~Bay View, King Master, Amazing Rooftop
This bright and airy upstairs unit is located just steps from the sand. Walk 2 minutes to the ocean and under 1 minute to the bay! It boasts plenty of light and a nice sea breeze when you open the windows. Luxuriously comfy King bed! Large, sunny, shared rooftop terrace with great views of Mission Bay. We supply you with beach towels, beach chairs, and boogie boards! Dedicated parking spot will fit a midsize SUV.
Janet & Scott are your hosts. We are a husband and wife team and we live nearby. We own and operate Mission Beach Villas, a highly rated vacation rental management business in San Diego.
We are available 7 am to 10 pm to answer questions during your stay.
Our storefront rental office, Mission Beach Villas, is only 3 minutes walking distance, so if you need anything feel free to stop by! If you have an early flight, you may stow your luggage at our office so you can go to lunch or hang out on the beach until check-in time. And if you have an afternoon flight on checkout day you may also stow luggage. Just coordinate these details with us and we are happy to accommodate. Please note, we charge a small nominal fee for luggage storage.
Before your stay, we are happy to suggest our favorite restaurants, and tourist attractions and will help you get acquainted with the area.
The best thing about the neighborhood is there is so much within walking distance you really don't need a car. You could just take a taxi from the airport (6 miles away), get dropped off here and you're at the beach! We have local restaurants, trendy beach bars, excellent coffee spots, and breakfasts cafes all within a few short blocks. Sea World is just 3 miles away.
- The Heart of Mission Beach - The location is on the south side of Santa Clara Place (the only traffic light in North Mission Beach). It is equally centered between Belmont Park (the roller coaster area) and Crystal Pier in Pacific Beach.
- Outdoor Activities - Recreational opportunities abound! It is within walking distance to Santa Clara point where there are numerous recreation activities and rentals available including: stand up paddle boards, kayaks, jet skis, windsurfing, catamarans, sail boats, water ski boats, and even jet packs. There are group classes and private lessons available in all of these activities. What's more there are free yoga classes on the beach each day at the end of our court.
There is a fantastic surf spot at the beach for beginner to advanced surfers and great for spectators as well. There are affordable surf lessons offered daily on the beach by our friends at Surfari Surf School. What's more, we can point you to all the best surf spots in San Diego County. And we have two world class board shapers who live on our court in case you want to get a new surf board while you are here.
We offer self-check in with access to a keypad lock to make your arrival as easy as possible.
You will have access to a spacious rooftop patio and BBQ that is shared with the 3 other units of the building. (The other units are vacation rentals so feel free to say hello and make friends with your fellow travelers if you encounter them!)
Your parking spot is only meant for up to a mid sized vehicle. A large SUV probably will not fit due to side clearance needed opening car doors.

They also rent surfboards, wetsuits, standup paddle boards and a lot of other fun beach equipment.

The apartment is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms and a dining area. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a sofa bed, and a coffee maker.

Fabulous condo and awesome location!!
We had a great stay! The condo is just as it's described it was clean and comfortable with plenty of room for the 3 of us.The location was wonderful, being so close to the bay, the ocean and great restaurants that were within walking distance. The rooftop deck was nice to layout on when the beach was a little too cool with the wind.We had a couple of hick-ups with someone in our parking spot and a smoke detector that started to go off at 11p ( why do they always act up at night?) the hosts were fabulous to help and get back to us right away. They were so good about information and helping us with our rental. We would stay here again.

My FAVORITE midwest winter escape!
Mission Beach for 5 years is my winter destination and this unit worked perfect for me. Love the location - without a car I use the Metro or bike to visit LaJolla or even Coronado. This unit is spacious and accommodated family & friends that came to visit me. Having the rooftop and laundry made it extra nice!

Nice layout, wouldn’t recommend.
Good things: - large space, kitchen was big enough for our needs.- rooftop patio was nice.- location was excellent.- parking was fine. We had a small sedan based on past reviews. Could’ve easily had a small suv - like a Hyundai Tucson/Rav 4.Bad things:- floors were dirty. My friend had on white socks, turned black. They came and remopped.- The hvac system was horrible. It wasn’t working and we couldn’t turn the ac off. It was cold at night so we needed the heat. We slept in our clothes. They finally sent someone but it took a few phone calls. Just a weird set up for the hvac.We were thankful that they agreed to give us a partial refund, which we very much appreciated.

Mission Beach
We had a great stay in Mission Beach. The location and property are great. The highlights of the property are the rooftop deck and great off-street parking. The location is perfect just outside the super busy areas but within easy walk to all the attractions. Great place to stay we would do it again if we are back in the area.

Great sister getaway!
Convenient to both bayside boardwalk (1/2 block) and ocean boardwalk (2 1/2 blocks). Clean and well cared for - a very minor issue getting access when we got there, but Jill was very responsive and her crew very helpful. Pleasant surprise to have coffee and snacks already there Would definitely return!

Very centrally located property with beautiful rooftop patio
Janet and Scott were great hosts; they were very prompt with communication and flexible to allow us early check in.
The property was very centrally located. The parking spot was super convenient. The rooftop patio was my favourite part of the rental.
There is some room for improvement. Though most of the property was very clean, there were hairs all over the inside of the shower curtain. The bedding was not very comfortable - the pillows were very lumpy and the duvet had holes in it. The kitchen had all the right appliances but it only had exactly 4 plates and bowls, which made us have to do dishes after each meal (there was 3 of us there). Many of the window blinds had were broken or had missing slats. The couch had one seat that was very sunken in compared to the rest of the seats. The bathroom was extremely old and missing plugs. The sink was cracked.
Some upgrades to the above would really elevate the rental.
