Minutes away from the Downtown/Gaslamp district, Old Town, Little Italy, San Diego Convention Center, World Famous San Diego Zoo, Balboa park, Museums, Sea World, Beaches, Hiking and more.
Perfect getaway for families or individuals who are interested in experiencing the best living that San Diego has to offer.
Guests will have full access to the home and awesome front porch. There is a backyard that is a shared space with a fire pit and lounge area.
We will try to be available to greet you upon your check in however in the event we are not available, we have a keypad entry system and will send you a code prior to arrival. We will be available to answer questions throughout your stay should you have any.
Hillcrest/Mission Hills is an upscale neighborhood in San Diego, California, USA. It is located on hills just south of the San Diego River valley and north of downtown San Diego, overlooking Old Town, Balboa Park, Downtown San Diego, and San Diego Bay. Close to all the major attractions including Petco Park, Sea World, the San Diego Zoo, Convention Center, Seaport Village and more.
Hillcrest is known for being centrally located to great restaurants, cafés, bars, clubs, trendy stores and many other locally owned business. The home is within walking distance to two major grocery stores as well.
The home is centrally located to get to anywhere in San Diego. The Coaster and Amtrak trains are within five miles, the airport is a short Uber/LYFT drive away, there are public bikes and scooters to rent around the neighborhood and of course there is the bus line as well. Because of the location and activities in this central location, many guests don't need a vehicle at all. As mentioned above, one parking permit will be provided upon check in.
Parking is out front and one permit will be provided upon check in. Please make sure you don't park in the metered spots as you can get a ticket! Typically, if nothing is available immediately in front of the home, parking can be found further down on the street and worse case scenario, the next street over. Weekends are the worst and during mid-week, there are usually plenty of spots.
The home is perfect for a quiet family vacation. We do not host guests to have parties.
Some fun games can be located in the dining room buffet. TV and fan remotes are located in drawers near the location of the TV. Fireplace is gas and there is a key required to turn it on along with a lighter. Please keep key and lighters away from children. Appliances are easy to use. Please leave pocket doors from dining to living room open as they tend to get stuck sometimes if not closed properly.
