We had an amazing time at this unit! We did a 5 night family vacation to San Diego (4 year old and almost 7 year old) and we all loved it. You truly are seconds from the beach or the bay, and they both offer great, different experiences. It is easy to walk up to Belmont park and the attractions/restaurants/shops there. We were so glad we stayed in Mission Beach and felt that it was truly a fantastic area.
The unit itself was fantastic. Having the twin beds for the kids was great, and it actually is even nicer than the pictures can get across. It is very nicely done and had everything that we needed. There were even beach towels and sand toys there for us to use while we were out there. The kids also loved having a TV available in their room (which let us get a little extra sleep in the morning).
Lisa was also a great host. She was definitely available and she lives above the unit which is super convenient. She was always available and was extremely helpful. I don't think we needed much, but it was nice catching up with her while we would have wine/beer on the front patio.
We truly would stay here again if we go back and would absolutely give a strong recommendations to others to stay there.
