Charming Beach Apartment...Steps to the Beach and all Attractions



Villa Blanca is a beautifully restored, six unit, vacation rental apartment complex in a safe, tranquil, garden like setting steps to the beach and boardwalk. All of our apartments are named after world famous beaches. Our Malibu apartment is bright and sunny with garden views. You can hear the waves and smell the surf! This spacious, first floor apartment is charming with bright red/grey/ Black beach decor. The large galley kitchen is fully equipped for making a gourmet meal or simply packing a picnic lunch for the beach. The grounds of the building contain a barbeque area, outdoor shower, beach toys and boogie boards and bike racks. This upscale family friendly neighborhood is a minute walk to every restaurant cuisine you could imagine plus shopping, grocery stores, bars and all the board walk activities. Freeway access is near by and there is a local bus stop at the corner of Misson Blvd.

The location was one block from the beach and a great location. There was only street parking for the one bedroom units which wasn’t usually a problem. The recycle bin had a rusted lock which was difficult to use and should be replaced. The toaster provided was rusted and dirty, I bought a new one myself.The manager had purchased a replacement and said she would reimburse me for the one I bought but she never did. The VRBO description said there was coin operated laundry available but there are no laundry facilities for the guests. Bed pillows were poor quality and lumpy so we bought our own.

You can’t beat being so close to the beach! A spot if you’re looking to be close to some bars etc (we weren’t hence only 4 stars for that). Communication with the host and property manager were prompt and helpful!

Great location! Lots to eat and do in the area. FYI, since it is within 1/2 block of the beach parking is difficult during the day and there isnt designated parking.

pacific beach stay
The place is smaller then it looks in the photos! The queen bed in the bedroom makes a noise everytime you roll over. Garbage disposal did not work. The windows were very hard to open, no vacuum so you couldn't vacuum up the sand and debris. It was clean. It was extremely noisy with all the other condos right next to one another. The biggest disappointment was the no assigned parking.

Check in was quick and easy. Property was nice. Walking distance to all the bars and beach areas. The apartment was perfect for my wife and I. The only issue was parking. There were alot of campers on the street, they took up all the parking.

Brilliant stay in PB - location and apartment super!
This apartment was perfect for the three of us. My husband and I had the double bed and our adult daughter had the sofa bed, which was comfortable she said. We couldn't work out how to turn it into a double bed (not that she needed it) for a few days, but did it in the end as we were curious. Megan (the property manager/owner?) was super in all communications: we received an email with all relevant details for the check-in a few days before arriving in San Diego. We had questions regarding the WiFi and Megan came back to us immediately, offering a solution but also to come over if needed - no problem at all. The apartment had everything we needed and more! All the basics were there but also things we didn't expect, like games, books, yoga mat, beach towels on top of the bath towels, shampoo and conditioner and also some condiments in the kitchen, very useful as you wouldn't want to buy these just for 6 days. There were also other things we didn't use but if the weather was nicer (it was quite cold in April 2023), we might have, like the outdoor chairs, the bike racks, the BBQ,... The outdoor hose pipe to wash our feet was super practical! The location was brilliant as well! Every morning, jogging along the beach, where we can find lots of shops selling hot drinks and breakfasts (we only had this once, but there is a vast choice). There are also a lot of grocery shops not too far (we used Trader Joe's and Vons). If you like to be near the beach, to run, swim, surf, lounge around, play beach volleyball - we recommend this place. Some people reviewing this place before us, said they could hear the neighbours at the top, but we only heard noises we expect to hear when people live in apartments and in no way was it unexpected or a nuisance. It actually made the place friendlier as we met others going in and out. The only thing we couldn't get to work was the door to the trash area (rubbish as we say in the UK : -) so we had to leave the bags just outside the apartment; thankfully, the cleaner was there and told us that was ok. All in all, yes, we would definitely recommend this place! You'll have a great time!

north pacific beach haven
the location of this property is outstanding...a block to the beach and away from all the noise of pacific beach bars..etc. Megan Rose was outstanding in assisting with check in, check out and any inquires....called back in minutes. The condo is not brand new so expect some history..cracks in walls or peeling paint...still very charming...perhaps 4 new cushions on the bed as they were pretty lumpy. Kitchen was so well appointed..everything you need! All in all would definetely stay there again!

Enjoyed our stay. Steps to the beach. Walking distance to restaurants. We had a problem with our door lock and it was promptly swapped out. The one negative with the location is that it is very loud.

Great location! But not very updated.
First of all, the location was great! A block from the beach! Watched the sun set every night! Close to many restaurants with varied cuisine. We ate at Kono's Cafe down by the pier/wharf (Breakfast/Lunch place), Thai Village Restaurant and Bare Back Grill (excellent Wagyu Beef burger and Habanero Fried Chicken sandwich). Neighbors were very quiet. Provided beach chairs were easy to get down to the beach (backpack straps). The apartment itself could use quite a bit of TLC. Some is easy like patching the walls, cleaning the windows, getting better kitchen ware (felt like it was hand me downs from the entire family's kitchens), another fan would have been great! More difficult items: Need more electrical outlets (there was only one in the main room, one in the tiny dining area and two in the bedroom). This made it difficult to place the fan near the windows to bring in the outside air, difficult to plug in toothbrush, phone and ipad chargers. A larger TV would have been nice. Both the living room and bedroom TVs were pretty small. Because of the location, the imperfections were kind of easy to forgive. Would we stay there again? Probably not unless the price was right.
