Had a fantasy stay at this property! House was perfect, very clean, and well thought out and organized! Kitchen is beautiful, and extremely well stocked! Location is perfect to access everything that the San Diego region has to offer. Neighborhood is quiet, and perfect beach and bay access. We stayed with our 2 adult daughters/son in laws, and grandson. Great space for all, including pack n play, beach toys, beach towels, wagon, and beach chairs. Communication with property managers/host was smooth and checkin and checkout was even smoother! I would definitely stay here again!

Thanks so much for such great review, Paula! We enjoyed hosting you and would love to welcome you back again :)
I was pleasantly surprised by this condo and the surrounding area. The house itself was comfortable and very clean! The owners thought of everything. From the rolled up beach towels by the entry way to the coffee nook right off the kitchen, Everything was top notch! My only regret was the short 3 day stay!
Thanks for making your house a perfect place for much needed R&R!
Beautiful property in excellent condition and very clean. This property has all the features and amenities anyone needs for cooking and the beach. One block to Belmont Park and the beach.

Thank you, Donald! We’re so glad you enjoyed the home, amenities, and convenient location. It was a pleasure hosting you. Hope to welcome you back soon!
Another fantastic stay at this impressive VRBO! Meticulously maintained with everything you could possibly need on vacation. Minutes from the ocean and bay in a very quiet and pleasant area. This VRBO offers guests plenty of privacy and also a beautiful first floor kitchen and spacious family room gathering space. Nice and light and comfortable throughout.

Liked: Check-in, communication, listing accuracy
No ocean view - some view of the bay. House cleanliness was ok - things could be improved (crumbs in barstools, hair in misc places, scuff marks everywhere, stains on front of cabinets).

Perfect stay
The property had every amenity for a beach vacation and all the builder upgrades from quartz countertops to engineered hardwood floors. We throughly enjoyed our stay and hanging out playing chess and table shuffleboard.
We had a wonderful stay in San Diego! This home exceeded our expectations with its incredible location, immaculate condition and top-notch amenities. The host team/Vacation rental company "Drift Vacation Homes" was fantastic and made our stay seamless. We can't recommend this place enough!

Thank you so much for your great review, Shantel! We are thrilled to have met your expectations. Can't wait to host you again :)
The property has a great location and easy access to the beach and the bay. Comfortable layout and furniture and very well stocked kitchen appliances, utensils and cookware. The hosts were very responsive and accommodating. It was very clean and I would definitely stay again for my next trip. One of the nicest properties we’ve stayed at.

Thanks so much for your review, ! We enjoyed hosting you and hope to welcome you back again :)
Only stayed in a couple VRBOs in my life and was very satisfied with the ENTIRE process … super super responsive, great property, very clear communications and helped where they could … definitely stay here no hesitation!
This property has a great location, amenities, and a very responsive property manager. This property is fully stocked with everything you need and they even make an effort to leave plenty of home items. I would love to give them a 5 star review but the beds were the big negative. They were incredibly uncomfortable, especially the master bedroom. It almost felt like sleeping on a wooden board. I didn't sleep much the whole time and my husband slept on the couch most of the time.

Thank you for your detailed feedback—we’re so glad to hear you enjoyed the location, amenities, and our team’s responsiveness. We truly appreciate your kind words.
We’re sorry to hear that the mattresses did not meet your expectations and impacted your comfort during the stay. We understand how important a good night’s sleep is, and we will be reviewing the condition of the current mattresses and sharing your feedback with the owner for their consideration.
Thank you again for your input—it helps us continue to improve the guest experience.
This home was perfect for our vacation. Very clean, well-appointed, and within walking distance of pretty much everything we needed. Would definitely recommend it.
We loved the location! So close to the beach, but far enough away so that it was a quiet retreat. Having a 2 car garage was a treat as parking in Mission Beach can be difficult. Close to restaurants. Beautiful property.
The house was perfect for our stay. Well stocked, clean, walking distance to beach and Belmont Park. The garage fit two small Rav-4 size cars but it was tight. 2 Larger cars would have a hard time. We really enjoyed the home!

Amazing Location, Super Clean and Spacious. Parking a plus
Short walk to the beach with a 2 car garage filled with beach chairs. The 3 bedrooms and layout allowed our family of 5 to spread out. We felt spoiled and could truly enjoy our trip without filling like we were on top of each other. On suite bathroom was a plus.
The property was great and just what we were looking for. The owners were wonderful to work with and the property was as described. We had 6 in our party and the bedroom and bathroom layouts worked perfectly. We would stay again and recommend to others.
This house had everything we needed for a very comfortable stay! Great location as it is an easy short walk to the beach or the bay. Most importantly, it was very clean. Would highly reccomend.
Stayed 5 days for a family spring break trip. Condo/townhouse was exactly as described, and very clean. Had a well stocked kitchen and bathroom with all linens. Loved that there were plenty of beach chairs and toys available.
