Thanksgiving Weekend Special! Balcony Bayfront with direct beach access and parking!

Below you will find details about our 1 bed/ 1 bath home, Ginny's Riviera Villa in Pacific Beach. NEW FLOORING AND PHOTOS!

Ginny's lovely condo up on the top (4th) floor features a breathtaking 180 degree unobstructed, panoramic view of beautiful Sail Bay. The almost floor to ceiling, wall to wall windows and sliding glass door in the living room lead out to the balcony, with a table and chairs for enjoying the view. This is the only floor which provides a view of the entire ocean horizon as well as the bay. There is a king bed in the bedroom, a comfortable queen size Murphy bed that folds down from the wall and a queen size sofa bed for additional guests. The kitchen with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, is fully equipped with everything you need for dining in. The living room has a plush carpet, gas fireplace, large flat screen TV and that unbeatable view! The spacious bathroom has dual sinks, a large oval soaking tub perfect for bubble baths with a shower. There is a coin operated laundry room about 30 feet down the hall.

The Riviera Villas are situated on the quieter East side of beautiful Sail Bay (the loveliest part of Mission Bay)! You will have a magnificent view of the sunsets with the activities of the bay in the foreground; kite-boarders, sailboats, water skiers, catamarans, etc. Yet, you are only 12 minutes from San Diego's bustling downtown historic Gaslamp area with its fine dining, 1.5 miles from SeaWorld, and within 15 minutes from the lovely Balboa Park with the famous San Diego Zoo. So, you can have it all!

Enjoy your coffee on your private balcony as you watch the boardwalk come alive. Right below, people are on the boardwalk riding bikes, skating, jogging, and just strolling at leisure. Take a stroll or ride our two provided beach cruiser bikes around the bay and if you like, cross over to Mission Beach with its wide boardwalk to watch the surfers or catch a glimpse of the green flash at sunset.

Vacation rentals in San Diego are for the most part, second homes for the owners. Therefore, some furniture or decor may differ from what is pictured because the owners needed or wanted to replace something. Professional photos are expensive and we can not re-photograph the rental every time something is changed but we do maintain the listing content with any notable furnishing changes especially related to sleeping arrangements. (*Please note: We do not give refunds because a piece of furniture or artwork has changed)

*NOTE: This home is in a residential neighborhood and, as such, is a NOISE SENSITIVE property. Respect must be shown for the property and neighbors at all times.

Additionally, we need to confirm guest details such as, payment, contact information, applicable check-in time, number of guests and ages, any pets, etc.

This process is required, and if a guest refuses to comply then the reservation will be canceled. We have found this procedure to be successful in avoiding fraud, and protecting all parties! We appreciate your cooperation and we are available to help with any questions.

Would go again
After getting through all of the instructions and codes for this, that, and the other thing, just to get going in the unit, we thoroughly enjoyed the condo. We were within 15 minutes of everything we wanted to do while there giving us lots of time to relax and enjoy sitting on the balcony which was calming, despite all the (surprisingly quiet) activity all around, including sailing, water skiing, beach volleyball, dog walking, etc.. Great for people-watching! We loved it and have discussed going back next year.

Laidback Baytime
We will be back! - Location was great- we were able to bike everywhere we wanted, although I would suggest the unit have a bike tire pump easily accessible, as well as a wrench to adjust the bike seat up/down. - View was refreshing- enjoying a cup of coffee off the balcony was great in the morning and watching all the volleyball games in the afternoon was entertaining. - Construction and landscaping noises were annoying. At the time of our visit the unit next to us was being renovated, so we encountered a lot of pounding. Every morning we were woken by the sounds of mowers and weed whackers as well as the sounds of road construction and grinding (which we were informed of prior to confirmation of unit), but still unpleasant. - Unit is dated in some aspects- squeaky security door, rusty and difficult sliding balcony door/screen door, but still well taken care of, clean, and pleasant. There was a minor ant issue in the kitchen, as long as one was diligent with the dish soap they could be corralled. - Codes, codes, codes. I highly suggest limiting these or at least making it so they are all the same, but good thing I took a screen shot of the orientation guide to keep them handy/accessible. - Untimely text communication offering. The texting service provided was lacking. We had no major issues, but obtaining a response 4-5 hours after posing a question was not helpful. For more immediate response, call.

Location is great but the building is old
The property management is so nice, it was easy to understand the complicated checking due to location of the building. The place is dated and has a smell of the old building when you first enter the condo. Even though at the front door says no shoes floor was so filthy it made our feed very dirty. Place needs better cleaning for floor and maybe fresh painting for the smell. This place definitely needs more improvement.
