Amanda’s VRBO was perfect for our family vacation in San Diego. The location is excellent. 10-20 minutes from everywhere you want to go and in a really quiet neighborhood that felt very safe. The space itself was really quaintly decorated making it welcoming and homey. Very clean! Great beds for all four of us. High ceilings make it feel big. We loved it!

I was really surprised at how great if a location this is. I was prepared for traffic since it was a weekend in the Summer, but it seemed like we always ended up going against traffic. We didn't have any problems finding parking either.

Great location!

Wonderful stay for our spring break in San Diego. This property is centrally located to everything we wanted to do... the zoo, sea world, Coronado, La Jolla, Torrey Pines, etc. Never more than a 20 min drive (as long as you don't hit traffic times). Home was comfortable and had everything we needed. My teens loved the roof even though the igloo was down due to a wide storm. Would for sure recommend!

Perfect stay!

My husband, our 7-year-old daughter and myself enjoyed this lovely house January 2025. It was centrally located by the airport, zoo, Sea World and La Jolla beach. It felt very safe to walk around the neighborhood and there is a delicious authentic Mexican restaurant about 15 minutes away on foot. The host was very accommodating. It was a great stay!

suited my needs

The property is just wonderful. The property is very comfortable. My son is in the Navy in San Diego. He wanted some home cooking. I made a casserole. The kitchen was stocked with all of the pots and pans that I needed. The only issue that we had was locating the entrance to the property. The entrance is in alley with a different number on the gate. I received my welcome packet on the day of our arrival. We had been traveling from Upstate NY all day. So we had the Vrbo address. Also, with it being dark outside, it was difficult to recognize the house from the pics that were posted on Vrbo. To be fair the host did mention the alley entrance with the different house number on the gate. After traveling all day , we just found that all very confusing. However, again, after we figured out the entrance, we had no other problems with the property. We enjoyed out stay there and would stay again if with visited San Diego again.

Great location, enjoyed our stay

The home is located exactly where we wanted to be to visit the museums and not too far to reach the beach. Was shocked how quickly we could get to the zoo. Probably saved us tons of time not having to navigate through CA traffic. We had a wonderful time and appreciated the house. The house is well setup and quite comfortable. It’s clean and nice to find someone that doesn’t cheap out on the little stuff such as toilet paper. The only slight issue was parking on the street but it’s not bad.
