Great place to stay, very close to beach! Only thing I can say is there is no comfortable couch. We would not get comfortable on the futon that was there to watch the Dodgers games. Other than that it was great.

This unit was exactly as laid out in the description. Remarkably clean. Had extras we were not expecting such as beach toys, chairs and equipment. Maurice, the host, was amazing. Quick to reply and helpful with anything we needed. The rooftop was the best and is where we spent our evenings eating dinner and drinking wine. Very relaxing. The balcony was perfect for breakfast. Not listed but was fantastic was the taco shop at the end of the street. About a block away. Can't beat tacos and a beach combo. Thank you Maurice for allowing us to have a great birthday weekend.

Great stay, roof deck is the star of the place (and enormous) along with proximity to beach. Parking was tight but reasonably achieved (some mission garages are impossible even w smaller cars). Note that there are two bedrooms each with a bed, and then two couches that fold into beds in the small living room - from the pics I thought there were 4 real beds (but that may have been a me problem in how I interpreted the pics and layout / it worked out). Interior isn’t high end and the living space not huge, but was clean and the price fair / competitive for what it is. In short if you don’t need super luxury interior / furnishings, this place gets you an enormous super luxury roof deck and amazing beach proximity in a clean place and at a price that isn’t super high end for the area - all in all a good deal since that’s likely what you’re coming to the beach for!

This was a great location. Steps from the beach! And it was a 2 bedroom 2 bath which is hard to find. And a private rooftop deck is pretty awesome! It also had a balcony as well where you can sit and watch the waves.Looks like they did charge me a cleaning fee however, even though we spent a good amount of time cleaning upon exit.

Host was very responsive and easy to communicate with. The unit has had many upgrades since the photos were posted online. Second floor balcony extended with glass walls, in addition to glass walls on the rooftop. Amazing views for both second and third floor. Perfect for a family of four. Or Subaru Oatback fit comfortably in the garage in addition to a couple of bikes. The area is very safe and easy walk to restaurants and just steps to the beach.

The selling point is obviously the 10 seconds walk to the beach. For 12 days, we enjoyed awesome weather and super easy access to Mission Beach. The penthouse is great for a couple, even for hosting local friends for a daytime barbecue. The roof deck is super spacious and has tons of seating for hosting. The place was clean and caught the ocean breeze, even had AC if it ever got too hot. Our pup loved sitting on the living room deck and watching the strandway.

We had such a wonderful time at this property! It was SO close to the beach and plenty of space for our family of 6. My kids loved the rooftop "lounge" and my teen thought the grill was fantastic, if a little slow to heat. Air conditioning made it comfortable even in the evening sun. The kitchen and garage were very well supplied. Our minivan did just barely fit in the garage with lots of maneuvering. We did have to pull it out a couple feet for dryer access. We had a great week playing in the ocean and sand.

An Unforgettable ExperienceIf you’re looking for a place that truly transports you — perhaps back in time — this is it. The home tells a story with every surface: a delicate layer of sand throughout lends a beachy vibe (even in the oven!), and the lovingly preserved vintage rust and mold add a certain… patina. It’s rare to find a property where you can contemplate both tetanus and tetrachloride at once — a real thrill!The kitchen dishes come pre-seasoned with mysterious smudges (great for those who hate doing dishes on vacation), and the oven has a rebellious spirit — part performance art, part hazard. Sleeping arrangements were definitely an adventure in creativity; what the listing calls “sleeping spaces” may be better described as interpretive. Our son even woke up with mystery bruises, courtesy of the “accommodation” — proof that the furniture, like the rest of the house, really leaves a mark.Overall, it’s an experience that lingers with you — in your memories, your luggage, and possibly your immune system. Five stars for boldness, for character, and for reminding us that not all vacations are meant to be relaxing — some are meant to be survived.

Misrepresentation of sleep capasity

The location was great and the facilities were fine. But, they represented that it slept 8. There are two bedrooms, one queen and one king. The main living room has two futon like couches that unfold into “ beds”. They are not comfortable and impossible to put bedding on. So, they really shouldn’t represent that it sleeps 8. Maybe 5 or 6, but really perfect for 4. Hey, but the roof top area is cool.

Beautiful house & location!

We had a great stay here. The location was absolutely perfect being so close to the beach but not directly on the boardwalk. The only thing, which wasn’t an issue for us since we were strictly there to relax, was the wifi did not work at all while we were there. So if someone had to do work, I could see that being an issue, but otherwise a perfect stay! We will be back.

Awesome location and property

This is a very nice place to stay that is so close to the beach. The property manager was readily available to help when we couldn’t figure out something in the bathroom and he didn’t hesitate to come immediately and show us rather than instruct us over the phone. Very kind! The rooftop deck was fantastic!

This VRBO was perfect for our young families stay. The location was unbeatable, walking distance to so many shops, restaurants and the beach. The beds were extremely comfortable.

Perfect house!

Halfway through our stay, I was already looking at other properties that are ran by Maurice and his team for a future vacation. This house specifically is in the best location. Close walking distance to everything, comfortable beds, perfect places to relax from the rooftop to the patio and so much more. As many other have mentioned, Maurice is the perfect host. He replied within minutes to all requests and was very kind. I can’t speak highly enough and would give this place more than 5 stars if possible. Perfect getaway and we are looking forward to visiting again!
