Quiet, spacious family vacation stay!
We were a family of 9, including a baby, that stayed for 3 nights. This home is as described with a well-maintained pool and hot tub, and multiple pool toys, that we enjoyed! The neighborhood is quiet and peaceful. It is a drive to get to local shops, restaurants, and the beach. Andrea and Tim were quick to respond to any questions and needs. Thank you for a relaxing stay!

Everything you want in a vacation home
Such a wonderful stay for vacationing. The house was clean and just as described. We really enjoyed the outdoor pool and fire pit. Andrea, the host was timely and responsive of all questions throughout. Note, you do have to pay a small fee in addition to have pool heated. It was worth it. Note: The cul de sac was super quiet.

Family enjoyed the pool and spa the most. The only thing that we didn’t realize that all the bedrooms are upstairs. Traveling with an elderly parent kind of mad it difficult. Would stay again

Great spring break spot
We came out for a week over spring break with our 6 year old and had a great time. The host was extremely responsive to questions before and during our stay, and quick to action when we accidentally locked ourselves out of the house one day. The location was great - we were worried we may be too far out, but it's an easy drive down to the zoo/downtown and equally easy access to beaches. There's also some sneaky good restaurants just a few miles south, so you don't have to go far to find some fun spots.The house was clean and the back area was excellent - we took advantage of the pool and hot tub every day, made smores at the fire pit and cooked a few of our meals on the grill.For our little family, this was a perfect spot and a great stay!

Perfect Family Getaway Destination
This property was the perfect setting for a family getaway to San Diego. I rented this property for a quick long weekend to celebrate my birthday with my husband, our one-year-old son and my best friend. This house is centrally located, so it was easy to get to all of the key attractions, including Coronado island, La Jolla Beach, the San Diego zoo, downtown and so much more!The house was very well appointed, was incredibly well-maintained and the pool and hot tub were great for early morning, afternoon, and evening fun after a day of exploring. The neighborhood was very quiet and there’s an amazing local fruit stand just up the street with some of the best produce I’ve ever tastedMy only criticism would be that the beds were incredibly hard, so if you don’t love a firm mattress, this may not be the best sleep you have ever had. That said, everything else was so exceptional. I couldn’t help but give a five star review. Would highly recommend this to anyone.

Family was very happy with the place. It has everything you could ask for when travelling with kids. One tip for other renters, be careful parking on the driveway. Low rise cars will have issues with the slope.

The house was clean on the surface but could use a deep cleaning. Blinds, ceiling fans, woodwork were all very dusty. Outside area was full of dead leaves. Even the house rules book could use a wipe down or be replaced. The house itself is a little worn down but serve it’s purpose. The pool with heat was a nice asset for our grandson. Thank you for the wine and sharing your home with us.

Amazing vacay in San Diego!
My family of 4 (husband, 10 and 7 y/o boys) and my sister's family of 3 (sister, BIL, 3 y/o girl) all stayed at this amazing house for our spring break trip to San Diego. The house was spacious, well appointed and has a gorgeous backyard with a firepit and heated pool. The main floor has two living areas, each with their own TVs, one powder bathroom, a dining room and kitchen. The appliances work well and the owners have left a lot of dishes/pots/pans/appliances, its really convenient to make your own meals. We even did our easter meal here! The upstairs has 4 bedrooms and two full bathrooms. The only downside to the upstairs layout is the master suite has 1 full bath attached to it, leaving the other 3 bedrooms to share the other bathroom most of the time. The back yard has a gorgeous patio with a fire pit (we did smores almost every night!) and a heated pool. The house itself is very conveniently located to the zoo, the beach, seaworld and not too far of a drive to legoland and the safari park. We never really had to deal with traffic, it was really nice! We had a fantastic vacation and would stay here again in a heartbeat! I highly recommend this rental!!!
