Experience Ocean Views from two identical connected Mission Beach townhouses rented together to create the perfect spot for your family gathering or group get-togethers. This unique property includes 6 private balconies and a huge front deck for entertaining. There is ample parking for 6 vehicles. This home also has high speed Wi-Fi throughout the home with complimentary Netflix and premium cable.
You can't beat the location! The property is steps away from the ocean and boardwalk, across the street from quiet Mission Bay and just a few blocks from the dining and shopping district of Pacific Beach.
We supply tons of sand toys, beach chairs, boogie boards, soft top surf boards, beach towels, umbrellas, everything you and your family/friends will need to experience living by the beach. We even include several bikes.
The two townhomes are connected on the second floor kitchen level via two lockable doors in each dining room and via a common front patio with a relaxing sitting-down view of the ocean, surf, sand and boardwalk. This unique configuration is perfect for many vacationers. It works great for multiple families who want to vacation together, but may want some privacy as well. It is also appealing to groups with children as one side of the home could be the 'kid zone' with kid shows, toys, nap areas; and the other side could be the 'adult area' with adult beverages and visiting past 'bedtime' without toys scattered about!
The connected townhomes are each three levels, 2,300 square feet total.There are two living rooms, two full sized kitchens and two dining rooms. Each townhome also has its own washer and dryer, and its own garage. Listen to the waves from one of the 6 bedrooms, or check the surf from one of the 6 private balconies off of each bedroom. The property has vaulted, spacious ceilings and several common areas to allow your group to spread out.
The town-homes are fully furnished. There are a total of four flat screen high definition Smart TVs, complimentary Netflix and two full-sized sectional sofas.
The home sleeps 18-22. With 18 in beds - there are 2 California King Beds, 4 Queen Beds, 2 lower Full size bunk beds and 2 single twin bunk beds. Plus there is sleeping for 2 in each of the 2 living room queen size sleeper sofas.
Please note the home does not have air conditioning, but several fans are provided and the ocean breeze keeps the home cool.
Please be careful of scams on Craigslist and note that we do not list our property on Craigslist.

After living in Pacific Beach for 15 years and enjoying everything San Diego has to offer, we wanted to deliver this experience to vacationers. We are long-term San Diego residents, and this is a family-run vacation rental business.
Ciara & Barry purchased this townhome in 2013
Scouring through hundreds of properties, we finally found the perfect spot. After planning several vacations ourselves we loved the location and flexibility of this home. It is perfect for family gatherings or special get togethers. This home provides 6 parking spaces, virtually unheard of! And it's walkable to everything you need.
Enjoying the people-watching on the beach, riding bikes along the boardwalk, surfing or swimming in the ocean just steps away.
5 of 5 stars
We had such a wondeful time at Whiting Manor. We had a large group, rangng from toddlers to seniors, and there was enough space for all; we even hosted a Christmas dinner, and there was enough cooking equipment to do that! The hosts of this house have everything, from sand toys to surf boards to 6 car parking capacity to plastic cups for toddlers. The home is lovely, but clearly meant to be lived in, i.e. no precious breakables, no white carpet, nothing that either small children or clumsy adults can break. Location is perfect, near the beach, near restaurants, near grocery stores, and yet so quiet at night, you can hear the waves. We loved it, and are already trying to figure out when we will return.
This was an amazing trip. Sunny San Diego is our favorite place to vacation. And Mission and Pacific Beaches highlight everything we love about it. This rental unit was ideal for our large group (11 adults). Every morning we walked to breakfast, then set up camp on the beach ( which is just steps away), then walked to lunch, dinner, and then to a bar. This unit is very versatile and could accommodate a single family or multiple families vacationing together. Ciara (owner) was always prompt with a polite reply to any questions I had about our stay. There’s no way you would vacation here and not have a blast. Just bring your sunscreen!
Our families thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Whiting Manor. It's a great location for walking and the beach. We needed to be a bit creative to fit as many people as possible into the particular bedroom configuration, but we had as many as 15 sleeping there at once. The facilities were well stocked. Bikes and boards were a welcome surprise.
Nice place close to the boardwalk. Filled both sides with family which made it really nice to enjoy everyone company. Not many places can handle 24 people and still have room for everyone.
Overall experience was great. We filled the 2 adjoining cottages to the brim with 24 staying there for a family reunion. Loved the double living rooms, double kitchens. One side seemed to be the active side where family gathered to chat, the other side became the quieter side if you wanted to relax. We spent most of our time at the beach or other activities. Parking was sufficient and we found parking nearby for a rather large van. Cottages were well stocked with beach toys, bikes, linens and we used them all. For us it was the perfect place. One couple did have to sleep on the sofa hide a bed in one of the living rooms. With 6 bedrooms and 7 couples plus children, we had to be creative but made it work. It did indeed sleep 24. We even brought a Christmas tree and put it up on the main deck. Festive and fun. Thank you for a wonderful experience. Suzanne Brooking
We looked at lots of locations to find something that was near the beach and could accommodate a LARGE group. We filled every inch of these two townhouses with 10 adults and 13 grand-children, but it was wonderful. When we weren't visiting the USS Midway or Downtown San Diego, the grandchildren were at the beach until the sun went down. We had a bed for everyone (some of the "littles" doubled up) and we cooked dinner every night but one. Both kitchens had plenty of pans, dishes, silverware, bowls--everything that we needed. The grown-ups went to dinner one night at an excellent restaurant that was in walking distance, so we felt safe leaving the older kids in charge. This property is exactly as it is represented and has lots of extras (bikes, boogie boards and parking). We had a few questions which Ciara quickly answered by phone--I might be the only person left who doesn't text! Great place and we highly recommend it.
Our extended family of 12 rented both of Ciara's places for a long weekend to celebrate my father-in-laws 80th birthday. We had plenty of space for the 6 kids and 6 adults. Perfect location right next to the beach - walking distance to restaurants, coffee and the grocery store. We took full advantage of the bikes to do errands and the toys for the kids.
Ciara was amazing all throughout the reservation process as well as during and after, even helping us to locate some items left-behind after we thought we had searched the house before we checked out.
Our only regret is that we didn't have at least one or 2 days to just chill at the house and the beach! We would come back in a heartbeat if we decide to do San Diego again and would recommend the houses to anyone looking for a place near the beach.

Mission Beach is a lively and fun beach town with nearly two miles of oceanfront boardwalk. It is a popular beach spot for 20-somethings since there are plenty of bars in Mission Beach and in Pacific Beach. It is also a very family friendly area with activities such as biking, beach volleyball, boogie boarding, surfing, sport fishing and scuba diving.
This is a great location with so many fun activities to offer for anyone. Close to:
