The property was excellent. The views were fantastic, we had a great stay enough room for all of us. Everyone enjoyed their time, and the location was perfect for kids and the adults to enjoy each the beach the bay, and also just the views of The jetty

We loved this home. There were 8 of us staying with the graduate and his friends visiting for celebrations here.. Plenty of room for all of us to be comfortable and also to host brunch on the morning of graduation and barbecue on the afternoon of grandson’s Air Force Commissioning.
Great views of the ocean/beach and bay.
The noise from the airport jets taking off in the early AM was major though…no sleeping once they began their ascent and then througout, the day, less disruptive as the day progressed as you are up and about then and so the noise does not create the same upset/disturbance to the peace and quiet as in the early morning.

We had a wonderful stay and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a condo with a view that will keep your eyes busy and your soul happy! The condo is set up perfectly to share with another couple and even has a 3rd bedroom for the kiddos. You can watch some beach volleyball, boats coming and going and humanity at its finest. Anything you would ever need is there for you and I can't say enough about how incredible our hosts were. They checked on us each day and made us feel very cared for.

The house is beautiful with an amazing panoramic view of the ocean and spacious master suite. Great floorplan and plenty of room for everyone to spread out. Dana and Becky were terrific hosts, extremely responsive and easy to communicate with. The South Mission Beach location is much better than Central Mission Beach with privacy on your balcony instead of tons of foot traffic in front of you when trying to relax on the patio, but close enough for a short walk or bike to Central Mission Beach of Pacific Beach. Would highly recommend this place and hosts. Can't wait to go back!

Spent an amazing week in Mission Beach with a family of 10. Property was extremely clean and communication with hosts was seamless. Plenty of space and outstanding views!

Had a good stay. There was construction noise but owners were in touch the whole time and were very understanding, as well as warning us beforehand when we booked the stay so we can't hold it against them. Views from the balconies, especially the master bedroom, are about as good as you can get. The furniture is a bit worn but an incredibly comfy couch. My only issue related to the condo itself is that the kitchen unfortunately doesn't live up to the rest of the listing. It doesn't seem to have been updated for a few decades and is worse than the photos make it look: I wouldn't plan on doing much cooking. Aside from that we had a great stay, especially considering the short notice on our booking and that they allowed our cat, which no other listing in the area did.

This place was plenty of room for our group of 9. And the views were fantastic!
We arrived at a busy time of day on a Saturday so it took us twenty minutes to drive the street to the condo thanks to lots of traffic at Belmont Park. Somehow I hadn’t noticed that there was only one way in/out to the unit so that was kind of a pain (poor observation on my part but something to take more of!).
The unit itself was more dated than it appeared in the pics but it was comfortable and had everything we needed. There was no A/C and in August it was hot and muggy. Thankfully, there were stand fans everywhere so it wasn’t too bad. Also, I am not normally a fan of foam mattresses but was surprised to find these didn’t hurt my back. The patios are much smaller than they appear in the pictures. There’s a note that the fridge is struggling but it was fine for us.
Our group had two Suburbans so parking was stressful but they fit in the two spots provided. Yay!
The best part was the beach access. We spent our week being busy but each day we wandered down to the volleyball courts or beach. It was so cool being right there! Beaches were busy but clean.
Overall, this is a perfect spot if you love the beach and plan on staying there the entire trip. If you plan on being busy with day trips, this might not be the ideal place due to the single entrance/exit and the chaos of Belmont Park.

Wonderful Fit for Our Family & Friends
This rental offered plenty of space for our group of 10 people. The location was honestly breathtaking and the beach was right out the front door. It was very close to many of the wonderful attractions San Diego has to offer as many locations were less than 20 minutes away. Parking was a breeze and provided our vehicles with a safe place to park. Overall it was a wonderful stay and definitely would book again! :)

50th Wedding Anniversary
We had our 50th wedding anniversary and invited our Children and grandchildren to stay with us for the weekend to celebrate.
This home was plenty large enough to accommodate all 12 of us for a perfect weekend. The kitchen was well equipped and plenty of seating for our anniversary prime rib dinner. It was so enjoyable to sit on our patio with our morning coffee and watch all the activity on the jetty and the volleyball courts. Dana and Becky were very responsive for any questions or problems. We hope we are able to stay in this home again.

Clean and Comfy
We had a great time. Beds were comfy and plenty of of space to spread out. Location is convenient to both beach and bay sides and has beautiful views. Note that this is a busy, well trafficed beach area and not one of the more quiet places on the bay.

Family time
My family really enjoyed staying at this place. Loved walking the boardwalk. Place was clean, loved sitting out on the patio with view of ocean. Hosts were great. They respond quickly if you have any problems. Will definitely rent this place again.

Amazing location and space
This was an amazing place to stay. Plenty of space and room for everyone. The only thing was that the home wasn’t really children friendly. There were wall to floor mirrors and side tables that had glass top. One of our kids leaned on it and it slid off and shattered. We contacted Dana and Becky for a vacuum to clean up or to send the cleaners and they were quick to respond. We would definitely stay there again. It was very close to the beaches and our children enjoyed the short walk. Thank you for having us!

Relaxing
The Overall Property Was Really Nice And Cozy ... Needed a little cleaning ,but was a simple easy fix .... Enjoyed my stay ,property owners was quick to fix issues within the unit and if they couldn't fix it they would easily accommodate... I would have given them 5 stars but the dryer didn't work so my family clothes ddnt get dry before they had to leave ,and the closets were a little dusty ... I loved the Jett tub 😍, it was heaven ,and the steam room was freaking awesomeeeee.... loved the decor of the property ... I would definitely stay again and highly recommend them

Perfect Beach Getaway
This was the perfect beach getaway. It was close enough to all the activities but far away enough to enjoy the privacy. The unit was well equipped with everything we could possibly need. I would definitely recommend and would stay here again.

Beautiful views
This property has beautiful views and a great location. We stayed on the 3rd floor and really enjoyed watching all the activity in the bay/ocean and surrounding beach areas. The building has underground parking and a proper elevator for moving all your stuff. Everything was clean and organized. We very much enjoyed our stay!

60th Birthday week
After our Alaskan cruise was cancelled, this became our back up plan. We stayed in both Penthouse units. Our family loved our time here, it was wonderful! They had literally everything we needed to cook, and also beach toys and chairs, high chairs, port a cribs. It was truly wonderful.

Mission Beach Getaway
The Mission Beach Penthouse worked out perfectly for out trip to California. Everything went smoothly from the online process to checking in and checking out. We enjoyed sitting on the balcony watching the sun rise and set as ships came and went through the inlet. Definitely a postcard view, even saw some seals. The designated parking gave us peace of mind after returning from site seeing during the day. I would highly recommend staying here and would like to plan a return trip.

A great property!
We had a great time at this property. It was close enough to everything we wanted to do but far enough away from the crowds to get some peace and quiet.

Clean, modern, best location easy access to everything. Landlord promptly responded to questions.
The best views and locale to surf and paddle back bay. This end of mission beach is more peaceful than closer to Belmont park. Kitchen and baths were well equipped with toiletries. It was so wonderful we are plannind to book again.

Amazing spot for a large group.
Thank you so much for a great stay in San Diego. The units were well stocked beyond our expectations. It was a great location for our group and all of the activities we were doing while there. Becky and Jenelle were awesome to work with in planning our visit. And the view...amazing!! Everyone in our group said this was a place worth coming back to.

Perfect location! Amazing views! Perfect size for 2 families to split for a memorable vacation!
The condo was at the end of the amazing Mission Beach, just far enough removed from the crowds while still being situated within a 5 minute WALK to the ocean, the bay and a playground (and only ~15-20 min walk to Belmont Park). The views from within the condo were stunning and were a constant reminder of why you chose to vacation on Mission Beach/Bay. The condo complex contained super convenient beach gear storage & showers on the first floor so your beach toys & sand didn't have to come back upstairs with you. The unit itself was clean and stocked with all of the non-perishable essentials you need while having space to store anything extra that you wanted. The furniture was comfortable and had plenty of seating options for probably ~12 people (estimating as our group was only 7 total, 4 adults + 3 toddlers). The king bed in the 2nd bedroom (the one I stayed in) had a memory foam topper or similar on it which made it very comfortable as well. Only thing to nit pick on would be the 2 glass-topped side tables in the living room - not a great choice for 3 toddlers, but far from a reason to drop a star.
There are about 6 different entry codes or locks to remember which is hard, so make sure to have them available on your phone or printed for reference. The only one that gave us trouble was the one for the garbage as it wasn't as easy to unlatch and relatch as we expected (or even easy to locate!). We also found it strange that there wasn't a recycling bin available; I guess that is some local regulation or something.
The 2 times I contacted the management company during our stay they replied and addressed our concerns immediately (once because the cable box was on the fritz and once to dispose of something in a common area we unexpectedly came across). Neither issue was their fault but they remedied them asap to ensure our stay remained great - you can't ask for more than that!
For dog people: There is a grassy area with a public dog poop bag dispenser and garbage can on the back side of the condo complex. This made it SUPER convenient to just grab our dog and leave without having to search for poop bags or lug full bags back with us - one more reason this location rocks!
Overall we had a WONDERFUL vacation in this condo! It's got everything you need and the price was great - we definitely would stay here again! 😀

Beautiful views
We had a great time in this rental for the week. The views were great of the channel and you can even see the sunsets on the ocean from the living room. There is a great breeze that comes in the windows and patio doors.
The owners were very accommodating and kept in touch to make sure we had everything we needed.
I would recommend this unit.

A Nice Place, Had Some Minor Issues
It's a nice place, with a great view. We found a lot of minor maintenance issues. In his defense, owner offered to send a contractor over, but since we had two small children with us, that would have been pretty disruptive.

Great property and location
We have stayed in this property several times in the past, and expect to do so again in the future. I would certainly recommend it to friends or relatives, especially if they want to stay in a comfortable, spacious location within a couple of minutes walk of the main beach, and have a great view of all the activity in the small-boat channel leading from Mission Bay to the open ocean.
We have had good experiences with the manger over the years. In our experience, when unexpected issues have arisen, the manager has dealt with them promptly and effectively.
In my view, description of the property in the website listing accurately describes the property. The elevator was under repair while we were there this time, and we were informed of that beforehand. The manager offered to have someone there to assist with our luggage on arrival. We declined the offer, as it is no big deal for us to pack our stuff up a couple of flights of stairs. Even when the elevator is operational, we almost always use the stairs instead. We understand that the elevator is back in operation (and it might have been while we were still there - we didn't check).
The property was clean and well maintained. All of the systems within the unit seemed to be operating properly. We have never had a problem with break-ins. However, I would recommend that the locking mechanism for the sliding patio door into one of the bedrooms be upgraded from the standard "lever-lock" mechanism to something that would be a little more pick-proof.
The property is well-located for getting around San Diego, although at certain times (e.g. a fine Saturday afternoon) the traffic over the bridge crossing Mission Bay gets a bit backed up. At most times, it is only 5 minutes or so from the property to I5 or I8 or Sea World, less than 10 minutes to Old Town, 15 minutes to downtown, the zoo, etc.

Nice view
The view is the only nice thing to say the over all appearance is older the t.v didn’t work properly kept going out, outlets were old and loose, the elevator was out of order and a large rock was used as a door stop for main building door entrance which is a tripping hazard in the dark. The over all feeling was not very welcoming any noise is taken as a party. You are under constant scrutiny like they expect you to be a noisy teenager instead of adults enjoying a nice weekend by the beach. Plus frequent phone calls as well as drop in visits from someone listed as contact persons make you feel on edge. We accidentally parked in the wrong space, one spot over from the right space but instead of just asking for us to move we were called spoken down to like they were lecturing a child then threatened to be kicked out if it wasn’t moved. No room for error here so besides a nice view it felt like an overall stressful stay at your mean old aunts house

Lovely home!
So grateful to have gotten this beautiful rental on short notice! Came out to SD to visit my daughter and couldn't have asked for a nicer place. The home was beautiful, clean and everything you could possibly want or need for a comfortable stay. The views were simply spectacular ! Thank you Becky and Dana!
