Great location, views were beautiful. The condo was very clean. We used the bikes a lot to ride around town and to the boardwalk. Lots of great restaurants near the condo. This was a great home base for exploring San Diego.

We absolutely loved this property. The view was gorgeous, and the location was perfect. We walked everywhere! We loved being on the Bay side. It was much quieter and had less tourists than on the ocean side. We will definitely look forward to staying here again!

The property was well-kept and clean. Great location. The only drawback was that there was no air-conditioning. All in all, we had a great experience

We had a great stay here although we gave it a 4 in that check in requires multiple steps and a bit cumbersome. One of the shades that exposes 1/2 of the view on one side was broken. There was dust in the silver wine goblets.

The location is great, with panoramic bay views in a safe area with friendly locals. The nearby beaches and bike paths are well-maintained and relaxing, but these are the only redeeming qualities of this poorly maintained condo. The walls and carpet, which look white in the pictures, are beige and grey, with a large stain mentioned in other reviews. The bedroom windows are grimy—you can scrape grime off with a fingernail. The lighting is confusing and inadequate. The kitchen’s under-cabinet lighting didn’t work. There were no proper bowls for soup or cereal. No pantry, so groceries must be stored on the counter. Burn marks on the ceiling from crown molding lights, and some switches felt hot. The curtains are semi-transparent and provide little privacy; you can see through them at night. The lack of blackout curtains was disappointing since I wanted to sleep in. The bed is too soft causing discomfort, so I slept on the couch. The water pressure is low. The balcony is very close to neighbors; a privacy screen would be nice. The chairs are old and rickety. The walls are thin. While noted in the description, the lack of A/C made this summer stay uncomfortable. Why A/C is not an included amenity is beyond me. I suggest booking in cooler seasons if you dislike humidity. Beware of the fridge’s ice maker and water dispenser, which tasted like mold. In summary, while the location and views are excellent, the condo's condition is lacking. I wouldn’t recommend it without improvements.

Property management was amazing - 5 stars. Very responsive and great communication. Condo itself is in need of significant repairs and upgrades. Wish I would have taken the other negative reviews to heart (they are accurate) and booked a different place. I would not rent this place again.

After having all our 2020 travel plans I really wanted to treat myself to deluxe lodgings. First of all VRBO is only a listing agency. Nancy vacation rentals was really responsible for this unit. The photos reflected what the condo looked at its best. What we got was a broken cord in the bedroom which prevented us from raising the blinds. The sitting bench in front of the bed had large holes on the leather and one leg was loose. The “desk” had no chair. The bathroom had a bottle of liquid soap that was so watered down it didn’t even lather. The shower had no soap. Underneath the sink there were half empty bottles of shampoo, conditioner and body soap from Costco and a variety of other bottles that previous guests left behind. I guess that was meant as the starter kit advertised. There was a dirty coffee mug and two dirty knives in the kitchen. I washed all the dishes, glasses and silverware and bought a disinfecting spray bottle to sanitize all areas. The under cabinet light was still not working even though other guests had mentioned it years ago. The two lower side cabinets were broken and had large marks on the cabinets next to it. The light colored rug was clean but the outer edges were fraying. Stains around the fireplace did not come off. On the bottom of all the windowpanes stucco or paint was peeling. The large blind near the fireplace had three burned looking holes in them. The patio furniture border metal was peeling around the table and chairs. The patio screen doors did not close properly and had holes all over them. The circuit breaker on the right side of the living room was broken so no outlets worked. Some of these issues were addressed and corrected by Nancy’s Vacation Rentals. Most remained unfixed. On the positive side the view was great, the couch was incredibly comfortable and the TV was perfectly tuned and of good quality. On the whole, this unit needs major upkeep that has obviously been neglected for quite some time. I felt very disappointed and cheated because the reality did not match the photos. For the money I spent I would not be returning.

Nice condo in a great location. Great view from the condo. The Mission Bay beach is right in front of the property. Great place for a couple to relax and vacation. The only reason I am giving it a 4 star is because the house was not cleaned in time for our arrival. However, Nancy called me to apologize and was able to get the cleaner in the house within an hour. She explained that this was not normal and was due to a confusion. In any case Nancy and her staff were in touch with us throughout our stay to make sure that everything was fine.

There were holes in the sheetrock, raveling edges of carpet and big dark stains on this white carpet. NO under cabinet lighting in kitchen and ceiling can lights were not bright enuf. The patio chairs and ripped cushions need Replacing. Check-in process required too many steps/locks and codes for locks. BUT... The view from the patio was beautiful.

Pros: The location was great. The view was superb. Kitchen was nicely stocked Bikes and beach chairs a nice plus Cons: Rules requiring no shoes?? Really???? The carpets were filthy! Bed capacity:2. No parties allowed. Under those circumstances is it really necessary to have more than 30 wine/cocktail glasses leaving no room for guests to store their food? “Wipe off counters to prevent ANTS”???? Where are we supposed to put our food (see above) if we don’t put them in the counter? Thermostat was locked. Provided fans but they were so caked with dirt that we didn’t dare try and use them. Every single dish we used had to be washed prior to using. Everything had caked on food grime. It was disgusting. “Don’t put food in garbage disposal”???! Missing screen on living room window. Balcony screens torn in several places and don’t close Most uncomfortable (and cumbersome) bed we’ve ever slept in See thru window shade in bedroom!!!

This condo & location were amazing and I hope to return. I was impressed with attention to the little details in the unit, seemed every time I needed/wanted something like I would find at home - it was there. The overall vibe, beach access, amazing views, provided bikes all made the extra special. This is why have given a 5 star rating. There are some items in the condo that need to be looked after, and judging from the upgrades I already see made (kitchen & bathroom) I am sure they are planned - but nothing that interfered with my enjoyment of this great condo.

The kitchen and bathroom have been updated; storage and countertops great in bathroom, bedroom and kitchen. Very comfortable living room with a wonderful view of the water toward the south and the west. I loved relaxing and looking out at the water. There are a few tweaks that the owner needs to address - better heating for the occasional cold weather, possible replacement of wonky electronics in the microwave door, a thorough cleaning of the light carpet in the entrance of the living room and bedroom. Shades need stronger pulls. These issues were addressed as well as possible by Nancy's Vacation Rentals - very responsive. I would love to return to this unit provided the above issues are addressed.

We enjoyed our stay. The location was good for us, close to all the major highways, and not too far from downtown. The view from the patio was very nice, and the condo was very clean and comfortable.
