This isn't just a beach condo. It's a turnkey short-term rental with a verified track record. Generating consistent Airbnb revenue for four consecutive years, 207 Elkwood is the rare coastal investment that delivers lifestyle and returns. Situated just one block from the Pacific Ocean in the heart of Imperial Beach, this single-level 3-bedroom corner condo its in one of San Diego County's most in-demand vacation rental markets, where beachside demand stays strong year-round. Why guests book it again and again: The light-filled open layout, wood plank tile flooring, recessed lighting, and coastal aesthetic photograph beautifully and check every box on a traveler's wishlist. The upgraded kitchen with stainless steel appliances flows into the living and dining areas perfect for families and groups. Three spacious bedrooms and two updated full bathrooms comfortably accommodate the larger parties that drive higher nightly rates. The covered patio overlooks a nearby park with ocean breezes and sunset views. A private gate provides direct beach access the kind of amenity that earns five-star reviews and repeat bookings. New AC keeps guests comfortable year-round, and two assigned parking spaces (including one covered gated spot) eliminate a common pain point for coastal renters. The location sells itself: Bordered by the Pacific Ocean and the Tijuana Estuary Reserve, one of Southern California's largest coastal wetlands guests come for the beach and stay for the experience. Walking trails, birding, biking, the iconic IB Pier, local breweries, seafood restaurants, farmers markets, and year-round community events keep occupancy high and reviews glowing. Whether you're adding to your short-term rental portfolio or making your first investment, this condo comes with the hardest thing to find: proof it works.
