About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Steps to the bay and the ocean!!

Very small (under 400 sq ft) & cozy 1 bedroom located in the heart of San Diego's most famous beach community. Just steps to Mission Bay, the beach, the Boardwalk and Belmont Park, Only 1.5 blocks to the beach, and only two doors from the Bay! Only has 1 queen bed and a very small sofa for a small child.

Please note, this is literally the center of MB, less than a block from Belmont, which is great, but expect a lot of people and possibly traffic congestion especially during spring & summer.

While some may compare San Diego's Mission Beach to the East Coast's Atlantic City and Coney Island, there is a unique Southern California vibe you can't find anywhere else here. Nestled between Pacific Beach on the north side, and Belmont Park on its southern side, Mission Beach offers a lively and robust variety of activities in the sun, surf and sand. From hot dog stands to fine dining eateries, hot night clubs to street performers, expect to find all kinds of free-spirited beach goers in a fun, carnival-like atmosphere along the sandy shores.

Perfect little spot in the heart of Mission Beach

We absolutely love this place! Be sure to read this description, it is small and it is in a fairly busy area with a nightlife in Mission Beach. We had no trouble with noise though. It’s easy access to the bay and the beach and lots of restaurants. We would definitely stay here again. Owners were extremely responsive and very easy to work with as well. In our opinion, there’s no downside to this stay location.

Poor representation of property

Location was very noisy as it was on the main street. The accommodation was advertised as sleeping 4 adults. One queen size bed up against the wall with a framed sign on the wall telling occupants to "please do not attempt to use, sleeper sofa is inoperable". Couch slanted toward floor, so you rolled off during the night. No drawers anywhere to store clothing, and no hangers in the small closet. The furniture was pictured as white and was all grey (unimportant, but not accurate). 3 towels for 3 people for a 6 night stay. My point, for the most part, is that it should be advertised as a cute, small accommodation for a couple. We made the best of it.

Small gem

My two night stay was enhanced by the location, location, location of this condo. Small: yes — but the cute front patio was my go-to relaxing place. Watching this beach community tick was huge fun. Landlord is super nice, easy to communicate with. And I was grateful that a 2-night stay was fine (many places have 3-Day minimums in the summer). Give this a try!!

We had a great time in the Mission Beach area.

This property is very central to everything in Mission Beach. We had access to great restaurants and pubs as well as bicycle rentals. Everything was nice and clean when we arrived. The kitchenette had everything we needed for breakfast meals. The owners were responsive when we called to ask to park earlier than our arrival time (parking is very limited in this area). The only shortcoming was that we weren't really able to enjoy the 2nd story deck as water from recent rains was ponded up on the surface. Also, this deck space is not super private as it butts up to the neighboring property. Despite this, we really enjoyed our stay and would stay here again.

Great Location

This was my first time travelling to California, and I had a great time staying in Mission Beach. The apartment is only a block from the boardwalk and there are tons of great food spots nearby. The room can get pretty hot during the day, but the sea breeze helps at night. The owners were very helpful and informative, so getting settled in was quick and easy. I would recommend this location for those who want to stay close to Belmont Park and the beach.

Great location, quaint little apartment.

Great location, a bit tiny and could use fresh paint or a wall wash but overall we were very happy. The patio was fantastic to sit on day or night.

Not clean.

Nicely decorated, too bad that level of care didn't carry over into the cleanliness. Stains on comforter, walls and baseboards need cleaning and/or painting. Garbage not emptied, coffee pot still had old grounds and coffee in it. Old unwashed sheet crumpled up in hide-a-bed.

An excellent place to stay.

The apartment is small, but has everything we needed to enjoy our time in San Diego. The location was excellent. Mission Beach is laid back, easy to get around, with lots of great eating choices. We had a little trouble with the TV, but Drew (the owner) showed up within an hour to fix the problem. Very impressive. Would recommend this unit.

Right in the middle of everything!

I couldn't get over how everything was just a few steps away. A block and a half to Mission Beach and also the bay. Plenty of places to chose from to eat, drink, shop, etc. The kitchen was well stocked. The place was just as shown in the pictures. People mention how small it is but it tells you in the description the square footage so this should not be a surprise. This was much better than staying in a hotel. The patio was great and nice view of Belmont Park. I read reviews that discussed how noisy it is but it's right in the middle of all the action so it was expected and didn't bother the three of us one bit. You have dedicated parking for two cars if you need the parking space. If I came back to San Diego with a small group, I would certainly stay here again!
