Family Trip

Overall great trip. The property is as advertised but the photos of the roof top deck do not do it justice. Simply spectacular 360 degree views. It was my favorite part of the property.

Great location and house!

Prime home base for beach and bay weekend

We needed a place in this area with parking as we were hosting wedding celebration activities at both the beach and the bay. That it was a nice place with a 360 view on the rooftop deck was a great bonus! I was able to squeeze my full size minivan inside the garage or safely in the driveway (both at angles). The driveway is steep but manageable. Very convenient having the San Rafael stop sign and crosswalk close for back and forth to the beach. Traffic noise from Mission Blvd was the only drawback. Bay view from kitchen, dining room, and deck absolutely fantastic! Both residences between the home and the bay are single story, giving clear sight lines. All amenities as advertised. Sauna worked great, as did the gas fire pit on the roof. There are more stairs than expected that can be difficult for the mobility challenged. Felt very welcomed and taken care of. Julie was a great on-site host. I was curious about a last minute early check-in and she made it happen within 30 minutes of my request! Thank you for providing me a fun and convenient way to be close to all the wedding festivities!

Central location, good parking

Nice central location, about half way between the Pier and Belmont Park, close to Bay, and very quick walk to beach. Easy to walk to many places for food. Great view of Bay from rooftop deck with a "peek" of the beach. The garage was great, and there is even a driveway (although very sloped) for another car (regular car or mid size SUV - a long truck would not fit). We have a Toyota Rav 4, and it was no problem fitting in the garage. We had friends with a similar size SUV that stopped by, and it fit in the driveway. Be advised, there are MANY steps in this house, and they are fairly steep. Steps up to the house, to the master bedroom, to the living area, to the kitchen, to the rooftop deck. Pretty much everywhere you go. Not a problem for us, just wanted to make others aware that if you have trouble with steps, or have small kids, it could be a problem for you. There is a large dumb waiter in the garage that goes up to just inside the front door. This was a nice surprise and was awesome for getting luggage from the car to the house. The house is older, as most are in the area, but is decorated nicely. Master bed/bath have plenty of storage, with many drawers in both. There were even hooks in the bathroom and in the closet to hang clothes and towels, and some hangers in the closet too. These details may not be a huge thing to most people, but I find this to be a huge plus. I hate staying somewhere where I cannot unpack all my things. The master shower was great (although a bit dark with only one light in the bathroom near the sink), and my husband loved the sauna. Like every place in the Mission Beach area, there is much street noise with the windows open. This is not a negative about the house, as it is like this pretty much everywhere, just pointing out that if you open the windows at night, you will hear the traffic, sirens, etc. And even though it was only around 70 degrees during the day, the bedrooms did get stuffy at night. There are fans available though, which help. The master bed was not the most comfortable, but daughter said the guest bed was comfy. The kitchen came with a hodge podge of items for cooking simple meals. Garbage bags, dish soap, hand soap, dishwasher tabs, laundry detergent and dryer sheets available. The refrigerator ice and water dispenser do not work, so you will have to buy ice (but there were a few ice trays). There is a filtered water dispenser at the kitchen sink, and a Brita pitcher in the refrigerator.

Home away from home

It had a cool layout, everything worked and the views were awesome from the roof deck, I actually live in San Diego but spending 3 nights at a nice house right on the beach was a blast. The garage was a plus but the door could use maintenance. Other than that everyone really enjoyed the house and plenty of supplies, with cool surrounding areas. Boating, Nightlife, Views and Tanning. Double Thumbs up👍👍 Recommend!

Everything We Wanted in a Rental!

We are a local family with two older teens, 17 and 19, in search of a place for a staycation while still having to still work and go to school remotely. This place did not disappoint! Since we are familiar with Mission Beach, we knew what area we wanted to stay. The location is close to all: Mission Bay, the beach, and places to eat and/or window shop along Mission Boulevard. It's also a nice walk along the boardwalk on your way to Belmont Park to the south or Crystal Pier to the north. Lori, the host, was welcoming and prompt with her communication, check-in was a breeze, and the place was clean, sunny, and well-organized. The Wi-Fi worked well for the three of us that weren't lucky enough to take the entire three days off. There is also plenty of parking for two cars comfortably and three if you have smaller cars, just having one spot is premium in Mission Beach. Lastly, if your searching for an active vacation, you have opportunities to rent bikes, surfboards, and paddleboards without having to get into your car or bring the gear yourself. I hope you enjoy your stay as much as we did!

great place for a restful Christmas getaway

We really enjoyed our holiday in Mission Beach. The area was great and the property managers were very nice to work with. The rooftop patio was great for views of both the bay and the ocean-lovely sunsets! We did have a few unexpected issues with some ceiling leaks due to an unusual amount of rain; however, the property managers were quick to respond and the property owners were incredibly nice to give us a night's refund for our troubles. We love San Diego and would definitely stay here again. We were able to go to the museums, zoo, Torrey Pines, and visited family in the wine country that was only an hour away. We got to walk around the bay and oceanfront boardwalk each morning and even the storms that came weren't bad because we got to play games and hang out in the house. We also found the Amplified Ale Works which we highly enjoyed. One family member has Celiac disease and they were able to provide delicious gluten free food for her. We went twice in the week! Balboa Park was fun to visit and the restaurant Prado was really good! It's one of our favorite restaurants in San Diego!

Good top paradise

Property exactly as pictured. Roomy, airy, wide open spaces. The roof top patio and gas fire pit under the stars fantastic for morning coffee or evening cocktails. Only concern was the front door lock but we were told that was to be corrected.. Word to the wise though......don't drive a big car......parking very tight. Would not hesitate to book here again......management immediately responsive.

Great House, access to everything at Mission Beach, will rent again

Our fist time to Mission Beach, this house is very nice. It is old, but well maintained. Full kitchen. A master and a Bedroom. There is a pull out couch as well as a bed mat in the master closet. 2 full baths and a powder room on main floor. 4 was very comfortable. 1 block to the bay, 2 blocks to the pacific, what more could you ask. Roof top deck is really cool as well. Parking is crazy in Mission Beach, so having the garage is a bonus. Note if you rent a Tahoe or a large pickup, may not fit in the garage or in the exposed driveway. We rented a small SUV, was perfect. The beach was not busy, but it was January. The closer to the pier you get the busyier it gets. The ocean view was perfect, decent waves for body boarding/surfing. We went in January, the only issue we had was the guest bedroom doesn't get much heat from the furnace, but an extra blanket on the bed was all that was needed. We will be back, renting this same place.

Nice beach vibe with an amazing rooftop deck view

The house has a nice beach vibe. It’s perfect for the area it’s in, which is best seen from the rooftop deck. From the rooftop you can see the bay as well as the ocean, and it’s definitely my favorite part. The bay and the ocean are a very short walk away, and there are plenty of things to do in the area within walking distance. I definitely recommend this place!

This place is a real GEM!

My family loved it! It is so spacious and even has a sauna and rooftop deck. There are beach toys and we were close to everything. We barely left the beach, but when we did, it was great to get to pull into a garage! This place is perfect!!

About the host

Hosted by Lori Georgeson

Host profile image
My husband and I love to welcome guests to a memory-making beach experience in our beautiful vacation home.
We believe that Mission Bay is a little piece of paradise. We enjoy the beautiful ocean, quiet bay, and magical environment.

In addition to loving the beach, we enjoy travel, hiking, and exploring new destinations. My husband is a Boeing physicist who focuses on keeping Boeing airplanes safe through effective inspection and repair methods.

We have three grown children who encouraged us to try VRBO/HomeAway for both hosting in our home and as guests while we travel.

We look forward to providing the best customer service and building our profile. We welcome your reviews and feedback!

Why they chose this property

This property is a dream come true for us. We have visited Mission Beach many times throughout our lives and we always dreamed of owning a home in this paradise city. We bought this dream home in 2018 after viewing many exceptional properties. There is something about this home that is truly magical. It has everything you could dream of in a home steps from the beach and the bay. Views, a sunny interior, comfort, easy (lots of parking!) and access to so many things that we love (and we hope you with enjoy too!). Walking paths for miles, sandy beaches for sport and relaxation, biking, water sports, boating, access to amusement parks, city life, night on and on. It is our hope that you will experience the magic of Mission Beach, as we have, while staying in our home. We welcome you!

What makes this property unique

The rooftop deck on this home is truly magnificent, with panoramic views of both the ocean and the bay. The deck has plenty of seating for dining and relaxing. In addition to this unique deck, there is a cozy, fully enclosed patio at the front of the home that is perfect for relaxing in the sun or connecting with friends and family. Views of the beach and the bay are ample throughout the home, and the bright, airy interior is the perfect setting for a beach get away. If you are remote worker, we have high speed internet and a dedicated work space with a view of the bay. It's hard to find a better place to work while on vacation! And finally, the dry sauna, which seats 4, is a great way to relax after a day at the beach. This home has so many unique and wonderful features. It's the perfect beach get away. Come and enjoy!
