About Alex

Calina is a Native San Diegan, and Bill arrived in San Diego with the Navy in 1975. We married in 1977, and vowed to someday move to the Beach. We loved taking long walks on the bay or beach and watching gorgeous sunsets. We built our dream home in North Mission Beach in 2002 and built the first floor as an apartment for Calina’s parents. We made sure that Mom and Dad’s place had all the same modern conveniences as we had upstairs. When Mom and Dad decided to move further inland, we converted the apartment to a Vacation Rental. 'Mission Bay Hideaway', is the newest, cleanest and nicest apartment in Mission Bay. Since then, we have had the pleasure of hosting hundreds of families, from all over the world, to enjoy wonderful vacations in Mom and Dad’s apartment. Bill & Calina, San Diego, CA

Alex purchased this apartment in 2002
Why Alex chose Mission Bay

Our Mission Bay Hideaway, in North Mission Bay, affords the vacationer all the best of the San Diego Beach and Bay atmosphere. Virtually everything is within a very short walking distance: the beach and bay with every conceivable water sport, marinas, bicycle paths, children’s playground, dozens of excellent restaurants and night clubs, lots of shops, a modern supermarket, internet café, local library, Post Office, Metro Bus Stop, and an amusement park and combination gym, indoor pool and wavehouse recreation facility. Most nights of the year, you can watch the evening fireworks from Sea World, a few miles away. Most other attractions in and around San Diego are just a short drive away.

Excellent

5 of 5
Submitted: January 4, 2010 Stayed: December 2009
When I first came across this rental I was slightly hesitant about owners residing upstairs, you would never even know they were there, but they were available if you had a problem. Gave us an over veiw of where things were, how to operate garbage disposal etc and were gone.

Unit is very clean & neat, close to everything. The photos in listing are very accurate, no suprises. What you see in photos is what you get.

Only downside is parking is very tight, my husband decided to upgrade his car rental to a Lincoln town car...very tight to park, so if you can make do with a full size car like the size of an Impala or smaller you will be fine.
.
After long days of sight seeing it was a pleasure to come back here, grill some dinner, throw some clothes in the washer & sit outside & relax with a glass of wine. Oh that was a huge plus not to come home with a suitcase full of dirty clothes.

This unit is excellent and I would not hesitate to recommend to family & friends. I would not hesitate to rent again on my next visit.

Owner's Response: We loved having Rich & Kate stay at our Mission Bay Hideaway and hope that they hurry back really soon. Bill especially enjoyed reminiscing with Rich about their days in the Navy - both had been on aircraft carriers deployed to Vietnam in the late 60's.
As for the parking - everyone in the beach areas in San Diego vie for each inch of parking space. The space on the side of our house for the rental is actually quite roomy when our neighbor remembers not to crowd us with his large van. This will automatically improve in the very near future since he's in the process of selling the van and moving back east. We also have an arrangement with our neighbor, Hank, 2 doors down, on the corner lot, to swap parking spaces with our tenants, and let them use his large parking space when they have a large vehicle that needs extra room.

Our family of 4 just returned from this rental, and we highly recommend it! Everything is just as promised, the rental is in perfect shape, super clean and has everything a family with kids could need. We arrived very very late at night, and Bill made sure that a bed rail was already installed on one of the twins beds, for our little one. I really love that the second bedroom had two twin beds, as my kids sleep so much better if they each have their own bed.

We all slept great, it was fantastic to have two bathrooms and a washing machine & dryer. The location is perfect for accessing all that San Diego has to offer, but I'd also encourage you to take the time to enjoy the immediate area (Mission Beach). This rental is around 60 feet to the peaceful bay side, and less than 2 blocks to the ocean.

It is so handy to have a parking spot. Sure, it is small, but that is the nature of the neighborhood. I had rented a small car but ended up with a minivan, and it still fit perfectly fine.

You won't regret renting this unit, and Bill was fantastic to work with. We will definitely return!
Owner's Response: We enjoyed hosting Dawn and her family and look forward to their next visit. We're glad the late arrival worked out as well as it did.

We consider the arrival time crucial to our tenant's stay. If the guests have special needs, like a crib, high chair, car seat, bed side rail, etc., or just need last minute directions or instructions on how best to park, we like to make these things available at a moment's notice.
We know that most tenants come to Mission Beach to enjoy the water and the local attractions, like Sea World, the Zoo, Belmont Park, and nearby theme parks like Legoland and the Wild Animal Park; however, we also know that providing things like bikes, chairs, 2 man kayak, and beach toys for the kids, make the stay a little more enjoyable.

Over the years, our guests have told us the things that are most important to them, and we've done our best to provide them.

Beautiful spot in Mission Beach

Our family (kids 2 and 6) had a great week at the Hideaway. Location is as promised, about 100 feet from the bay side beach, and maybe three times as far to the ocean/boardwalk. Everything was clean, neat, new, and in perfect shape. The place is bigger than it looks in the pictures. Owners were extremely friendly, discreet, and attentive.

Pros:
1. incredible location, walking to beach/bay/Belmont Park/PB
2. Great "staging" location for local Seaworld/Zoo/Coronado trip
3. Bikes on site! Lots of fun on the boardwalk
4. Nice local cafes for AM/lunch/coffee
5. Stroller, bed rails, high chair, kids bike, puzzles all provided, very kid-friendly setup!
6. neighborhood is quiet at night

Cons:
1. As noted, keep the rental car small (escape sized suv was ok, anything bigger would have been a problem)

not a lot of cons. we'd go back in a heartbeat. Wonderful place to soak up the San Diego vibe for a week.

fantastic place!

5 of 5
Submitted: March 7, 2013 Stayed: February 2013
This was a wonderful place to stay. It was very clean. The kitchen and living room were the right size for 4 people. Everything was lovely. The beds were very comfy and the kids slept well. The bay is one block to the right and the ocean/beach is 3 blocks to the left. It was a few houses from a road but you can't hear any noise from inside. Each morning we would make breakfast, walk along the beach or boardwalk to the grocery store and startbucks (about a 10-15min walk) to get groceries. the parking spot might be tight if you have a large vehicle but we parked a mid-size car there each night with ease. The wifi came in clear.There is in-house laundry so we could pack light and the towels provided were excellent. The location to sea world, main interstates, Belmont Park, grocery, and beach were fantastic!

Owner's Response: We were privileged to have hosted Brad & Jilian and their two kids and we appreciate their kind comments. We take great pride in providing as many amenities as possible to make our visitors' stay as comfortable as possible, and our closeness to Mission Bay, Mission Beach, the super market, shops and restaurants makes this a lot easier. Parking is tight for everyone in the beach area, and having a mid-size car makes parking a little easier; however, we've accommodated large vans and SUV's in the past - it just takes a little practice backing into the spot on the side of our home from our alleyway.
We always appreciate helpful suggestions, and shortly, we'll be providing a couple of new items to our kitchen repertoire - the cookie sheet and bigger oven mitts, that were requested by Jilian.
We look forward to Brad & Jilian's return in the not-too-distant future.

Mission Bay Hideaway

Submitted: April 12, 2012 Stayed: April 2012
Never been to San Diego before and liked how centrally located we were. Everything we did was only 10-15 minute car ride. The beaches are much closer than I realized. Mission Bay is seconds away while the Pacific Ocean is only a few minutes. The furnishings were comfortable--the beds and pillows especially. Parking is premium and nice to have a spot. We have no reservations about recommending this place to anyone.
Owner's Response: We thank Mike for his kind comments about our Mission Bay Hideaway. He highlights some of the things in which we take great pride and are pleased to provide to our guests.

Over the years, we have been fortunate to meet some wonderful families from all over the world, and several have returned year after year.

We look forward to Mike and his family returning soon as well.
