About this property

You'll have the entire condo to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

1 Bedroom on the Sand

***Due to the ongoing issues with Mexico's water treatment pumps, the ocean is not guaranteed to be open at this time.. They do test the bacteria levels daily, but the majority of the year the Ocean has been closed from the Border, past Imperial Beach up to Coronado Beach. If swimming in the ocean is a major amenity I would not stay in these areas, until further notice.***

Sandcastle

The Sandcastle is a 4-plex, that sits right on the sand. There are 2 units on the first floor, and 2 units on the second floor.

Your unit #916A

Unit #916A sits on the second floor on the south side of the building. This is a very simple property. You have a Queen bed in the bedroom area, and there is also a Queen size sofa bed that can be used in the living area. There is No Air conditioning in this property, but you can open the sliding glass door that goes to the balcony and have amazing ocean breezes. I would highly recommend this for 2 Adults, or family with 2 children. A little too small of a property for 4 adults.
​​​​​​​
The area

Relax in a quaint beach town, stroll on the quiet beach. Walk on the old fishing pier, and bring your rod and bait! Excellent surfing! Watch or participate! A 10 minute drive affords you easy access to the famous Island of Coronado and its golf course. 25 minutes takes you to the world famous San Diego Zoo, Seaworld, San Diego Embarcadero, San Diego Convention Center, fabulous desert or mountain drives, Mexico, and all that the sophisticated city of San Diego has to offer!

Perfect location
Great little place to stay. I almost didn’t need to drive anywhere- the beach was out the back door, and there are plenty of restaurants, coffee shops, and convenience stores nearby to walk to. Would definitely stay here again!

Starting the new year with the ocean!
Lovely stay on th we ocean walked the pier every day several times a day! Watching surfers just right for two people. Was cold but we expected that so had to bundle up and sit and drink coffee play cards and watch the ocean. The condo is very basic so pack condiments for cooking and soap for showering extra pillows if you like lots of pillows the bed has four. Such a nice location we will come again! See you again Imperial Beach!

Beautiful view of the ocean from the second floor of a quadplex. Peaceful, quiet and safe with just the right number of local restaurants and coffee shops while you are enjoying the sound of the breaking waves. Awesome unit for a small dog as well . Stayed here to visit a few friends from San Diego county . Perfect location for my husband and I along with our 12 lb Italian Greyhound. Was very happy to stay at an affordable VRBO right on the beach. Would highly recommend.

The sound of the waves!
We've stayed here a number of times over the years, it's our refuge! The apartment is not large, it's very basic, but for us it's perfect! Bring your own coffee and can opener :-)... The main attraction for us is the ability to sleep with the sound of the surf! The waves crashing just a short distance away is the most relaxing thing in the world! It is very rare to find a rental so close to the ocean!

Location can’t be beat!
This unit was extremely comfortable for my partner and I. Catching sunset on the lanai and falling asleep to the sound of the ocean made for a very relaxing trip! We would stay here again in a heartbeat and highly recommend! As other reviews mentioned, the unit is well-appointed in a bare bones kind of way. Be sure to pack your own toiletries, beach towels, and bath mat because they are not provided by the cleaning company.

Very basic and cut short due to weather warnings “Hilary”
The interiors were very basic. There were no beach towels, no coffee, no water and only one light blanket for the very uncomfortable fold out couch. I slept on the bar and tried rotating through out the night. I went to make dinner and the can opener did not work So Trying to find a store open at 9pm was not easy. There are only three parking spots but four rentals so we had to pay for parking every eight hours. I had to get up at 1am which was not ideal for vacation and not being on a schedule. We also had the helicopter flying over and we’re surrounded by a swat team due to a crazy man in a white jump suit. I have the video footage. This place does have a Perfect view but not comfy or accommodating like most places. Also left a VM for a call back the day before our arrival and wasn’t able to speak with anyone until I called the following day. WiFi password did not work either but they resolved quickly. Left one day early due to hurricane Hilary and let the office know via email and voicemail. No return correspondence to acknowledge either message was received. Not asking for any reimbursement :) just confirmation of call returning possession.
