This was a great location. Steps from the beach! And it was a 2 bedroom 2 bath which is hard to find. And a private rooftop deck is pretty awesome! It also had a balcony as well where you can sit and watch the waves.Looks like they did charge me a cleaning fee however, even though we spent a good amount of time cleaning upon exit.

This unit was exactly as laid out in the description. Remarkably clean. Had extras we were not expecting such as beach toys, chairs and equipment. Maurice, the host, was amazing. Quick to reply and helpful with anything we needed. The rooftop was the best and is where we spent our evenings eating dinner and drinking wine. Very relaxing. The balcony was perfect for breakfast. Not listed but was fantastic was the taco shop at the end of the street. About a block away. Can't beat tacos and a beach combo. Thank you Maurice for allowing us to have a great birthday weekend.

Host was very responsive and easy to communicate with. The unit has had many upgrades since the photos were posted online. Second floor balcony extended with glass walls, in addition to glass walls on the rooftop. Amazing views for both second and third floor. Perfect for a family of four. Or Subaru Oatback fit comfortably in the garage in addition to a couple of bikes. The area is very safe and easy walk to restaurants and just steps to the beach.

Great stay, roof deck is the star of the place (and enormous) along with proximity to beach. Parking was tight but reasonably achieved (some mission garages are impossible even w smaller cars). Note that there are two bedrooms each with a bed, and then two couches that fold into beds in the small living room - from the pics I thought there were 4 real beds (but that may have been a me problem in how I interpreted the pics and layout / it worked out). Interior isn’t high end and the living space not huge, but was clean and the price fair / competitive for what it is. In short if you don’t need super luxury interior / furnishings, this place gets you an enormous super luxury roof deck and amazing beach proximity in a clean place and at a price that isn’t super high end for the area - all in all a good deal since that’s likely what you’re coming to the beach for!

The selling point is obviously the 10 seconds walk to the beach. For 12 days, we enjoyed awesome weather and super easy access to Mission Beach. The penthouse is great for a couple, even for hosting local friends for a daytime barbecue. The roof deck is super spacious and has tons of seating for hosting. The place was clean and caught the ocean breeze, even had AC if it ever got too hot. Our pup loved sitting on the living room deck and watching the strandway.
