About this property

Newly refreshed Beach Apartment..Steps to the sand!



  • Villa Blanca is a beautifully restored six unit vacation rental apartment complex in a safe, tranquil, garden like setting steps to the beach and boardwalk. We refreshed the apartment in November 2025 with new flooring, paint, and lighting. All of the apartments are named after world famous beaches. Our 'Catalina' apartment is bright and sunny with spectacular white water ocean views. You can hear the waves and smell the surf! This spacious one bedroom, second floor, apartment is charming and bright . The large galley kitchen is fully equipped for making a gourmet meal or simply packing a picnic lunch for the beach. The grounds of the building contain a barbecue area and outdoor shower with beach toys and boogie boards. This upscale, family friendly neighborhood is a minute walk from every restaurant cuisine you can imagine, plus shopping, grocery stores, bars and all the boardwalk activities. Freeway access to all San Diego attractions is nearby.


    If you're planning a family reunion, wedding, corporate event or are traveling with multiple friends or family members Villa Blanca is a perfect alternative to a larger house or hotel. The entire vacation complex can accommodate up to 20 adults plus children. The complex consists of two large buildings. Building one has two apartment on the second floor...a one bedroom/one bath and a two bedroom/one bath. The ground floor is the same..both floors have shared porches and ocean views. The second building has two apartments on the second floor with two bedrooms/one bath. Please contact us for further details if you would like to rent multiple apartment or plan an event.
