Only the Beach Club has a pool in the weekly rental catogory in Imperial Beach. In fact there are very few weekly rentals in all of San Diego County that have a pool. You should check the amenities for the unit you rent but if it has any other name than “On the Beach” there is no pool. The Beach Club units are always the first to fill because of the pool and other amenities. When we suggest other units they will not have a pool.

Bath towels, hand towels, and sheets for all the beds are provided. Laundering of those items during your stay are the responsibility of each tenant. Some of the more expensive units have beach towels as well.

In general, the units are not stocked with condiments (ketchup, mayo, mustard, etc.). Most units do leave whatever non perishable items our guests leave. Generally, not always, there is salt and pepper and sugar available, but that’s about it. If you’re planning on cooking in the house you should plan on bringing whatever spices and/or staples you will need for your meals. Most units stock coffee filters for the coffee makers.

We have enough glassware, and dishes to set a table for the number of guests listed. There are an assortment of pots, and pans for cooking spaghetti, and other meals. The cooking supplies and dishes are kind of generic.
