Summary:
Located only minutes from everything San Diego has to offer is this bright, breezy home with plenty of space for large families and groups.

Our Review

Stayed here for a few days. House was clean and communication with host was great. Overall it was nice. The only downside was the kitchen was a little dated, water pressure was not the best when both showers were going and there was a fishy smell when we arrived. Overall, it was a fine stay.

Perfect for large group

Amazing property! Perfect for my Bachelorette gathering. The 8 of us were very comfortable. Location is great and rooms are well appointed. Love the outdoor spaces as well as indoor common spaces. My favorite is the second floor living room. Great decorating too. Wish there was central AC though. Overall exactly what my group needed. Very communicative host as well. I would stay here again!

Nice and Comfortable

3 families traveled to San Diego over winter break. The 12 of us fit comfortably, although I wish there were more beds. We did take advantage of the air mattress and it worked great on the second floor. I would definitely stay there again. The location was perfect for visiting the zoo and downtown SD. Thank you.

Wonderful location, comfortable mattresses, beautiful yard!

My family and I loved our stay at this property. It was within 10-15 minutes of everything we wanted to visit during our stay in San Diego. We were a party of 11 and there was plenty of space for all of us and the outside courtyard and balcony’s allowed everyone to have enough space to enjoy the beautiful SD weather. The owners were very responsive to my questions. We’d definitely come back and stay again!

Great place for big families!

Very spacious house and yard in an otherwise crowded neighborhood. We had everything we needed for our 4 night beach trip. The only thing that wasn't working was the bathtub plug. Was a little silly having to use a Ziploc to plug up the water for the kids.

Bachelorette weekend!

Truly was such ann incredible spot! Evan took such great care of us and made everything so easy with our whole check in process and communication throughout the trip. With 10 girls, everyone was very comfortable and had plenty of space to get ready for our different events. The kitchen was well prepped for cooking and we were able to have delicious meals all together! One downside, the backyard had lots of cobwebs and spiders so we ended up not using it as much as we thought we would, but loved the outdoor space upstairs and the grill was great! Definitely would come stay here again!

Our Thanksgiving Holiday

I just want to say that I had the most amazing experience staying at this beautiful home. The kitchen was sufficient enough for all our cooking needs, I loved the layout and decor of the home. Plenty of outside space this home is perfect for social distancing because it’s big enough that you’re not all in each other’s face. The kiss had a ball it was a GREAT weekend. If I could rate this home between 1-100 I would definitely give it a 100. Check it out you won’t be sorry 😁

Excellent vacation home

We went to San Diego to visit family and friends. This was an excellent central location to drive anywhere in San Diego County. We were a quick drive to most of the beaches. Of course, we were visiting during the pandemic, which meant that we didn't get to eat out, but no worries - we had all of our favorite restaurants deliver via Grub Hub. It was easy for them to find, and there was plenty of room inside and out to eat as a family. The property is beautiful and very well maintained. The back yard is an oasis of trees and shade. The inside was very spacious, with plenty of seating and sleeping. I have three children, and each was able to claim their own room - plus an additional two masters. The view from the balcony is beautiful! We will definitely be staying here again.

Big house; clean; good backyard

House was large and plenty of room for our group of 6 adults and 2 children. Neighborhood is residential, but isn't the nicest and I wouldn't want to be walking around it at night. Location is close to Fashion Valley and within 10 minutes of DT San Diego. Place was generally clean, beds were comfy and clean. Overall, furniture did feel a bit dated and the house wasn't super well stocked; for example, there wasn't even a corkscrew to open a bottle of wine. Water filter worked super well (SD isn't known for good water). Great view of the nightly fireworks from Sea World at 8 PM. Owner was extremely communicative and checked in multiple times to make sure things were good. All things said, this is a decent place and I'd stay here if you need a relatively fairly priced place located close to downtown San Diego / Fashion Valley / USD.

A Comfortable home

The bathrooms, bedrooms and living areas were all very comfortable and clean. The outdoor spaces were cute and comfortable. Overall it’s a great house. The kitchen was a little disappointing. The paint on the cabinets was peeling and left residue on the pots, pans, dishes. I did a load of dishes and flatware before we used them because they all seemed dusty and had paint residue on them. For a house that can accommodate 11 guests, a few more plates and forks would be helpful. Overall, a great house and we had a great week.
