Photos and Description of the San Diego vacation condo rental
Condo, 2 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 2 Baths, (Sleeps 4-5)

WOW! is the typical reaction to our views from the windows and balcony. Enjoy the sights, and sound of surf from every room of this 2 bedroom - 2 bath Ocean Front condo on the water. Experience the feeling of seeing the sun-set at the edge of the continent, over the Pacific Ocean. That's why guests leave feeling refreshed, relaxed, and sun-tanned.

Our Sunset Towers condo overlooks the great Pacific high atop Sunset Cliff in Ocean Beach. You're just steps from a favorite surfing and kayaking spot. We're located in a friendly residential community yet you're close enough to walk to the farmers market each Wednesday in Ocean Beach. Experience this Classic California beach town, complete with shops, and plenty of beach access.

Ocean Beach is the closest beach community to Downtown San Diego, it's also close to the Zoo, Seaworld, and other famous attractions. Leave your cares behind, and join us at the beah

Our Welcome Pamphlet in our condo offers all sorts of tips and information about our area, and our building, and your stay. It was written by Steve, a friend of mine, I will share just a little bit of info.

The Point Loma peninsula, which juts out from San Diego and provides some of the most spectacular views in the city, and the ocean. While some travel websites and other non-local guides may lump the two together (calling them both Point Loma), these two neighborhoods are quite distinct, both in geography and in character.

Local OBecians tend not to like being lumped in with Point Loma, though it’s hard to get a typical OB resident too mad about anything. So, if you see the bumper sticker “Ocean Beach: It’s Beside the Point”, you’ll know what it means.

There is no doubt Ocean Beach has a character all its own. The neighborhood is a collection of artists, hippies, rastafari lovers, and other eclectic types. It is a dog-loving area, and you will see pooches here treated like family. OB is weird, and locals like to keep it that way. It is one of the only (if not the only) area in San Diego where a chain store is hard to find.

About Pete Fuentes

Ever since I was a kid I dreamed of a home on the water. Part of the reason is I was raised in the desert where it was hot, desolate, and land-locked. I walked into our condo and the view took my breath away. Now people from the desert, the city and the mountains come to live at the beach for a while. My wife and I decided to invest in this magic place. We love sharing that unique beach experience with dozens of tenants from around the world.

Pete Fuentes purchased this condo in 2005
Why Pete Fuentes chose San Diego

Few homes offer an 'experience' with-in a real estate deal. The vast Pacific Ocean is the reason I bought this home. It is located on the OCEAN! I'm glad to share that 'experience' with others.

What makes this condo unique

I love watching seagulls and pelicans glide past the window as they move gracefully down the coast. The only appointments you'll make are for the Sunsets, or to catch the full moon over the water. The rest is pure bliss.

Best Vacation Stay Ever!!!

5 of 5
Submitted: April 16, 2013 Stayed: March 2013
We stayed at Pete's Condo for our Spring Break this year. The condo looked amazing on the website, but once we saw the place in person it was even better than expected. The view is perfect. We planned on eating more meals out, but after eating on the deck the first night, we decided to order in or pick up food most night so we could leisurely eat dinner on the deck watching the sunset.

The location is perfect. It is 10 minutes from Sea World, 15 minutes from SD Zoo/Balboa Park/La Jolla/Downtown-Gas Lamp Quarter, and 20 minutes from Coronado Beach.

Finally, Pete is awesome. He helped us take our bags to the room, answered a bunch of questions about SD, and even served us tea during the condo orientation. He also had a great book prepared, which listed a lot of information including where to visit, eat, and shop for just about anything.

We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay for our trip. The cost was great too. I would have been willing to spend much more after seeing the place. We plan to stay here on future trips to SD.

Respectfully,
David and Britni Leitman
Owner's Response: What a fun packed week you guys had in San Diego! I'm thrilled to see you had a good stay, I'm always looking to make a difference in your vacation, and you a re right it's the small things that count.

Pete's place in Sunset Cliffs is just perfect to take a "time out" from life! Floor to ceiling windows provide the most awesome views from living/dining/kitchen area as well as the master bedroom. Open them up to hear the sound of waves crashing below. Gaze out to watch surfers, seals, sea otters, and dolphins frolic in the waves, while pelicans fly by in perfect formation.

The friendly beach community of Ocean Beach, or the more stately neighborhoods in Point Loma provide great walk-about options - all the provisions you might need, shops filled with treasures, fun local dining fare - without moving your car.

Pete was the most caring and considerate host and did everything to make our 5-day stay as comfortable and convenient as possible.
Owner's Response: thank you so much, we take great effort to provide the best. We have even updated our tv set to flat screens. new linens, a new sofa, and patio furniture. Warmly, pete

GREAT TRIP

This was a wonderful trip.

We have traveled extensively and NEVER stayed anywhere that we spent so much time looking out the front window at the totally awesome view.

We have reserved a week next December.

The listing description aptly identifies this apartment's extraordinary location--a direct ocean view from both its terrace and the living room's glass wall and door leading onto the terrace, with sights of flying pelicans, gulls, surfers--and wondrous sunsets. The Sunset Cliffs location is easily accessible to so many San Diego sights--walking paths and further sunset extraordinary views within easy walking distance at Sunset Cliffs County Park; nearby groceries; 2 nearby Farmers' Markets (Wednesdays in Ocean Beach; Sundays in nearby Pt. Loma); a 15-minute car ride to the wonders of Balboa Park (15 museums, gardens, walking paths, Old Globe Theater, plus the San Diego Zoo!); and similarly a 15-minute ride to downtown San Diego--Old Town, Copley Symphony, shopping at Horton Plaza, restaurants (several good ones recommendable as well in nearby Point Loma). The apartment and its very helpful and personable owner are a marvel. This rental is truly a treasure! We plan to return.

Owner's Response: It's always great to welcome returning guests like you Joseph! Thanks for coming back to see us this winter. Your 5 week stay was filled with sunshine and warm weather. In fact I've had many folks who come back and spend time like you did, on the balcony enjoying the ocean and the delights of wildlife and cool ocean breezes. Thanks!

i'm not sure what else you could ask for in a rental place! the view and crashing surf, the well-stocked and furnished apartment and the location to breathtaking views, trails and close location to shops and restaurants near ocean beach combine to have you really want for nothing. pete and solveig, the owners, are incredibly accomodating. the place is neat, clean and in a fantastic location. i would not hesitate to recommend this to anyone. i would stay here again in a heartbeat! a fantastic find!!! don't hesitate to stay here!
