This vacation rental is one of the best I’ve stayed in. The location is about 15 minutes from anything you’d want to go see, the rooms are comfortable and the kitchen is well equipped. We enjoyed the privacy of the patio and the host was gracious and happy to lend us children’s toys and beach gear for our stay

The space was nice and cozy, and we especially appreciated the terrace, which gave my son plenty of room to work on his robotics skills for his competition. It's rare to find a place that feels both stylish and practical for the whole family.Would definitely stay again and highly recommend to anyone looking for a unique, well-appointed retreat!

Absolutely wonderful stay! Before we arrived, Amanda reached out a few times to ensure we had everything we may need. The location was clean, parking was easy, and she thought of all the odds and ends. Things like beach towels, sun hats, games and other basic things that you'll want in San Diego but don't want to pack and haul with you is readily available. Highly recommend
