The apartment is really well located, steps to the beach and to the bay. As others have already said, it's a bit noisy at night since there is two bars around, but this is what makes the location so good, everything is within walking distance. We didn't have problems to sleep after a day full of activities. Mission Beach is perfect for beach lovers! There's surfing, skating, stand up paddling, a perfect bike path, kayaking, I just love this area and the apartment location is perfect for all of this, the neighborhood is full of sumner rentals and then we were surounded by happy people having fun all the time. The kitchen is well equiped for those who want to cook at home (like we did), the size is perfect for three people to live comfortably. We didn't have the chance to meet Miles but he was always available by phone or email. The only reason I won't give five stars is because the furniture looks a bit old and have a few stains. I suggest you wash the upholstery to make this apartment a perfect beach rental.
