Charming Mission Beach Retreat!

Welcome to Charming Mission Bay Retreat! This unit is situated on the back side of a duplex property right on Mission Bay boardwalk. About 30 steps to the sand of Mission Bay and the Boardwalk! The pacific ocean is less than 2 blocks away as well!

This condo unit, located on the backside of the duplex, has two levels. The first level, just a short staircase up from the front entry, features an open floor plan living room, dining room, and kitchen with bar seating—a great space to share!

Walk upstairs to the master bedroom suite, featuring a king size bed, private balcony, and bath, plus a twin size floor mattress. Some features that make this unit stand out from others in the area include dual pane windows for a quiet and cozy stay. This home fits 2 cars tandem in the garage and its beach amenities include beach towels, beach chairs, and boogie boards.

Guests will have access to the entire unit and it's available amenities.

None, unless of course there is a problem, question, request or complaint.

Great place right on Mission Bay.

We had a great time at this place. Spacious and beds were very comfortable. Kitchen had everything we needed. The Bay was right outside our door. There was A/C throughout and small portable one in the upstairs master bedroom. Games and beach stuff (chairs, towels, body boards) were a plus.

Mission beach condo

Overall very good. Missing was any view. The other 1/2 of the property had terrific views of the Bay, We had almost zero. Cindy extremely responsive to our needs, or any problems that developed. Really no problems, more questions. Location excellent. Steps to the Bay and sand. About 600' to the ocean. Multi-use promenades both bay and ocean. Too many electric scooters, going too fast. But, loely walks both ocean and bay.

Great Condo, Terrific Location steps from Mission Bay and Ocean

We had a great long weekend in San Diego. The condo was even better than we expected. The pictures don't do it justice. We also loved this location. Mission Bay was just steps away. The ocean was 1 block in the other direction. We were also 1.5 blocks from Belmont Park and Mission Blvd. We had a little trouble reserving our dates at first, but Cindy was great to work with. She was very helpful throughout our stay.

Great Mission Bay Rental

Home was very comfortable with all the amenities needed for a great vacation. The location is on the Bay side but within a short walk to the ocean. There are restaurants, grocery stores very near by. For adventure seekers you can rent paddle boards, bikes, sail boats and almost anything you need to enjoy the water. The Sea World Fireworks are visible from the boardwalk outside the unit. The description doesn't say there is a washer and dryer but the unit is equipped with a W/D for your convenience.
