About this property

Eco-Friendly Mount Soledad Pad with Views and Heated Pool

180* views of Downtown city lights, Mission Bay & Ocean, Mission & Pacific Beaches. Private, heated pool, award winning GREEN home completely renovated for energy efficiency, water efficiency and indoor air quality .. all w/ a Mid-Century Modern touch.

Welcome to the Mt. Soledad Beach Retreat!
*Elevated up from the beach riff-raff, but still close everything you want *Killer sunsets served daily *Backyard is a true respite (you won't want to leave) *Completely remodeled inside/out

THIS HOME IS COMPLETELY DIALED IN
This mid-century modern home has been completely remodeled and re-imagined to make the highest and best use of the space.

INSIDE
+Master BR features the most comfortable gel top memory foam (yet still keeps the springs for the desired firmness) mattress you've slept on while away from home. The floors are a diagonal cut, dark wood w/ custom bath en suite calling would be travelers for a spa-like offering by means of its deep soaking tub, rain head shower & magic wand. The patio doors open to the private backyard right from your room where you can chill to your favorite music and hang out on the deck, lounging poolside bed, or taking a plunge in the heated pool.
+2nd BR is on the main floor, has oak flooring, glass paneled interior french doors (w/ built in shades for privacy) & 2 single beds w/ brand new mattresses.
+3rd BR is the overflow spot -or- the "bonus room." This room is downstairs with forced heat & A/C, offers another queen size bed with the same killer mattress that's in the master & 70" TV! It's the coolest spot in the house, and while the grey wood floors are equally tranquil on the eye, the recessed, dimmable LED lighting & ceiling fan keep your rest cool as well (Planning note: This room is not continuous with the main home, as you have to access it by leaving the front door and re-entering from its own patio door. It's important that you consider this for groups of 5+ who are planning on utilizing this bonus 3rd bedroom, as that might not be for everyone. If you have any questions about it, please ask first before booking!)

DETAILS
*Electric Car Charger Available
*Contiguous-slab Marble counters w/ custom dimensional marble backsplash tile. *Stainless Steel appliances
*Hardwood, small plank red oak floors in open concept living areas for warmth, feel and acoustics *Oversized, Limestone tile floors in kitchen, halls and baths *Both baths feature Limestone wainscoting, custom rain head and wand to compliment deep, soaker tub and modern wall mount fixtures and commodes. *Drenched in natural light with 3 solar tubes, floor to ceiling wood clad patio sliders to the front and French doors to the rear and 15 dual pane windows. *A/C & ceiling fans to chill *8ft Redwood horizontal and white-washed fence for ultimate privacy, while "chillaxin" in the elevated daybed to your favorite tunes before taking a dunk in the heated plunge pool.

CONSIDERATION
The home is all to yourselves, we are 100% available should a need arise or question come about, please be conscientious of the neighborhood. It is very peaceful and tends to turn down after dark. Out of respect to our neighbors, music or partying late will not be welcome and could result in fines being assessed.

THE 'HOOD
Being on the sand is cool, but any local will tell you that it can come at a steep cost of the full-time noise in all hours of the night. This home is situated like a hybrid, in that: You can imagine still being right in the heart of it all, but elevated just up enough where you get the peace and silence of a safe, well insulated neighborhood with killer views of the best that SD has to offer!
While the breathtaking sunsets will steal your heart (and clog up your Instagram page) the mornings from your balcony might be your favorite time of day. Overlooking your quiet neighborhood perch, coffee/tea in hand and the healing smell of the marine layer blowing off, you can watch the sunrise over Downtown & The Coronado Bridge while watching it light up the Coronado Islands off Mexico. By mid-day, you put on some good tunes, grab something fun to read and relaxing to drink, and retreat to the backyard for your own, private, heated pool & pergola covered daybed. After a respite, the beach is only a quick snap away where you can beach cruise down the world famous Mission Beach Boardwalk, rent a board & paddle out at any of the 4 major surf breaks right out front, or just chill and watch the beautiful people walk by while you work on your tan year-round.

LOGISTICS
Hungry? Walk to eat at any of the many award winning restaurants and beach bars w/in a 1.5 mile radius including our favorite: "The PB Local."
Also important, this is located in the foothills of Mt. Soledad, which is technically still in Pacific Beach, but you are very close to world famous La Jolla. A quick, 5 minute car ride over the top of the mountain and you are right in the village to enjoy one of the most special communities in the entire county to explore.
Back to the pad, if you want, you can grill up dinner by the pool with the stainless steel BBQ. Or, if you missed the Sunset from the beach, elevated up over everything from your front balcony are some of the most epic sights known to (wo)man! From late Spring to early Fall, you get a front row seat to the Sea World Fireworks blasting nightly over Mission Bay.

HomeAway Smart Phone App:
We request all of our guests download the HomeAway App to their smartphones. We will do most of our communications through HomeAway but feel free to phone us if there are any urgent matters. Please let us know if you do not have a smart phone so that we can communicate mainly through phone once you have arrived.

4 pm Check-in time (or, later)
10 am Check-out time

Please let us know in advance what time you expect to arrive and depart.
Check in and check out times are strict unless prior arrangements have been made. Exceptions can be made for a nominal extra fee only when there are no other conflicts in the cleaning schedule and with other check ins and checkouts.

Check-in procedure:
For your convenience we do a self-check in. On the day of your arrival we will provide you with (1) set of keys for two doors, and a code for the third. Please be discreet and do not discuss the code outside of the residence. Once you enter please send us a message through the app letting us know that you have arrived and that the place meets your expectations.

Check-out procedure:
For your convenience we do a self-checkout. Turn off the pool heater, lights & A/C. Take out the trash & do your dishes (It's fine to have the dishwasher running when you leave). Gather up the soiled linens and towels, place them in the hamper, and we’ll do the rest. If you tracked in any sand from the beach please sweep or vacuum it up. Close the windows and shut the door securely when you leave. Send us a message notifying us that you’ll be checking out, and we’ll provide specific instructions on how to leave the keys in the lockbox, then.

Not A Party Crib:
This is NOT to be rented as a party house. This is a family neighborhood and is generally pretty quiet at night. Quiet hours are 10 pm until 9 am. No underage drinking allowed on the premises. The neighbors all have our phone number and if they call us to complain about any noise issues or excessive people arriving we will kick you out immediately (HomeAway does allow hosts to remove guests who do not follow our published house rules.) We require the names of all of the registered guests upon booking. There are to be no overnight guests not originally registered for the booking.

No Smoking:
Please note, this is strictly a non-smoking rental. If you are a smoker this may not be the right place for you. You may NOT smoke inside or outside on the patio (and yes, this includes Marijuana). We will keep your deposit plus charge you any additional cleaning fees to get the smoke smell out.

No Cooking Pungent Food:
If you have any questions about what's pungent, please ask in advance. Seafood, Curry, Popcorn, etc. We realize having access to the kitchen is one of the great benefits of HomeAway'ing, but if it makes the house stink then it's not fair for the next guest.

No incense or smelly candles.
No pets.

Respect the 'hood:
Feel free to enjoy the space, but please be considerate of neighbors and listen to movies or music inside, or at the pool, at a respectful volume. If you can hear it from the street or alley, then please be courteous & turn it down.

No wet feet:
When coming in from the pool please towel off before entering the home or you can ruin the wood floors.

Infants and Children:
We love children & want you to know that they are more than welcome as our guests. This means that children of any age, even infants, are counted as guests in your guest count and we have a max limit of 6. Please let us know in advance the ages of all children & whether you have any special needs we could help accommodate. Please note the space is NOT guaranteed to be baby proof or childproof. Please inspect the space when you first arrive & move any choking hazards out of your child's reach, and note the front balcony gap under the glass. It is your responsibility to watch your children at all times.

Liability & Damage:
Your staying on our property acknowledges that we are not liable for any injury to you or your guests while on our property. If anything breaks, just let us know BEFORE checking out to preserve a + review & arrange to compensate.

Heated pool was actually warm with good outdoor seating. Nice large doors for great views Simple fix: Needs new curtains in the living room that actually close well and a way to charge phones in the 3rd bedroom as there is no outlets. Maybe a surge protector? Safe area

If you are looking for a great spot near it all in San Diego this is a perfect option. Close proximity to the 5 means you can get around quickly, but also tucked off far enough to still be a quiet and peaceful stay.

If you are looking for a relaxing and peaceful place to stay…this is it. We were treated by a spa-like aromatherapy that set the tone for our trip. The house was open and welcoming and the view was amazing! The pool in back was perfect for an evening swim. We had everything we needed and will definitely be coming back!

Great weekend stay

Stayed here for two nights and it was perfect. The property is maintained very well, and the communication with the property manager was prompt and professional. The view is just spectacular, way better than even the pictures show. There's about 75 degrees of the view that is ocean view. Would definitely recommend, and I will definitely stay here again.

Quick but fun trip

The property was very clean ! It was so close to everything!! The communication with Jesse was amazing and he was helpful during the whole stay and very accommodating. My only note would be to families with young kids that the 3rd bedroom is downstairs from the main house so you have to walk outside and up the stairs to get to main house to go to bathroom. But the house is clean and beautiful !

We had a wonderful break from the winter here. The house is very clean, with a great view out the front deck of the ocean. Our kids loved the pool. And the location is close to everything - the Zoo as well as La Jolla and restaurants. Jesse is a responsive and courteous host. I’d definitely return!

Pros & Cons

Stayed 3 nights for a 3-generation girls trip with my mom, sister and 2 daughters. PROS: House is beautiful, comfortable and well located. The beds are lovely and the pool is great. Jesse is very friendly and easy to work with. The views are gorgeous. CONS: Half the trip spent with no working fridge (Jesse sent a repairman) But we arrived to a warm fridge and had to use a styrofoam cooler for 2 days. No cold drinks or ice, etc. Came home on day 2 after all day at the zoo exhausted, but had to clean up a huge mess from the repairman who left warm, expired food all over the counter for us to clean up. I paid over $1800 and felt like we were glamping for most of it. Also, there's a neighbor who blasts extremely loud music until after 10pm. We had kids trying to sleep and couldn't bc it was so loud. Definitely NOT a quiet street. Overall 50/50 trip. Beautiful house but not what we expected or paid for. Jesse felt terrible and did what he could to mitigate the inconvience.

Awesome property, everything was as advertised. The only thing we weren’t aware of, and could totally be our fault not reading the listing well enough, but one of the bedrooms is disconnected from the rest of the house. Not a big deal, but with children it’s something to be aware of!! Overall great stay!!
