We had an absolutely fantastic stay! The location truly couldn’t be better – just a short walk to the beach and surrounded by great restaurants which made everything so convenient and enjoyable. The property itself was spotless and very well maintained, which we really appreciated from the moment we arrived. The garage and parking situation was great, plenty of space and so easy. Everything about our stay was smooth, comfortable and stress-free. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a perfect getaway spot!

We had a wonderful stay, the property itself was clean, very well stocked with anything you could need. The location was perfect, close to everything, just steps from the beach, bay, and shops just as it stated. One thing, and the only thing that was slightly misleading was that the upstairs unit and downstairs unit are two separate units. Which it does state that it offers privacy, but unfortunately for us, there were 5 in our party and my mother is in her late eighties which created some issues, especially with the stairs which we were able to make due with. Aside from that, no complaints here. The property managers handling the home were always quick to answer our questions, and were friendly and professional in doing so.

We had a wonderful stay at this property. The home was very clean, comfortable, and had all the amenities we needed for a relaxing trip. The garage parking was excellent—it kept our car secure and made accessing our bikes incredibly easy.The location is fabulous. It’s about a 60-second walk to the beach and within easy walking distance of restaurants and shops, which made everything very convenient. We could both see and hear the ocean from the living room, which made the space feel especially peaceful.One thing future guests should note is that the downstairs bedroom with the en suite is detached from the main upstairs living area, with exterior stairs connecting them. Because of that layout, it may not be ideal for young children or elderly guests who need to stay in the same interior space.Although the rental is pet friendly, the steep stairs could be challenging for some dogs, and there isn’t a particularly convenient nearby spot for quick potty breaks.The hosts were very helpful and communicative throughout our stay. Overall, we had a great experience.

We had a great stay at this property in Mission beach . The location was perfect .. just a short walk to the beach , restaurants, and shops. The house was clean and well kept, and the host was easy to reach. The layout was a bit tricky for our family as the second bedroom was downstairs which is completely separate… like a in-law unit . But, overall the place was fantastic. The large garage was a big plus! We hope to see you again next year . Thank you

Nice place. Great location. However, no place to put clothes in 2nd bedroom. 3 drawers but no hooks or closet. We had to use our beds, TV & door handles. No AC when we arrived. Repair man was there but couldn’t get it going & it was a holiday weekend. Contacted mgr and it seemed they didn’t know it was out. They sent over window AC units but they only cooled the bedrooms. Nothing for the kitchen and living room. Not good for hanging out with family to watch TV, cook meals, play games or socialize. That was disappointing.

Great location, Great stay!!
Amazing location! I’ve stayed in many rentals over the past 20 years in Mission/Pacific Beach and this rental had more amenities than any other place I’ve stayed. They have thought of everything. We felt at home our entire stay. I would highly recommend staying at this rental. Note that the bottom bedroom is separate from the top kitchen, living area and bedroom. Worked out good for us. Also the garage is huge (for Mission beach) and can easily fit 2 standard size cars. We would absolutely return again!

Great Location
Overall: fine. The location can not be beat so if that’s what you’re looking for, you’re in luck. Ample beach gear by the host was helpful. Kids beach toys in the outdoor storage bin. Comfortable sleeping, amazing showers.
Outdoor shower does not work, but there is a hose to rinse sand off your feet. Lots of ants. No full length mirror in home. Living room furniture is gross and smells like wet dog. Second bedroom (2 twins and 1 bath) is ONLY accessible by entering through the garage or from the outside patio in the back. Not ideal for a family of 4 with 2 children ages 5 and 11. It is in the “things you should know” however we somehow completely overlooked that detail. Overall, would book again based off of location alone. A 30 second walk to the beach/2 min walk to the bay made up for all that was lacking.

Fly infested
Very dissatisfied with our stay, from the moment we got there it smelled like “raid” roach/fly killer!! Within 5 minutes noticed hundreds of flys on the windows and spent like 30 minutes swatting and spraying flys, absolutely disgusting!!!! This fly situation went on for 3 days!!! If that wasn’t enough the dryer didn’t work so we’re traveling home with wet clothes! Great location, unfortunately terrible rental experience.

Clean place, great location
We loved staying at this property. It is by Pacific Beach / Mission Bay, so the vibe is a little different from the typical family-friendly neighborhood. However, since this house is set a little bit inside from the beach, it was always very quiet at night in the house. It has a sliver of a view of the ocean and the beach from the living room, but is otherwise surrounded by tightly packed houses. However, you can walk to either Mission Bay or Pacific Beach in less than a minute. We really appreciated having the garage to park our rental car since parking is hard to find in this neighborhood.
The one odd thing about this house is that the 2nd bedroom is an afterthought added to the back of the garage. To go from the main house to the second bedroom, you have to leave the house, go down the outside staircase, enter the garage and then enter the 2nd bedroom through it. This was not a problem for us because we have 2 teens and I think they actually liked that it was setup this way. The neighborhood felt very safe so we didn't have any concerns in that regard. However, if you have much younger children, you may want to reconsider.
The house was really clean and the agency which manages this rental were easy to communicate with and all the entry codes etc. were sent in a timely manner - so we had no issues getting into the house.
There is a nice large dining table and a decent sized kitchen for anyone who might want to cook a little while vacationing. On this trip, we chose to eat out at every meal and therefore didn't end up using the kitchen at all - so I can't comment on how well stocked it is. There are some really nice breakfast places within walking distance (Intazza - Good food), (Woody's - okay food, great views).
Finally, this place is a short drive away from a lot of touristy places - Balboa park, San Diego Zoo, San Diego Zoo Safari Park, Torrey Pines State park, and Beach towns like Del Mar, La Jolla, Cardiff, Encinitas. Nothing was more than 20ish minutes away by car.

Great house, Terrible Management.
House was nice and the location was fabulous. 710 Vacation Rentals, the management apparently hired by VRBO, was terrible. There was a scheduled power outage they didn't warn us about. No electricity all day Wed. with loud trucks spewing gas from 7am to 5:30 pm. No wifi, no hot water, no tv or a/c. Couldn't open any windows with gas smell wafting up from the alley. The windows were filthy and the screens were all trashed anyway. 710 Vacation Rentals sent a text telling us that a screen company would need to access the house at 9 a.m.
to measure screen replacements. I asked them to please wait until we left as we'd already lost a full day at the house with the power outage and noise. I was told we would not be bothered, but sure enough, we were woken up again Friday morning at 9 am by a knock on the door, asking to come inside. I emailed VRBO about being reimbursed for a portion of our stay, but they sent a reply via 710 Vacation Rentals. We set up this vacation through VRBO. It was switched to 710 Vacation Rentals. Too many people involved with no one taking responsibility. We did not receive the privacy or services such as electricity that we paid for. I am very disappointed and feel a reimbursement should follow. Is anyone listening?
