The place was clean and nice and Rachel was great to deal with in all of this. The beds were extremely comfortable and each room has it's own A/C setting which worked out great.I would 100% stay there again and recommend without hesitation. We appreciated the fact that it was a little removed from the congestion and street parking was easy and the neighborhood felt quiet and safe.

We had an amazing time in San Diego staying at Rachel’s house. Perfect for a family of four and our dog - there is an awesome park within a 3 min walk. It’s an older house but we were comfy - especially with the fireplace on during a colder evening. Really great location near beaches, Balboa Park, good eats. The neighborhood was safe and quiet. And street parking was never an issue. Thanks again!

Wonderful Stay!

This house was perfect for our visit to San Diego! We stayed with our two young children and appreciated the extra touches to make our stay easy (step stool for the kids, laundry detergent supplied, among other things). The location was great for everything we did. It was also on a quiet street and we had no issue with parking. The host was always quick to communicate and check in on us. Highly recommend this house!

Nice family house near a great park

Our family of four (2 young kids) had a great time in San Diego. The house had everything we needed as a family. The mattresses were comfortable and the location was central for us. Only a five minute drive to the zoo and enough room for every one. The porch swing was a hit with the kids!

Convenient to airport and zoo. Our family enjoyed the space. The weather was nice so we ate outside on the beautiful patio.Overall space was good. It would be great to have a 2nd full bath. But we made it work fo 4 adults and 2 children.

About the host

Hosted by Rachel

Host profile image
We LOVE San Diego! The sun, the beach, the happy people all make San Diego such a great place to live, work, but above all, vacation! We have so many happy memories in San Diego, and while we're away, it makes us happy to open our home to others who want to experience the surf, sun, and R&R San Diego has to offer.

Why they chose this property

We are centrally located in a quiet residential neighborhood just a quick 15-minute trip from the airport. Close to everything, you'll enjoy the ease in which you can get to all the great destinations: SeaWorld, Balboa Park, downtown, Petco Park and of course miles and miles of beaches! North Park is known for it's great coffee shops, unique restaurants, and artsy village feel. We also appreciate our safe neighborhood, full of locals out jogging, dog walking and strolling the sidewalks. Having a huge, new park just a block away is so convenient.

What makes this property unique

One block away sports a secluded little park, 1 mile away and you'll find days worth of activities at Balboa Park. We love morning walks to one of the numerous, local coffee shops. Drinking coffee on the front porch swing while watching the friendly neighbors out jogging, dog walking and frequent baby strollers is always treat. Mostly, we love the fresh air. We eat as many meals as possible outside on the back patio...evenings under the twinkling lights make us happy.
