LOCATION! LOCATION! LOCATION!
It doesn’t get any better than this! If you are hankering for a beach vacation, you will find fun, surf, sand and quiet relaxation in sunny Mission Beach at Hale Makai (House by the ocean). This one bedroom one bath condo on the Penthouse floor of the Top of the Beach condo complex comfortably sleeps 4 and is just steps from famous Mission/Pacific Beach and Boardwalk. The condo offers a king size bed in the bedroom with 6 generous under bed storage drawers and a queen sleeper sofa in the living room. The bathroom vanity area has just been remodeled with a new cabinet, granite countertop and under the counter rectangular sink. The new tiled walk in shower sports a beach rock shower pan which is wonderful on your feet. There is a newly remodeled, full kitchen with new cabinets and granite counter tops, stove, refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave, garbage disposal, toaster, blender and Keurig and standard coffee maker- even a set of Henckel's knives for the discerning chef. The dining table has comfortable seating for 4. A 43” smart TV with DVR in the living room lets you record your favorite shows while you are out exploring and having fun. The 32” TV in the bedroom lets you unwind from a busy day watching late night shows in the cozy comfort of the king size bed. Wi-fi is provided too, of course. Ceiling fans in the living room and bedroom combine with ocean breezes to keep you comfortable and you can sleep with the relaxing sound of the surf. The lanai offers wonderful views of the ocean, Mission Bay and downtown San Diego with a table, chairs and BBQ for your enjoyment. We also provide beach towels, boogie boards and beach chairs to make your beach vacation hassle free. There are 2 washers and dryers available (for a fee) in the upper garage for your convenience.

The Boardwalk, just steps away on the ocean side, stretches for 3 miles from Law Street in North Pacific Beach to the south Mission Beach jetty. It provides a marvelous venue for biking, roller blading, jogging, and walking. Of course the beach is just on the other side of the boardwalk where you can soak up the sun or frolic in the surf. The condo is only one block from Mission Bay which also has a boardwalk around the Bay. There you can rent an assortment of water toys from the Aquatic Center like sailboats, stand up paddle boards, wind surfers or boats to enhance your vacation experience. At the end of the day, since Hale Makai is on the top floor of the tallest building in Mission Beach, you will be treated to breathtaking sunsets over the Pacific Ocean as you relax on the lanai.

Hale Makai offers under building parking with a reserved space in a gated garage so no worries about finding a place to park. Plus the elevator is just steps from your parking space making it easy to get to the condo without having to climb stairs with your baggage or grocery purchases. But once you arrive you may not need to take your car out again since so many activities and restaurants are within walking distance. But if you have plans to go to Sea World, Legoland, the San Diego Zoo, Balboa Park or any of the other attractions in the San Diego area the condo is centrally located for exploring all the city has to offer. Belmont Park and its historic roller coaster is just down the boardwalk along with many other rides and amusement park offerings. Visit the San Diego waterfront with the Midway aircraft carrier museum, the Maritime museums and Seaport Village. Drive over the Bay Bridge to quaint Coronado and the famous Hotel del Coronado and beaches. Your choices are endless and you are only limited by the amount of time you have to spend in “America’s Finest City”.

We would be thrilled to be your hosts for your visit to San Diego and hope that you will return often to enjoy the warm hospitality that we provide all our guests.
Make yourself comfortable in this condo, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. There's a private balcony. A Smart television along with a DVD player are provided for your entertainment. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker.
Enjoy the recreation opportunities such as a water park or make use of other amenities including barbecue grills.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

Great place and location
My husband and I stayed here for a few days in the beginning of December. The condo was exactly as described. Heather was a great host and there is binder with all the instructions you will need. Location was great to walk to the beach, coffee shops, restautants, and small market. Would definitely return!

Very relaxing and calming. We will definitely be staying there again if possible. My wife was thrilled and we had dinner at Moe's. $300.00 for dinner was ruff though for a stringy steak.

Great One Bedroom Beach Apartment
My husband and our 6 month old stayed at this great beachside apartment. Worked really well for us as there was designated parking, an elevator and patio that gave us great beach sunsets. The ability to walk along the beach or main street with plenty of restaurants or shops was a major plus. Would definitely stay here again.

This is the one to book.
Best views, easy convenient parking, comfy bed, well equipped kitchen, plenty of beach gear, beach towels, easy short walk to the bay to rent kayaks etc…, beach boardwalk is so close and fun to walk or bike around. Lots of restaurants and coffee places within one block or just down stairs. Trader Joe’s less than 2 miles away or Ralphs even closer. Enjoyed sipping coffee on the balcony each morning and wine during sunset each night. 3 nights was not enough we’ll be back. Stayed here with our two teenage kids had plenty of room. Bedroom has tons of storage in the closet and in the drawers under the bed.

Great view of ocean
The property was exactly as advertised. Great location and view once the mist cleared up, but that’s up to Mother Nature. The check in instructions could be simplified a bit, but are still a bit convoluted. The microwave did not heat up what was put into it and had burning electrical smell and some smoke. Response from owner took a few days. We did not use any of the appliances after that.

Not Happy
Was not impressed. Check in process was very difficult. The overall condition of the condo was not what I was expecting. No AC!! That's a show stopper for me. The elevator smelled so bad and the sofa bed was broke and not useable We had to sleep on it like a coach. We ended up leaving and getting a hotel room after one day.

This place is in a very good location. Being on the top floor let you see both the beach and the bay. Belmont Amusement Park and the indoor swimming pool are just a few minutes walk. Having designated parking was a big plus. You can even park a truck and it will fit. There are lots of restaurants nearby. Heather was a very good host to us. She responded to all our messages right away. We will definitely stay at this place again.

Comfortable stay, beautiful views!
We had a great stay! Perfect location and incredible views. For check-in, I recommend parking in front of the liquor store or Mo's while you retrieve the key. If you map 725 Redondo Ct, it will take you directly to the parking garage. Mission Baja Tacos a few blocks down is our new favorite SD Taco spot! Handmade tortillas, yummy carne asada, fish, and shrimp tacos. We stay in Air B&B's in SD 2-3 times a year, and this is probably the best value for the price we have found! Check it out!

Great unit! Well-equipped, view of ocean, perfect location
We really enjoyed our stay here. You can see both the ocean and the bay from the deck, and you are just steps to the beach. No car needed to walk to a large variety of shops and restaurants. Unit was clean and comfortable. We were very pleased with the beach supplies provided. Several good boogie boards and good beach chairs, a cooler, sand toys. So often rentals have sparse and beat up equipment, and we really appreciated what they offered here. We would definitely stay here again. It’s a great change from the hotel experience.

Great location!
This is a very nice clean condo in a small building with underground parking. Locating the lockbox with the keys when you first arrive is a bit confusing since street parking is virtually non-existent while you get the keys from a lock box in an alley. Finding the correct alley is also challenging! We ended up in public parking ($20) for a few minutes and walking around till we found the lock box. The unit is a great size for a couple and has the perfect location right between the ocean and Mission Bay. Be aware that it is NOT air conditioned but there are several ceiling and floor fans. All beach stuff is also provided. We would definitely return next time we are in SD.

The elevator was broken the first two days. Getting both luggage and belongings up three flights of stairs was a challenge. Shower cleanliness was lacking and had the appearance of mold. Even though we knew about unit not having ac the fans just didn’t keep you cool enough. The location is great, can’t beat the 2 minute walk to the beach.
