Imperial Beach, California
***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.***

Absolutely serene
Wonderful condo. The unit was bright, clean, spacious, and comfortable, and the view from the living room and master bedroom was spectacular. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
The view of the ocean really is amazing. That being said, the whole beach was closed due to pollution. The whole reason I booked this place was so I can go to the beach that was right outside my door. Instead we had to drive 45 minutes away to a clean beach. The condo was spacious and pretty clean but needed a few repairs such as the blinds in each room. There was a safety issue with the windows. They open outward at the bottom of the window which is about 6 inches from the ground. There's no screen and we were on the second floor. Our toddler could have easily fallen out the window. We had to make sure they were closed and locked. Unfortunately one of the windows had a broken lock. So we couldn't let our toddler out of our sight which was stressful. The pool was too cold to swim in. The elevator kept breaking down. There was no parking for taller vehicles. I did like that they had carts for you to use to take luggage to your room from your car. TV's worked great. Beds were comfortable. I really like the oversized couch in the living room. Will I stay here again? Probably not.
We have been coming to these condos for 20 years, family favorite!! Great location, easy walk to multiple places and pier!
Condo was very nice and clean, property manager even met us check in early, super nice guy! Property had access to pool, grills, hot tub and the beach. Will be staying again!
The location is right on the beach. We loved hearing the ocean and feel the breeze. It was gorgeous. The place is a little dated but the beds were comfy and everything worked as described. The jacuzzi didn't work and I sent a request about it but never heard back. The place is within walking distance of lots of shops and restaurants. We would love to go back!
The property was lovely, our condo was gorgeous and the view was exceptional. I will definitely bring my family back in the future.
The property was beautiful and very clean. We love this unit. Only downside is the water quality was poor from Tijuana sewage and the water was not ok to swim in. Disappointing being so close to the beach but having to drive elsewhere to get in the water. Other than that this place was amazing.
Nice clean rooms and comfortable beds. The beach was very quiet which was nice. The reason for the low star rating on the location was because of the proximity to the Tijuana River that dumps sewage into the ocean so the bacteria levels were to high to swim in the water according to the state acceptable levels. The other reason for low stars was the experience we had after dark walking on the beach. Received unprintable profanities to go home from some person hanging out in the shadows.
Right on the beach, the pool is supposed to be quiet and you'd be fined if you were loud at the pool. A little dated on the amenities and was hard to find the correct parking spots because the paint was so faded.
Perfect location!! Beautiful beach and pier views. Spent hours watching surfers and sunsets. Lots of restaurants, bars, breweries in walking distance. 18 min drive to Coronado, zoo and airport maybe 20 min. I was concerned that it is very close/adjacent to Tijuana, but was a very safe neighborhood. Very walkable My only criticism would be, there was no salt or pepper, no coffee filters, not a piece of paper. Most vrbo places we stay leave a few of these things that the prior visitor left for the next. A small thing. We sent someone for morning coffee at the nearby vendors daily. We made Christmas Eve dinner there, and there was ample cookware, which was great. Also 3 gas grills (in line) , were clean and worked great. Overall, a great find and I highly recommend!!!
The property was in an excellent location! Didn't understand why there were limited supplies in the condo. Two rolls of tissue and one roll of Paper towels for four woman was not enough. At a minimum we atleast expected salt and pepper to be supplied.
This property was absolutely AMAZING!!! Very clean; exactly what we needed as far as space; convenient and gorgeous location! Couldn’t have asked for a better stay!! Thanks so much for allowing us to stay in your lovely home!!
Location was great but the whole condo unit needs remodeling. Broken blinds, chipping paint, dirty carpet. The entire outside of the building is so run down. Most of the balconies are trashy. One even had a toilet on it. We have stayed here several times but the quality is going way down. Will be looking for a new condo for our vacations. Really sad to see
Overall this was a great rental property with an excellent view of the beach. It was walking distance to the pier and many coffee shops and great restaurants. The condo was a perfect size for our friends (2 adults and 1 tween) and our family (2 adults 1 tween). Love the comfy couch and tv. The interior was clean but a bit dated else it would have been 5 starts.
Would definitely recommend
We were only here for a couple of nights, but loved this place and the neighborhood in general. The views from the house are exactly as advertised. The house is well equipped and everything you should need. The neighborhood has lots of places to eat and drink, including a couple of local breweries. Overall a good beach town, with all of the basics shops you would expect. Great access to Coronado from this area is you are interested. No complaints here, would definitely stay again!
Beautiful place! Convenient location Condo was spacious and well equipped Quiet except when children were staying above us. Master bedroom and bath especially spacious and lovely
We were very pleased with how tidy it was. Just a couple concerning things were regarding the broken shutters.. it gave the entire place lose a little bit of elegance. The paint was peeling from the toilet seat, so that made it look kind of nasty, almost like you didn’t want to sit on it. Other then that, the directions were very clear and getting through; in and out was a breeze. Thank you so much! Will definitely consider this again!
Beautiful view!!
Our entire family enjoyed our stay in 206. The views of the beach and sound of the ocean waves can't be matched. It was such a peaceful trip and we look forward to coming again!
