About this property

Escape Under the Palms at Casita Las Palmas Studio Retreat

Discover your perfect getaway in this charming studio, nestled in the tranquil community of Bonita, just minutes south of vibrant downtown San Diego and conveniently located near the freeway for easy and quick access to all areas of the county.
Designed for comfort and relaxation, this cozy studio features a plush king bed, a fully equipped kitchen for your culinary needs, and a bathroom with shower. Step outside to a sparkling swimming pool, picnic tables, and a beautifully landscaped outdoor haven on our safely gated 2½-acre property. On a warm day, refresh yourself in the Oasis, a shaded seating area beneath stately palm trees, refreshed by cooling ocean breezes on warm days. As evening falls, gather around the intimate fire pit to enjoy the starry nights.

The property is alive with the songs of many birds, adding to the serene ambiance, and three friendly dogs who call this retreat home. Kizzy, our resident greeter, is eager to be your loyal companion during your stay. The studio is located next to our family home, and we, the owners, are delighted to welcome you personally and love seeing our guests enjoy the property’s amenities. While the studio offers a private and comfortable space, please note that it is not a secluded retreat. We often spend time in the shared garden and pool areas, and if you prefer a completely isolated stay without seeing us around the property, this studio may not be the best fit for you. However, if you’re looking for a warm, welcoming environment with a touch of furry hospitality, this is the perfect blend of comfort, nature, and community. Book now for an unforgettable retreat!
If you have any questions, please send an “inquiry” through the VRBO application. We would be glad to hear from you and usually respond the same day.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Our host Jenny, was very welcoming, and the stay was exactly what we'd hoped for. She was there for any questions, or recommendations, and encouraged us to enjoy the property. She left fresh eggs, from the chickens, tangelos from their tree, and cut us some aloe, in case we got a sunburn. Would definitely recommend, especially if you love dogs. They have three, but we were spent the most time, playing with Kizzy, he was so much fun, and such a good boy

Location, location, location! We couldn't have asked for a better stay. From the warm welcome by the entire family (including the adorable dogs) to the farm-fresh eggs and lemons, Jenny is an incredible host. The refreshing pool and comfortable AC were perfect. We loved her local recommendations so much we ended up visiting almost all of them!

The host was very friendly and welcoming as were her three dogs. If you're allergic, you may wish to mention this to her or just be mindful there are dogs here but they were very sweet pups.We got a tour of the property and she left fresh limes from her orchard and eggs from her chickens. The casita and location were perfect for our needs - we were visiting my Mom who lives in the area. The bed was comfortable and I was able to make my coffee. ;) The space felt like a very large studio apartment with all the bare essentials (and then some).

Our stay in Bonita was truly delightful. The casita was clean and well equipped with plush linens and towels, including all amenities mentioned in the description. What wasnt mentioned were the exceptional touches like plants and handpicked flowers. Fruits from their garden and fresh eggs straight from the the henhouse where also in the fridge for our arrival! We were so pleased to be in a safe and gated home inside 2 acres of serenity with mature landscaping, a lovely pool and the sweetest dogs to welcome us.

Exceptional environment and hospitality services

A hidden gem of tranquility in an urban setting. Jenny and her entire family were very accommodating and welcoming, not to mention generous with access to additional amenities. Worth every penny and perfectly located to my family’s location. Would recommend for a couple or family of 3 comfortably with air mattress they would provide. I will book again if available on my next visit. Thank you to the Sanchez family for an exceptional experience.
