The couch was not in the best shape when we arrived but considering the location we didn’t mind.

A Family Friend's Wedding Weekend

This Mission Beach gem was perfect for our family visit to San Diego. The house was centrally located, steps from a beautiful beach and the fenced-in yard was perfect for us to relax and let our 1 yr. old grandson run around. The house was well equipped and Ginny was very accommodating to our requests. The only issue was parking (the house has a designated spot for a small/midsize car but we had a minivan rental)- street parking is tricky.

San Diego Beach House

We had a great stay at this beach house. The house was clean and well appointed. We loved eating dinner on the patio. Proximity to the beach is a big plus as well as the short drive to Seaworld. For information, we were able to fit our minivan in the parking space but we had to get out first before my husband parked and then he came out the back. Do not plan on street parking because there will be none.

Beautiful Home & Fabulous Location

We had a wonderful stay. The home was beautiful and the location was perfect. It was a great family vacation. The only drawback was that the parking was not exactly accurate. It is really designed only for a compact car and does not accomodate medium sized cars. The assigned parking spot is wedged between 2 buildings. After very slowly and carefully backing into the assigned spot, I could only access my vehicle by climbing in and out through the truck/tailgate each time. The backing in process each time took several minutes because the location is way too tight and I did not want to damage the walls on both sides, nor the electric meters that are mounted there. Once parked, there was no room to open any doors. It would be helpful if the owners provided the dimensions of the parking width and cautioned renters that it only accomodates compact size vehicles. Other than the parking challenge, we loved the home and greatly enjoyed our stay.

Great location and comfortable house

My family and I enjoyed our stay. We survived the tropical storm, which was not so bad after all. There were six of us, all adults and the home was clean and comfortable. The only negative was the third bedroom with the pull-out sofa. It was not large enough for two adults but one of us slept on the sofa in the living room, so it worked out fine. I would recommend the home for a vacation stay.
