Thanksgiving San Diego Style

This was a great property… a perfect size and location to celebrate a Thanksgiving with my son, his fiancé and her immediate family! The kitchen was very well stocked, and the property’s open floor plan made it just right to share a day with family. Easy to take a stroll along the boardwalk another benefit. Would definitely stay here again. 😊👍

One of our favorites!

Beautiful property. Perfect location. Comfortable. Well appointed. Absolutely beautiful. We will be back! One of the things that stood out in my mind, aside from the actual house was the professionalism and quick communication and resolutions of anything we had questions about. This management company is what every property owner would want for their own home.

Perfect house at the perfect location

Property is well managed with modern QR codes, emails, and text messages throughout our stay. Home is recently remodeled with bathrooms on every floor and garage parking. The main living space is the middle floor with plenty of space and a great patio for dining and relaxing. Beds are comfortable, property is clean. The outdoor shower is perfect when you return from the sandy beach. My family and I would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful Beach House!

Beautiful 3-story beach house with modern amenities and furniture in great condition. Super well equipped for anything you could need to cook and be comfortable. Our family of 4 plus grandparents had more than enough indoor and outdoor space. Only steps from the beach and some of our favorite coffee and restaurants, as well as a bike rental spot. Fit our 4Runner in the garage with some careful maneuvering. We will be back!!!

Great for kids, close to the beach & convenient location

We had a great time with both of my children's families, 4 adults & 3 kids. Two minutes walk to the beach & also quiet. House was perfectly equipped for a day at the beach. We walked with little ones to Belmont Park & neighborhood restaurants, and relaxed back at home in very comfortable rooms. A great stay.

Great location- a few buildings away from the ocean, close to attractions, grocery store, and tons of restaurants around. Clean home, and has everything we needed. Love the beach accessories - towels, chairs, toys, surfboards, umbrellas, etc. Thanks for hosting us!

Fantastic property

Wonderful, well maintained property in a terrific location, steps to mission beach and bay. Easily accommodated 3 adults and 4 kids. Beds were comfortable, bathrooms and kitchen modern and well stocked. Outdoor space was an added bonus. The Drift Management company (which rents a number of properties in the area) was very responsive— when the main TV suddenly stopped working, a brand new replacement appeared nearly instantaneously. A less apparent perk was the parking which accommodated a full size SUV parked at a slight angle. Would definitely stay here again!

Fabulous home, location and host!

This is one of the first VRBO homes that actually matched the photos and exceeded our expectations. Loved it! 4 houses from the brach/strand. You get a partial ocean view from the main deck and some windows. Walk to anything you could want: breakfast, coffee, surf board and. Ike rentals across the alley, small market about 3 blocks away. Mission bay a couple of blocks away. Host was always responsive to quick requests from me confirming which rental car would fit in the garage and allowing us to check in a bit early. 10/10

Fun Stay

We enjoyed a great time at this property and most all we found as described on the website. The place was comfortable for our family of 6. The rooms were large with comfortable bedding. The kitchen is fitted with functioning appliances. We thought newly built is a bit of a stretch as you can notice deterioration in the form of carpet staining, blemishes on walls, stains on countertops and oxidizing of water lines. There are 4 bicycles, two of which as extremely rusted and unusable - we had to rent at the place next door. - I wish this had been disclosed before. After 5 years of visiting Mission Beach for the July 4th holiday, we have to say that we saved the best for last.

Home Needs Cleaning, Updating and Love

This home has not been well maintained. Upon first look, the home appears okay, however, the couches, throw pillows and actual bed pillows were filthy. So much so that I purchased couch covers, bath towels, and bed pillows. The bath towels have been washed so many times they are hard, I ordered new towels for our stay as well. The lighting in this house is horrible. Maybe intentionally, so you do not see the issues? The living room has a dining room light and 3 can light on the far side of the room, other than that you have one table lamp. The 2nd-floor patio is very narrow and although there is a table for 8, it is placed against the railing so you really only have a table for 5. The kitchen which is decent does not have 1 full set of dishes, the enamel on the dishes is so worn it looks gray from the fork-to-plate interaction. Wine glasses (there are 3) have been washed so many times they are cloudy. If you are traveling with small children, there is a plethora of children's plasticware. We were there for 12 days so I had the opportunity to wash sheets and pillowcases, which leads me to the pillows....replace them when there are bodily fluids on them, do not just cover up and hope no one notices. Not one toilet seat sits properly on the toilet, small adjustments can be made to correct it. There is mold in the showers. It should be noted that you share an alley with a restaurant/bar. This breads a big fly problem in the summer months. Trash is collected on Tuesdays for homes and Wednesdays for restaurants. The home has a hanging fly trap/strip inside that looks as if it has not been changed in months. It should also be noted that you share an entryway with the home next door and that there is no access to the lower patio without going through the master bedroom. The patio has a waist-high wall in the entryway that has 2 beach cruisers locked together. The bikes appear to be placed there as a deterrent so that it is difficult to access or use the patio unless you go through the master bedroom. The lower level patio has rattan outdoor furniture that is in desperate need of replacing you actually could injure yourself on it. The plastic rattan is battered in many areas and walking too close you will cut yourself. The outdoor cushions have so many bird droppings on them, that we covered them with beach towels. The water hose that is on the outside does not work. The hose was dry rotted and is not for use on the patio as it is part of the drip system that is apparently not working as the palm trees on the patio are overgrown and half dead. This makes me wonder when the last time the patio was thoroughly cleaned and hosed off. It was extremely warm a few days that we were in San Diego, we did use the a/c however the a/c does not reach the 3rd level of the home. There are no a/c vents on the 3rd level so you will have to leave doors/windows open while the a/c is on. Also, the 3rd-floor bunk room needs so much attention. It looks as if the paint has not been updated ever and the mattresses are badly soiled. Lastly, be aware that someone from Vacasa will come by on Wednesday and put the empty trash cans inside the garage. There is no mention that cans need to be inside the garage and no other house has this done, but for some reason this occurred twice while we were there. Although Vacasa was quick to respond to issues and concerns, they are limited in what they are able to resolve as this is the homeowner that would make these decisions, and since we were committed, there was no consideration other than replacing the throw pillows.

A Perfect Beach Getaway

Our stay at the Ultimate Mission Beach Vacation Home was absolutely incredible. This was, without a doubt, one of the cleanest and most well-appointed homes I've ever rented. Every detail was thoughtfully curated, from the Decore, comfortable beds, to the fully equipped and so well-organized kitchen.The location truly can’t be beat - just steps from the sand with easy access to the strand, amazing restaurants, and local attractions. We loved being able to take long walks on the strand, play games in the cozy living area, and cook meals together in the open dining kitchen area.This home made our beach getaway relaxing, fun, and memorable. Highly recommend and would return in a heartbeat!
