BEAUTIFUL CONDO ON TOP FLOOR
50 STEPS TO THE BEACH
ELEVATOR
PARKING SPOT - reserved and secure
VIEWS
NEWLY REMODELED
EVERYTHING YOU NEED is provided, just bring your personal essentials!
SUPER CLEAN
This lovely one bedroom (with additional sofa bed) condo is on the top floor of one of the tallest buildings in Mission Beach with GREAT VIEWS. From the wall of windows you can see all the way south to downtown, north to La Jolla, west to the Pacific and east to Mission Bay.

The moment that you step in the door, you are surrounded by a feeling of relaxation and calm. The bright new furnishings and happy decor make it easy to jump right in to a 'leave your troubles behind' mood, and the fact that you are only steps from the Mission Beach Boardwalk with miles of sand and sea bring that feeling into reality!

MISSION BEACH, the BEACHWALK, MISSION BAY, RESTAURANTS, SHOPPING, BELMONT PARK (with it's roller coaster and wave machine) are just a short walk away. SEA WORLD is a five minute drive while SAN DIEGO ZOO, BALBOA PARK, DOWNTOWN SAN DIEGO with it's GAS LAMP DISTRICT and OLD TOWN are within a 15-20 minute drive!



The wall of windows and terrace off of the sunny living room look out to the Pacific Ocean on the right and Mission Bay on the left. With views of the Downtown San Diego skyline and Sea World fireworks (nightly in the summer...weekends year round!). You can see for miles while you sit on the terrace with your morning coffee.

If you insist on working or just keeping up with the internet, we provide super fast WiFi service. And also have additional sports channels for your enjoyment...when you're not outside at the beach!

The kitchen is equipped with new stainless steel appliances, including a microwave, dishwasher and trash compactor. Just bring food because everything else is provided! All this is surrounded by beautiful marble counters and floors.

Extra care has been taken to provide the most comfortable bed (the mattress was recently replaced with a $4000. luxury mattress that sleeps like heaven!) with down pillows and comforters. We've also recently installed an aircondtioner in the bedroom which enables you to choose the most comfortable temperature for your sleep preferences. And if you're too chilly, there's a fireplace on the wall that not only provides heat but delicious romantic atmosphere!

The bath, with tub and drenching rain shower head, has been completely remodeled and surrounded with travertine marble tile on the floors, shower and vanity top.

Every care has been taken in the hope that you feel like the special and valued guest that you are!

Pleasant
We loved this condo. It had everything! The town was pleasant. We enjoyed morning walks, steps away from dining, the beach. Katherine was a great host. The check-in tour she gave us was necessary in order to grasp the ins & outs of accessing the condo, the building is old and not digitized/modernized. You need a physical key to access everything. You need a key to access the stairs, to access the doors inside the stairwell, you need the key to also access the elevator and to access the garage, and to access the showers outside to rinse off all the sand before you enter the building. And you need a separate key to access the condo/unit. This is no fault of the condo owners, but the building/property management, digital keypads would really be an upgrade. Parking on site was a huge lifesaver!!! If you are sensitive to noise, I would bring earplugs. We were well aware that there was no central air, and sleeping with the windows open allowed better airflow. However, you can hear motorcycles, other traffic. Also, running AC units on the ceilings of nearby buildings. The bedroom does have a window unit for Air Conditioning which helps drown the noise, and it did get pretty cold. And there are two tower fans in the living room. This town was very pleasant. My husband and I felt very safe walking around at night with our 4 year old. The condo had everything you needed to take down to the beach. And we were able to cook breakfast in the mornings. I would stay here again.

Mission Beach Apt on Redondo Drive
Dearest Sandi, your beach apt was just so Lovely, and my husband and I truly loved it and enjoyed it so very much. So nice that it was by the bike rentals, Mission Cafe, Moe's Steak Restaurant, Guava Bar, Olive Cafe, and Molly's Healthy Cafe. Loved the perfect location and the beach area is always such a perfect spot. Everything about the beach apt was great with a beautiful kitchen and bathroom, plus the bed was perfect, my goodness it was so perfect. First time ever for us in getting a perfect bed to sleep in, so that truly was an extra plus. The Living Room was nice, too, and so comfortable. I will have to say that we were definitely Lucky in finding this great beach apt.. Once again, thank you so much Sandi and Kathryn for all the help you gave us for our Mission Beach stay that was so very nice and enjoyable. Hopefully, we can book it for next year as well. Immense Thanks! J and G

Love the location
We’ve stayed in this building maybe a dozen times in different units. This unit is one of the nicest. Things we like - proximity to beach, stores, restaurants, etc. The kitchen is well stocked and the a/c in the master was great during a SD heatwave. Things we don’t like - being on the top floor, the noise from nearby rooftop industrial fans is loud and non-stop. We’re sensitive to noise so this was a big negative.

Great Location & Views
We loved the location of the condo. It had great views from the balcony of the bay & the beach. Quiet condo complex and clean. Parking here for this unit is parallel parking in a tight garage so for a SUV it was a little difficult-I'm not the best at parallel parking. The pictures online are pretty similar to the unit. There isn't much space to put food in the kitchen, so we just kept it on the counter. To access the bathroom you have to go through the master bedroom, which was fine for us as we were with our kids. The beach and bay were super close. The outside water to rinse off was nice. I didn't realize they had beach equipment in the unit to use. We brought our own. But they had umbrella, chairs, boogie boards and I believe sand toys. Very helpful owner & property manager too. We arrive super late and they gave us the info to check in ourselves which was super accurate. thanks for a great place!!!

This condo is in the most perfect location. Far enough from the noise but not too far to walk to the fun. The beach is literally "right there!" There are gread holes in the wall for drinking and dining. The condo has everything you need for yourhome-away-from-home experience. And the towels.are so.soft! I want to know what they use in the laundry. My only complaint, and it is minor, is the watered-down soaps in the bathroom. I used more than twice as much so its not really saving money in the end.

This spot was a very easy walk to the beach and many restaurants nearby. We also rented a car and loved that we had parking. We were able to get to everything that we wanted to see in San Diego within a 15 minute drive. This spot was ideal. We rented bikes overnight and it was nice to have a garage place to keep them. We had minor maintenance issues, but Katharine, the property manager, and Sandi, the owner, were doing everything they could to get it fixed. Great people to work with!

Great time. Nice location.
The unit is well stocked with pretty much everything you need. Very close to the beach. The bed is super-comfortable with a nice selection of blankets so you can choose the one for the season you are visiting. Towels and bathing products well supplied. The TV and internet worked well. The one (big) problem we had was that the elevator stopped working after our second (of 9 nights). Being on the 3rd floor, it was pretty challenging when we left resulting in multiple trips to/from the car. Also, the dishwasher worked, but needs some "attention" and the photos posted here need some updating. Our hostess Katherine was very helpful and informative. Gave us valuable info about the area including restaurants and places to visit.

Fabulous location and nice condo
We (myself, husband, and son) really enjoyed our stay here. Condo was very clean and comfortable. Fruit bowl was a nice touch. The location can’t be beat…just steps to the beach! Two minor complaints…the elevator in condo is very “touchy” and sometimes didn’t work. This forced us to take the stairs to third floor which wasn’t a big deal except when our arms were full of groceries. Secondly, the portable air conditioner in the bedroom wasn’t set up and we didn’t realize. The first night we woke up sweltering, realizing the outflow tube wasn’t in the window but instead was blowing hot air into our room. However, even after putting it in the window and setting temp to 70, room was still hot. Fortunately there was a fan in closet and that helped. Just as an FYI for future guests…room was quite warm even with the portable AC. I would still recommend this condo as a great place to stay, based on location, price, safety, and cleanliness.
