My husband and I with our two teenager sons spent four nights at Cheyann's place in San Diego on Mission Beach. We enjoyed our stay, it was a very short walk to the beach, and I was always able to run back to the rental for any incidentals that someone would forget while we were on the beach. Everyone enjoyed the boogie boards each day, and we were able to cook breakfast and dinner each day at the rental, and only went out for lunches while we were out and about. My husband and son walked each morning to a close coffee store, and my husband and kids rented surfboards and wetsuits from a close rental shop that they walked to. We rented the scooters each day if we wanted to go further down the beach, and not have to drive. Having the beach so close was the best part of our stay, not to mention the many, many activities we did while in San Diego: surf lessons on Pacific Beach, Kayak Tour in La Jolla, San Diego Zoo, and a visit to the USS Midway. The kids found time to spend at the beach every day and will always remember our vacation there.
