This is our seventh consecutive summer enjoying this amazing oceanfront house. It has become tradition for my Arizona family to meet us Californians here in Mission Beach. We love it here and are already planning to come back next year. So appreciate the host and are even friendly with the cleaners. Thank you so much.

Beach house with ocean views.

This house was in a perfect location. Walking distanctance to restaurants and bars and a few steps away from the boardwalk and beach. We loved the beachy feel of the house and the view out the windows especially at sunset.

Beachfront bliss

This was a fantastic place for a beach getaway. Everything you need for a relaxing and enjoyable time. The kitchen was very well stocked and there are plenty of bath and beach towels. Accra to laundry if needed. Very clean and comfortable with sleeping room for lots of people! Check in was easy and they were so kind in accommodating an early check in for us. We plan to come back for sure!

Mission beach stay

Excellent location, walking distance to stores, right on the boardwalk. Hosts were great communicators. I would definitely return. Two things I would change would be to take advantage of the parking available onsite and rent the upper apartment. Ground floor has less privacy. and rent the upper

Family vacation

Location of this property can’t be any closer to the sand and water. We rented both the top and bottom units. Both were spotless and well maintained. Garage is full of anything and everything you need for the beach. Check in was quick and easy, had a few questions upon arrival and Becky was quick to respond with the info. Thanks for a great time!

Family and 50th Anniversary

We had 10 people and had a great time. We were celebrating our 50th Anniversary with our kids and grand kids. We really enjoyed the location. Walk out the door and you're on the beach. Restaurants within walking distance. Plenty of chairs, towels and beach toys. We would come back again. Teri and Becky were very easy to work with.

Mission Beach boardwalk

We were pleasantly surprised upon arrival- this beach house is much better in person. Right on the boardwalk for people watching/walking /biking etc. Patio is tucked on the side which gives some privacy and also blocks the wind if the mornings are chilly. A nice table to play games outside and watch the sunset. Beautiful front windows bring the natural light in and great ocean views!

Great Location - Fun Place

We enjoyed our stay here very much. It would be hard to find a place closer to the water. The owners were responsive and super sweet!! We rented the lower level and the family above us had small children. It was noisy. I think renting the entire house would be the way to go next time. I'd also recommend shades on the front windows. When we had the lights on, we felt like we were on stage. We heard people on the sidewalk comment on the movies we were watching. I was wearing a KC Chiefs hat and fellow fan tapped on the window and gave us a cheer. LOL!

The location is perfect, far enough away from the really busy part of the beach, but within walking distance of so many places to eat and the grocery store. It was so fun to open the blinds in the am and watch everyone on the boardwalk. We would stay again in a heart beat!

We had the most amazing time in San Diego. The location was amazing right on the boardwalk, short walk to the beach, shops and dining, breathtaking views and extremely kid friendly. It was an easy check in and check out process and the homeowners answered all of my questions and were extremely accommodating. 10/10 recommend staying here and we definitely will be back again very soon!!!

Second time staying here, went great again. This is an annual family tradition that we have been doing for 30 years. As our family has grown, this has been a great new rental to house more people, specifically children. Communication is great. The property is always clean and has a lot to offer. Very convenient.

Great Location, Perfect Set up

The property was well kept, clean, everything in working order. Stocked with a decent amount of kitchen items and more than enough towels, blankets and pillows. Great location, very nice beach for boogie boarding and catching waves. Easy access to food options and a 20 minute walk to Belmont Park. Lots of fireworks on July 4th without having to leave the porch. Would definitely stay here again.
