Gernot’s place is so handy! If you are a solo traveler and love the beach, coffee shops, walks on the boardwalk and people watching it’s the place to stay. I hired a surfboard for a week (Cheap Rentals, just up the street, as recommended by Gernot) and was able to surf whenever I wanted to. And it’s very handy to what else is available in San Diego. The bus is just around the corner but there are also Bird scooters available on most corners and plenty of Lyft share rides in the vicinity. I used Lyft a lot, to access the City, and found it an interesting way to get further afield comfortably and cheaply. I also loved the practicality and freedom offered by the scooters, and wish we had them at home. Gernot has a lot of good local information to share and is happy to do so. He also has lovely neighbors who are very friendly and welcoming. The home is comfortable, bed good, and there is everything you need to have a pleasant stay. I slept very well here. All in all, Gernot provides a great place to stay, avoiding the high costs of other Mission Beach holiday accomodations. Thanks Gernot, I really enjoyed my time at your home, was fortunate to be able to extend my stay (thank you for that too!) and would love to return one day.
