About this property

Charming Beach One-Bedroom, Avail. NOW & for Thanksgiving! It's beautiful here!

Located in North Mission Beach, at 739 Yarmouth Court, San Diego, CA, this is a Charming One-bedroom Condo on the ground floor with a kitchenette & service for 4, a bath, a living room, a bedroom and an adjacent lush patio with brand new Saltillo tile! It is one unit of a 2 unit home with it's own entrance..
It is the perfect economical alternative to a hotel stay for a couple or a small family, (with only one small quiet child - a crib is available). Only steps to the sand, (about 200 feet), on a quiet courtyard we're also just a short walk to restaurants, shops, and a myriad of outdoor activities...and it's really nice! There’s so much to do here and enjoy. .
If you're here in San Diego please come by and take a look.
Now with a New Samsung TV and a reworked entertainment center, a Brand New Dresser in the bedroom, a new Fire/CO fire extinguisher and the couch has been professionally cleaned with new foam in the seat cushions. The Place is REALLY NICE! And a real deal if you find me direct: David Lombardi, Architect/Builder, Mission Beach, San Diego.
Please check the calendar for availability. Oh ya, did I mention it's really nice?! ...and it's beautiful here now!

Beach Property

This is a small but nice place to stay if you want to be able to walk 100 yards to the beach and if you want to pay a reasonable fee. Location is fantastic and is close to restaurant and a supermarket. The beach was fantastic.

Fantastic location

Easy check in. Dave makes himself available by text and usually checks in once a day on his comings and goings. The space is perfect for two. Super quiet both days and nights with just a 45 second walk right to the boardwalk and beach. Enjoyed coffee on the boardwalk wall people watching every morning. Everything you could need within walking distance. And Dave gave us a great hike recommendation in SD that was fantastic. I’d easily stay again.

Great getaway location

Super easy check-in process and a great, quiet location for 2 people, with just a short walk right to the boardwalk and beach if you want to be in the action. Dave lives in the home above the rental so he usually checks in once a day on his comings and goings and he is always responsive to texts if you need anything. As he is a longtime resident and the architect of many of the homes in the area, he has great info on places and activities to enjoy. We enjoyed people watching on the boardwalk wall and the different vibe that each day would bring. Everything you could need within walking distance and we enjoyed exploring the beach community with a comfortable place to come back to and relax.

Small, great access to beach

Cute little place. Getting hot water to the kitchenette was problematic. Really designed for you to eat out, though we prepared half our evening meals. Only table to eat at is outside. Place was reasonably clean on arrival, with the exception of top of cabinet. Considering what places go for, it was a fair price. There is no parking, except on the street. We typically had to park 3 blocks away. We found it quite, and it met our needs nicely.

You Get What You Pay For

SD near the beach is pricey, so this unit is cheaper than most. But it is funky. Coffee maker was filthy, kitchen very inefficient, bbq so old and dirty as to be unusable, outdoor furniture old. And part of the rental agreement is that you have to vacuum and mop the floors before checking out--really!

Great location with some concerns about property

The location is wonderful and the place is cute. The MAIN concern is he told if we left the heater on at night we may not wake up in the morning because of the gas being pumped into the home. We stayed in February and it was freezing in the place. We were skeptical he was lying to avoid paying a larger gas bill, but either way, it was worrisome and we did not leave the heat running for long periods of time....and FROZE. There is NO carbon monoxide detector in the home. We asked for an early check-in and for a $40 fee we were able to do that. We were running late and he texted me upset that we were not there yet, that he had been waiting. It had only been an hour. If he were willing to give us the check-in instructions, he would not have had to wait. The place could use a very thorough cleaning, especially the blinds in the bedroom and blinds on one side of the house in the living room, there is film on those and on every glass framed piece of art in the place. You do need to clean the property before you leave or he will charge you $75 fee. That includes sweeping, mopping, stripping the bed and vacuuming the bedroom. I believe this is the clean that he does prior to the next guest.....he does not have a cleaning crew....but, claims he does. If he did, the place would be much cleaner. We would have stayed again with a note privately to David on these concerns. But, at the end of the stay he knocks you with a percentage fee that he does not want to absorb from the short term company, so you get stuck with that. That was the cherry on top of a "alright" stay that I felt we should warn people what they will be getting themselves into. He just needs to take a little time and better effort on the customer service of things, because the place is so cute and in a great location. I didn't want to knock him too hard....but, people should know the truth.

One thing that was upsetting was that there wasn’t onsite parking as described in the details. There is only street parking which can be difficult to find and you have to move your car each weekday to avoid citations. I may not have chosen this place had I known this portion. There were some cleanliness issues in the kitchen, but the overall stay was good. The short walk to the beach was perfect.

Very Small/ no parking- but beach is nice and accessible

Bedroom was teensy. Unable to walk around it. Had to shimmy in & out Kitchen- appliances put up way too high, unable to access. And absolutely no parking. Owner said it wouldn’t be a problem since it was off season- still had to park several blocks away. Can’t imagine how far away you would park if summer. And there were ants, in both kitchen and bathroom. Owner seemed surprised but there was ant spray underneath the kitchen sink

Skeptical owner involvement

On first arrival, the owner was there to meet us to let us in. He provided a list of many rules for our stay and gave us the door code. Two days later, we receive a note that states he asked us to please turn off lights when we left and that we had not three times. This was extremely unsettling because it made us feel like we were being watched or he was entering the property while we were gone with all of our belongings out. Our last night, he knocks on our door around 10 PM to ask us what humming noise we were making and he walks through the door to look around. I was asleep in the bedroom with my white noise playing and my mom was in the living room. They weren’t sure what caused the noise and he leaves. Approximately 10 minutes later, he comes back and knocks on the door to ask again what the humming is and says he can hear it on the side of the wall. He asked my mom multiple questions and it finally occurred to her it must be my white noise playing so he leaves again. The next morning he comes back down again to bring us a vaccum to clean the apartment with. The place was not properly cleaned on our arrival, with a dirty bathroom and hair still in the shower from a prior guest. The shower also does not drain well and the water quickly accumulated. Altogether, his behavior made us feel unsettled and like we were being watched during our stay.

About the host

Hosted by David Lombardi

Host profile image
I'm an architect/builder. I built this house single-handed, literally. I made the rental place much nicer than a hotel room - much! I'm sure you'll like it.
The vacation rental unit also allows me to meet great folks from all over the planet, which I love. ...and I painted the living room/kitchen, (8/21) and the bedroom, (10/21).
Thanks

Why they chose this property

I wanted a beach house in San Diego. Who doesn't? It was just a termite ridden shack when I bought it, but I built it into something very nice. Come and enjoy!

What makes this property unique

NOTE: Even with the pandemic mostly behind us I am still washing every piece of bedclothes from the mattress cover through the sheets, bedspread, blankets, down comforter and even the pillows between each rental. (Yes, it takes all day and 5 loads of laundry to do so). Additionally I am wiping down all countertops, door knobs, entertainment equipment fridge, microwave and the entire bathroom with Clorox disinfectant spray. The shower gets treated with Clorox/Tilex anti-mildew/mold spray which is also a powerful disinfectant capable of killing Staphyloccocus aureus, (Staph), Streptococcus pyogenes, (Strep), Trichophyton mentagrophytes, (Athlete's foot), and Aspergilus niger. In short, I am doing everything I can think of to make the place clean.
