Nothing beats Ocean Front

There really is nothing like being ocean front. A beach vacation is always nice but the difference from being a few blocks away from the ocean and being ocean front is really like being miles apart. This is an opportunity to be ocean front in South Mission Beach one of the premiere locations any where in the world and our location is away from the large parking lots where the beach gets crowded. Many days at our house you'll feel like you are on a private beach. Treat your family to an OCEAN FRONT vacation and you'll never want to stay anywhere else.

Comfortable one bedroom apartment directly on the ocean front, direct ocean views from the living room and kitchen. Located in a quiet area in South Mission Beach but only a five minute walk to the attractions at Belmont Park.

Just a block away you'll find a liquor store, a grocery store, a coffee shop, a pizzeria, a bar & grill and take out Mexican food.

A maximum of four people are allowed on the property at any one time. Please no events or parties. Great for a small family or a couples getaway.

Inside direct ocean view from the living room and kitchen. Fully furnished kitchen. DirectTV and free WIFI access. Simmons Beautyrest Heavenly King Bed with an adjustable base in the bedroom and queen memory foam sleeper sofa in the living room. All linens provided. New laminate flooring in the living room and bedroom, tile in the kitchen and bathroom.

Outside step onto the beach or enjoy the patio with a table, chairs, loungers and umbrellas. BBQ on gas grill while enjoying the ocean views.

Onsite outside parking for one medium sized vehicle. (large vehicles like a Suburban will fit but it's tight)

We're a five minute drive from Sea World, a 20 minute drive to the world famous San Diego Zoo and about 40 minutes to Lego Land. San Diego is home to many golf courses including Torrey Pines about 30 minutes away.


Make yourself comfortable in this apartment, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. There's a private patio. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a Smart television is provided for your entertainment. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker.
This smoke-free apartment features snorkeling nearby, surfing/body boarding nearby, and scuba diving nearby. Recreational activities include water skiing nearby and windsurfing nearby.

Really enjoyed the location for activities and people watching on the beach/boardwalk. Was a little warm for no AC, but that's not the norm in San Diego, so understood and there would really good fans.

Any closer you’d be in the water
We had a great stay, the first night the upstairs people were a little loud, but they checked out the next day and the rest of our stay all we ever heard from the upper unit were occasional footsteps. The kitchen was well equipped, we had breakfast every morning before we went out for the day. Bed was very firm not a complaint just an fyi. Shower was great, living room and outdoor spaces were good. Right on the path that goes from one end of the beach to the other, beach volleyball right out front daily, nice to watch while having an end of day beer! My only issue was I washed the dishes and cutlery when we arrived, the previous renters were not as particular as me. But that aside it was perfect for our little vaycay, if you are expecting luxury, keep scrolling but if you are looking for a great place to stay this is great. There is a little Mexican place within walking distance called “Sara’s” 2 minute walk and we LOVED it, fresh, fast and delicious! We also ate at a place called “draft” and it was pretty “meh”. Would stay here again. Super quiet at night!

Wonderful Experience
The location of the condo was outstanding! Right on the beach and close to all kinds of shops and restaurants and things to do. We enjoyed our walks on the beach and the beautiful sunsets! The condo was very clean and just the right size for us. Everything worked well including the gas grill which we used multiple times. We felt right at home and truly enjoyed our stay. The owner was very friendly, helpful and welcoming! We would definitely stay there again if we get back to San Diego.

Great little place, but be aware:
So cute, great owner, location is amazing - being right on the beach changes everything. We are long time mission beach vacationers and it made all the difference to walk out the door and be in the sand. A couple things to be aware of - the parking situation is tough for this property. Street is narrow, curb is EXTREMELY steep so you need a mid size or smaller vehicle with a lot of ground clearance and a tight turning radius to park on the property. We chose this listing because it sounded like we would be able to park my Charger in the spot and nope, it scraped so we couldn’t get it up in to the driveway and had to get on street parking a couple blocks away. Also, if you are planning to cook all meals on your vacation be aware that there are a few basics that are missing from the kitchen (namely can opener) and the knives are well used. My husband cooks so this was a big thing for him as we had brought food for cooking/preparing at “home” and really struggled. If neither of those things would be issues for the type of car you have and trip you have planned then this is absolutely the perfect place to stay for your right on the beach vacation. Cute, comfortable, clean, great assortment of sand toys/towels/chairs. Also love the patio for lounging and people watching.
