BAYFRONT! APRIL- MAY 22 ONLY $250/NT! LOCATION! VIEWS! WALK TO EVERYTHING!

Steps to the Beach and Bay. It was perfect for us. Well stocked with All that you would need. Its just like being at Home. The views were Awesome and Kelly was Great. We will be back for sure!!

The North Unit has a lot going for it, but there were several features we wish we’d known about before renting. First, the positives:

1. The unit was extremely clean, comfortable, spacious, and reasonably well updated. Beds and bedding are great.

2. Both the owner and the property manager were extremely responsive and helpful during our stay.

3. The location is nice with beautiful bay front views. Belmont Park is only a few blocks away, and it was one of the unexpected highlights of the stay for our kids.

And the negatives:

4. Washing clothes was frustrating and unpleasant. First, the laundry is a dirty room in the car park with standing water on the floor. While we don’t need fancy facilities, clean is pretty important to us. Second, no detergent is provided, so we had to buy our own. Third, the washer broke during our second load, leaving us with a machine full of soapy clothes unable to drain or rinse. The property manager contacted someone on-site to fix the problem, but we wound up rinsing our clothes by hand in the utility sink (which also was dirty and backed up) because it took him so long. Appears to be a regular problem. Not the end of the world, but certainly not the way we wanted to spend a long afternoon on vacation and not the quality level expected at this price point.

5. The unit has been nicely updated with one notable exception -- the master bathroom. The lighting is poor, and it's disconcerting to stand in the shower and see daylight and feel a breeze through the ceiling fan. It was cold and drafty every morning with no way of warming the area up. Once again, we weren’t expecting luxurious, but this was closer to a public shower at a campsite than a private residence.

6. Accessing the house and parking was more challenging than expected. First, the one-way alleyway to the car port requires a u-turn every time unless you’re coming from the east. Second, parking is unsurprisingly tight, but it’s made far more difficult by the building resident in the adjacent parking spot. They park ten feet back from the front of the spot, making it impossible to start turning the wheel until you’re practically up against a wall. I've driven in urban areas a lot denser than Mission Beach, but by the end of our stay I began to dread leaving and returning to the unit.

Overall, the unit has a lot of positives, but the problems were pretty aggravating. Maybe knowing them before going in would make it easier to accept.

We stayed for three nights and greatly enjoyed our stay. There are beautiful views of the bay. The location was nice, as I was able to jog around the bay in the morning and then walk across the street to the park to exercise and stretch. We parked our car in the driveway and didn't have to use it our entire stay. Mission Beach is a two minute walk, and Pacific Beach is about a 30 minute walk if you feel in the mood to explore. Kelly was great and even allowed us to check in early. The condo was clean and provided beach towels, mats, and frisbees. Took one star off only for the fact that it is a bit outdated and could use some upgrades. Also the walls are a bit thin and could hear neighbors entering their units.

The Condo was very clean, albeit a bit dated bathrooms and kitchen. Right on Sail Bay near the Boardwalk. Lots of summer traffic but unit very quiet and great for our needs. Kitchen has basic needs covered, but no spices, oil, etc ( basic pantry needs) so be prepared to shop for everything! Master room has a very comfortable King bed, and 2nd bedroom 2 twins. Additional beds are rollaways and comfortable, but crowded in living room and early risers have to be quiet so to not wake up guests sleeping in living room. Unit great for a family with young kids, but a bit crowded for 5 adults! Very comfortable recliner couches in sitting area!

Pacific Beach area and better restaurants, brew pubs etc about a mile away and requires driving. Parking for one sedan size car, but street parking very difficult to find! Lots of sand toys and small boogie boards. a few beach chairs too! The Ocean a short walk away and the bay out the back door of condo building!

Property manger and owner very responsive and even purchased a crock pot for the unit for our stay! I appreciated the owners willingness to be flexible with booking dates as we needed a Wed-Wed rental and everything else was Fri/Sat-Fri/Sat rentals! I would stay again if I needed a rental in this area!

We love the condo and location. Right on the beach and with a lots of kids.

Condo is spacious and clean. Full stocked and well organized.

We have rented from this owner in the past as well.

Will plan to rent again.
