Great place to stay with family. Fantastic location with easy beach access!
PROS:
-Excellent location - quick access to a quieter, less busy spot on south mission beach, yet still walking distance to the busier Belmont park area & shops.
-House is very thoughtfully stocked - all the kitchen dish/cookware, appliances, utensils you could need are there! Closets are stocked with xtra pillows, blankets, and plenty of fans.
Loved all the beach equipment available in garage - beach chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards and sand toys! Beach towels were even available in upstair bath closet.
Garage fits two regular sized vehicles - we had a mid-size sedan, and mid-size SUV, and they both fit great. (Super hard to find in a beach front property!)
-Outdoor shower, and spray hose on the sides of the house were helpful for beach days to rinse sand off bodies and beach equipment!
-Rain shower heads in both baths were delightful.
-Cute front patio - perfect for eating in and grilling.
-Plenty of beds (sleeps up to 10) due to the creative sleeping areas set up.*
-Comfortable beds - especially the master
-Full Washer & Dryer!
CONS:
-There are some full-time residents next door. This is not the rental for loud party-goers. This wasn't a super con for us, because this was a family trip for us, but we still felt conscious about it when hanging on the patio in the evening.
-*Suitable for family groups, where privacy is not really an issue. Wouldn't be ideal for several separate couples, as one of the queens is in a pass-through room. You cannot access the garage, laundry, or entire second level without passing through the room. Another room with a dbl/single bunk is in the large coverted master closet upstairs. You have to pass through the master bedroom and the master bathroom to access it, which could make showering etc. awkward if teens or adults are in there. Again, totally fine for families with kids.
-NO A/C. It was hot during the day, but bearable with the doors & windows open to let a breeze flow through. We were comfortable enough at night with all the fans that were provided.
