About this apartment rental

Very small (under 400 sq ft) & cozy 1 bedroom located in the heart of San Diego's most famous beach community. Just steps to Mission Bay, the beach, the Boardwalk and Belmont Park, Only 1.5 blocks to the beach, and only two doors from the Bay! Only has 1 queen bed and a very small sofa for a small child.

Please note, this is literally the center of MB, less than a block from Belmont, which is great, but expect a lot of people and possibly traffic congestion especially during spring & summer.

While some may compare San Diego's Mission Beach to the East Coast's Atlantic City and Coney Island, there is a unique Southern California vibe you can't find anywhere else here. Nestled between Pacific Beach on the north side, and Belmont Park on its southern side, Mission Beach offers a lively and robust variety of activities in the sun, surf and sand. From hot dog stands to fine dining eateries, hot night clubs to street performers, expect to find all kinds of free-spirited beach goers in a fun, carnival-like atmosphere along the sandy shores.

Photos were taken in 2015. Please expect normal wear and tear over that time period. Furniture and furnishings may be different than pictured as items are replaced and updated.

Perfect little spot in the heart of Mission Beach

We absolutely love this place! Be sure to read this description, it is small and it is in a fairly busy area with a nightlife in Mission Beach. We had no trouble with noise though. It’s easy access to the bay and the beach and lots of restaurants. We would definitely stay here again. Owners were extremely responsive and very easy to work with as well. In our opinion, there’s no downside to this stay location.

Poor representation of property

Poor representation of property

Location was very noisy as it was on the main street. The accommodation was advertised as sleeping 4 adults. One queen size bed up against the wall with a framed sign on the wall telling occupants to "please do not attempt to use, sleeper sofa is inoperable". Couch slanted toward floor, so you rolled off during the night. No drawers anywhere to store clothing, and no hangers in the small closet. The furniture was pictured as white and was all grey (unimportant, but not accurate). 3 towels for 3 people for a 6 night stay. My point, for the most part, is that it should be advertised as a cute, small accommodation for a couple. We made the best of it.

My two night stay was enhanced by the location, location, location of this condo. Small: yes — but the cute front patio was my go-to relaxing place. Watching this beach community tick was huge fun. Landlord is super nice, easy to communicate with. And I was grateful that a 2-night stay was fine (many places have 3-Day minimums in the summer). Give this a try!!

We had a great time in the Mission Beach area.

This property is very central to everything in Mission Beach. We had access to great restaurants and pubs as well as bicycle rentals. Everything was nice and clean when we arrived. The kitchenette had everything we needed for breakfast meals. The owners were responsive when we called to ask to park earlier than our arrival time (parking is very limited in this area). The only shortcoming was that we weren't really able to enjoy the 2nd story deck as water from recent rains was ponded up on the surface. Also, this deck space is not super private as it butts up to the neighboring property. Despite this, we really enjoyed our stay and would stay here again.

This was my first time travelling to California, and I had a great time staying in Mission Beach. The apartment is only a block from the boardwalk and there are tons of great food spots nearby. The room can get pretty hot during the day, but the sea breeze helps at night. The owners were very helpful and informative, so getting settled in was quick and easy. I would recommend this location for those who want to stay close to Belmont Park and the beach.

Not clean.

Not clean.

Nicely decorated, too bad that level of care didn't carry over into the cleanliness. Stains on comforter, walls and baseboards need cleaning and/or painting. Garbage not emptied, coffee pot still had old grounds and coffee in it. Old unwashed sheet crumpled up in hide-a-bed.

Right in the middle of everything!

Right in the middle of everything!

I couldn't get over how everything was just a few steps away. A block and a half to Mission Beach and also the bay. Plenty of places to chose from to eat, drink, shop, etc. The kitchen was well stocked. The place was just as shown in the pictures. People mention how small it is but it tells you in the description the square footage so this should not be a surprise. This was much better than staying in a hotel. The patio was great and nice view of Belmont Park. I read reviews that discussed how noisy it is but it's right in the middle of all the action so it was expected and didn't bother the three of us one bit. You have dedicated parking for two cars if you need the parking space. If I came back to San Diego with a small group, I would certainly stay here again!

An excellent place to stay.

The apartment is small, but has everything we needed to enjoy our time in San Diego. The location was excellent. Mission Beach is laid back, easy to get around, with lots of great eating choices. We had a little trouble with the TV, but Drew (the owner) showed up within an hour to fix the problem. Very impressive. Would recommend this unit.

Minimal.

Minimal.

I felt the condo was too small, too expensive for what you got, and queen bed woke us up every time we turned over because the box spring made a loud noise. On a positive note, the location was central to a lot of activity areas and restaurants, so people without a car could walk to many locations. Also, the manager we had contact with was very responsive.

The condo was small but cute. The location was perfect for beach time and Belmont Park was awesome! The location is close to the airport so it can be noisy at times. The bed left a bit to be desired, but wasn’t a total deal-breaker for us.

nice budget accommodation

nice budget accommodation

The location is handy. If you are looking for a Mission Beach area stay on a budget, this is a good choice. Like someone else said, it could use a deep clean - ie windows, window screens and baseboards. I appreciated the window over the bed, but not the fact that the screen was very dirty and you need that window open for circulation.

We absolutely loved our stay! My mother and I rented the place for a weekend, it was close to the beach, theme park, restaurants, Starbucks, etc. It was the perfect size, had everything we needed, and we really enjoyed relaxing on the patio with a cocktail in the evenings. Would definitely return!

Wonderful small getaway.

Wonderful small getaway.

For fear of having more people want to stay here, we had a great stay in Mission Bay/Beach! This was a great location close to the beach and shops and food, and also Mission Bay. So you had both areas from which to choose, walkable along either side with large park areas all around; and you're only 15 minutes from downtown. The ONLY reason I don't give this 5 stars is that it doesn't have cable, although there are hookups for a variety of Wi-Fi inputs; and it's right on the boulevard and a bit noisy on the weekend evenings. Don't expect a resort setting, but do enjoy the proximity to it all for much less than a stale hotel room elsewhere! Chris
