Perfect place on the beach

We usually stay on the pier once a year as a family getaway. This was the cleanest & most spacious place we’ve stayed. They had everything we needed. Plenty of towels, chairs and beach items, and kitchen was well stocked. Large table inside and great patio space outside. Great location! Thank you we had a great time!

Wonderful property!

The property was wonderful! And just as described. Super close to restaurants and the beach. Loved the outdoor patio. It had an abundance of chairs along with umbrella for shade. Was perfect for the family to gather. Plenty of extra towels and pillows which was really nice to have. Having assigned parking was a great luxury. We can’t wait to come back!

Weekend Getaway

Condo was perfect. Perfect location walking distance to sand, ocean, restaurants, bike path and marina. Super clean. Owners made it stress free. We visited with our 4 teens kids to celebrate my husband’s 50th birthday. It was a great memorable stay.

Prefect Location and Great renters

My weekend getaway with my family was in a perfect location in the Balboa Peninsula. Everything you need, from Balboa fun zone to bars, restaurants and shops are within walking distance. Jeff and Stephanie are very attentive and made our stay very welcoming. Their home was very clean and cozy and had all the amenities needed for a great stay. The patio was a favorite for us and has a great view of the beach. Our stay was a 10/10 and I thank Jeff and Staphanie for renting to us

Nice stay at the beach

The appartment is as described. Very well located to the beach and shops. The kitchen and living room are spacious and well equipped. The bedrooms are nice although the masterbedroom bed could be a little bit too small for large people.

a very nice place and in a great location.

Very awkward key situation. I suggest a better system for providing the key, versus mailing it in an envelope that can rip open and let the key fall out. The key lock box in the garage is hard to see and the keys do not fit well into it.

This was another wonderful vacation at Sandy Toes Retreat. We love the location, the dining, and of course the beach that is only a few steps away. We strongly recommend you consider this as a vacation destination - we will most definitely be back!

Perfect Condo on the boardwalk

Beautiful condo! It has everything you need. Right on the boardwalk. Nice big patio. Perfect spot to grill have a glass of wine stare at the ocean and people watch. You all right near cute shops, restaurants, ice cream shop and coffee. I spent my 50th birthday with my family and it was perfect. We would definitely come back!!
