Nancy's Riviera Villa: Bayfront+beach+parking

Nancy's Riviera Villa: Bayfront with direct beach access, bikes, and parking!

Below you will find details about our 1 bed/ 1 bath home, Nancy’s Riviera Villa in Pacific Beach.

Yes, you CAN have it all! This extra large 900 square feet bay front condo features unobstructed 180 degree views from the living room and private balcony. In March of 2021, we completed a full remodel. Throughout the condo there is all new luxury vinyl plank "driftwood" flooring installed on the diagonal, accompanied by natural stone and framed mirror walls to set off Nancy's extensive shell collection, displayed on specially lit glass shelves.

The dining/game table with 4 swivel chairs sits right by the sliding glass doors which open 8 full feet for capturing the feeling of dining "al fresco." Dimmable recessed lighting lets you have as much or as little light as you want as do the convenient remote-controlled blinds. Relax in the swivel recliner or settle in on the new sofa after a long day of sightseeing. The 50 inch smart TV featuring YouTube TV streaming channels sits above a reflective crystal fire-glass natural gas fireplace creating a comforting and romantic ambience. A queen Murphy bed easily pulls down from the mirrored wall right next to the sliding glass doors, giving you the sensation that you are sleeping over the water. Wake up to the soft morning colors and watch the sea birds play at the water's edge. Make some coffee in the Keurig (K cups provided) and sit out on the balcony that hangs over the sand to watch as the bay comes alive with the UCSD women's rowing team cutting quietly through the glassy water and early morning walkers and joggers pass by on the boardwalk below. If additional sleeping room is needed, the back of the sofa folds down and the bottom half slides out and pops up to make a 70" X 70" square bed in front of the fireplace and TV.

The open style kitchen with a bay view features cherrywood cabinets, stainless steel appliances, crystal blue and turquoise geode glass tile backsplash with natural quartzite countertops and a 'no hands' faucet. All the amenities you need for cooking and eating at home have been provided and three bar stools sit at the kitchen counter. There is a large desk/working area across from the kitchen.

In the bedroom, you'll get a good night's sleep on the new high-end king hybrid mattress. The bed is set on an angle against a custom rock corner wall with quartzite shelves. The 43 inch smart TV features YouTube TV streaming channels. A ceiling fan and dimmable ceiling lights add to your comfort. There is an optional portable AC unit in the bedroom closet that can be set up for those very rare warm nights when the usual breeze off the water flows in from the desert instead (Santa Ana winds).
The renovated bathroom features dual sinks set in turquoise quartz countertops, a heated toilet seat with bidet features and a large oval tub/shower combination. We have installed three grab bars in the shower/tub and 1 grab bar next to the toilet for your safety, convenience and accessibility.

There is a laundry room on each floor with credit card or coin operated front loading washer and dryers and a trash chute. It's just 25 feet (or 12 steps) down the hallway. The half-underground parking area has designated parking space(s) for each condo and the cabinets in front of our condo's parking space hold plenty of beach chairs, boogie boards, sand toys, umbrellas and coolers. We provide two beach cruiser bikes for riding on the miles and miles of boardwalk around 4000 acre Mission Bay Park and the 3.5 mile boardwalk along the ocean.

Riviera Villas Condominiums is a 22 unit building situated on the quieter East side of beautiful Sail Bay (the loveliest part of Mission Bay)! You will have a magnificent view of the sunsets with the activities of the bay in the foreground; kite-boarders, small sailboats, water skiers, catamarans, etc. Yet, you are only 12 minutes from San Diego's bustling downtown historic Gaslamp area and Little Italy, both with their fine dining establishments, 1.5 miles from SeaWorld, and within 15 minutes from the lovely Balboa Park with the famous San Diego Zoo and it's fabulous collection of museums and botanical gardens.

It's just a 10 minute stroll around the bay over to Pacific and Mission Beaches with their wide boardwalks to watch the surfers, play in the waves or catch a sunset. On a cloudless evening you might even catch a glimpse of the elusive green flash just at the exact moment the sun sinks into the ocean.
Guests have access to the entire condo, a coin-operated laundry on every level, and the parking garage.

Last Minute Booking Policy:
If a guest books with us directly or on any OTA such as Airbnb and VRBO, within 72 hours of arrival, verification credentials are required. By making a payment on the reservation, the guest agrees to comply with our last minute booking policy. 

To properly vet a guest with such short notice requires the following; a “selfie” photo specifically of the booking guest’s face and holding either a Driver’s License, Passport or State ID photo under their chin. We are just looking for a name to match and the photo on the ID to match that of the person in the selfie. This can be sent by email or text to our company email address. Additionally, we need to confirm guest details such as payment, contact information, applicable check-in time, number of guests and ages, any pets, etc.

This process is required, and if a guest refuses to comply then the reservation will be canceled. We have found this procedure to be successful in avoiding fraud, and protecting all parties! We appreciate your cooperation and we are available to help with any questions.

🐾 Pet Policy: Pets are NOT permitted at this property. Guests who bring a pet that is not a service animal will be fined by the HOA.

Rate Policy: Prices change on a daily basis so the rates you see today may be higher or lower when booking!

Age Policy: We do not typically rent to guests under the age of 25 or large parties. Please contact us prior to booking to see how we may accommodate your group.

After booking:
We manage properties on behalf of our owners. Upon confirming your booking, we will send you a rental agreement for your upcoming stay which you will need to complete. This agreement reviews our terms and conditions, house rules and policies, and what to expect of your stay. We will also contact you within 24 hours of the booking to obtain contact information and to address any questions or concerns you may have regarding your upcoming visit. The check-in details will not be shared until the rental agreement has been signed, payment has been made, and the guest has connected with one of our guest services agents.

In addition to completing our electronic rental agreement, you will also be required to participate in our identity verification process. The Verify Hub service is offered through Autohost; an intelligent guest screening software that automates ID verifications, background and credit checks, security deposits and more, helping to improve guest experience and safety. Please note: for the credit card verification, a $2 hold will be placed on the card to run the report. This hold will never process and will fall off automatically within 7 days.

Property Appearance:
Vacation rentals in San Diego are for the most part, second homes for the owners. Therefore, some furniture or decor may differ from what is pictured because the owners needed or wanted to replace something. Professional photos are expensive and we can not re-photograph the rental every time something is changed but we do maintain the listing content with any notable furnishing changes especially related to sleeping arrangements. (*Please note: We do not give refunds because a piece of furniture or artwork has changed)

Property Responsibilities: 
If you have never stayed in a vacation rental before, we are not a hotel, WE ARE BETTER! We offer many of the same luxuries of a hotel with the comfort and space of home to share with your whole family. Our property owners are our friends and we wor
