Wonderful Stay

My husband and I came to San Diego for a long weekend and stayed at the property. The property matched the pictures and description to a tee! Check-in was seamless. We drove a large Dodge Ram truck and had no problem fitting in the assigned parking spot. The backyard was very inviting and relaxing! The neighborhood was quaint, safe, and quiet. We enjoyed walking to restaurants and shops! The property was well appointed and we lacked for nothing. It was a great stay! Thank you!

Organizer’s Dream

This was our favorite vacation rental because everything was beautifully organized. From the placement of the furniture to well appointed kitchen, the place had everything that we needed. And, extras that included a hot tub and grill. The location was also perfect for lots of delicious restaurant nearby and short drives to amazing beaches.

Ricardo (owner) very responsive and helpful Condo was clean and well stocked Hot tub was very nice and private Assigned Parking space provided Neutral Small kitchen and sitting room (did not impact us though as we did not spend much time in the condo itself) Con Electrical outlets were minimal. In summary we would recommend this VRBO and would stay here again.

Excellent rental

We moved here for 7 weeks while I was pregnant with my 2 dogs and had to have construction in my house. Ended up having the baby and stayed here with a newborn for a month. Master bedroom is big enough to fit a Snoo and a playpen. Dogs loved the patio that is fenced in. Neighborhood is quiet and everyone wore masks outside. Kitchen is small but it has everything you need. Hot tub is a plus and nice in cold weather. Owner was very responsive and accommodating. Would highly recommend.

Quiet Neighborhood with Easy Access to all the Fun!

Lovely spot in a quiet neighborhood. It was clean and generally well stocked. Lots of amenities nearby. And it was a perfect location for easily and quickly getting around San Diego. Very nice to have dedicated parking (pro tip--bring or rent a small car). They could use to replace the mattress--one side is so broken down I almost rolled off the bed. But the linens were nice and I was very pleased to see allergy/bug covers on the pillows and mattress. Private outdoor area was nice, as well. Didn't get to use it since it was rainy and cold when we were there (yes, in San Diego!) but it was very inviting.

Near Little Italiy & Marina

Central to a lot of the things in San Diego. Freshly appointed studio style space. This is a house that has been sectioned off into a unit with it’s one entrance but the listing is not as transparent about this. This really needs room darkening curtains so that with time change you can catch up on z’s when circadian clock turns on. The mattress was quite hard for our liking. We enjoyed our visit and it’s in a neutral location. Probably not as walkable as we prefer. Count on Uber.

A hidden treasure

I originally booked a beach VRBO 2 months in advance & the owner canceled 2-3 weeks before my trip. Made up some lie in broken English as to why. My trip was slated for a holiday week, so there were no other vacation rentals ON the beach available to me with the short notice. So I looked around to see what else is in San Diego, and came across this hidden treasure. It is way nicer than anything near the beach anyway. It is adorably decorated, with the perfect yard, which was very important to me, to have private space for my dogs & I. The jacuzzi was a bonus. I was greeted with tastefully done Christmas decor, & bottled water. My drive was long due to the SWA issue causing more cars to be on the road, so appreciated when I walked in! I didn’t know much about this area, I thought there would be cute little shops, kind of like in Laguna. I was wrong! Nothing like that in Hillcrest. But the neighborhood was so much better than I expected! I took at least 30 photos on my walks in the neighborhood daily, because everybody’s flowers were so nice. There was a nearby coffee shop “Espresso Mio” with the best customer service, and great coffee! How nice to walk just a block there. Anything you might want to go do and see is easy to get to from this location, & because you have your own parking spot, you never have to worry about coming back and searching for parking. I had just recovered from Covid, after not getting sick for 3 years, and thought how wonderful it was that I recovered in time for my trip. I had already missed Christmas with my family, and all my other holiday plans! But it turns out, a few days into my trip, I got Covid rebound!!! It was horrible to be sick instead of having fun. But the GREAT thing was, that I was in this peaceful, clean, charming spot to heal in. My dogs loved the little yard, and their daily walks in between my naps. I was able to easily stay away from other humans, make food in the little kitchen & just get myself better. It’s a good thing I rented this nicer place, since I ended up seeing so much of it! Comfortable bed. Amazing fluffy towels. Responsive owner. Perfect space for 2 adults or in my case 1 adult & 2 dogs. I definitely need to come back, since I did not get to see any of my friends I had plans with, or go to the beach, or go to La Jolla for dinner. I’ll be returning to do all those this & enjoy this gem again!
