The location is superb for a SoCal beach stay that is away from the crowds of San Diego, but close to enough to enjoy all the area has to offer. Lived watching the surfers and dolphins from the living room and balcony.

It is a nice space for a family of five. The codo is clean and right on the beach by a nice park. It's an easy walk to many restaurants and the pier. The town is friendly and has a very comfortable feeling.

Long overdue CA getaway
My husband and I came to CA to attend our nephews graduation from the Navy Seals SWCC program and stayed at this wonderful property on Imperial Beach enjoyed coffee on the balcony every morning watching surfers
The condo had everything we needed and the area is easy to get around
We especially liked having coffee at Ye Ole Plank Inn about a block away and The Brigantine restaurant was very good for a nice sit down meal (especially if you like seafood)
The property owner Ed is easy to reach and very helpful with any questions we had My sister brother in law and nephew stayed with us a couple of nights there was plenty of room
San Diego has a lot to see so hopefully we can come back and will definitely stay at this location if it’s available:)

The views of the ocean, beach and pier were awesome. Great for walks. Restaurants walkable. The beds were comfortable, secure parking, and space in condo were excellent (had new: in-suite washer & dryer, microwave, fridge and dishwasher) Interior could use some updating. Only 25-30 minute drive from San Diego Old Town, Hop on Hop off tour and Zoo. The host, Ed was very helpful. Overall a very enjoyable stay.

Great place for a Family Trip!
Our biggest gripe from our kids was that they weren’t allowed in the water due to sewer leakage from Tijuana. We specifically booked to be on the beach so that was definitely a bummer. That would have been nice to have been disclosed. Not being from the area- I didn’t know about the issues but from reading articles it sounds like this has been an issue since 2021. (We started getting in the water and had the lifeguards stop us). However, the sunsets were killer from the condo! Beautiful beach otherwise with an awesome pier to walk.
Ed made check in a breeze and the fruit basket was wonderful as well. Basketball courts and the pool/spa were great to keep the 4 kiddos occupied!
The only other issue we had was at random times of the day- the entry way would smell heavily of pot. It seemed to be coming through the vents- so I’m sure it was either someone below or next to us.
Overall- we had an awesome family trip and if the sewage issues at the beaches resolve then we will be back for sure!
