The place was awesome! Location was great, very clean, a short walk to everything. Very accommodating and my family loved it. Definitely five star. The only challenge is the parking. Not equipped for large cars or any type of SUV. But, parking on the street was easy and convenient.Our next trip back is in April and I will book early.

Thanks so much, Clifton! We’re really glad you and your family loved the place, the location, and the cleanliness. Five stars mean a lot to us, we appreciate you mentioning the parking as well. Street parking is a great backup. We’d be happy to host you again in April, looking forward to it!
We could not have been happier!!!
The condo was beautiful and clean. Great location as well. Would highly recommend to others and will definitely stay there again. Besides it having the tightest garage width I’ve ever parked in, everything else was on point.
We had a fantastic stay at this property. The place was spotless when we arrived and clearly very well cared for. It was stocked with everything we needed—kitchen basics, fresh linens, and lots of thoughtful extras that made our stay super comfortable.The décor was modern but cozy, and the layout made it easy to relax and feel at home. There was plenty of natural light and comfy furniture throughout. You can tell the owners really put effort into making it a great space for guests.We loved all the little touches that made it feel like more than just a rental. Highly recommend this place—we’d definitely come back!

Our family vacation in Mission Beach
Beautiful property, fully , really fully equipped !!!
Excellent location,
Ver my easy instructions for every single detail with hosts
Highly recomended
Beautiful apartment, great location, walkable to many restaurants. We loved the deck off the kitchen, spent mornings and late afternoons reading and relaxing. Very well equipped home- kitchen, linens, beach towels and chairs. Garage is tricky with anything larger than a standard SUV! My husband had it mastered within a couple of days :). Highly recommend this home and would definitely rent it again and/or use Drift Vacation for future needs.

Exceeded Expectations
This was an excellent vacation home for our family. There is honestly nothing I would suggest. It was so clean, well stocked, and furniture selection was wonderful. We felt so at home. My ONLY reminder is there are three flights of stairs. If you have anyone with mobility issues, this wouldn't be the home for you. Thanks for making our stay AMAZING!!
super recent, in perfect shape, all the luxury amenities (kitchen/beach gear/TV/washer-dryer/etc), great floorplan, enjoyed the 2 patios. Close to everything on Mission Bay, steps from the beach. This place has it all!
We very much enjoyed our Fall Break stay and will be back!
The place is just as it looks in the adds or better.
Location is a few steps from the ocean.
Will use it again!

Perfect Place!
Place was wonderful! Beds were super comfortable and the sheets were the softest I have ever layed in! Property was perfect distance from the bay and the beach! We were able to fit a Yukon as well as a Honda civic in garage which was a huge plus to not have to find parking! We will definitely be booking this place again!
This property is absolutely wonderful. The location is perfect- so close to the beach, and the neighborhood has good restaurants.
As others have said, the kitchen has everything one could need for meals at home. The beds were super comfy. And there were tons of beach chairs, towels, boogie boards and umbrellas.
We will definitely be back!
The condo was exactly as advertised. Would definitely stay there again when we return to San Diego. Location was great down by the beach and it was super quiet. Had a couple rainy days and it was still enough room to just hang out and relax. Thanks Again.
Stay was all around great only had an issue with the garage being i had a plus size suv. But it worked out. One neighbor doesnt like laughter and talking mid day. But other then that its a great property and i enjoyed my 50 th birthday at the location

Thanks for your review, Chancy! We post our everything on the listing to avoid issues like the garage being too narrow.
thank you!
This was our first family trip to the west coast and we could not have chosen a better place to stay. Perfect location between the beach and the bay with easy access to wherever you wanted to go.
The house was spotless and there was plenty of room for everyone. The kitchen was excellent for making some meals in and the laundry came in handy every day. We used the beach towels, chairs, umbrellas and bikes provided so there was no need to rent anything or bring extra with us.
Overall top notch all around. Highly recommend.

Thanks so much for your review, Jerrold! We enjoyed hosting you and hope to welcome you back again :)
What a great place! Location was perfect. The park behind the place was an added bonus to the stay. The patio of the kitchen got a lot of use. Held all of us comfortably. Its where we played cards and board games. We used the fire pit almost every night. Eight of us in the place fit comfortably.
The property management where perfect for a few requests we had.
Would highly recommend this property. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Thank you for your great review, Toneya! We are thrilled that you and your guests enjoyed the house so much!
The entire process was painless. Home is beautiful. Loved having the beach gear in the garage. Walk to Belmont Park and the beach is super easy. Garage is very narrow so recommend a small compact car as your vehicle. Only downside was keeping the air conditioner at 72 degrees. This could be discomforting during the hot summer months. We keep our own home at 69-70 so we felt stuffy at 72. We all loved our stay. Highly recommend.

Thank you for staying with us, Mick! Can't wait to host you again!
Beautiful property, very well stocked kitchen for cooking, great outdoor spaces. Very clean on arrival. Comfortable beds, well organized rental and good communication with mgmt. Location is killer for kids and families including playground, beach and amusement park. I would not necessarily recommend this rental for very young kids as there are no child utensils, plates or high chairs. Plastic utensils are present, but not kid sized or portion plates etc. I can't give 5 stars for a few reasons, some operational, some organizational. The pack and play was mistakenly not left in the unit by housekeeping so we had an uncomfortable first night with our baby. We also had numerous hot water outages due to problems with the tankless hot water heater. These were resolved but required me to go down and reset the heater numerous times. Only other issue was the ability to fit two cars in the garage. The garage is super well stocked with beach stuff of all kinds but it is so full you can't fully reverse to the back. In order to fit two 4 door sedans, we had to pile bikes and beach equipment over the doorway to the house and then back cars up until they were touching bumpers. It was difficult to get in and out with the cars due to the tight squeeze. Overall, I think this was a great rental and if you have one car and kids aged like 4-12, you'll have a great time here. Our stay just had a few hiccups and we struggled with the garage space.

Thanks for your review, Nathan! Due to liability reasons, we do not provide specific child / baby gear. We are sorry for the small inconvenient that arose during your stay. Gladly they were solved within reasonable time. Like almost all the coastal houses in the area, the parking is limited, which is why we listed the size of the garage and the alternatives in case certain vehicles do not fit. Thank you!
Pros:
Location was fantastic. Just a few houses in either direction to either beach or bay. Views from front balcony were lovely. Perfect sunset views.
The house itself was perfectly appointed. I honestly have not ever seen a kitchen so well stocked at a rental. The beds and linens were amazingly comfortable (my teen wanted to get the name of the mattress and bedding). Furnishings were clean and cozy. Lots of extra blankets and pillows. *could have used a few more beach towels but plenty of bath towels.
Management company was communicative and always gave a prompt response. Check in/out was a breeze.
Cons:
2 hours before arrival we were notified that the AC/heat units were not functional and would not be repaired until after our stay. They DID provide space heaters and fans for our comfort. Fortunately, the weather was lovely and with the heaters/fans were perfectly comfortable.
2nd day the clothes washer would not drain and was not able to be repaired until after our stay. This was VERY uncomfortable as we had packed counting on being able to wash clothes. We were told we could use a laundromat 5 mins away (NOT what I want to be doing on my PTO- especially at this price pt.).
We understand unexpected things happen, but 2 big ticket items during our stay was a bummer. The owner did compensate for our inconvenience which was a nice touch (had to ask though).
Overall would absolutely stay here again. Our family had such a great time we extended our stay an extra day!

Hi Heather, thank you so much for your detailed review highlighting our home! The Cons are definitely understandable— we greatly apologize for the appliance issues we experienced during your stay. We notified you of the hvac issue two hours prior to arrival as that was immediately following our technician’s visit with the unfortunate news. The washing machine was also understandably a major, unforeseen issue and inconvenience. Unpredictable appliance issues are never fun as we never want to negatively impact our guests’ stay and experience with us. We do hope to welcome you back here to enjoy all our working amenities and all the home has to offer again!
This was the perfect place for us to stay! The house was very clean, and very well appointed. Owners were super responsive too. Pictures and descriptions of the place were spot on. Highly recommend!

Thank you so much for your review! We enjoyed hosting you and would love to welcome you again here :)
Every review so far has been a 5 and we can see why. Everything was described accurately. You won’t need anything they have surf boards, boogie boards, bikes, wagon, toys, everything for the beach. You cross one light to get to the beach it was perfect. It’s In a clean neighborhood. The bedding was amazing. Beds were firm but the bedding and pillows were so comfotable. The fire pit table on the patio was awesome. We loved everything about our stay. This part of the beach was so soft and so close to the Belmont park.
