This is a great location with a nice wide private parking space. We were there while there were restrictions because of Covid, so it was very peaceful and quiet. When the restrictions are lifted, the volleyball courts are immediately behind the unit, and the boardwalk is on your back porch, fine if you want to watch and hear the action. If you are not familiar with Mission Beach, this is at the extreme southern end, a mile south of the roller coaster, with few bars or stores close by. That was fine for us, we liked the quiet. The place itself is old and dated, with old and dated furnishings, small kitchen that is hard for more than one person to work in, but a nice sized dining table, and a nice extra room before the outside patio. Not the cleanest place we ever stayed in. View from inside and from the patio is the beach, nothing else between you and the view. The water itself is not quite so close, because the beach is rather wide at this particular spot. Kids can play in the sand within view, very convenient. A curiosity, even if you are a short person, is that the bathroom sinks are extremely low, it makes it very hard to rinse your face.
