A Perfect Family Getaway in San Diego!

We had an absolutely amazing stay at this beautiful VRBO home! The living and kitchen areas were spacious and inviting—perfect for relaxing together as a group. The huge TV in the living room was a great touch, and the massage chair and theater room brought that extra bit of luxury we didn’t know we needed.For families, this place is an absolute dream. Our kids had a blast in the well-stocked game room, which kept them entertained for hours. Outside was just as impressive: pickleball, table tennis, a basketball hoop, and best of all—a sparkling clean swimming pool that became the center of our fun.I cannot say enough great things about the host, David. Such a gentleman and a fantastic communicator! He was always available and helpful throughout our stay, which made everything even smoother and more enjoyable.The property had everything we needed and more. We truly felt at home and can’t recommend this spot highly enough for families looking for fun, comfort, and unforgettable memories. We’ll definitely book this home again if we get the opportunity!Want to add how long your stay was or highlight any favorite moments from your trip to San Diego? I can sprinkle those in next.

About the host

Hosted by David Alan Walter

Host profile image
Emily (my wife) and I have been living in San Diego for nearly 20 years. We have 2 boys and love that our home is the place that all their friends want to hang out at. We pray over our home for each guest to feel peace and joy while they are here building lasting memories.

Why they chose this property

Quiet, safe residential neighborhood. Our home is on a canyon and surrounded by nature, trees...very tropical and private oasis feel.

Within 1 mile are multiple grocery stores, great restaurants and even a Foster Freeze (our kid's favorite!).

What makes this property unique

The ultimate family fun house! No one has a movie theater as nice with stadium seating recliner chairs and a 10 ft screen. Rarely will you find a pinball machine or shuffleboard table. The bumper pool table converts to a poker table. Outside while grilling on the built in BBQ people can play pickleball or half court basketball.

The ultimate group and multi-generational family gathering home in San Diego!
