Great, clean place to stay on the bay!
This is a wonderful location, just wish it had a view of the bay. No washer/dryer as listed but not a big deal, it was very clean and comfortable. The only complaint is the neighbors dog being loud, getting in the way of the garage when checking in and out and there are so many loud noises here at all hours.

Awesome Location
We had an amazing stay last week in this property! It was plenty spacious for my family and exactly as described in the listing. The shared patio has a beautiful view of the bay and the walk to ocean is about 2 minutes. The description of the garage is accurate. It is VERY tight. I had a Dodge Charger sedan and had to climb out the window to get out once I was in. After the first night I ended up just parking at Mission Point park in the free overnight spots and just walking 10 minutes. There are plenty of beach toys, umbrellas and a wagon in the garage to use which was awesome with 2 small kids. Overall, I would highly recommend this location!

Perfect place to stay and in a great spot! Just a few steps away from relaxing on the Bayside and then cross the street to the Ocean side! Got the Best of Both! Place was super clean, all the amenities you need. Close to lots of food, shops and beaitiful walks! The garage is small but so nice to have and loaded with great beach chairs etc. Would definitely stay here again!! God Bless America!

Hidden Gem
Beautiful location, short walk to the beach and Boardwalk. There is a little grocery store nearby which is ok in a pinch, but it’s expensive and not super well stocked. Best to pick up your groceries in the shopping district (which is about an hour walk along the boardwalk or an 8 mins Uber ride). I loved Mission Beach and this little apartment was very reasonably priced, excellent location and well stocked.

Great get away
Stayed for 4 nights. Space was clean and spacious. While we didn't cook the kitchen was stocked with all essentials. Close to all things that we wanted to do. There weren't many restaurant options on the main strip near the apartment. You can walk for sure but know it will be a mile or more. Otherwise a block from the beach and the bay right behind. Nice and quiet. The property manager was amazing with communication when needed and had the pleasure of meeting the owner who was also incredibly friendly. This was a great stay for us.

Comfortable
When I started my search on VRBO and came upon this property I said to myself, this is perfect! Not to mention the property included a garage (huge plus) it seemed almost too good to be true. There must be a catch! But everything was as perfect as it seemed online. Diana provided us with all the necessary access information (garage code & entry into the apartment). The kitchen is fully stocked with everything one needs to prepare a delicious meal. The large assortment of spices! It felt like I had entered my home pantry. The bed is extremely comfortable not to mention "loved the linens"! The overall size of the space is absolutely perfect. The location couldn't be better, so close to the airport and many attractions that San Diego has to offer. Your space in everything and more! We will definitely be back. Kind regards, Jo-Ann & David

This home is set up very comfortably with space to have privacy from each other. Lots of storage. Kitchen is well stocked with full-size appliances. Keurig coffee maker. Toyota Corolla fits in the private garage. Peninsula and the ocean are just steps away. Quiet neighborhood. Great food within walking distance.

Great stay on beach
The stay was amazing to be on beach. The unit was cozy and had all essentials. It truly felt like a home away from home. As stated by others the garage is tight so book a smaller vehicle. The place is a short walk to the boardwalk for food and entertainment. The owners were very responsive when we had questions or issues and resolved right away.

Bayside Affordable Find is in a perfect location on the Mission Bay side of Mission Beach. You are one house length away from the sand of Mission Bay and a very short walk to the beach. The upstairs apartment is bright, comfortable, quiet, and just about everything is new and fresh. Parking is at a premium at Mission Beach and a bonus feature is that it has a garage. Diana of The Beach Renter delivers a high level of guest service.

Great quiet place in the bay
The condo was great. Location on the bay was fantastic. Parking is really tight! Garage is very narrow. Unload your stuff, (and your kids), and then back in! Very clean place. Having A/C is a big plus after a hot day walking around attractions. No view- so if you’re looking for one, don’t book here. We didn’t mind- we were gone all day everyday anyway. Owner lives downstairs. She and her husband were very nice, but not imposing at all. Patio out front on the bay is the perfect place to watch fireworks from Seaworld. Nice parks close by. Mission beach is a one minute walk. Excellent location. I would book here again. Much quieter and more relaxed than the ocean side of Mission Blvd. Perfect for families.

Had a great comfortable stay right on the bay and walkable to most things. My 4 year old loved the beach toys and handy to pull her and all the stuff in the wagon so she could jump in the 'big waves'. Would look at the place next door with the view next time, only thing missing!
