It was a lovely stay. The parking was a bit tricky due to the garage being too small to park in. But there was usually a spot along the side of the building to park. As long as you were not the first one to park because if someone parked behind you were stuck. The apartment was perfect for our needs. One think to note, is that not all of the outlets worked. I would definitely stay again. Perfect spot right on the beach with the ocean sounds lulling you to sleep.
We come everybyear to Mission beach has a family. Great location and great time.

That sounds wonderful! Mission Beach is such a great spot for family trips. We're so glad to hear you had a great time and enjoyed the location—looking forward to having you back next year!
Rich’s boardwalk is the perfect little vacation rental in the middle of Mission beach. It’s just a few steps away from the boardwalk for an easy walk for a late night snack or drink. The roof top patio while small is perfect to just sit, relax and enjoy the beautiful sunsets.

We had a great stay!
The property was as advertised and great for our family of four. The parking space, as they mention, is a bit tight, but we kept that in mind when choosing our rental car and had no issue at all. Beautiful location - was wonderful to wake up every morning right next to the ocean. We would not hesitate to stay here again and recommend it to anyone!

This is such a great little cottage, with a great view and location! The amenities were more than enough for us to enjoy the beach, the place was clean, and the team was responsive whenever we needed anything (especially Laura!). It wasn't swanky, but that wasn't needed. It fit all of the needs for a nice little beachside getaway! We will be back!
We really enjoyed our stay at this property.
The view of the ocean and beach from the living room was incredible. Listening to the sound of the waves each night was calming. Rooftop deck offered a wonderful view as well, great place for a evening cocktail and morning coffee. Location was fantastic...able to walk right out the door and you're on the beach!
