Charming Beach Bungalow steps from the Ocean & Bay

Footsteps to the sand on the bay or the ocean! Enjoy staying in your own romantic, private beach bungalow.

The beach house is 15 seconds (25 yards) by foot to Sail Bay and 2 minutes (100 yards) by foot to the Pacific Ocean.

This bright and cheery, immaculate beach bungalow has all the amenities of home on a bayside court of Mission Beach and Bay. It is surrounded by beautiful Mission Bay on one side and the magnificent Pacific Ocean on the other, both with incredible white sand beaches.

The Oceanfront Boardwalk and Bayfront Walk wrap all around Mission Beach and Mission Bay for leisurely walks and bike riding for several miles. Rentals available down the block.

Enjoy the relaxing bayside environment on the deck with a BBQ. This bungalow has a fully equipped kitchen with all the essentials. As well as a gas grill on patio.

Enjoy spectacular views while strolling on the Bayfront Walk or the Ocean Boardwalk, ending up at one of the many eateries for a leisurely breakfast, lunch or dinner.

Sunbathe, swim or surf at the beach. Rent a jet-ski, boat or paddle board for a fun relaxing day on the bay. Enjoy a sightseeing cruise around the bay on the three decker Paddlewheel Steamboat starting at the Catamaran Hotel, on Sail Bay. Stroll down to the Roller Coaster at Belmont Amusement Park on the ocean.

Just a few of the many things to do on foot from the bungalow...

Free wireless Internet. TV with streaming

1 parking space behind the bungalow for a medium sized car

Perfect location for a beach vacation. Steps from the bay and just a short walk to the ocean. We had a fabulous stay and enjoyed nightly strolls along the bay.

Great location, needs some love

Great location. Really close to ocean and bay beaches, waterfront trails, restaurants, groceries, coffee shops - pretty much everything!Unit had everything we needed. Inside, doorknobs need replacing - we struggled to get in and out of the bedroom and bathroom! Overall, a good stay for our week in SD. Thank you!

Amazing bungalow!

Such a great spot for a getaway! The bungalow is small but clean and very comfortable. Loved the patio out back and the beach chairs — it’s literally maybe a 15 second walk from the beach and 3-5 minutes to delicious restaurants. There’s a washer/dryer as well as a hose for rinsing off before going in the house. Cory was very accommodating of an evening checkout for a reasonable price, which I really appreciated. Would stay again!

This was the perfect place for my husband and I to stay during our honeymoon. We went to the beach, and spent lots of time on the bay. Cory texted before our stay and was very kind. We didnt have any issues during our stay. Definitely would stay here again. Thank you Cory!

Adorable little cottage. The location was perfect. Fast easy walk to bay or beach! The home was very clean had what you needed for the stay. Can get a little noisy at times but overall not bad enough that would make your stay terrible.( I hate noisy locations.) I would rent this home again.

Wonderful stay.

This is a wonderful place to stay and super close to the beach and bay. The house comes with everything you need to cook at home while vacationing, just bring your own food!! My only complaint is the bed needs replaced. There is a body impression pretty bad on one side of the bed but for the price I’ll still give the place 5 stars.

For a small/tiny house, this is very well thought out inside. Everything is purposeful and decorated nicely. The master bed inside the room makes it a little tight but that would be my only gripe and not really because the bed was very comfortable. host was very good about communicating and our stay was perfect.

Perfect Vacation

Amazing location and the coziest cottage imaginable. All the amenities you need are included. We had a wonderful time choosing between the beach and bay. Beautiful sitting area out back with BBQ. The perfect way to end the day. We will definitely return soon! Cory was great and easy to communicate with. Highly recommend!

Great Location

Perfect location for two people for Mission Beach. Property is well maintained with plenty of amenities. Bed is big and comfortable, kitchen is well stocked, and bathroom is lovely. Location is perfect walking distance to the ocean, bay, local restaurants, and short walk to Pacific Beach. Unfortunately, We had some bad luck during our stay. The bicycles were stolen the day before our arrival...which forced us to rent bikes, and the dryer stopped working. Corey was very good in her communications and effort to get the problems resolved. We did experience pretty loud neighbors on both Friday & Saturday evenings until about midnight...but perfectly quiet during the rest of the week. Overall, I would not hesitate not recommend this location...and Corey does a wonderful job assisting with your needs.

spring break

We had a wonderful time at the bungalow. It was perfect my husband and I and 12 year old daughter. The location was fantastic. We loved being able to walk to the water in two different directions. My husband is an avid runner and he enjoyed the close access to the boardwalk and other trails. The house was clean and had everything we needed. Cory was great to communicate with. I would love to go back again!

Great Location. Steps from Bay and Ocean Beaches!

Cory is a great host. Her house is nicely decorated, very clean, and had everything we needed and then some. The location is perfect, right in the heart of Mission Beach and just steps from the beach on both the bay and ocean sides. Lots of good restaurants within easy walking distance. We will be back!
