Other Details to Note

Bedrooms are snug with king beds and limited floor space—perfect for relaxing, but not ideal for spreading out. 🚗 Parking Notes We have two single car garage spots for this unit. Most mid-sized SUVs and smaller should fit but please verify your car measurements to be sure. Our garage door opening is 94" wide and 180" deep. However, it's common for cars to stick out of the garage about 12-18", leaving the garage door open (so it acts more like a carport). Please plan accordingly. Please be courteous to neighbors and do not park in alleys, in front of neighbors’ homes, or in red zones (even just for 2 minutes!) — you will be subject to fines and towing by the city. For alternative parking: Mission Boulevard has street parking available (please double-check signage for street sweeping days). You can also find free overnight parking just a few blocks away on El Carmel Street, especially near the Rowing Club area. 🧺 Shared Amenities Shared laundry is located on the side of the house. You’re welcome to use it during your stay, just be courteous of others who may also want to access it. 🏖️ Beach Gear Disclaimer Guests are welcome to use any beach toys or chairs found on-site, but availability can vary. 🧘 Noise & Neighborhood Please respect quiet hours after 9 PM. This is a peaceful, family-friendly neighborhood, but the homes are close together, so it’s not uncommon to hear neighbors or nearby activity at night (if you are a light sleeper). Please check out our other listings for additional availability and occupancy, or feel free to send a note if you're interested in booking multiple apartments for your stay for larger groups.
