Fabulous

Great location, great hosts. Accommodation was immaculate, had everything we needed for our 2 weeks stay. Little extras were a bonus, especially as we travelled from UK. 10mins walk from beach with coffee shop and restaurants minutes away. Would definitely recommend booking this property..

Perfect despite the hurricane!

Great location and the best set up house we have ever rented. Everything just worked. Super well equipped and immaculate. Well located for beach without the noise of the main board walk and super views from terraces. Hosts were great at comms even regarding hurricane Hilary which struck during our stay. Love the area and loved the house. Stayed with our 11 and 13 year old. Thanks so much.

Great outdoor spaces with views

This studio is in a great location - close to the beach and Torrey Pines Reserve. There are many good restaurants in Del Mar a short distance away. Views over lagoon from the spacious and well furnished private upper decks. The studio is comfortably furnished and stylishly decorated with colourful modern art. The kitchen is well set up for two people. Adam our host was friendly and helpful. We will definitely stay in this studio again on our next visit to San Diego.
