About this property
The Beach, Bay and Belmont Park right at your feet-Mission Beach
This Mission Beach Bungalow is perfect for a small group of 4 who want to get away and enjoy a fun filled vacation in Mission Beach near all the attractions. This property has the perfect fenced patio, one off street parking space provided, located 1/2 block from Mission Bay and 1 block from the ocean. If you are looking for a beach getaway, this is the perfect property for you!
Mission Bay Park, Belmont Park, San Diego's historic oceanfront amusement park and let's not forget to mention the beach, are all right across the street. Restaurants, bars, coffee shops, beach equipment rentals and markets, are within walking distance. You can rent or bring a bicycle and take a cruise along the boardwalk to find your perfect spot on the beach. There are several bike paths in the area, including one to Ocean Beach!
The Dover Beach Bungalow is cozy, clean beach house that was built in 1942. The bungalow is 720 square feet and with only 4 people staying there, allows plenty of space for everyone to relax. This property provides a comfortable place to relax after your daily adventures. Lounge on the couch and see what is available on cable TV, or maybe start a new series on Netflix instead. During commercials, you can update your Facebook on your cell phone or laptop using the secured Wi-Fi that is provided. If the weather is just too good to be inside, enjoy dinner and friends outside. There is a large table with seating for 6 on the front patio along with a gas BBQ available for you to use if you wish. After you load up and start the dishwasher, check your clothes to make sure you didn't spill any BBQ sauce on them. If you find some BBQ sauce on your clothes, it is okay, just throw them into the washer and dryer located in the garage. When heading out to the beach or the bay, don't forget to grab the boogie boards, beach chairs and beach towels provided for you to enjoy.

Perfect house for our family of 4. Walking distance to the beach and bay. We were able to walk to the bay and watch the SeaWorld fireworks at night. Love all the out door seating! 10/10 recommend!
Adorable property, easy to get to with cute restaurants and shopping within walking distance. Loved having 2 parking spots. Neighborhood was quiet with a lot of other rentals. Minor annoyance was that we were in the flight plan from 6am to 10pm.
Having grown up in San Diego and remembering how Mission Beach was once known for charming beach houses like this one, I enjoyed my stay very much. Life can't get any better with the ocean and sunsets on one side and a peaceful bay on the other side. This house has a front patio and a private back patio. A private parking space and a garage that includes beach toys, chairs, and a washer & dryer. Inside is spacious but cozy, clean, and comfortable. Walking distance to iconic San Diego beach bars, Belmont Park, restaurants, and markets. Megan was personable, very responsive and helpful. I would love to stay again!
Although the exterior photos show a little more curb appeal than the actual property, the inside was very nice and clean. The property looks all original inside, aside from paint and cleaning updates over the years which adds to the appeal of the property. Being in there is like stepping back into a simpler time and perfectly fits the vibe of the Southern California beach community. If you want nice and new, this property probably isn't for you, but if you want clean, comfy, and convenient and wish there were still more of the original bungalows left in this neighborhood, then this is the place for you. Parking is fantastic, with a driveway spot and a garage that would fit a small car. The garage is extra convenient for storing bikes, surfboards, etc. This property is ideal for 2-4 adults or two adults with 1-2 kids.
We enjoyed our stay in south Mission Beach. I will start by saying that we have never stayed in Mission before, so I do not have any reference for comparison. There were a few things that were fantastic about the property. These included the house being very clean, ample parking, lots of beach toys/supplies, a great location, and excellent communication with Tammie from Windansea. While the house was comfortable, a downside for us was that everything in the house was old. We were not expecting a totally upgraded house, but felt that some money could be put into things like a new bathroom and furniture. Everything worked at least. We would be fine staying here in the future, but will probably spend more money to stay in an upgraded place. Overall it was a nice stay, and would recommend it.
It was a lovely stay. The house is older, but everything was in working condition. Location is excellent and the garage and parking spot are a big plus. Check in was easy. All the information came right on time.I would stay there again.
My boys enjoyed the stay & location very much. Thank you. It was tough on them though w/ no AC. When I stopped by I felt it could use a little sprucing up! Thx Patti
The location was very good. Communication with the host was excellent. The house was cozy and clean, but could use several updates. The sofa needs to be replaced. It’s such a cute home in a desirable area with just a little bit of investment. It could become a five star rating for sure. The lack of air conditioning was only a minor problem, but the fans provided also need to be replaced as they are very old.
House is in a great location between the lagoon and ocean. Had all of the beach toys you need and a wagon to haul them. House needs lots of updates. Bed is very creaky, screens are ripped or missing and the furniture is different than what’s in the pictures.
Property is old and could use some maintenance. Most of the windows are missing screens and the couch is very uncomfortable. The kitchen is small but nice. We loved the big garage and additional parking space. Only steps from the Bayside beach! We enjoyed staying here very much!
The cottage was nice but it was extremely hot with one box fan and 1 standup. Would recommend sometime of AC for next years visitors. We sat outside for a few minutes. If I would have had a broom and somewhere to clean the yard. It is too bad that hasn't been done for a long long time. It is between extremely nice cottages where their yards are extremely nice.
Nice location on the quieter side of mission bay beach area. Easy to walk around but also easy to drive to other places. House had all the basics we needed, was great to relax and be peaceful while on vacation.
This was perfect walking distance to the bay, right across the street to the ocean, near the best coffee window and super close to Belmont Park. Was even able to check in a little early which was great.
