Updated Beach Condo with Air Conditioner--Steps to Sand- Sleeps 6

Situated in South Mission Beach, one block from the ocean and overlooking the bay!

This two bedroom condo is beautifully furnished with just steps to the Beach, Bay and Entertainment.

AC has become more of a must have feature on San Diego beaches during the warm months. We have added a portable AC to each of our bedrooms to keep up with our past guests' suggestions. Not having AC means that you have to sleep with your window open and this makes you more susceptible to noise (every place in Mission Beach is susceptible to noise problems regardless of what other owners tell you). Now our guests have the option of sleeping with the windows closed!


Upgraded bathrooms and open kitchen with top of the line designer stainless steel appliances.

All dishes, utensils, pots, and pans are provided for you.

Family entertainment is within walking distance. Park your car in your reserved dedicated spot and leave it! You can stroll (5 min walk) to Belmont Park, ride the Roller Coaster, buy some cotton candy and play carnival/arcade games. Bring your kids with their friends because this condo sleeps six.

The living room is equipped with a 50' Sony flat screen, cable (DVR/HD), sofa and a large chaise, in which both convert to beds (queen and twin).

In each bedroom, there is a queen bed, and 40' Sony flat screen.

The Master Bedroom has a unique designer Star Gazer ceiling complete with ceiling fan.

The Master Bath is equipped with a Jacuzzi bathtub with his and her shower heads.

Sit & relax at the cocktail table on the nice quiet balcony!
The Balcony has a view of the Bay and features a Cocktail Table that is perfect for your morning coffee or those relaxing evening drinks.

Great location
This place was a great base for our week in SD. The location is amazing and we appreciated having a dedicated parking spot. There were lots of nice touches like beach gear (cart, chairs, boogie boards, sand toys, towels) and even some small coolers. The condo did feel a little run down. The master bath had several lights burned out and the jacuzzi tub jets appeared to have mold in them. Overall we had a good stay and feel like the value was fair.

Perfect location
We absolutely loved staying in your rental home! It was so close to everything and Loren met us there and showed us all around, he said if you need anything just text or call. My family was visiting San Diego for one of my daughters wedding and couldn’t have asked for a better location, close to the beach and the bay and anything else you would need.

Beautiful home and great location
We were all so happy with Lorne’s beautiful home. It was the perfect location for everything we wanted to do and within walking distance of beaches and boardwalks. The house was roomy with two bedrooms and the gift of two bathrooms and was well furnished. When we arrived, Lorne met us and showed us around and was open throughout the week to answering questions. Enjoyed our visit and highly recommend this vacation home.

Comfortable Beach Condo!!
This place was ideal. It had everything we needed and the location was perfect. There are flat screens in each bedroom, which I used to wind down before bed. I also really enjoyed the master bedroom's bamboo celling. You have to see it, I have never seen anything like it before. I also want to say that we stayed here during one of the hottest weeks of the year and it was comfortable. No need for AC. I wish we had this weather at home. Thanks for everything!

Nice condo, great location
This condo is in the perfect location: easy access to both beaches, close to Belmont park, restaurants, and walking trails, but far enough away that it's not too noisy. The furniture is comfortable, and the owner responded promptly to all questions. The only thing I would change is that there are no blinds or curtains for the large glass door in the living room, which made it hard to have privacy in the evening. The bedrooms do have blinds though. Overall, we enjoyed our stay, and had a great time exploring San Diego!

Great Property at a Great Price!
We were there for 45 days, so we got to know the property and the owners quite well. First, Lorne is an outstanding host. Second, the condo at 950 sq ft was a perfect fit for my wife and I and our two dogs. It was nicely decorated with an African/SE Asia motif, and clean and comfortable, albeit not luxurious. Third, it is in south Mission Beach, about a 5 minute walk to the ocean and to Mission Bay, and only 10 minutes to Belmont Park and local restaurants and bars. Fourth, the price for our winter stay was very reasonable, and a great value relative to other nearby properties. On the other hand, the unit may be too small for four or more adults - for example, the dining room is more of a nook, and gets crowded with more than 3 people. In addition, the balcony is a tight fit for more than 2 folks, with pool gear to the left and a grill to the right. Finally, although the condo is close to beach, bay, and the center of MB, it is on the corner with Mission Blvd, the main local street, which gets noisy with motor vehicle and pedestrian traffic, especially on weekends with the windows open. However, overall this is a great and reasonably priced property close to the ocean and the bay for small parties.

4/10 Poor

Not entirely what we were looking for...
Let me start by saying the description of the place was 100% accurate, and the people in the building were very nice. What is NOT disclosed, however, is really what detracted from our enjoyment. The building does not have air conditioning. Not a big deal as it is San Diego afterall. Unfortunately, the location is EXTREMELY loud, especially with the windows open, which was necessary, because, as I said, there was no air conditioning. Between the constant airplane noise from being so close to the airport and the roudy late nighters outside, sleep was not easy. Also, be prepared to bring your own beach towels or to buy some at the beach, as none were provided as we have experienced at other places. Bottom line, a nice place. If you are looking for a quiet beach getaway, however, this is not your spot.

Some Tradeoffs
First things first. The condo is clean, has a nice kitchen, flat screens in every room, and is comfortable. It is in a great location for access to beach/bay and the entire area. The owner is accommodating and helpful, and the people in the building are nice. That said, there are some things to be aware of. The complex is a little dated and dingy. This is a beach community, and it looks like the carpets in stairs and hallways have not been cleaned or replaced in a long time after a lot of wet and sandy trips. Smells that way too. Although the unit has a gas grill, when we got there it was covered with grease, sauce and bits of food. The Jacuzzi was broken, as was the window in second bedroom (hinge to close was broken). Thankfully for us, most of the college kids had gone back to school, but there were still enough carrying on over the weekend to wake us up. You pretty much have to sleep with windows open to stay cool. As long as you can work around those things, the beach is so convenient and the owner has boogie boards for use, which was a nice plus.

Great place to stay
Great place. Easy to get to. Parking is excellent. Plenty of options for dining nearby. Beach and Belmont Park are so close. Don’t need to move a vehicle if you don’t want to. But if you do need to you don’t have to travel far for necessities. Highly recommend.

Fantastic property! Great location!
This condo was fantastic to stay in. There's a nice balcony with a table and chairs where we ate breakfast some mornings. The futon and chaise are comfortable (the cushions look like they've been changed since the photos were taken). Not pictured is the jetted tub in the master bathroom. Keep in mind, it's only big enough for a single person. The dual showerheads are great. All the tools you need to cook are there, just bring your ingredients. If you're a coffee fanatic, you're triple-covered. There's a Keurig, 5-cup brewer, AND a French press. The real piece de resistance is the master bedroom. There's tiki hut grass with adjustable starlights on the ceiling. We're going to have to figure out how to do that at our house, because that was wayyyy stunning and romantic to look up at during the night. The property details and pictures show a ceiling fan in the master bedroom, but that is gone now. Currently there's a standup fan and a window AC unit in each bedroom. The weather was so nice, the fans were all you needed to keep cool. We didn't even touch the AC during our stay in late September. Nearby attractions are Mission Beach, Mission Bay, and Belmont Park which are all walking distances from the condo. Lorne and his wife were super responsive and usually got back to us in minutes. Maybe the longest we had to wait for an answer was an hour. We'll definitely be coming back!

Summer Break
Stayed here for a week. The condo is in an excellent location. Very clean and much roomier than I was expecting. It was a very close walk to both the ocean and the bay. My wife and I took 4 to 5 mile walks along the boardwalk along the ocean beach most days. Several restaurants within a 10 minute walk and quite a few more when we walked the boardwalk to Pacific Beach. The condo building was very quiet, never heard neighbors and only saw 2 or 3 others the entire week when going in our out. I would certainly stay here again in the future. It was a quick drive downtown to Seaport Village where we could park. We enjoyed a Padres game, Midway aircraft carrier museum and a harbor cruise all within walking distance from the Seaport Village parking area. Enjoyed watching the fireworks every night that I believe were from Seaworld, you could watch them from the condo balcony or a quick 2 or 3 minute walk out to the bay beach.
