Fantastic Experience1

Luis is so easy to work with. And the casita is everything I needed and wanted, both for me and my little 10 lb friend. Fully loaded, great location, quiet, easy access to anywhere you wish to go in San Diego. Already planning my next stay there. Thanks, Luis!

Great home base for family trips

We stayed here over the holidays with two young children. Hosts: Super responsive. This unit shares a wall to the main home so they are there when you need them, but entirely separated/private. Very understanding of kiddos. Home: Private backyard is huge, great for dinners and a nice way to relax in the sun. Good set up for a family with well-equipped kitchen and giant washer/dryer. Jacuzzi tub is a treat. Easy access to the outside garbage and other things you'd need for a longer term stay. Location: This was great for us since it was near family. If you know SD you know you'll need to drive most places, this is convenient to the freeway to get to theme parks etc. All the necessities (grocery, shopping, restaurants) are nearby and it is a nice quiet neighborhood.

We are native to San Diego, larger family with 2 minor children still at home.

Why they chose this property

neighborhood is private, slightly remote in the big city, mostly peaceful and we like to call the area a hidden gem amongst all the busyness.
