We were there for 45 days, so we got to know the property and the owners quite well. First, Lorne is an outstanding host. Second, the condo at 950 sq ft was a perfect fit for my wife and I and our two dogs. It was nicely decorated with an African/SE Asia motif, and clean and comfortable, albeit not luxurious. Third, it is in south Mission Beach, about a 5 minute walk to the ocean and to Mission Bay, and only 10 minutes to Belmont Park and local restaurants and bars. Fourth, the price for our winter stay was very reasonable, and a great value relative to other nearby properties. On the other hand, the unit may be too small for four or more adults - for example, the dining room is more of a nook, and gets crowded with more than 3 people. In addition, the balcony is a tight fit for more than 2 folks, with pool gear to the left and a grill to the right. Finally, although the condo is close to beach, bay, and the center of MB, it is on the corner with Mission Blvd, the main local street, which gets noisy with motor vehicle and pedestrian traffic, especially on weekends with the windows open. However, overall this is a great and reasonably priced property close to the ocean and the bay for small parties.
