Mimi's & Nana's Beach House

The place was nice and comfortable and clean. Parking was a bit tight, we aren't used to such close parking but not bad. There was enough room for all of us. 6 people. The patio was cute.

Honestly this was really disappointing. I did not expect a 5 star stay but I feel the listing was misleading.

Overall it was a pleasant stay. There were a couple issues. The coin washer would take the money but their was no start button or way to turn it on. Instructions would have been nice for that specific washer if it actually works. The bedroom lights would randomly turn on during the night if we had the fan going but had previously selected for the light to be off. Comfortable, nice place with fun beach stuff and had everything we needed except for the washer working.

Based on some previous reviews, I was a bit nervous about this place—but it turned out to be absolutely fabulous. The location is unbeatable—just steps from the beach and Belmont Park. We were literally walking barefoot to the sand because it was that close!The living space was perfect for our family of four. Both boys had their own beds, which was a great bonus. While we didn’t spend a ton of time indoors, the condo had everything we needed. Plenty of towels were provided, including beach towels, and there’s a spot just down the block where you can rent umbrellas, chairs, and boogie boards.Like most beach stays, it’s tough to keep sand out entirely. We used the hose downstairs to rinse off and a towel outside to brush off the rest—just part of the beach experience. There’s no AC, but with overhead fans, box fans, and open windows, we were comfortable even in mid-July.The unit has been nicely renovated—modern, clean, and fresh. Having a garage for parking was also a huge plus. Overall, this was a wonderful stay, and we’d absolutely book again on our next visit!

The house is fine for the price and location, but we were very unhappy that there was construction going on in the downstairs unit the whole trip. We were not made aware of this either prior to or after booking. The construction lasted from early morning until 6pm every day of our trip except the final day, when they had planned to work but waited when we told them we'd be trying to check out during the construction time. We had to dodge around the construction debris and workers as we went to or from our unit. This was especially unfortunate as this is a beach property and we were going to and from the beach with kids in flip-flops and barefoot, which is not ideal in an active construction site. We attempted to ask for details on the construction plan with the property manager, but they never provided useful responses for us to work with.On the minor complaints side, the property management company was also terrible at communicating details such as on site supplies available (towels, beach toys, etc.).Additionally, the dryer was not working when we tried to dry our washed clothes.

Easy check in, everything about the unit was exactly as advertised. Parking in the garage is a bit tough because the alley is very narrow (don't have a large rental vehicle!) Location can't be beat - incredibly close to Mission Beach, Belmont Park, restaurants, etc.

Deck needs replacement but location great.Spacious accommodation.

Perfect spot for our family of 6. The garage even fit our Yukon! Just steps from the beach and lots of shops & food options, plus only a short drive to Sea World and other destination spots! We had internet connection issues the first evening and they were quick to respond and got it all resolved for us! Great service, clean accommodations. Would definitely recommend staying here and will be back on our next stay in San Diego!

Not much to recommend other than location. The outside has little curb appeal, broken down with a leaky roof. Poor communication with local management over several issues.

Do NOT stay here! Other than location this has to be the worst VRBO rental I have ever booked. We could not pull into the provided garage bay as there was a construction van in our designated spot. We were not informed of the construction prior to our arrival and the hammering and sawing noise was so disruptive we could not stay at the rental to complete our work. There were termite droppings or frass all over the bed, nightstand and floors in the bedrooms! The shower water smelled like sulphur and the walls in the bathroom were dirty. The covered outdoor patio was constructed of PVC piping with a plastic corrugated ceiling and the straw walls were decaying. The garage code worked for the first 2 nights of the rental and then stopped working and we were unable to access our car the last day! Vacasa, the rental company was unwilling to help and indicated that the local management office would be notiified. They never responded. The keypad codes provided were incorrect for the entry door. Thankfully we put in a shortened code and it worked! It was so frustrating not having ANY local contact person to come over to the rental to assist us! The pictures provided of this rental on VRBO are a misrepresentation of the actual rental. Absolutely disgusting and unacceptable.

Great stay. Clean place and awsome location

Excellent location for a quick walk to beach, restaurants, arcade, and convenience stores. Close drive to other San Diego attractions. Traveled with a teenager and 10-yr-old. Plenty of space in the apt.

Awesome for the price really enjoyed sun room and deck
