This is a really great property - good space for a larger group. It's clean and updated and really easy access to the beach and the bay, which is nice. I've stayed at several properties in this area and this one is by far my favorite.
This property was PERFECT for our stay in San Diego. Great location & amazing accommodations that checked all the boxes for us. Would highly recommend & if we head back to the SD area, we will book again in a heartbeat!

Amazing home!
Amazing home! The location is beautiful and the house was very clean
Great place to stay! Just as described in listing and photos. Notes for those considering: Kitchen was very well stocked with all you need to cook large meals. It does not have A/C (which we knew) but each room has very nice fans. It was a heat wave while we were there so a few members of the party were still a bit too warm. It is densely packed area so expect to hear neighbors. The morning sun shines directly into the living room/dinning area (at least in mid-March while we were there). The elevator and 2 entry level bedrooms were great for those who had limited mobility in our party. It is on street dead end w/parking spots so we were able to get close additional parking easily.

Exceeded Expectations
I really appreciate their responsiveness. The apartment itself was also super clean and comfortable. Love the location as well! Overall the location is great and the apartment is amazing.
We really enjoyed our time in this apartment. It was clean, spacious, and very well located next to the bay and close to the beach. The property manager had excellent communications and responded quickly when we had some issues with the dishwasher and refrigerator. We would love to come back in the future.
The 5 bedrooms and 4 baths fit our family perfectly.
Thank god for the elevator!
The house is very conveniently located for walking.
We thoroughly enjoyed it.
Stayed here with a group of 8 people. We all really enjoyed our stay! The unit was equipped with everything you would need in a real condo/apartment: all kinds of cookware, plates, detergent, towels, fun shot glasses etc etc. Every room had a ceiling fan and box fan, extra blankets, hotel style folded towels in the bathrooms. Overall it had the feel of a luxury hotel inside a condo on the beach. Very nice!
We had 4 siblings and spouses stay so it was great to have three bedrooms with their own bathrooms. The condo is very well supplied and had everything we needed. The downside was that it would've been nice to know ahead of time how tight the parking is. The only other comment is that there was no heat source in the living area and the mornings were a little chilly.

Spectacular Stay
This condo rental did not disappoint! My family and I really appreciated the wonderful space to relax and have fun. Clean as a whistle! Every imaginable kitchen utensil, appliance and cookware was available. Nothing left to desire. The views were spectacular!!! There were five of us; parents and our three adult children. Every one loved their room. Our son graduated from The Marine Corps so the location was great.
Perfect Five!!!
We stayed 5 nights over new years. Our dual family with 6 people had plenty of space. Condo was well stocked and comfortable. We loved the easy access to the beach, bay, and top local attractions. We were within 10-20 minutes of the zoo, old Town, La Jolla, seaworld, and airport. If we are ever in the area again we will definitely consider staying again!Things to note:-Parking is one dedicated covered parking spot under the building. Easily fits a standard car, but large truck or SUV may be tight. We had two vehicles, so a few times we had to park the other car a few blocks away. -No dedicated private outdoor space. We were aware of this, and didn't mind because of the time of year. But if that is an important feature, you may consider a different unit. - There will be airplane noise at times. It didn't bother us, but it is present.-If you stay in the cold months, there isn't central heating in the main living area. Space heaters and blankets are provided, so we were always comfortable. -Kitchen is very well stocked. We cooked several meals at the unit, and had everything needed. Overall, a great option for the area!
Great location with amazing views! Only con was only one parking spot. Will definitely be back.

Lived up to the pics!
This is a great stay and the pictures really do it justice. We had 7 adults staying and everyone said all of the beds were comfortable and the place is clean and well stocked to make meals in if you'd like. I'm also pleased to report that the hot water works in multiple places at once so showering wasn't an issue for a group as large as ours.
And the view...just amazing! Thank you
Perfect size house for our family. we had 4 children 7 adults.Had everything we needed.easy access to everything.Felt like we had our own private beach!
The property was well supplied and very clean. The communication with Drift Vacation Homes was good and professional. They provided every necessary detail prior to our stay for a super smooth check in and exit at the end. The property’s location was excellent. Being in the Bay instead of the ocean side turned out to be the right choice. Was quiet and pretty private. Great family vacation for 12 of us!!
My wife of 50 years and I, celebrated the graduation of two grand sons, the confirmation, and my sons 20th anniversary, and a couple of 70th birthdays. This was the perfect spot for 6 adults and 5 young adults to enjoy each others company in a beautiful relaxed setting. The location was convenient to all the things we wanted to do. I’d recommend the property to anyone who wants to vacation with a large group.
A few of my favorite things were all the bathrooms, and the feet washing station outside. We never took the elevator because it seemed very sketchy. I do wish the parking spot was a little bigger and maybe had room for our beach equipment, but luckily it was pretty well stocked. I would recommend this to anyone. We loved it.
