Tropical Retreat! Just steps to the surf & sunsets!

Tropical Retreat is now a monthly rental which means rates are lower per night so your vacation can be longer and in the same price range you would spend for a typical summer stay. One level, ground floor with a private patio, just 60 steps to the sand! Boardwalk and is just steps away from the sunset every night! Excellent location close to Belmont Park and within walking distance of all the attractions and eateries! This is a great value and very close to the beach, just steps away from the boardwalk. You will love our location. Only three doors to the shore, near the corner of Ocean Front Walk and Dover Court. Bright and sunny cottage-style unit with a big patio area and covered parking. We have two of these cottages sitting side by side. See photos that show two of each room and click on the map to see how close we are to the surf! Our Sandcastle is located on the beach OCEAN side of Dover Court in South Mission Beach, just 3 blocks south of Belmont Park. Enjoy grilling and dining while just steps away from the deep blue sea, the boardwalk, the beach, and the surf! Close to the action, yet quiet and relaxing for a peaceful stay. Your kids can play in the ocean right in front of lifeguard tower #12 in the summer months which is located right out on the beach where you will set up your day at the beach! Extra guests will enjoy the quality Sofa Sleeper in the living room, always a favorite place to sleep with the open beam ceilings and TV. The sofa sleeper is full-sized. This one-bedroom can comfortably sleep up to four. Lots of windows give this beach house character and a beach cottage feel. We love our furry family, but please leave your pets at home. We have a strict no pet-policy to keep our homes clean and allergy-free for all guests! The Famous roller coaster at Belmont park, local grocery markets, and oceanfront dining are all within a 2 to 3-block walk. Lots of bike, kayak, surfboard, and sailboat rentals are all nearby. Plenty of boogie boards and sand toys are available at the property for guest use. We have a guest laundry room with multiple washers and dryers that will help you pack lightly. Carport parking is covered and semi-enclosed. Check out all of the extra photos! Compare with others! This is the best value in Mission Beach! We would love to have you visit us!
