Beautiful home

My husband and I, our sons and their wives came from all over the country to attend a family celebration of life in San Diego. The home was beautiful! Very spacious and private. There is an amazing view from the balcony, a sun-filled patio, and a quiet courtyard that's perfect for reading and quiet reflection. I would not hesitate to stay here again.

Cute eclectic property!

We had the best time at this property - it’s comfortable and spacious. The outside gardens were beautiful and the view from the veranda was spectacular! We didn’t have a car, but had no issues with getting ride shares. Would definitely stay there again!

family time

we stayed in July 2022, there was 11 of us, 3 kids and 8 adults. We were there to go to SD Zoo, Seaworld and Lego Land. The home was a great place for us to hang out and relax in the evenings. There was plenty of room and everyone had there own space if he/she needed down time. The pictures of house are accurate. Loved the decor. Kids loved the lights at night in great room. Thank you for the beautiful home to enjoy.

Absolutely Stellar!

Our extended family needed a place to gather to attend a wedding. Clearly a place decorated by someone with an artistic bent over decades - fabulous and fun! It was perfect with varied places for members to enjoy the house, grounds, and each other. With a full house (12) you wouldn't be able to all dine together (it's not a mansion), but with flexibility there's always a good spot to gather, and a great kitchen for food preparation. We wish we had more time to spend there! Hosts were communicative and accommodating.

Romantic get away

It was our anniversary gift to ourselves. It was exactly what we were looking for and more. Private, romantic and festive. Fantastic views. Comfortable beds. Plenty of room for our guests. Very festive, fun decorations in the whole house Big relaxing Jacuzzi Tub in the master suite. Very clean. The only one thing we regret - we could not stay longer.

Spectacular and unique getaway

We had a wonderful stay in this beautiful property in The San Diego area. The home is so festive with lots of different areas for gathering. Breathtaking views from the balcony on one side and a cozy patio with a fire pit on the other. The decor in the house was so fun and festive. With four bedrooms there was plenty of room for everyone. Centrally located to La Jolla beach the San Diego zoo and downtown San Diego. I highly recommend this home for any vacation any time of year!

Best getaway!

We had a short stay in San Diego but it felt like a long vacation thanks to this house! They thought of everything in the house from kitchen and bathroom necessities to inviting decor! So much space inside the house and in the garden to spread out or enjoy some time alone away from the rest of the group. Comfy beds and couch, and amazing view from the deck! Definitely will be back! Thank you!!!
