Relaxing and convenient stay

I stayed with my family for 11 nights, it was one of my best stay. The property manager Naomi was super sweet lady. She always accommodated my special requests. I haven’t met anybody like her in my VRBO experience. The house had all the things which made my stay as comfortable as my home. Looking forward to come back here in future!

Nice house close to beach and attractions

We had a great week with our 6 children at the house. The home is very clean and seems to be recently remodeled. Naomi, the manager, was very helpful and responsive. We were surprised a the convenient access to the beach and all the attractions downtown. The home is also very close to a Von's grocery store and a Ralph's store. It is also close to movie theaters. The neighborhood is very quiet and the neighbors were quite friendly. A couple of them stopped on their walks to say hello to our children. The home is also close to at least two nice parks that we used for picnics. All in all we highly recommend the property.

Perfect Location

This property was perfect for us! It was east drive to beaches, downtown, and the Del Mar area for our soccer games. Neighborhood was quiet, clean and safe. I was able to get my daily walks in! Many stores and food places, including a high end mall, all within 10 minutes. Naomi was great to work with… kind, caring, and prompt in responding. Appreciated the email check ins after our arrival.

Great location and lovely backyard

This house worked great for our group of 5. It was convenient to all we wanted to do and was plenty of space for us. We spent a couple of afternoons sitting in the backyard watching the hummingbirds. The tenant isn't necessarily loud, but he is up all night. This could be a problem for light sleepers.

Great Family Home!

The home was excellent and as described. The location is perfect - 10 minutes to the beach and quick access to the freeways. At the same time, it’s snuggled in a quiet neighborhood, where you can relax after a hectic day. The home was clean; the kitchen has everything you need including a barbeque grill right off the kitchen. A bonus for me was the tv room in the garage. As an early riser, it provided a terrific location for me to work without bothering the rest of the family. Naomi is very responsive and easy to work with. We will be staying here again!!!

We had a great time in San Diego staying at this lovely house. There were plenty of beds and couches, a good size kitchen with the basics, 2 TVs so different groups could watch what they wanted, and nice patio space. We were surprised by the studio apartment that is also on the property, but had no issues at all with the resident. Overall, we had a great time at this house and would stay there again!

We have stayed in probably a dozen rental houses in San Diego and haven't found one we want to stay again at until now. The house is clean, up to date and modern. The little sandbox was a nice addition for the kids and the additional living space in the garage was great for the family as well. A great neighborhood as well. We look forward to renting this house again soon. Thanks for the great stay!

Great Place in a Quiet Neighborhood

This was a nice place to stay for our beach holiday. The price was affordable and it was just a few minutes from the freeway and La Jolla Beach. It was also close to many other beaches and places in San Diego. We had 10 of us and there was plenty of room to relax when we were all there. The secluded back patio was nice. Not that it was a big deal, but it would have been nice to know there was an attached studio apartment when booking. We definitely would book this place again.
