The house was great! It was a little warm in the afternoons/evenings but opening the door cooled it off rather quickly. The beds were comfortable and the property was nice and clean. The air conditioning in the master bedroom and the guest bathroom fan were very loud but fortunately we didn't need to use them too much. The icemaker in the freezer wasn't working which was a bit of a bummer but overall the property suited our purposes nicely and we enjoyed our stay.

Family Vacation in San Diego

We wanted to get out of CO for an end of summer family before school started backup. This house was in such a great centralized location. It was very close to old town and beaches were 15-20 mins away. There were good restaurants and shops all nearby. The owner, Jimmy, was very responsive and courteous. We had an overall excellent stay here and would recommend to others.

Most enjoyable VRBO ever!

We rented this house for a surprise 50th birthday for one of my best friends. It was roomy enough and comfortable for 5 adults to spend the weekend. The owner was very friendly and available any time we needed anything, including running an iron over to us when we needed it and replacing the propane tank on the grill when it was empty. Highly recommend! 10 stars! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Quick getaway

We loved the location & enjoyed how quickly we could get to see all that we wanted to see. Only issue was Living Room tv was slow to stream & seemed to have WIFI issues, bedroom TV had no issues so we were able to watch Thursday night football in there :) this is my 2nd time renting from host as I had previously stayed in smaller unit. Look forward to booking unit again.

Host is incredibly kind!

The accommodations were perfect for our party of five, including a room with two beds that 25 year old best friends were able to share while still having their own beds. But even more impressive than the accommodations was the kindness of Jimmy, the host! Our 25 year old daughter had some special medical considerations that Jimmy bent over backwards to help us with so that our daughter was able to join us on this trip! His housekeeper also went above and beyond to help us with the need. Truly special people and I would recommend any home Jimmy manages.

Cozy SoCal Cottage!

My family spent a long weekend in San Diego and enjoyed this house as our respite spot. Comfortable rooms and nice living areas ensured we all got to spend lots of time together. This home offered many amenities that made our stay all the more enjoyable - there is even a piano! This was a great location for us because we found ourselves traveling south to downtown SD and also north to the La Jolla/Del Mar areas and this was a perfect middle spot. The only snafu we encountered was WiFi that could not sustain any connection for our devices or for using the streaming services on the tv. Truly, we enjoyed our stay very much and would likely stay here again in the future!

Great location

My softball teammates and I stayed at this residence while competing in a tournament in Santee. The residence was very clean and tidy. The neighborhood was very quiet. The property owner stayed in contact and replied to emails/messages quickly. The only side note is to be aware of when Sea World has their fireworks show. It scared us on the first night there with the first BOOM! With that being said, you can go out onto the front lawn and watch the fireworks!

Great location

This was a great little holiday house. Perfect location in a quiet, safe neighborhood. The backyard was a great relaxing area with some toys for our kids which was a lovely bonus. Host was super responsive, cleaning staff were friendly. Downsides: The place could use some better amenities to make the stay more comfortable. The queen bed was two old spring mattresses stacked on top of each other on a very squeaky bed frame with no box spring. One of us ended up sleeping on the couch because it was so uncomfortable to have two in the bed . There were only 4 pillows in the whole unit and not a lot of kitchen supplies (only a few mugs, glasses etc) so we were doing dishes every day. Overall it was a lovely stay otherwise but would have given 5 stars if some of those upgrades were there.
