2bed 2bath Steps to the Sand in Mission Beach and Bay

Summary:
This beautifully updated 2 bed 2 bath apartment is the perfect spot for a San Diego beach vacation. Each bedroom features a queen bed, full bathroom, and private entrance. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need to cook up a delicious meal, and the spacious living room leads out to a lovely deck with outdoor seating and a BBQ. Located in the heart of Mission Beach, you'll be steps away from the sand, restaurants, bars, and the bay.

The Space:
This beautiful and updated upstairs beach bungalow is the perfect home away from home for your San Diego vacation. It is located in the heart of Mission Beach, just steps away from the bay and a short walk to the Pacific Ocean. The apartment is approximately 900 square feet and is fully equipped with all the amenities you need for a comfortable stay.

The bungalow features two bedrooms, each with a comfortable queen-size bed and its own fully updated en-suite bathroom. Both bedrooms also have their own smart TVs, so you can relax and watch your favorite shows before bed. The bathrooms are stocked with quality hotel towels, as well as shampoo, conditioner, and soap, so you don't need to worry about packing those essentials.

The living room is spacious and comfortable, with a big smart TV for your entertainment needs. The kitchen is fully stocked with all the essential tools and appliances you need to cook and prepare a gourmet meal. You'll find high-quality cookware, utensils, and dishes, as well as a refrigerator, oven, microwave, and dishwasher. The living room opens up to a large deck with a set of table and chairs and other available seating so you can relax outside. There is also a BBQ available for your use, so you can cook your own meals and enjoy the beautiful San Diego weather.

The apartment can comfortably sleep four guests, but we also provide a high-quality 8 inch queen blow-up mattress for the living room as the 3rd bed option, which is available in one of the closets. There is high-speed internet throughout the apartment, so you can stay connected during your stay.

The bungalow also comes with a designated parking spot in the garage for a small to medium car. There is also a private washer and dryer available for your convenience. If you prefer to have your laundry done for you, there is a laundromat within walking distance that offers drop-off service at an affordable weight-based fee. The beach cottage is thoroughly cleaned between each stay. However, if you wish for a cleaning and change of linens during your stay, we can arrange for the housekeeper to come for an additional charge of $120. Please give us one day's notice so we can schedule it accordingly.

The bungalow is pet-friendly, pending approval. To be considered for approval, your pet must be a small to medium dog. A non-refundable pet fee of $150 will be applied if we have to do extra cleaning for urine/soil stains or excessive hair or sand because of the pet.

For your safety and security, there are recording devices located outside the units, recording 24/7. These recording devices are for your safety and the safety of others.

Overall, this beach bungalow is the perfect place to call home during your San Diego vacation. It's cozy, comfortable, and fully equipped with everything you need to make your stay enjoyable and memorable.

Guest Access:
We have space for a medium to small car in the Garage but you are going to want to walk around MB or take an UBER/LYFT. The restaurants/bars/shops are all within walking distance to the apartment.

The Neighborhood:
Mission Beach is San Diego's classic boardwalk beach town with over five miles of waterfront boardwalk, trendy shops, restaurants and Belmont Park, a beachfront amusement park featuring the historic Giant Dipper Roller Coaster, miniature golf, bumper cars, rock climbing and an arcade. Mission Beach is just a few minutes to Sea World, 15-20 minutes to The San Diego Zoo, Balboa Park, and San Diego International Airport (SAN), and downtown San Diego. Bayside Bungalow is located in Central Mission Beach on the bayside of Mission Blvd. The Bay is located about 25 yards from this home and the ocean is right across the street about 100 yards.

This home is located in a high-density neighborhood and is only suitable for quieter groups.

There area also scooter/bike rental places everywhere in Mission Beach. The Beach, boardwalk, restaurants, bars, grocery stores, playgrounds, bike rentals are all within walking distance. I would also recommend parking your car and using UBER/Lyft to get around or just walk as everything you need is within walking distance from this unit. We do have a small One car Garage that fits a small/medium car.

Great location

The property was in an ideal location close to the beach and the bay. However, we had a few issues with the unit. The description said the property has WiFi. It wouldn’t work. The carbon monoxide detector was beeping when we arrived. Also, the tub didn’t work in the big bathroom. We emailed the property contact about all of the issues. We were told the WiFi information was in the binder on the desk and new batteries were in the kitchen drawer. There wasn’t a WiFi code in the binder and there were no batteries in the drawer. We had to unplug the detector (not very safe) and we had to use the internet at a local cafe(not at all convenient)! We used washcloths to plug the drain in the tub so our toddler could take a bath. For the price we paid, I’m not sure it was worth the inconvenience 😩

AMAZING

I have stayed in mission beach twice and this location is the best place EVER. The amenities were incredible. The patio is huge, there’s a smart TV in each room. The garage is nice, a little small, but it works! Washer and dryer is nice as well. everything was clean and nice. There was even a first aid kit! The binder of information was extremely helpful and the location was perfect.

Cleanliness & needed repairs

The bedding was not cleaned or changed from previous guests. The bedding had sand from past guests and we had to wash and change bedding ourselves on Saturday a.m. trash was not taken out and about 50% of the lights were either burnt out or not operable, not sure which. The location is perfect and outdoor space was relaxing.

Wonderful stay!

I loved staying here! Its right between the ocean and bay! Perfect location! The property was immaculate and had everything we needed. The beds were comfy and rooms were nice size. It was great having a garage and my Cherokee fit as parking in Cali is a challenge. Walking distance to restaurants right in the middle of the action but set back enough from it all. The host was kind as well as the housekeeping staff! We were able to bring our dog too! I recommend staying here for sure! Thank you!! Christina

Great location but a couple drawbacks

My family enjoyed the ability to walk half a block to the bay or a block and a half to the ocean. It couldn’t have been more convenient. The location was a 10 min walk north of Belmont park, so close enough to easily access, but far enough away to be removed from the crowds. Accommodations were nice enough and the kitchen had all the necessary equipment. On reading other reviews, I saw that it was easy to hear downstairs neighbors. This is true. We couldn’t hear talking so much as the daily activity of people walking and bumping around. And each time the garage door opened it was loud, especially for the bedroom above the garage and the main kitchen/living area. We also discovered the unit experiencing electrical issues. We had the power go out in the middle of the night and also one morning. I found myself with the downstairs tenants at the breaker boxes at the side of the garage flipping breakers. The outages were specific to the building, and seemed pretty random. Neither of us had put stress on the circuits, especially during the event in the middle of the night. Shortcomings aside, we enjoyed ourselves. The price was right, but you get what you pay for.

False Advertising

Firstly - no a/c - doesn't say there isn't or is a/c. Clearly not telling the whole truth. Tenants across from us and near us had a/c. Garage was stated as a 2 car garage - not happening. Barely fit one car. Parking is definitely an issue if you're bringing more than one car. The bathrooms were not clean at all. The cleaning people left all the other tenants shampoo, soap, etc in the shower. Definitely not sanitized. Because of this issue, we were also afraid to sleep in the beds wondering if they had been cleaned or not. Luckily I brought a lot of Lysol Spray with me. One of the bathroom showers was fixed with tape. The curtains in the living room were torn. The only plus is that it was by the beach. Definitely not worth the money paid.

Great location, larger than appears

My family loved staying here. Had everything we needed, they approved our dog too. Perfect location, walk around the corner and you’re on the beautiful bay with walking path. Go the opposite way and your on the beach. So easy, 10 min to the zoo. We would go to the zoo in the morning and beach in the afternoon. The layout makes the place feel quite large. The outside porch is great.
