Janet & Scott are your hosts. We are a husband and wife team and we live nearby. We own and operate Mission Beach Villas, a highly rated vacation rental management business in San Diego.

We are available 7 am to 10 pm to answer questions during your stay.

Our storefront rental office, Mission Beach Villas, is a mile away as well, so if you need anything feel free to stop by! If you have an early flight, you may stow your luggage at our office so you can go to lunch or hang out on the beach until check-in time. And if you have an afternoon flight on checkout day you may also stow luggage. Just coordinate these details with us and we are happy to accommodate. Please note, we charge a small nominal fee for luggage storage.

Before your stay, we are happy to suggest our favorite restaurants, and tourist attractions and will help you get acquainted with the area.

The best thing about the neighborhood is there is so much within walking distance you may not need a car. You could just take a taxi from the airport (6 miles away), get dropped off here and you're at the beach! We have local restaurants, trendy beach bars, excellent coffee spots, and breakfasts cafes all within a few short blocks. Sea World is just 3 miles away.

The location is the best spot of all of Mission Beach. It is on the south side of Santa Clara Place (the only traffic light in North Mission Beach), which means a non commercial area. It is far enough (1 mile) north of the roller coaster area so it's very removed from the tourist noise. It is off of the main boulevard with friendly neighbors and a quiet homey atmosphere.

Recreational opportunities abound. This beach rental is a few minutes walking distance to Santa Clara point where there are numerous recreation activities and rentals available including: stand up paddle boards, kayaks, jet skis, windsurfing, catamarans, sail boats, water ski boats, and even jet packs. There are group classes and private lessons available in all of these activities. What's more there are free yoga classes each day on the beach and two courts north.

It is equally centered between Belmont Park (the roller coaster area) and Crystal Pier in Pacific Beach, which are both 1 mile away, making this location accessible to the action if that's what you want.

There is a fantastic surf spot at the beach for beginner to advanced surfers and great for spectators as well. There are affordable surf lessons offered daily in the beach by our friends at Surfari Surf School. What's more, we can point you to all the best surf spots in San Diego County. And we have two world class board shapers who live on our block in case you want to get a new surf board while you are here.

We offer self-check in via keyless digital entry with private access. There are no keys to lose, just a simple 4 digit passcode to remember.

Included with the rental is the use of boogie boards, beach towels, beach chairs, beach umbrellas, and sand toys for the kids. Plus there is a rental shop just a 3 minute walk away that rents beach cruiser bikes, surfboards, stand up paddle boards, kayaks, etc. They have very affordable rates, plus tell them "Janet & Scott" sent you and the rental shop will give you an additional 15% off!

If you bring a car we will provide you with one parking space on site in the garage. Keep in mind that the space will accommodate only a compact or mid-size car. (There is street parking and free parking lots nearby if your car is larger than mid-size.)

If you're looking for a relaxing beach getaway look no further!

This cozy little beach vacation rental is a totally detached apartment on the second floor above the garage so you don't have to worry about neighbors below or above you. Your space is very private and personal.

It is positioned in the heart of Mission Beach, a gorgeous beach community on a super narrow strip of land between the Pacific Ocean and Mission Bay. Walk 2 minutes in either direction (West or East) and you'll encounter pristine white beaches. Both sides have wide boardwalks for bicycle riding or walking. On the bay-side you'll enjoy a relaxing sail bay with a calm atmosphere, while on the ocean-side you'll enjoy ocean waves for surfing or boogie boarding. Either way, you'll call it paradise. We simply call it home!

The vacation rental features one bedroom, one bathroom, cozy living room, and a fully supplied kitchen. There is a queen size bed in the bedroom and a queen sofa bed in the living room. The space is 540 square feet.

The kitchen includes a stove, refrigerator, microwave, blender, toaster, and a Keurig coffee maker. We supply you with all the cooking pans, dishes, and utensils you might need. There are the usual kitchen gadgets such as bottle openers and cork screws.

The living room comes complete with a flat screen TV. It is equipped with Roku which includes Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Hulu, and many other channel options available with your login credentials. We also offer free WIFI and plenty of outlets to keep you plugged in.

The vacation rental comes supplied with all the basics you'd expect at any hotel like a hair dryer and iron. Plus you have a kitchen and living room to enjoy. We think of everything you might need and even stock you with beach towels so you don't need to pack those in your suitcase. Why stay at a hotel when you can stay in the comfort of your own home in a friendly neighborhood? Vacation like a local.

To orient you here are some distances from the home:
100 feet to the ocean
3 miles to Sea World
4 miles to La Jolla Cove
5 miles to Historic Old Town
6 miles to San Diego Airport
9.5 miles to San Diego Zoo/Balboa Park
10 miles to Gaslamp Quarter

If you don't bring a car you will be fine. Many guests have come without a car and get around quite easily. Restaurants, shops, and convenience stores are within walking distance.

It is less than a 10-15 minute walk to Belmont Park where there is a giant roller coaster, rides, games, restaurants, bars, and shops.

Uber/Lyft options are readily available for local transport at an affordable rate. If you've never used this service before download the phone app and you may find a discount code for first-time riders online.

Riding bikes along the boardwalk is usually the most scenic way to get around and take in the atmosphere. We provide 15% off for beach cruiser bicycles at a nearby rental shop just 3 blocks away that rents bikes by the hour, day, or the week. They also rent surfboards, wetsuits, standup paddle boards and a lot of other fun beach equipment.

There is also a bus stop a few yards away that travels down Mission Blvd and will take you to Old Town in minutes. At Old Town there is a major transportation hub where you can transfer to any other bus line or transfer to the Trolley (San Diego's metro line) which will take you downtown.

Perfect place to stay the week at Mission Beach! Kitchen was well appointed - living space was the perfect size for us - short walk to ocean side or bay side. Communication with property management was excellent. Would stay there again!

The place is very clean, lovely, and well stocked. Janet and Scott came up with a great solution to a logistical issue we had. We had everything we needed. Great to have the a/c units and they doubled as sound machines to block out street noise.

The apartment was comfortable and just as it appeared online. It is in a great location, just a block from Mission Beach & a half block from Mission Bay. It's within walking distance of restaurants, groceries and the library. Having a garage was a big plus, although it was a tight fit for our car. The hosts were helpful and very responsive. All in all, a good experience.

The hosts were super helpful and responsive. The apt was nice and spacious. The small garage took some getting used to.
