Welcome to one of Mission Beach’s most unique family beach getaways — two separate homes on one property, just steps from the sand, thoughtfully designed for families and friends who want to spend time together while still enjoying space and privacy.

(Effective October 2026, the main house and “Dollhouse” guest apartment are offered exclusively as one combined rental accommodating up to 15 guests. The homes are no longer rented separately.)

Minimum age torent is 25.

In accordance with San Diego law, at no time of day are guests allowed to have loud gatherings, excessive noise or amplified music loud enough to bother the neighbors and other vacation renters!

The property includes:
• Architect-designed main house (sleeps 10)
• Separate guest apartment above garage (sleeps 5)
• Nearly 3,000 sq ft of indoor living space
• 4 outdoor gathering spaces
• Rooftop deck with panoramic ocean & bay views
• Just a 30-second walk to the sand
• Peaceful, non-party atmosphere.
Unlike many large beach rentals, this home comfortably sleeps 15 in real beds — no sofa sleepers, rollaways, air mattresses, or crowded bunk rooms.
The two homes are fully separate and each has its own private gated entrance, making this setup ideal for extended families, grandparents, multiple families traveling together, or groups wanting both togetherness and privacy.
Minimum age to rent is 25. This is a peaceful residential neighborhood best suited for families and mature groups looking for a relaxing beach stay.

    This was a perfect location for our needs this week. super close to the beach with plenty of indoor and outdoor spaces to enjoy our family. The host was very responsive when there was a small issue with the water filter. Billy responded within a few minutes and sent a handyman out to fix the problem. Very easy and helpful. Highly recommend!

    This was a very good location for families that are flying in and then want to go to Sea World, San Diego Zoo/Safari and its museums. Very easy in and out. Plus the beach was lovely for relaxation.

    We absolutely love our stay at this Mission Beach gem! The ocean was visible from the house and it was just a short walk to the beach - a perfect location to be close to the action but enough away to have a little bit of privacy from the hustle and bustle of the actual beach walk.The house is fully stocked with anything you may need (and done so tastefully may I add) - from the kitchen to the bathroom to the bedrooms. We did not lack anything we needed. The lay out is awesome for a larger group - we had 7 women and we all felt like we had a good amount of privacy, sleeping space and hanging out space. We loved that there was a good stock of beach chairs that we could borrow and use - made it so easy to enjoy the beach. The house just has GOOD VIBES and we loved it!

    We stayed at the Whalen house for our escape from the Montana snow. The house was perfect for our family of five and we had room to spare. It was less than a minute from the beach and there were plenty of beach chairs, towels, and toys. The roof top patio was a great bonus and a nice way to finish the day. You won't be disappointed if you choose this house for your stay in Mission Beach.
