Baja Beach Hideaway in Crown Point!
I stayed for 4 nights with my adult son as we visited family in the area. The place was wonderful for our stay. Mission Bay was just a short walk away, and many restaurants and cafe's were within a 10-15 min walk. Kai and Bev were gracious hosts. We had wet clothing from a beach excursion and put them outside to dry. Much to our surprise, it was cloudy and rainy so the clothing didn't dry. Kai washed and dried the clothing on our behalf - what a nice guy! I appreciated getting to use a cruiser bike to pedal around Mission Bay and the folding chairs for our beach trip. The bed was very comfortable, as was the futon in the living room. I'd note that I'm 5'3" and I was able to sleep on the futon easily, but my son is 5'10" and he was cramped when he tried to sleep on the futon.

Luxury secure w gym/view prime location/style.
An unforgettable stay – 10/10 experience! From the moment I arrived, everything about this Airbnb was top-tier. The space was spotless, stylish, and felt both cozy and luxurious at the same time. You can tell the host put real thought into every detail — from the comfortable bed to the well-stocked kitchen and thoughtful touches throughout the home. The location was perfect: safe, convenient, and close to everything I needed. Whether I was relaxing inside or out exploring, I always felt right at home. The host was incredibly responsive, kind, and made sure I had everything I needed. Check-in was smooth, communication was clear, and any questions I had were answered instantly. Honestly, I wish I could’ve stayed longer. If you’re considering booking this place — do it. I’ll definitely be coming back!

Beach Apartment near Oceanside Pier
Do not hesitate booking this stay for your next vacation. The absolute perfect location, most charming little beach condo, INSANE VIEW!! Close to everything you need in the sweetest town. Steven is amazing and extremely helpful

Hot Tub Bungalow-Belmont Park
We loved our stay in Mission Beach! Perfect for both relaxing and having fun on the boardwalk. The private hot tub was a great amenity to come home to every night in February, when the ocean is still too cold to swim in. The home is tucked away in a cute alley of beach houses and relatively private for being in such a bustling area. We would love to stay again!

La Jolla Windansea Paradise Two
Great location. It's near a surfer beach, but if you're comfy with the ocean, it's a great hang. Also, within about 10m of the main La Jolla Beach which is superb. Cy has all your needs for a great beach stay: boogie board, umbrella, towels, chairs, sand mat, toys. Close location to some decent food. Cy communicates quickly and thoroughly, but otherwise stays out of your way. Place was very clean with a cool shower head. Neighbors in the apartment were very friendly as well. Would absolutely recommend for a beach stay.

Sweet Sea
Bryan’s space was beautifully updated, full of high end features, and in a wonderful area of San Diego, close to the beach and lots of local neighborhood restaurants. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and appreciated Bryan’s prompt responsiveness, friendliness, and flexibility. We highly recommend it and would definitely stay here again.

Luxurious La Costa Condo!
Another fantastic stay at Ricks place in La Costa. So peaceful to hear the birds and swaying palm trees. Sunny pool and warm hot tub plus beautiful resort grounds to walk on. Beach and shopping close.
