Family of 6 who loves mission/Pacific beach. We've stayed in mission beach twice a year or more for a lot of years and love it. We've never stayed this far north however. We were surprised to find that this area has many fun activities right outside our doorstep like spikeball meets, outdoor movies and jr lifeguard every morning during our July stay. Our unit was the upstairs north unit and it had a great ocean view from the kitchen. Although I would stay again, nothing is perfect. The unit was very tight and had deferred maintenance issues. We thought that we would have garage parking but ended up having to park at a nearby hotel which was a 20 second walk, so not bad, but confusing the first day. The garage was an absolute disaster area just piled high with junk. Such a waste of space and not a good look which made it impossible to store anything. The hot tub was really a nice spot to hang out when it was hot, but it doesn't really seem to work. Hot water has to be added manually as the hot tub can't keep up apparently. Some basic organization, of beach stuff, the garage and the hoseoff area would go a long way...also buckets at each door for rinsing feet. It is common to see properties in this area with millions where the owner won't spend a few thousand dollars per year to keep up with simple things. It's strange, but typical. Again, id stay again, but hope some constructive criticism might help everyone.
