The BEST of the best on Mission Bay!

Come join us for the best of the best on the sand in Mission Beach. Our beach house has unobstructed views of Mission Bay and you can enjoy the nightly summmer fireworks show from the large private deck.

The master bedroom (aka Captain's Quarters) has a comfy California king bed and a bathroom with a shower, jacuzzi tub, bidet and walk in closet.

There are two more bedrooms down the hall, the Crew's Quarters with a comfy queen bed and the Mermaid room with a comfy queen bed. Off the hall are both a guest bathroom and a full bathroom.

The kitchen is a cooks dream with a panoramic view of the water and all the amenities you will need, including built in appliances.

We are located just down the sidewalk from the Catamaran Resort where the Bahia Belle and William D Evans (both sternwheelers) dock nightly. This property is right on Sail Bay across from The Aquatic Center! There is a private elevator that services this property. We also provide a laundy room with a washer and dryer.

We welcome you to come experience it for yourself!

The kitchen is more than equipped, the view is amazing. The pictures online don’t really do it justice. It’s located perfectly between the bay and the beach wonderful restaurants within a block. I can’t say enough about this place. The bay is calm and swimmable. Looking forward to our future third trip back!

Second stay here, love the views from deck/patio : morning sunshine and evening sunsets, fireworks at night! Stayed a different week this year and lots more little kiddos around and below us so not quite as calm and relaxing on the beach below. Spent more time beachside as a result. Love this place and being on the bay .

Cannot say enough good things about this property

The property is a third floor unit overlooking the beautiful Mission Bay. It is perfectly located within easy walking distance of numerous restaurants. It backs up to a large bayside beach and is only a block away from the ocean. The unit is very spacious, very clean, and has all amenities you could ever need. The owner, Susie, is super responsive and courteous. It was a perfect vacation!
