Perfect Getaway

The property was well maintained and has everything you need to cook. Which is a huge bonus that way we didn’t have to eat out every meal.

Beautiful property, great location, a hidden gem

This is such a beautiful property, right on Mission Bay and a short walk to the beach, near Belmont Park. My husband commented on how clean the property is, as well as nicely updated and well maintained. My daughter said the shower is "life-changing," and I have to agree with her. The only other time I've experienced a shower like theirs was in a penthouse suite of a 5 star hotel in Colorado Springs. The kitchen is very well stocked, bas a big area to work in, and everything you would possibly need for your stay. Spices were provided too, I haven't seen more than salt and pepper provided before. Very comfortable seating in the living area and outside. I liked that there were clear instructions printed in different areas, like on the TVs to guide you. Management was quick to respond when we had an issue with the front door lock, it wasn't pulling back in all of the way so we were having trouble getting back into the property. Someone arrived shortly after our initial request and it worked perfectly moving forward, I knew that this is a ground floor property, but I had no idea how loud the people above would be and how much we would hear. You don't hear voices or the tv, but you will hear their footsteps. If someone's up there, you will hear them. We thought it was a toddler running back and forth, loudly dropping something constantly but then my kids said they saw a big dog. That being said, it's a great place and you will enjoy it all. Highly recommend this property!

Great spot for families

This was an excellent location for us. The property was within easy walking distance to a bay (just across the sidewalk next to the gate), a wonderful playground across the street (with a stoplight/crosswalk <1minute away), a rollercoaster across the street, miles of well-lit sidewalk for bicycling/running/walking/people watching, the mission beach boardwalk is just two blocks away, tons of food options- and this is just what’s located within 1-5 minutes of walking. Parking at the property was easy. It was clean and well kept. 2/3 rooms had a bathroom. Only downside was kids having to sneak through rooms at night to use bathrooms because the room with bunk beds did not have a bathroom- but this was a very minor issue as we were all family staying there. Communication was excellent with property management. We had zero issues during our stay. I appreciate that the bay out front was very calm and the foot traffic did not include as many homeless people or drunk people partying as the ocean side of Mission Beach. This is an important consideration because we had a mentally disabled adult and three young children with us. I’d like to bring our family back to this location- it was just great.

Bayside unit

We really enjoyed our stay. Everything was very well maintained and the hosts were very responsive whenever I sent a message. The kitchen was very well stocked and had everything you would need to cook with; pots and pans, dishes and seasonings. The beds were also very comfortable. The Bayside sand is literally right outside your patio gate. If you are there in the summertime, you have a view of the fireworks from SeaWorld on the weekends. The only drawback I would say is that there is a lot of foot traffic and bikes that go past your front patio all day long. But how is that any different than if you were sitting on the beach? It's great for people watching, It really didn't negatively affect our weekend. My grandkids loved being so close to Belmont Park and the beach, there was so much to do. Wood fire pits are not allowed so we purchased a small propane fire pit, which worked perfectly on the patio for our evening s'more's I definitely recommend this unit for your next family getaway.

Great time!

Thank you so much for the stay!! We had such a great time! We stayed for 3 nights and did lots of things around the home. Everything was walkable but the surrounding was quiet so it was best for families!! We especially loved the view. We really enjoyed the bbq with the waterfront view !! Also the stuff was very friendly. I would stay here again! Thank you so much !!

the Best VRBO

When I say this is the best VRBO I have ever stayed at, I mean it. The property is well cared for, very clean and well stocked. Its one of the few that has an outdoor parking spot that can fit a large SUV. We had an Expedition and it fit perfectly! The location is amazing. We walked to everything we needed and could easily sit on the porch and watch the kids play in the sand and water. We literally had the entire bay beach to ourselves. The communication with the property management was great and we had all the check-in instructions well before our arrival so there wasn't any questions. The details were straightforward and easy to understand. The parking spot was well marked too which was a plus. The interior of the place was so clean and comfortable. I will DEFINITELY book this VRBO again in a heartbeat.

Perfect getaway on the Bay

Our unit was cozy and immaculate, with brand new appliances and perfectly stocked with all the tools a cook could ever want. There were more than enough bowls, plates, cups, glasses, utensils and the like. The managers were there on the spot when we needed them. We would definitely stay there again if the opportunity arose.

Beautiful place

The place was very nice with beautiful views. The location was also great, we were literally steps from the beach. They had beach chairs and some beach toys for kids, no umbrella though. The place was clean. The host was very responsive and easy to reach. However we would not stay at this unit again. The issue is that it is a 2 story house and our unit was the bottom one. Unfortunately the family upstairs had 2 small kids that ran all day and it was very loud and annoying. They arrived very late (1:00 am) in the first night and it was so loud that my husband and I woke up. We complained to the host company and they reminded the family upstairs about the “house rules”. They got better, but it was crazy noisy during the day (the kids wouldn’t stop running and jumping starting at 6:00am)). I have 2 kids too, so I understand that sometimes it is hard to control kids, but this was way overboard. One day before our departure , they left. It was 100% better, a little noise from upstairs but doable. So it is basically luck. If we had the last family upstairs during all the time we were there, our stay would have been way more pleasant . But since there is no way to control who stays upstairs, I will not return, although it is a wonderful place.
