A Message from the Owner:
We are thankful to be able to provide this lovely Mission Beach home where families from all over the world have stayed, made memories, and filled our guest books with love. Twenty years ago we bought this beach house that our family had rented for many summer vacations starting when our children were babies. We love this house and always called it our beach house; even before we bought it. One summer we arrived to find our beach house was For Sale! It is a dream come true to own this house and we are very thankful for all the fun times it has provided with our friends and family. We look forward to spending many happy years with our children and someday, hopefully, their children in this special place. When we're not at the beach, we live in Scottsdale, Arizona. We have been married for 40 years and have three now grown sons. We love all that San Diego has to offer and never get tired of acting like tourists.

Our family had the best time here! It is conveniently located only a one minute walk to the beach and a 5 minute walk to Belmont Park. All of the necessities were already there which was wonderful! The place is very clean and communication was great with property management. It’s the perfect place to stay for a large family or group!

Our family of 8, 4 kids and parents had an absolute blast at this house. It was clean, and so well stocked. Proximity to the beach was amazing and just a short walk to restaurants, bakery and fun. I highly recommend this house loved the set up of rooms, BBQ on the patio and the roof deck for sun sets. 10/10 stop looking and BOOK!

Very close access to the beach and good area. They had tons of toys, chairs, and boogie boards. Owners were very responsive and gave good food recommendations. We loved hanging out on the roof hammock and front patio. We were also close to many San Diego sights (La Jolla, Sea World, Old Town). Would highly recommend!

We loved everything about our stay! The location was perfect. It was steps from the beach and a very short walk to restaurants, markets, cafes, etc. The house itself was clean and had so many nice indoor and outdoor spaces. We had 8 adults and felt like we had plenty of room. The communication with the management was very prompt and they were able to get us in early and give us a late check out. I know that's not always possible but it's so nice when that can happen. Overall, I would definitely stay here again!

Absolutely no complaints about this property. There was 6 of us, and there was plenty of room for all of us. The house is well stocked with plenty of extra beach towels, towels, and blankets. If you have younger kids, there are gates on the stairs to keep them safe. Close to everything. Highly recommend!

Pros: great communication with hosts, well stocked, great location, good for kids, 2 parking spots, laundry Cons: could definitely use a deep clean (a LOT of dust under beds and behind furniture, cobwebs on ceiling- more common areas were well cleaned). No AC, but they did have tons of fans (these were also super dusty and probably never cleaned).
