This was our second stay in Mission Beach - and the host and property were nice. We had a few problems with the property, but the hosts were great - and immediately resolved them. Very close to the beach and boardwalk. Nice rooftop deck area to sit and enjoy the views. We didn't realize how loud it is in this particular area. We stayed in a different area before that was very quiet. This unit would be great for those looking for more nightlife and access to shopping, entertainment, etc. Very loud at night with obnoxious, revving motorcycles for hours.

You really can’t beat the location. It’s just steps from the beach. The place itself was clean, spacious, and fully prepared for our stay. The property manager was easy to reach and even checked in with us before arrival, which we appreciated.That said, I do think the listing and photos give the impression that this is more of a standalone condo like many of the other properties on the street. In reality, it appears the building was subdivided into multiple units and feels more like an apartment complex.Our biggest issue was the lack of clarity around parking. The listing should clearly state that while a garage is provided, it’s only suitable for very small vehicles like a Mini Cooper or Chevy Spark. We were traveling in a minivan, which absolutely did not fit. Trying to make it work turned into a frustrating situation and added about 45 minutes to our trip while we searched for alternative parking. We ultimately had to park about a mile away.Traveling with three kids to this specific listing made the situation especially inconvenient and definitely took away from the overall experience.

The garage is REALLY small. My son has a 2004 solara and it literally doesn't fit no matter how good of a driver you are (mirrors don't fold in) so he couldn't park in the garage. Other than that it was SUPER convenient and great for what it was.

My family just returned from our trip to San Diego where we stayed at this rental property. Just for context, it was my husband, myself, our three kids (ages 10, 12, and 14), and my mom who stayed at this property. Also for context, we have been staying at rental properties in the San Diego area all my life, so we are familiar with the areas and have a lot of experience with rentals.This property has a mix of 10/10 reviews and 4/10 reviews. We were specifically looking for a rental with a roof top deck so that we could watch the 4th of July Fireworks in the area. The photos, listing description and a review of the reviews made it seem like this unit would be great for our purposes. After our stay, I’d say that this rental is definitely closer to a 4/10 unless you are only looking at location. The listing really does not adequately convey what you are getting (or not getting) with this rental unit.First, let’s talk about the parking. The listing shows two outside parking spaces. Some garages were off to the side in the photo, but the focus was the outside parking, giving the impression that outside parking is part of this unit. The parking that comes with this unit is the world’s smallest garage that is off of the world smallest alley, making it impossible for you to park anything larger than a small sedan. There are also large cabinets in the garage, so that if your car were to fit you might not be able to park in it due to the cabinets. We were unable to park in
