About this condo rental

Once on the boardwalk you can walk, fun, skate board, or ride bikes for miles on end along the ocean as well as Mission Bay. If water sports are more your style you are literally just a five minute walk from the ocean water (and even closer to Mission Point Beach at Mariners Cove, bay side) were you can enjoy, surfing, paddle boarding, kayaking, swimming, and even kite sailing or surfing. There are also 8-10 city owned volleyball courts just a short walk away to enjoy one of San Diego's beloved beach sports. If you like the thrills of a roller coaster try Belmont Park for fun, games, and the famous all wood Giant Dipper built in 1925 and recently remodeled. Belmont Park is just up the street at the corner of South Mission Beach Blvd and West Mission Bay Drive. A 10 min bike ride or 20 minute walk on the board walk. World Class amusement park, Sea World is only a 5 minute drive from the condo. Adults and kids alike will love the live animal exhibits and thrill rides. Stay for the fireworks or take a 5 minute walk from the condo to Mission Point Beach and watch them from there. Should you be flying in, the San Diego International Airport is only a 20 minute drive from the condo with Uber or Taxi service readily available. No matter if you want to relax on the beach and read a book, jump in the water and enjoy one of many watersports, or just enjoy the local attractions; you will be glad you chose this Ocean Front Gem as your accommodations and will want to return every year if not multiple times per year!

Lovely property that has a great view of the water. Space has a huge main bedroom, kitchen, dining space and main area. We loved sitting on the patio looking at the water. Upstairs neighbors are quite loud but with a good sound machine, you don’t even notice them while sleeping. Overall great place!

Well, my trip started out by going sideways. I had been planning to meet up with a friend who was going to be in San Diego for work. I was flying in on Wednesday evening to stay with her and then we would go to the condo together Thursday. While I was on my way to the airport, she texted that she had just tested positive for COVID. I decided to go anyway as I needed a break and getaway. But suddenly I didn’t have a place to stay Wednesday night! Joel came to the rescue. After confirming the condo had been cleaned he quickly set up new access and I was all set!
The condo was great! Very clean and decorated with the beach theme seen in the photos. It’s situated right at the very end of Mission Beach Blvd where you can turn left and head to the bay or right and go to the ocean! The condo overlooks the road to the ocean side with a great view across the channel to the dog beach! Of course the sunset views from the balcony were fabulous! Note that due to afternoon sun the balcony can be quite warm late afternoon until sunset. Also note that due to it being so far south, it’s a bit off the beaten path and I would recommend renting a car to get around during your stay as the nearest bus stop is over a mile away.
I hope you stay here and enjoy the easy access to the beaches and Joel’s helpful hospitality!

The host message prior to arrival was very thorough, helpful and a must read prior to arrival.
The unit is spacious and easily accommodated us two, however, you could have four people as long as you don’t mind sharing a shower.
The main bedroom is nicely decorated, has nice sized television, and a wall mounted ac unit. There’s a patio door in this room, but was not disturbed by traffic noise. The mattress in this room is extremely soft.
The en-suite bathroom is nice, clean and nicely furnished with linens.
The main area is well furnished with plenty of comfortable seating. The television is great and the NFL ticket was a pleasant surprise. The outside wall in this space is all windows and a patio door to take in the wonderful water / beach view.
The patio consists of tall chairs and small table big enough for two drinks to sit on and a grill. The road into the beach parking lot passes by the patio, but was not loud nor obnoxious.
The kitchen is updated and nice. The refrigerator was large and a bonus was the ice maker in freezer drawer. That’s all we really used will while staying in the unit
The side entrance to the beach is handy and a short walk to the sand.
The remote control for garage access was nice to have access to. When pulling out of the garage you pull up to door and automatically opens.
There’s a liquor and grocery store just down the street.
We would definitely rent this unit again if ever back in the area.

Condo was very nice with a great patio view of the bay that leads right to the ocean. Enjoyed watching all the sailboats and fishing boats go by everyday. Nice to enjoy wine on the patio in the evenings and relax. Even saw seals swimming a couple of days. Condo was very clean upon arrival and has everything that you would need. From the kitchen, bathrooms, plenty of beach towels and some beach chairs, but they were a little worn and uncomfortable. We bought an inexpensive cooler to bring to the beach. We also drove right down the street to beach parking lot as we had a lot to carry and so much easier. Easy access to the unit and great to have private parking garage as parking anywhere is very hard to find. Grocery store close by. Would recommend taking the Ferry over to Coronado, San Diego Zoo, LaJolla. Down the street from condo a very good carryout, Sara's Mexican food. Waterbar on Pacific beach great views of the ocean and very good food. A 15 minute drive, The Shop Pizza and Wine. Overall, would highly recommend vacationing at this condo.

What a fantastic property all the way around, in truly the perfect location! We really enjoyed watching the boats and people and sunsets from the balcony, and it was just a hop, skip and a jump to the beautiful shores of the Pacific Ocean. Also a great launching pad to go up the coast or get to the airport. Everything inside the was exceptionally clean, well-appointed, and comfortable. Truly one of the best vacations I’ve had, in large part due to such gracious accommodations. Thank you so much for the hospitality!

Condo was clean, decorated nicely and very well equipped. Fun location near the boardwalk and jetty where we could watch boats and dolphins go by. The walk down to the beach was further than we thought it would be. Joel replied to texts fast especially since we were concerned about Hurricane Hilary! We would definitely stay here again!

Amazing place. The owner responded quickly. Only issue was the dryer kept stopping on us but the owner acknowledged the issue and said he would fix it. He was so sweet and allowed us to leave our unopened food and drinks for the next guest. Will stay here again

The condo was exactly as described. My family of four was very comfortable. The condo was extremely clean. Everything we needed or could have needed was provided. The location was literally perfect. We loved our morning walks getting our coffee and exploring the area.My teenage boys enjoyed themselves very much. We felt very safe and confident to allow them to explore the area on their own. Would love to stay again.

This property was perfect for a family of 4. It was very clean and provided all we needed for the week. The location was relaxing and private. We loved sitting on the back deck and watching boats, people and airplanes.

This was our first time doing a VRBO and it didn’t disappoint. We felt so at home during our 4 day stay. I know we will be back and I look forward to staying at this property again.

We were in town for a conference at Mission Marian Conference Center. We chose this location for a quiet place to decompress, take walks and enjoy the beautiful views. We enjoyed the patio view and watching all of the boats coming and going. The boardwalk was a short walk away and the walk to Belmont park was a quick 20 min. We would definitely stay again. The kitchen was well equipped, the bed was very comfortable, linens were cleaned. We appreciated that there were no air fresheners or strong smells used in the condo. Great place!!

Condo was exactly as described, great location and views! Walking distance to the paved path along the beach, perfect for walking to dinner and to Belmont Park. It is also very centrally located to many of the San Diego attractions, about 20 mins drive to everything we wanted to see. Bed was comfortable and we had plenty of towels. Our only issue was the dryer, it would not dry anything completely, even on the recommended timed dry setting. If you need to use it, plan to hang items to finish drying.

Very lovely and well appointed condo. The location on the channel enabled us to enjoy the parade of boats, kayaks, people going by as well as awesome sunsets from the deck. Joel could not have been a more responsive host.

Lovely location overlooking the channel. We were greeted with a beautiful rainbow over the Pacific that we viewed from the balcony on our first day. Joel was very responsive to our questions and requests. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

This condo is an absolute a hidden gem! We booked a last minute statycation and when we walked through the doors we were immediately impressed. The location is fabulous with an unobstructed view of the jetty and a short walk to Belmont Park. We truly enjoyed our stay here and jumped at the opportunity to book our next stay. We literally booked our next staycation at this condo the moment we got home. Joel was also an amazing host. He was incredibly responsive and accommodating and quite possibly one of the nicest people we've encountered on VRBO. If you have an opportunity to stay at this condo consider yourself lucky... it's amazing.

Liked the location, very walkable to beach and boardwalk.
Very nice kitchen and all the needed accessories.
Master bedroom was shown on the website photo to have a futon which we were counting on and didn’t. The dryer shut off every five minutes and the living room air conditioner would not turn on at all.

My husband and I stayed here and we loved it! It’s in a perfect spot to watch boats go in and out of the bay. It was such a relaxing stay. The unit is very comfortable, clean and decorated very nicely. It had all the necessities and was easily accessible. Will stay here any chance we get when we head to SD. Thank you!!

Fantastic place. Joel was amazingly responsive. Environment clean, comfortable, very tastefully decorated. We walked down to the main area (where the amusement/restaurants located) several times very doable. AND the beach was close and not as crowded as other lifeguard locals. Would highly recommend.

Great way to get out of the AZ HEAT!!
Great place to stay with family of 4 adults and 2 little kids for a long weekend. We utilized the Murphy bed, fold out cough in living room and the king bed in the bedroom. Our favorite place was the balcony. The kids loved watching the boats go by. They have 4 chairs and 2 tables on the balcony which made it very convenient. The ocean & bay are close walking distance. If you have little kids and a lot to bring to beach I would go to the bay side beach it’s a lot easier to walk the short distance to the water.
We all loved the way the place was decorated.
