OlgaRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Hands down this is probably one of the BEST AirBnB's I've ever stayed in! The place is beautiful and in a heavenly location. There so many cool touches and details in the apartment, we barely wanted to leave but for the ocean outside! Kostas was super responsive and accommodating and a wonderful host.

Sky High Luxury Penthouse

WeiyangRating, 5 stars4 weeks ago
John is so friendly and responsive. Also reply very fast and very accommodating! The apartment is very clean and the view is awesome! Had a good time at the game room downstairs. The pool looks nice, but it was windy during our stay, so we did not use the pool much during the stay. Hope we could catch the game season as we should be able to see the game clearly from the apartment! Thanks very much, John!

Breathtaking Ocean, Bay, City & Petco Park Views

AmberRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
What a gorgeous view of the water and baseball stadium! The windows give you an amazing panoramic view. The bedrooms are on opposite sides so if you are traveling with someone you have separate spaces joined but the common area. The building is lovely and you can walk to restaurants and gas lamp district. Everything was great! Thank you!

Best experience here! Roof top patio with views of both the ocean and bay. Close by amenities and chill vibe. We appreciated the full kitchen and multiple bathrooms. Best part was how close the beach is. There are beach toys and lawn chairs and available towels. This property is a gem. We hope to return one day.

NEW Designer 3BED/3Bath Beach House;Steps to Beach

KyleRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Amazing experience for a young family of 4. The home has everything you need and more. I would highly recommend staying at Harry’s property as he has thought of everything that a family would need during their stay. The location is spectacular as it’s located between the boardwalk and the main road. Beautiful finishes, interior space, 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms and a garage for your vehicle! We couldn’t ask for more. Harry was very responsive to questions prior to our stay and checked in with us during our stay.

The place was perfect for our family which included a 22 month old. The hosts thought of everything one could need! Used the stroller everyday to walk to the beach boardwalk just down the walkway and to Bay boardwalk just across the street. Super clean, comfortable and one of the top AirBnBs we’ve stayed in. Highly recommend!!

3 Levels Of Bay Views! With NEW Updated Baths!

JudyRating, 5 stars6 days ago
This was our second stay at this delightful home. It has the ideal location, just across the walkway from the bay side beach. And a quick walk across the street to the ocean side. The kids played for hours in the sand, we rented bikes and rode all around Mission Bay, and enjoyed sitting out on our porch and watching the world go by. The house is well stocked with what we needed. With three stories there’s plenty of room to spread out, have some privacy if needed, or hang out on the main floor with a great big dining table and comfortable living room.

Very nice condo with outstanding views of the ocean. The place was clean and comfortable. We enjoyed our stay very much and the location allowed us to walk to restaurants and clubs, as well as to drive to many attractions across the city very easily within 30 minutes. Having the assigned parking spot was especially nice. We would definitely stay at Maria's condo again.

We had an amazing stay. Chris was very responsive. The view is incredible. Hearing the waves is soothing. The place is kids friendly with toys and books that are very fun. The area has lots of food choices. It takes just a few mins to be right on the beach. He has a wagon and beach toys. This was a very hassle free, enjoyable stay with our three little kids. No one wanted to leave.

Endless Views oceanfront luxury condo private deck

AndreaRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We loved our stay! The pictures, description, and positive guest reviews are accurate: this is a beautiful, clean condo with comfortable beds and stunning views. It was perfect for our family trip (three people) and could accommodate a larger group, too. The location is close enough to local restaurants/activities without being so close as to hear the commotion. We saw dolphins from the balcony on multiple occasions and even spotted a whale! The host was very responsive to any questions/issues. We would absolutely stay again. Thank you, Swathi!

Ocean Front Mission Beach Penthouse!

MaryLouRating, 5 starstoday
Perfect location whether you are active or inactive. My 84 yr old husband and I were grateful for the elevator and the amazing views from anywhere in the Condo. He could sit on the couch & watch the surfing schools, the families on the beach & those strolling along the cement pathway below, while I could get out & strech my legs & be part of the beach scene. Plenty of restaurants within walking distance, even for my husband who used a cane. Kitchen has everything you need if you want to eat in for some meals. Gated parking & elevator are game changers for anyone wanting to enjoy this area! Perfect for families or old folks like us! Host is an amazing, communicator with helpful suggestions. Highly recommend!

Beach Front Condo - Capri by the Sea - Remodeled

RekaRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Let's just start off with the best feature - the view! You really can't beat it. You are right on the ocean and it's the entire view floor to ceiling. The place was super clean and very comfortable. As a solo female traveler, I felt completely safe and the place felt very roomy to me. I was working and the wifi was strong and it was lovely to hear the ocean waves in the background. The parking spot was the best in the lot. Nick was super communicative and helpful. You're on the north side of PB so it's quieter and not in the middle of it all, which I appreciated but still walking distance to all you need. Drift Coffee is great BTW. Will definitely be back!
