Great stay. Amazing location.

This was an awesome little spot with easy access to both the bay and the beach just a block away on either side. The host was very communicative and helpful. If you bring a car be sure to plan your parking because mission beach street parking can be competitive but there’s some great public lots a block or two away if you’re okay with a bit of a walk. Overall it was the perfect place to celebrate mine and my partner’s anniversary. So much fun stuff to do within walking distance! Thanks for the great stay!

It was a joy to wake up every morning and take a walk on the beach and or the Board Walk‼️ My husband and I would come back to our rental and make coffee and breakfast and eat it out on the cute little patio, very private. It was the perfect place for a couple to stay!!!

We loved the area amenities and location to the bay and beach. However, the parking was very inconvenient. We had to keep moving our car and got a ticket for parking in a free public parking. Host was great...very responsive with communication.

Girls Weekend

This was the perfect little beach getaway bungalow. Super close to the beach and the bay and lots of restaurants as well. It’s small and quaint but very clean, we felt safe and we didn’t need anything bigger as we were out and about most the trip. We initially couldn’t find parking after we unloaded but realized we could park at the Santa Clara rec center and it worked out perfect.

Great Location. Great deal.

It's a funky little beach bungalow, super comfy and clean. Hard to find a better spot for me, great food, coffee, bars, beach all within 100 yds. You can spend a whole weekend without leaving this little section of Mission beach.

Had a nice stay for 3 nights. Super quick walk to the Bay or Beach. Parked in the lot of off Santa Clara without any problems. Few minor things the cottage could use but wasn’t a big deal. Host communication was awesome! I would definitely stay here again. 💙

Great location & stay

The location was phenomenal. Propert was a cute bungalow on bayside. Value for price was off the charts in my book. Best part of the stay was getting to bond with neighbors who are local to Mission Beach for decades. We will be back again!!

In the heart of Mission Beach!

What a great place to stay! We had a blast in this place. It's small, but fit us perfectly and we had everything we needed. At first parking was a concern, but having arrived on 7/4, it was super busy and we found street parking easy during the rest of our stay. Walking distance to the beach, shopping, dining, and entertainment.

Great location, easy beach access

Really enjoyed our stay here. My husband and I met our college age son in San Diego for a long weekend. Easy walk to the beach, the lagoon, lots of restaurants and funky shops. Parking is a bit challenging but could find an overnight spot down at the lagoon side. Very cozy but comfortable. Very responsive host for questions.

Perfect location in Mission Beach! The neighbors are great to chat with. It's right across from an incredible little local bar. Super easy to uber to any location in the city you would want to go. The house is a perfect size for two people. We loved it.

Not whats listed

This property while okay, is in a horrible location with lots of issues. The inside is dark with not enough lighting, patio is non existant and area is unsafe with unsavory people. Would not recommed this unit. Property management was very helpful in finding us a new location.

Perfect little place for us

The property was just as described & we enjoyed it very much. Location was great, short walk to the beach or the bay. Great food choices within walking distance. Defiantly recommend the coffee shop, Saltwater Culture, not even a 30 second walk from the bungalow. The small outdoor table and chairs were perfect for our breakfast & coffee. For those, like me, who enjoy a cool breeze during the nights, the ceiling in the bedroom works great. The AC unit kept us perfectly cool in the afternoon when it got a bit warm outside. Got to meet one of the neighbors, very friendly and gave some good tips for local exploring. Only recommendations; more coffee pods for the Keurig (for those of us who drink LOTS of coffee LOL) & menus or info for some local favorite coffee shops and food places.

Decent place, no washer/dryer, no parking

Place was decent for the money, but the lack of parking and having to park many blocks away is a huge negative. The security light at the shack across the alley from the bedroom window is defective, so there is a strobe effect all night long that kept us awake. We ended up hanging blankets over the curtains to lessen it. The homeless ruckus in the alley was kept at bay by the neighbor, thankfully, running them and drunkards off throughout the night. Overall, I may stay again if I were there for a beach vacation or whatever, but for me needing sleep and a washer/dryer for working all week, this was not ideal.
