Amazing stay at this home. Traveled with a party of 10 people and the space was perfect for us. Communication with host was great; reachable at all times of the day. The house was nicely decorated and clean. There were fresh lemon/lime and organs trees in the yard and we made fresh orange and lime juice ( with prior approval from host) which was a great add on to our morning breakfast. Would highly recommend this property.

This was a great property for the family to get away. The patio area was wonderful. They had plenty of activities for the kids to do. A very relaxing environment. Easy access to highways. All San Diego’s main attractions are within twenty minutes.

The accommodations were better than advertised. We loved the location. We were close to grocery stores, church, gas, and ramps to the Interstate. The coffee maker was a big hit and fully stocked. I loved having a gas stove to cook on.The owners were very responsive when we had questions.

Overall, we enjoyed our stay. We liked the outdoor area, pool and spa. Through no fault of ours, the screws on a bed frame came out making the bed unusable. While, the host responded to our repair request and said someone would come and repair it that day, they were unable to come, and it did cause us inconvenience. The host apologized and did offer some compensation. The repair was done the next day and we had no further issues.

Graduation weekend.

This property was ideal for our military graduation. We had a few minor issues in which the property manager dealt with right away. It would be nice if the property had a guide book on how things worked around the place. It took us a few days to get things like the spa tirned on and movie projector hooked up.
