Mermaid Crossing - Panoramic Ocean View, Pool, Hot Tub & Rooftop Deck

Mermaid Crossing, on the 9th floor, is the most beautiful one bedroom/one bath condo in Capri by the Sea, the only oceanfront high rise building in the beach area! In May of 2020, we completed a 4 month remodel during the Coronavirus down-time. The remodel was coordinated by a talented designer and an equally talented father/son contractor team. We gutted the kitchen and put in new cabinets and quartz countertops with a "waterfall" effect spilling the quartz over the side of the counter. There are also all new stainless steel appliances. The bathroom has a new tub/shower combination with beautifully tiled walls, and a new cabinet with quartz top. Throughout the condo is all new Pergo-style "driftwood" flooring installed on the diagonal, mirrored walls, a rock wall with an electric "mood" fireplace that also provides heat on the South wall, a 65 inch TV, beautiful ceiling beams and a ceiling fan. The large convenient desk area easily pulls down and converts to a queen Murphy bed with a view. If you need additional sleeping space, we have provided an extremely comfortable new high end queen sofa bed. The bedroom also has a new top of the line king mattress, a 55 inch TV and ceiling fan. There are all new furnishings throughout.

This condo features floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room to maximize the breathtaking views of the ocean, recently replaced with all glass railings for an uninterrupted view of the Pacific Ocean. You will love your stay in this conveniently located condo in the heart of Pacific Beach. It is within easy walking distance to many restaurants and shops and just steps to the sun and sand! The kitchen is fully equipped for dining at home with seating for 5 and a spectacular ocean view. The condo sleeps 6 very comfortably or 3 guests in each single sleeping arrangement.

NEED MORE ROOM? If you would like to travel with extended family or other families, we have three 1-bedrooms and three 2- bedrooms in this building; three in a row on the 9th floor, 909, 910 and 911 plus 1005 and 1010 right above them.

Capri by the Sea offers every amenity you could want and need for your stay in San Diego. A single parking space is included with your reservation. The rooftop offers 360 views of Pacific Beach, with BBQ grills and picnic tables and lounge seating. A heated (80 degrees) pool and hot tub are located on the ground floor behind the Capri building and are accessible with your key fob. A washer and dryer (coin-operated) are located at the South end of the hallway just outside the condo. A trash and recycling chute is located on the North end. Your key fob gives access to that condo's floor, lobby, rooftop, garage and pool area. Check-in instructions sent via email will provide more details about how to obtain your keys/lock code and fobs.

Vacation rentals in San Diego are for the most part, second homes for the owners. Therefore, some furniture or decor may differ from what is pictured because the owners needed or wanted to replace something. Professional photos are expensive and we can not re-photograph the rental every time something is changed but we do maintain the listing content with any notable furnishing changes especially related to sleeping arrangements. (*Please note: We do not give refunds because a piece of furniture or artwork has changed)

Such a beautiful place to stay! My husband and 3 boys and I enjoyed our time immensely. Boys enjoyed boogie boarding each day and the view of the water/beach was breath-taking. Well-appointed kitchen, plenty of bathroom towels and beach towels for a family of 5 to use for 5 days. We plan to return!

We loved staying at Mermaid Crossing. The location is wonderful; the view is extraordinary. We walked to great spots to eat and loved the dog-friendliness of the community. The condo itself was comfortable and clean, with everything we needed. We loved using the Murphy bed, so we went to sleep and woke up looking at the ocean. Watching those surfers never got old. We would definitely stay here again!

The view of the ocean is perfect. Being up on the 9th floor you don’t even hear the people on the walking path or down on the beach. We loved watching the ocean tides and even when a storm rolled in, we were mesmerized. We saw parasailing and windsurfing along with dolphins and pelicans. The sunsets are amazing. The accommodations were very nice and we enjoyed literally everything! We highly recommend this property.

Great unit right on the beach
Overall our stay was very good. The unit was exactly as pictured (very nicely updated!!) and communication with the host was good. There were plenty of towels (bath and beach), we enjoyed use of the boogie boards and everything in the kitchen was great. My 9-year-old especially liked sleeping on the murphy bed. Instructions for everything from check in to check out were very detailed (other than pool info - see note below). The building itself shows its age but the unit was very nice. Overall we were very happy with our experience. There are just a few things that could have made it even better... - the parking spaces are extremely small. I think it would be good to advise people to rent as small of a car as possible in order to fit into the space. We had a mini van and it was tough. The rental car company tried to upgrade me to an SUV and I insisted on the minivan instead - thank goodness! I really don't think I could have parked a full-size SUV in the parking spot. - better information on location of the pool. Instructions said it was "behind the building" but really it is about 100 yards up the road. Once we found it, it wasn't a huge deal. But the first time we were wandering around looking for it. The hot tub was great but it really didn't seem like the pool was heated as advertised. Other swimmers said usually the pool is warmer so that was kind of a bummer.

Whether it was watching the surfers or kite surfers or the sunset or moon rise. A gorgeous view! Nancy's was quick to respond when our windows were dirty to impede that view! We loved the stay.
