This property was very enjoyable for our family - all 3 generations. Communication, payments and ease of entry were all exemplary. The home itself had a terrific floor plan with a cool mix of retro and modern touches. Linens and towels were of fine quality and plentiful. The location was perfect for biking, walking and being on the bay with your SUPs. Great parking too!!

Great week!

The house was nice for several couples in our family to stay. The front and back yard areas were perfect for spending time with family and there was a nice big table for games and puzzles. Excellent location, only a few houses away from the bay and less than a 10 min walk to the beach for surfing lessons, food, and more. We had a great time!

Fantastic Mission Bay Home

Stayed here with my family while in town for a conference. The location is absolutely amazing, steps away from the beach with nice outdoor areas and huge parking. Rooms were nicely sized and comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed. Very happy with our stay and would absolutely stay here again next time we are in San Diego!

We had a great stay. House is in an excellent location with plenty of driveway parking. Street parking can be tricky as it’s a popular place for locals to park to access the bay. The street fills up with bay water during high tide, so this can be a bit tricky. House interior is typical of the old beach bungalows. Popcorn ceilings, kinda musty smelling, wish the windows would have been cleaned on the outside. My grandson had black feet after running around on the wood floors. But the sheets and towels were clean. We were on the go and do wish we were able to stay longer. Walking the boardwalk, massage at the Catamaran, Sea World, Disneyland and dinner at Filippi’s with friends and family. We would stay again.

Oasis close to the beach

This lovely 4-bedroom home was the perfect spot to stay with two families. The home has been well-maintained, with lovely built-in cabinets and hardwood floors. The fenced-in patio gave a sense of privacy for outdoor dining. The best part was the beach, only 4 houses away. Highly recommended.
