Great location but two small things
This location is perfect - a short walk to Del Mar beach and parking! Two small things prevented me from giving it 5 stars. 1. Single ply toilet paper in every bathroom. 2. The garbage disposal/sink smelled bad. Neither is a deal breaker so we would stay there again (and maybe bring our own TP and a lemon for the disposal).

Beach getaway
Overall the condo works well for 2 couples. It needs some work: master bathroom door drags on the floor, front lock does not operate smoothly, ice maker didn’t work, but we appreciated the ice cube trays to make ice. It was disappointing not to have central heat with the foggy cold mornings. But we were told this by the owner. Portable heaters were provided. It was nice to be close to the ocean and many services!

Del Mar Holiday
The size of the condo was perfect for the three of us. Location was great and it was so convenient having an assigned parking spot (although it was very tight). The kitchen was very well equipped with plenty of dishware and cookware.

So close to the beach
I cannot say enough about this great Del Mar condo. Not only was it clean, comfortable and well supplied, but OMG having its own reserved parking spot and just a 5 minute walk to the beach ... put this rental over the top in my book. We will definitely be staying here again. Thanks to the hosts for an amazing weekend getaway.

So close to the beach!
I live in SD but had family in town that love the beach so I thought I would get a place w/ in walking distance from the water to give them the full experience! This place was perfect, we walked to a couple restaurants and icecream, close enough to go to the beach with three teens several times per day. We will stay here again next year when they come, they made our families trip to Cali amazing!

About the host

Hosted by Dan Monaco

Host profile image
We are Cindi and Mark Monaco, we are both originally from San Diego. We currently live in the Palm Springs area and we both work in real estate. We have two kids and five amazing grandkids, who we are head over heels for! We still have family in San Diego and we come down often to visit them and to enjoy our Del Mar Beach Condo. When we aren't using it, the Monaco family owns and manages the condo, the main point of contact for Del Mar is our son Dan Monaco.

Why they chose this property

We are originally San Diego natives. A job transfer moved us to the Palm Springs area 30 years ago. We wanted desperately to have roots in San Diego and so we purchased the beach condo in 1999 to have a place to come back to. Many family vacations have been spent in this condo and now our family, including the grandkids, enjoy this condo with us! We hope you enjoy it as well.

What makes this property unique

When we found the beach condo, we instantly fell in love with the location. It's a half a block from the most gorgeous beach in San Diego and with great restaurants nearby, a bench on the front balcony and an outside shower, you never need to leave! Although if you do, it's a hop away from so many activities that San Diego has to offer, including the Del Mar Fairgrounds just behind the condo. Even though you'll likely want to spend much of the day at the beach, we loved that our condo was spacious, offering everything we needed for a family to stay. The master bedroom is rather large, and with two full bathrooms, a large family area, and a full kitchen, it's the perfect spot to spend a holiday or a long weekend with the family. We fell in love with Del Mar the moment we drove up to this condo, and we've been in love with it ever since. We hope you enjoy the beach just as much as we do!
