This house was great for our family reunion. The location was close to a lot of activities we wanted to do such as Sea World and Balboa Park. It reflected the photos on the site so we knew what to expect. It was clean when we arrived and had pretty much anything we needed for the week. We would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a house for 12+ people. It exceeded our expectations so much that we might come back again!

We were visiting The Retreat with our three sons at the end of a holiday spent in hotels. This spacious house provided all the amenities we needed for a relaxing break. Pool was very generous size and hot tub a treat! Each of our boys enjoyed their own room with individual TV s. House conveniently located for our various visits -San Diego Zoo, Little Italy, Coronado,Mission Beach,La Jolla etc.

This house is perfect for a relaxing, comfortable stay in San Diego. We took a taxi to/from the airport. We were able to have great family dinners by the pool and smores by the built in firepit. My business partner and I were there for a conference, but were able to bring our families. There was plenty of room for everyone. It was a great working vacation! Thank you Mark!

We stayed at the house over Easter and had an excellent experience. Jacuzzi time, really nice kitchen, big screen TV's around the house, and enough rooms (we didnt even use all of them) for the family. Mark was quick to respond, and everything was at the house already, even Ketchup ! highly recommend.

Mark the owner had exceeded all of my expectations. We originally tried to book our trip with another house in the area that was a little less expensive. We quickly learned that paying a little extra for a better home and a more accommodating home owner was well worth it. I had booked the previous home two months in advance but received a call (10 days before our vacation) that the owner had double booked the home and we were out of luck. The previous owner didn’t even apologize or offer us any alternative options. It was at that time that I came across Mark's home. There was a night and day difference working with Mark versus our old home owner. Mark was responsive, easy to work with and an all around great guy. He took the time to understand our situation and was overly accommodating to our needs. We had a little glitch with the hot tub (which we caused) and Mark took time out of his Saturday to fix it for us. Again he really made his home feel like our own. Thank you Mark. In regards to the home we couldn't have asked for a better place. It felt like our own little oasis for the weekend. It was newly remodeled, spacious, and clean. The home had the best patio that I have ever seen. Our group especially liked the fact that the home was secluded enough that we never felt the neighbors were an issue. We truly felt as if we had a perfect home. I highly recommend this home.

We had our two sons and their two children for a December holiday. The weather ranged from hot to cool, but each day was wonderful. The house was big enough for everyone to have space. The upstairs master was more than we expected. Comfortable beds and dramatic furnishings. The kitchen was very well equipped and provided a place to relax and enjoy cooking together in the evenings. We would recommend it highly
