Great location

Loved the location of this property, walking distance to tons of shops, restaurants, bars and markets. The property itself is a little dated, but comfortable. We had several issues with the lock box malfunctioning but was able to get help on the phone via the property management company. Would stay here again.

Terrific location and comfortable home

We came to San Diego Daft Christmas with our son… Who lives in San Diego.The house was perfect for our needs. The location was fantastic. Communication and check-in/check out was seamless. I really appreciated the warmth and immediate feedback I received from the host. There were no concerns at our stay at all. It was delightful to be one block away from Little Italy. Area is clean and many restaurants within walking distance. Bets were super comfortable.

Perfect Women's Trip Getaway!

We loved the location of the house! We were able to walk to the piazza every day, down to the harbor, to the ticket booths for the Hop on Hop off bus and stops, harbor cruises, etc. The house was charming and had room for us to spread out. The patio was so cute and we enjoyed sitting down there. Having a parking spot right at the house was ideal. We were a few minutes from the airport which was a huge plus too. It was even better than we had hoped it would be!

Amazing location and responsive property management

We had a great stay. Loved playing poker and going out for drinks and dinner near by. The location was amazing and when we had a problem with the dishwasher not working it was resolved very quickly. Would definitely stay again

In the heart

This home was in the heart of Little Italy. It was a perfect place to stay and never have to drive to eat drink or explore the city. We would definitely stay again!

Truly a Charmer!

We were a group of 5 ladies and we were so happy with Little Italy Charmer. Of course the location is perfect and close to major roads, attractions and all that Little Italy has to offer. There is so much living space in the house and outside in back. Also in front are 2 chairs and a beautiful tree. This is an older home but perfect for us who grew up in older homes. Super clean and spacious. We enjoyed the restaurants that were close by also. Filippi"s Pizza Grotto was wonderful and right behind the house as well as gelato places, Italian Piazza and many more enjoyable restaurants. Having the driveway so close was perfect for lugging things in. We would give the highest marks and definitely book this little Charmer again.

Little Italy Charmer

Older home located in the heart of Little Italy. Great location! Not great response from Vacasa (property manager) when the AC busted. Garbage Disposal had a nasty smell coming from it when we first got there.

San Diego Little Italy with family

Very nice property, well located on a quiet block in a very active area with lots of restaurants. Also close to the waterfront and easy access to freeway to visit other locations such as the zoo and seaworld. House was bright and clean, lots of charm and roomy. Everyone enjoyed our stay.

Little Italy-big fun

Right in the middle of Little Italy, but still manages to be quiet and relaxing.. It had all the amenities I expected and more. Everything was within easy walking distance, include the pickup spot for the Hop on Hop off Trolley. The parking spots were a real plus as the street parking was limited in the area. The deck was great for people watching and the garden was beautiful and a nice place for relaxing. Don’t miss the farmer’s market a block away on Wednesday and Saturday morning.

Little Italy stay

I chose to stay here based on location and it did not dissapoint. The house is located within walking distance to many resturaunts and all the hustle and bustle of Little Italy. The house was clean and had everything I needed. I only stayed for one night but it would be a great rental for multiple nights. I would definitely recomend this rental to any one visiting San Diego.

Great Place for Girl's Trip

This house lives up to its name, it is truly charming and the location is amazing. Just steps away from amazing food, coffee, and gelato. It is a gem tucked back into a popular area. The beds were comfortable and we loved lounging in the spacious living room together. It was well stocked, had lots of mirrors and space to get ready, and was clean and well-stocked. We were so glad we booked here!

Little Italy Older Home

The home was clean but smelled old. Fun location but very noisy…located on a busy street with much traffic and people walking by all day. If you’re looking for a city experience then this is the place. Had trouble with the Roku TV but finally got a tech’s help on our last night.
