A Message from the Owner: We are thankful to be able to provide this lovely Mission Beach home where families from all over the world have stayed, made memories, and filled our guest books with love. Twenty years ago we bought this beach house that our family had rented for many summer vacations starting when our children were babies. We love this house and always called it our beach house; even before we bought it. One summer we arrived to find our beach house was For Sale! It is a dream come true to own this house and we are very thankful for all the fun times it has provided with our friends and family. We look forward to spending many happy years with our children and someday, hopefully, their children in this special place. When we're not at the beach, we live in Scottsdale, Arizona. We have been married for 40 years and have three now grown sons. We love all that San Diego has to offer and never get tired of acting like tourists.

Absolutely no complaints about this property. There was 6 of us, and there was plenty of room for all of us. The house is well stocked with plenty of extra beach towels, towels, and blankets. If you have younger kids, there are gates on the stairs to keep them safe. Close to everything. Highly recommend!

Pros: great communication with hosts, well stocked, great location, good for kids, 2 parking spots, laundry
Cons: could definitely use a deep clean (a LOT of dust under beds and behind furniture, cobwebs on ceiling- more common areas were well cleaned). No AC, but they did have tons of fans (these were also super dusty and probably never cleaned).

Me and my family loved this house you literally need nothing but food and your clothes. Kimberly the property mgr is outstanding and checked how everything was. Nancy. I would like to know where did ypu buy the sweater like blankets. We loved them. They were so warm. We especially liked all the decks. The one outside the living room is great to just sit and have coffee. The main deck was great just to watch the sunset. I definitely would stay here again. Outstanding 5 stars for everything Thank you for sharing your home with us. And thank you Kimberly for everything q

The home fit all our needs and wants, with plenty of room for 6 adults and 3 kids. We never felt like we were on top of each other with the three levels and multable decks and patios. It's in a beautiful locations just steps from the beach and board walk, yet quiet even during Spring break! The home is well appointed and very comfortable. The two parking spots were a plus seeing how parking is an issue. The garage is tight, but we managed. It was wonderful to have a washer and dryer. I might suggest that the laundry detergent be unscented though, as some in our group were sensitive to scent. We had a wonderful time and the property truely does live up to it's 5 star ratings.

The house at Kennebeck Court was the perfect house for our family stay in San Diego. It was ideally located within steps of the ocean and the bay. The owner was very accomodating and the house was in immaculate condition. We would stay there again in a heartbeat.

We stayed five weeks at this property and enjoyed the closeness to the beach. Many of the San Diego attractions are 20 minutes or less in driving time. The house is very comfortable and the host is very responsive to any needs. Well worth it!

I stayed here for my 40th with 8 friends and found this house to be perfect! First I’d say that I originally wanted to stay right in front of the beach but being a very small block away was better as we had more privacy less noise and were still so conveniently close. This house had all all the things necessary to host a large group
In comfort and in style, the top roof terrace was delightful to be on, the large dining room table was perfect to have dinners around, and the location was quite amazing to enjoy a lot of relaxing and fun San Diego activities. The host and the property manager were responsive and easy to talk to.

The house is comfortable and much better equipped than most rentals. It had room for all 10 of us to eat together or use the balcony for the 4 children to eat and the 6 grown ups inside. We very much enjoyed our stay , have lots of pictures to remember, and would rent this house again. Thank you Mrs Whalen for making it so comfortable! Magda Lehovich

A beautiful home in a great location. The best equipped rental we have ever stayed in. Everything was very clean and comfortable. Lots of nooks and crannies to escape to. Walking distance to restaurants, shops, the beach and the bay. Nancy was great - always responded quickly to any emails sent.

My family and I had the most amazing time at this rental. The location was perfect; being steps away from the beach allowed my grandma such easy access to take it all in. The house was everything we could have asked for. Such a great property & location; made everyone feel right at home. So sad it’s over - but can’t wait to be back!!
