Great home and location
The location was perfect. Walking distance to places to eat, the boardwalk and more. Beach access is steps away. The home comes equipped with everything you need to go to the beach. Looking forward to staying here again.

Great experience from this Surf Style Vacation Homes rental, so close to the beach, nicely designed just like the photos, plenty of parking, and fast communication through our stay. We wouldn't hesitate to book any of their homes for a future San Diego getaway :)

Ideal for adults
This place is ideal for adults. Close to the beach and walking distance to cafes and restaurants. Keep in mind; parking spots are small (we had a difficult time parking our truck). We worried about our toddlers climbing up and down stairs and walking to the beach. No a/c unit, it was HOT July 4th. Airplane traffic noise in this area. They also had a strict visiting rule (NO Visitors).

No AC and No Parking. Can’t recommend.
No AC. Was Way too hot inside the unit in mid- August. Definitely not a good summer rental. There are two parking spaces noted as designated for the unit, but these were not available when we stayed as other vehicles continually parked in them. Surf Style was not interested in correcting this. So plan on no parking spots at a crowded beach locale. The furniture was new and the unit was very clean. Proximity to the beach is good.

A Fun Place to Stay
Had a very nice stay at Avalon 3. Pros - great location that's close to everything, very comfortable beds, all the amenities you need for house and beach, and the unit was decorated in very nice beach decor. At the south end of Mission Beach, so beach was less populated, which was nice. Parking spaces were essential - convenient and easy to come and go as needed. The place was perfect except for one thing - no air conditioning. When we checked in at 5:30 p.m., it was 98 degrees inside! and it got into the 90s every day even with fans going and windows open. We couldn't sleep with the bedroom windows open because of the airplane traffic overhead from SAN Airport. We were very warm and spent our evenings trying to cool things off. We loved the unit, but we'll look for a different place with AC for our next visit to San Diego.

Great location
The place was clean and the location was great. The outside sitting area does not have a view and it’s mostly shaded, so chilly for when we were there (mid-Nov). One downside is that the dishwasher had standing water in it that we were not told about ahead of time. I left an email and then a phone message but no one called back the next day. I called again and when I mentioned this they said they would send someone out to look at it and get back with me, but they never did. Better communication and follow through would have been appreciated. They did send someone over with dish towels as I asked for some since there was only one and we had to do dishes.

Great place to stay at Mission Beach
We really enjoyed our stay. We had a unit on the 2nd floor. The shared deck is nice and spacious with a grill. The pillows for the outdoor furniture are in the chest on the deck. The only downside is that you have to share the outdoor space with another unit, but if you don't mind making new friends that shouldn't be a problem. The parking is super tight. Our Chevy Silverado truck was sticking out into the road and we literally had 1/4" on both sides between the poles. The unit is stocked with everything that you need. Plenty of dishes, measuring cups, mixing bowls, coffee, salt & pepper, hand soap, toilet paper, paper towels, etc. With extras. Really, all that we needed was provided. One small complaint is the garbage bags are super thin. We brought regular white kitchen garbage bags and used them instead. There are beach towels, boogie boards and beach chairs in the closets. Can't beat the location. Steps away from the beach. There is a small grocery store in a walking distance. We got half & half, milk and other stuff for breakfast that we needed. The closest grocery store is 9 minutes away which is very convenient.Belmont park is a 10 minute walk from the unit. The master bath is very small. There is no AC, but there are big portable fans in the closets that you can place around the living room. We just had windows opened all night, which made us concerned about noise with our neighbors (we had children with us).

Great location, nice condo
We stayed over the holidays. The unit had everything we needed and is in a nice location just a few minutes' walk from the beach and the bay. It was quiet, being away from the main commercial areas of Mission Beach. Very comfortable beds. Some neighbors had signs up that indicate they don't like the short-term type of renters, but you can just ignore the signs. My main quibble is that the overall cost for a 5-night stay was ridiculously high.

Brand New Rental property
Everything inside the property were new, from furniture to appliances. No AC ,however; it was too hot in the house (June). The local neighbors were not friendly to vacationers. Signs against renters were everywhere, creating a negative vibe for vacationers. All in all it was a okay stay for us but we probably won't be back due to the negative vibe in the neighborhood.
