We enjoyed our month-long stay at Marcia’s place. It’s comfortable, well-equipped, and decorated with her many colorful paintings. February was the perfect month for watching glorious sunsets from the balcony, as the sun can be seen setting right over the ocean. The front patio is very pleasant for relaxing on warm days. Several grocery stores, beaches, and hiking trails are within a short drive.
Marcia's home is perfect for long term stays, as it is equipped with all the necessities for a thoroughly enjoyable time. I particularly enjoyed sitting on the balcony watching the sunset over the Pacific.
Marcia is so pleasant to deal with and very responsive to any inquires you might have.
I hope to return and have no hesitation in highly recommending this home.

Thank you Joan! It was lovely to meet you and have you for my guest. I hope you will return, I am thrilled to have considerate guests like you!
Marcia’s home is perfect - beautifully presented and thoughtfully filled with everything a family of 3 might need during a 4 week stay. Lovely outside spaces, back and front, the house overlooks a communal pool and jacuzzi (which we used every day). Everyone we met in the neighbourhood was incredibly friendly. A real find. Highly recommend. Thank you Marcia.

About the host
Hosted by Marcia
Welcome to my home! I'm a professional painter, and the home you'll stay in is also my part-time studio. I grew up in Ohio but I love the California lifestyle. Traveling is my passion, so I'm probably in Europe when you're visiting! Enjoy and have fun in my adopted city of San Diego.
Why they chose this property
I was immediately attracted to this home because of the large windows, high ceilings, and all of the LIGHT! Artists love light, it makes everything so bright and cheery. I also loved the "old Hawaii" feel of the community my home is in, as well as the fact that I can be at the beach in 10 minutes. I love to sit on the balcony with a glass of wine to watch the sunsets, too.
