Location: Coronado, San Diego County, California, USA (Only 2 Blocks from Newly Renovated Coronado Ferry Landing!)
Accommodations: Apartment, 2 Bedrooms + No additional sleeping rooms avail, 1 Bath (Sleeps 2-4)
Keywords: Triplex Unit
This very cute downstairs unit is currently being used as a guesthouse by owners. It is located behind the owner's historical home (Victorian) and looks out to a beautiful well-maintained garden which is home to a large fountain, providing a soothing affect for the soul. The garden will entice you to take your cup of coffee out every morning to be greeted by the sweet smell of "Double Delight" roses or Jasmine.
The unit is impeccably clean since it is only used by family members and guests. It is decorated in beach cottage style with comfortable antiques. Wood floorings throughout, with light blue walls and white trim -- very fresh and inviting!
The property is only a block to grocery stores (Boney's Market and Albertson) and only two blocks from Coronado's scenic Ferry Landing that has been completely renovated to emphasize the breathtaking views of San Diego City skyline - take a picnic basket; find a grassy spot to lay your blanket; eat your dinner & sip wine while you watch the sunset against beautiful San Diego skyline. Owners provide 2 beach cruisers for guests to get around town. During the 4th of July, two shows for fireworks are presented: Ferry Landing and Glorietta Bay. Walk to the Ferry Landing and take a blanket to lay on and watch the fireworks right over your head - magnificent!!!
You will also enjoy the many restaurants that are only a few blocks away (Candela's, Il Fornaio, Peohe's & many more) as well as Coronado's Community Recreation Center which houses a complete gym/fitness center and Olympic size pool. Water aerobic classes are offered for adults as well as other fitness programs that are offered either daily or weekly. And, if you are a golfer, Coronado's community golf course is only a hop, skip and a jump away!

Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 1998
We are empty nesters who live on our property. Our children are all grown and are either doing their graduate studies or already working in their field. We have two grand baby girls that are a joy to us and see from time to time. Our home is a Queen Anne Victorian and is a registered historical house in Coronado. The guesthouse offered on VRBO for rental is on the ground floor and sits behind our historic home surrounded by a lush garden, as we are avid gardeners and ran the Coronado Floral Association and Flower Show for several years. The guesthouse is part of our triplex unit that we restored in early 2000. We converted and designed the bottom unit to function as a guesthouse for our family and aging parents to enjoy during their extended stay in Coronado. It is a very friendly atmosphere and very peaceful and quiet when you retreat inside. We love having guests enjoy our property and to offer them the experience of living in the Village as pampered guest but a true Coronadan! We hope to be able to meet you soon and offer you this wonderful experience!
Why the Owner Chose Coronado
Our property is located on Coronado the most coveted area in San Diego County! It is a beach community but with a small town atmosphere! Coronado has zero crime rate and sits on very flat land so bicycling everywhere is absolutely perfect. Our guesthouse is on the Ferry Landing side (only two blocks) which is opposite the beach side of the peninsula but boosts a never-ending spectacular view of the San Diego skyline. We get up in the morning and go outside to take in the fresh ocean air while we stroll on our tree-lined street pass our neighbors beautiful homes; we enjoy a short walk to coffee houses and then stroll over to the Ferry Landing to absorb the beauty of the boardwalk towards tidelands park. Our location is so convenient to everything! It is near restaurants, farmers market, water taxis and the Ferry to get to downtown San Diego, etc.! We cannot list all the reasons why we chose this side of Coronado Island. But, the beach is also so easy to get to from our side -- only 8 blocks away so you can enjoy scenic and delightful walk!

We did not find out about this property from VRBO. I was referred to the owners by an acquaintance and it just happened that the owners had a few days available and we tried it. This was a great first experience for us to try a private home to stay at and we really liked it. My friend who rented with me is orginally from San Diego and she was very excited about staying in Coronado. I understand that you cannot go wrong staying in Coronado especially at a private home that is very comfortable and nicely decorated. The owners were very helpful and made us feel welcomed. The place is so close to everything we needed including our favorite restaurants, beach, bus stops and ferry transportation. We like the gaslamp district but do not like the atmosphere as much as the friendly quiet town of Coronado so this worked out for us just doing short trips to the gaslamp and staying the nights at this private condo in Coronado. It was very quiet at night just what my friend and I were looking for to relax for a short time. We recommend this place and hope that we will be able to use it again on short notice.
Owner response:Thanks so much for taking the time to provide a review. We enjoyed having you and glad we were able to process your contract and payment very quickly on short notice. You were such pleasant guests who took such great care of our property. We certainly look forward to having you back real soon.

My husband and I rented this property with his teenage daughter and her friend. The house was the perfect size for the 4 of us and the garden view from the patio was gorgeous. This property is within walking distance of most major attractions on Coronado and the owner provides 2 bikes for use during your stay. The property is especially close the the Ferry Landing which makes getting to downtown San Diego especially easy. The description of the home accurate. The property was very clean. The owner was fantastic, providing us with many suggestions for restaurants and places of interest to visit during our stay. Boney's Organic Grocery was the best for breakfast and coffee in the morning.
Owner response:Dear C and B from Columbus Indiana, Thank you for submitting a review. You are model guests and we would love to have you back to stay in our guesthouse. We are so glad you enjoyed Boney's and their organic coffee and pastries in the mornings! We do hope you and your family return and join our regulars every year to vacation again in Coronado. You are now on our preferred list and hope to see you real soon.

Our stay here was phenomenal. The property was set in a beautiful garden area that reminds you of paradise, located near all of the great restruarants in Coronado, walking distance to Ferry Landing with a picture perfect view of the San Diego skyline. The property was exceptionally clean and offers amenities as if you were home. Having lived in San Diego, I would recommend this to anyone visiting San Diego......THIS is the ideal place to stay!
Owner response:Dear VA, Thanks so much for the review, VA. We love having you stay with us; we wanted to make sure you were as comfortable as possible and had a relaxing place to rejuvenate during the Wedding. We hope that when you return, you will return and never leave again to make Coronado your home!

A Lovely Garden Beach Cottage!

Review Submitted: 08/03/11
What a charming find in Coronado! I've been visiting the island for 40 years now and have stayed in many places and this is now my favorite! The cottage is darling and perfect with the lovely garden and fountain outside. Having 2 bikes, a parking spot, use of a washer/dryer, walking distance to grocery store and to the ferry landing was ideal. Easy to walk or bike to the beach and Starbuck's! It was very private and very cozy! We will be back every year! The owners are wonderful... Thank you, Nancy!
Owner response:Dearest Chris, You and your family are so wonderful! We are certainly blessed you have chosen our guesthouse and it is now your favorite! That means so much to us. Thank you so very much for treating our extended home like it was yours. You are always welcome to come back. We cannot wait to have you back again to fill up our guesthouse with warm and beautiful karma once again. We are so looking forward to your visit, but until then we wish you abundant joy and perfect health! Fondly, Nancy.

Beautiful Coronado Island

Review Submitted: 07/18/11
We recently spent a week in this lovely guest house. While a bit of a way to the beach it was just steps from the ferry, in fact, we took the ferry to a ball game. (It was hassle free! No parking. No traffic to deal with.) The ferry also goes to Anthony's and the USS Midway. The beds were comfortable, the linens lovely and the garden serene. The property was exactly if not better than it appeared in the pictures. We had everything we needed close by. The whole island is walkable from the property. There is traffic noise during rush hours but in the end it didn't matter. We had an 11 year old with us and he loved it, too. We hope to visit again.
Owner response:Dear CKS, Thank you for a lovely and factual review of our property! You and your family were just delightful. We are always very happy to hear our guests enjoyed their stay at our guesthouse. You were absolutely wonderful guests who truly took great care of our property and appreciated our efforts in offering a very clean and comfortable environment to enjoy during your vacation. We have you on our preferred guest list and want you to keep us in mind when staying in Coronado in the future. Our warmest regards to you in Tempe! Thanks for choosing us!

we spent a week in this wonderful apartment and couldn't be happier. The Grocery Store is just a block away and there was ample kitchen appliances so we could eat in or enjoy the ambiance of Coronado. There were several great restaurants in walking distance and the Ferry Landing on Coronado was only 2 blocks away. The owner was personable and made sure we had everything we needed for a delightful stay. It was great to have the bikes available as there is such a beautiful bike path from one end of the town to the other. Thanks for a great week!
Owner response:Dear Queenjude, Thanks so much for posting a review. It was such a pleasure to meet you and B, and we are very happy you chose our guesthouse! You both took such great care of our property - you and B are definitely on our preferred guestlist. Hope you had a wonderful time with your family here. We are so looking forward to having you back again real soon! Our warmest regards from Coronado to Grand Island!

Best kept secret in Coronado

This was a very charming unit. To my amazement the unit was just as great as the photos and very clean. Access to the beautiful garden and barbeque made it very convenient and enjoyable. We rode the bikes to tour the entire island, going to places we would have not gone to otherwise. There is much to see on this resort island. This was an unforgettable trip and finding this place at a very reasonable rate made it perfect for my wife and me. We plan on returning next year allowing a little more than just a week stay.
Owner response:Thank you so much for the lovely review, MN and QN! Especially since we know you and your beautiful wife did not want to share it with too many people so our guesthouse can be more available to you in the future. On a more serious note, it will always be a pleasure to rent to you two again. We hardly knew you were there and you left the two bicycles so spick and span clean! Thanks so much for choosing us and we will make sure we give you your special rate when you return!

Just wanted to let you know that we had a great time visiting Coronado and San Diego. Your guesthouse is every bit as nice as the pictures showed. My nephew and grand-niece really enjoyed having the bikes available. I will definitely refer your place to my friends, and you may see my husband and I there this summer! Thank you!
Owner response:Terry, We are so happy to hear your nephew and grand-niece were able to enjoy Coronado and San Diego, and that staying at our property made it a a great time for all of you! We still have August dates available for you and your hubby! You are such a delight and we hope to meet your other half soon!
