Perfect Property on Mission Beach

I have stayed at several places in the Mission Beach area over the past 25 years. This location is by far the best value. Mark is a great host checking in to make sure we had everything. The condo was perfect for our family to make memories while in San Diego and the best part is you are just steps from the beach.

Sisters Get Away!

WOW! WOW! WOW! Book this place today. Beautiful Gull's Rest was the perfect spot. Myself and 6 sisters stayed here for a long weekend and it was the best spot There wasn't one complaint. The Condo was exactly as described. OOPS on US! We did rent a large SUV and just as described in the listing it did not fit in the tandem 2 car garage. We stayed in January so we didn't have to much trouble finding street parking. Kitchen was well stocked and clean. Washer and dryer with soap was a nice feature. The location can't be beat. We would definitely stay here again.

Perfect accommodation!

Loved working with the owner, the location is perfectly central to all of Mission Beach activities and the beachfront. The house was well equipped and easy to be in/keep clean. The only slightly funky thing is that the upstairs residents' patio is directly in front of the living room windows. Luckily they did not use it while we were there. All else was great! Thank you!

Perfect spot!!

We absolutely loved our stay at this property! The location was perfect. We walked pretty much everywhere. We have three kids ages 10, 7 and 1 and this house was perfect for all three. Tons of toys for the beach and even toys/games for at the house. The house itself had everything we needed! Towels, silverware, cooking utensils, etc. Fully stocked! We absolutely loved our stay and would definitely book again!!

Great Vacation Spot

This house is exactly as advertised. The location couldn’t be more perfect. The house was clean and well stocked with plenty of supplies. The views are phenomenal. Beware, the garage is very narrow. We were unable to get one of our vehicles in the garage but we were able to find other convenient parking nearby. You can easily hear noise from the upstairs unit but the owners give you resources to help manage that if it becomes excessive. Great stay. We loved it.

2024 Fun

Such a fun way to kick off 2024. Visited San Diego with my family of 5 and my brother’s family of 4. We had two kids 12 and under and three teens 14-16. Plenty of things for all kids to do on the boardwalk, beach, amusement park, and nearby shops. We definitely want to visit again. Can’t beat this location!

Super get a way

The cental location and right on the beach was perfect. You are off the main road so that you hear the waves and not traffic. The kitchen was well equiped and worked well along with the bbq. We eat most of our meals in. We ere surprised at the extensive beach equipment available. This place is really well outfitted. Mark was very attentive. Anytime we had a question he responded quickly. We highly recommend this place. We will be back. Thanks for a great week.

Amazing location

Really enjoyed our long weekend at this property! More than enough beds for all of us and the location/views can't be beat. As other reviews have mentioned, the parking garage is very narrow so make sure to have friends help you back in. Place was clean and the only complaint (very minor) was we could've used more bathroom towels. Otherwise, fully stocked with tommy Bahama chairs and beach towels. Would definitely return. Thanks for an amazing trip!

About the host

Hosted by Tara and Mark

Host profile image
Family built and owned. With our children not wanting to sell the home we have elected to offer it for rent. The home is family managed, which is a benefit to you as a guest because we are available 24/7 should any problems arise (hopefully NOT). Bottom line is we take pride in our rental home as it was once our family home.

Why they chose this property

We choose to build in Mission Beach because of its simple, casual lifestyle and unique beauty. It is freeway close to everything, yet when you get home to the beach, it is as if you are in a different world.

What makes this property unique

Experiencing the exhilarating feeling of opening the balcony door and hearing the ocean waves and smelling the clean salt air.
