Old School Oceanfront Beach Bungalow

LOCATION! LOCATION! LOCATION! We are all about the oceanfront view and direct beach access. Our apartment is ground-level on the busy Mission Beach Boardwalk. It’s best for easygoing folks who are planning to spend their days on the sand and in the water. Our place has a vintage and rustic style with wood paneling. Boardwalk passersby can see into the apartment when the window shades are raised. This apartment is not a good fit for light sleepers, pets and guests who would like close parking.
