We loved our week right on Mission Bay. The house was large and comfortable for everyone in our extended family. Our little ones were safe behind the gates while the adults enjoyed the beautiful view. The house was equipped with kayaks, paddle boards and everything we could possibly need at the beach. We definitely want a repeat!

It was very easy to rent this property. The property manager was responded timely and followed up during our stay.

We had a great week! Everyone was comfortable and we had plenty of room to move about. The kitchen is well stocked and there are lots of beach necessities provided.

Right in the beach!!! Quite great place to stay!!!!!!

The property was great and the location was perfect. We literally couldn't ask for anything different. The Bay offered warm calm waters for our four grandchildren, ages six to thirteen and the beach on the ocean side added some excitement w/ the waves. The property had an abundance of water toys and the house was outfitted w/ everything we needed.

We had more than enough room. Great location and almost the best parking. We can't wait to rent again.

What a amazing location and a home that has everything for our family of eleven! Steps to the bay waterline and a two block walk to the Ocean water line. Beautiful paths to walk right outside your patio or enjoy the view complete with decorated sailboats and fireworks (viewable from sea world show) during our Christmas Week Celebration Communication was excellent and we had a couple first day hiccups which were addressed in person immediately- great customer service! Note twin beds as pictured were now a full size - dissappointed the littles we had, but everything else is great!

The house was perfect and as advertised. It accommodated our large group comfortably with easy access to the beach. The house was set up with everything you need for a great beach house vacation. We are already looking forward to next year!

Need to invest in some kind of professional fly traps.

My family has stayed in many VRBO properties and this was the best that we have stayed. Everything was as advertised and the location was fabulous. We will definitely be staying here again.

Seriously.

Seriously.

We had such a wonderful time. Great Location, Super Clean Home, Very Responsive to Questions/Inquiries. We can't wait to return! Thanks so much for such a great stay!

This property was fantastic and the location is perfect. The bay is a great calm spot for the kids to play in the sand and the paddle boards were a massive hit for everyone. Cindy the property manager was also fantastic. I would recommend the property to anyone!

Loved our stay! We were here the last weekend of March and had amazing weather! The house is filled with everything you could need; beach equipment, baby stuff, Roku on the tv, lots of clean towels and bedding. There is nightly fireworks at Sea World that reflect in the bay. So beautiful. We ordered groceries and food and the delivery guys all knew where to find the place. I did a ton of research and we definitely had the best vacation home on the water. The location is amazing. You are a block away from Starbucks, restaurants, the beach side, Belmont Park. We never drove anywhere except to visit Coronado one day. I loved the Bay side, a lot more quiet and less windy than the beach side. Definitely worth it. And check-in and check-out were a breeze. Great communication with the property manager. Would totally stay here again.

We are local San Diegans with the advantage of knowing how wonderful our beach and bay are so believe me when I say you will not find a finer vacation home for a family stay. The home is beautiful and blessed with four (!) parking spaces. The sunrise and morning peace over Mission Bay is tonic for the soul. We had to postpone from January to March because of the coronavirus and Cindy could not have been more helpfully with the change. She has my eternal gratitude. This was beyond what we hoped for when we planned this family gathering. Memorable!

The house was great for our families to stay while they were in town for our wedding.

This will now be our go-to rental. It was amazing. The owner really understands what it means to accommodate the customer. This house wasn’t just a rental. It was an experience. Our family just left a rental headache at Venice Beach. I felt bad because I booked the Venice Beach rental as well and it was a pain. However, Casa Ballena more than made up for our previous experience. Thank you Casa Ballena! Everything was great.Three words to end “BOOK THIS BEAUTY!”

We had a great time at Casa Balena, and can't wait to come back again! Cindy the Property Manager was awesome, and very helpful. This house is by far one of the best residences on the beach. Nice and quiet with cool neighbors as well. Five stars!

The listing really doesn’t do this property justice. It is a well constructed and elegant home. The location is fantastic with many restaurants and activities with easy walking distance. The property manager is one of the best I’ve ever dealt with. There were some problems with unexpected roadwork and parking and she went above and beyond to make it right. We will be back and friends who visited are also.

Beautiful house! Great location. Plenty of space to spread out.
