About this property

Two Bedroom Beach Cottage in Pacific Beach, San Diego

If you're looking for a fun beach getaway look no further! Located in the Pacific Beach area of San Diego, this modern beach cottage is the perfect family vacation spot. Play hard all day at the beach and then come home to relax and chill out. Cook out on the outdoor barbecue. Cruise the boardwalk on the supplied beach bikes. Dedicated parking spot for even a large SUV. Just 3 miles from Sea World & 6 miles from the airport!

Janet & Scott are your hosts. We are a husband and wife team and we live nearby. We own and operate Mission Beach Villas, a highly rated vacation rental management business in San Diego.

We are available 7 am to 10 pm to answer questions during your stay.

We have a storefront rental office, Mission Beach Villas, about 1 mile away from this property, so if you need anything feel free to stop by! If you have an early flight, you may stow your luggage at our office so you can go to lunch or hang out on the beach until check-in time. And if you have an afternoon flight on checkout day you may also stow luggage. Just coordinate these details with us and we are happy to accommodate. Please note, we charge a small nominal fee for luggage storage.

Before your stay, we are happy to suggest our favorite restaurants, and tourist attractions and will help you get acquainted with the area.

Pacific Beach is THE place to be at in San Diego. There is a lively beach scene as well as plenty of fun bars and restaurants along Garnet Avenue and Mission Blvd. But this cute beach cottage is a total gem because it is set back away from the crowds on a residential street. The neighborhood is safe and secure.

We offer keyless digital entry and you will have private access to the beach cottage. There are no keys to lose, just a simple 4 digit passcode to remember.

Why stay at a hotel when you can stay in the comfort of your own home right across from the beach!?
The other two units in the triplex are also vacation rentals so feel free to be friendly and meet your neighbors, who are other fellow travelers.

The cottage comes supplied with the basics you'd expect at any hotel like a hair dryer and iron. Plus you have a kitchen and living room to enjoy. We think of everything you might need and even stock you with a few beach towels so you don't need to pack those in your suitcase. Why stay at a hotel when you can stay in the comfort of your own home in a friendly neighborhood? Vacation like a local.

To orient you here are some distances from the home:
3 miles to Sea World
5 miles to La Jolla Cove
5 miles to Historic Old Town
7 miles to San Diego Airport
10 miles to Gaslamp Quarter
11 miles to San Diego Zoo/Balboa Park

If you don't bring a car you will be fine. App based cars such as Uber and Lyft are readily available for local transport at an affordable rate.

Due to insurance reasons, the person booking must be at least 25 years old to book and must upload a photo of government ID to the host within 24 hours of booking.

The property has a portable air conditioning unit in each of the two bedrooms for comfortable sleeping. (Not central air) During cold months, the property is heated with space heaters.

Please note that we have occupancy based pricing in our settings. Please select the correct number of people in your group at the time of booking to get the correct pricing for your stay. Keep in mind, if you add more people to your group after booking the rate may adjust slightly. There is an additional charge of $20 per night for each additional person after the initial 4 people. This keeps our rates low and affordable for our average group size for this listing and helps us charge an appropriate fee for the additional linens and utilities used by a larger group size. Thank you for understanding.

This cottage is on the back lot of a 3 unit complex. You have your own private entrance. The square footage is 600 square feet.

This property offers a dedicated parking spot for one vehicle behind the house. Additional cars will need to park on the street but parking is usually abundant on this block except perhaps in the peak summer or in the evenings.

Beach gear includes beach towels, bodyboards, beach chairs and sand toys for the kids.

The vacation rental 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 the standard cleaning fee. Please give us one day's notice so we can get this scheduled with the housekeeper.

We love children and want you to know that they are more than welcome as our guests. This means that children of any age, even infants, are counted as guests in your guest count. Please let us know in advance the ages of all children and whether you require a pack and play or anything else.

Want family pictures on the beach? What better backdrop for a group shot than the stunning backdrop of the ocean or bay at sunset! We can arrange for a very affordable local portrait photographer to do a photo session of your family on the beach. Let us know in advanced if you're interested and we can connect you with the photographer.

We can connect you with a service that will set you up with a private bonfire on the beach. They include set up and take down, portable steel fire drum, roasting sticks, hot dogs, and s'mores. A perfect activity while waiting for the nightly summer Sea World fireworks over the bay. Inquire for details.

Recreational opportunities abound. We can get you hooked up with renting: surfboards, stand up paddle boards, kayaks, jet skis, sail boats, water ski boats, etc. If you're not experienced in any of these but want to learn, we can connect you with group classes and private lessons available in any of these activities.

Are you into yoga? There is free daily yoga on the beach nearby. No yoga mats needed. Just bring a beach towel & water and you are all set. (It's donation based so maybe bring some cash for the instructor. )

Beach vibes on a budget

Great location near bay and ocean as well as local shops and restaurants. Comfortable beds and good temp control options. They made attempts to deal with the dampness in the unit with moisture absorption bags, but there were clear signs of mold in the bathroom (shower curtain and window shade, ceiling). Overall, the cleaning needed a step up-- rug needed to be cleaned to get rid of debris and dirt, and there were stains on some sheets, towels, and curtains. Window screens also need attention. Aside from that, the place was comfortable and easy to access.

Parking spot is a blessing!

This is a nice little beach house in a quiet neighborhood. It is comfortable and conveniently located near Mission Bay and the beach. It was great for our girls week at the beach. The biggest plus is having the parking space right behind the unit. This is a typical beach community where parking can be difficult. The kitchen is adequately supplied including dishes for children. Spices are very limited so bring your own. We used mostly premade meals. The appliances were a little difficult to figure out but we did find the owners manual for them. Overall it was a very enjoyable stay and would consider coming back. Make note that the rental agreement doesn’t allow for visitors other than those registered so don’t plan on inviting any other company over.

High quality, good price

Everything about this property was good to excellent. The neighborhood is quiet, laundry was free, beds comfortable, kitchen was fairly well stocked, there were two smart TV's, the place was clean and tastefully decorated; it's close to the bay and not so far to the beach either. They offer free bikes and beach gear--both pretty beat up but usable. I'd stay here again.

Family Friendly

Great place to visit with kids! Less than 2 blocks walk to the beach at the bay, and a short drive or bike ride to the ocean beach. The house was child-friendly and so comfortable for an easy family vacation. Any minor issues that arise were handled swiftly and professionally by the managers or assistants.
