We had an excellent stay. The place was just what we needed for a warm getaway from the Midwest. The space had everything you'd need and the backyard patio was a beautiful feature. The location was also superb and felt like a short drive to wherever you needed to go. Next time in San Diego, we'd love to stay again!

We loved our stay. The home was welcoming and made everything easy, with fresh towels, laundry soap, and a dishwasher, which were key for us since we were in town for a trade show. After long days, it was so nice to come back, put our dishes from the show into the dishwasher, throw our tablecloths into the laundry, and truly relax. We spent evenings hanging out as a team around the fire pit out back or in the living room watching something random on Netflix. Sam was very friendly and easy to reach, which made the stay even better.

Our stay was fantastic! Very spacious for our party, and communication with the host was easy and quick. The location was perfect, close enough to the convention center but far from the hustle and bustle of downtown. We also saved money cooking and grilling instead of eating out for every meal. Thank you for everything!

Our team recently had the pleasure of staying at this home for our company retreat, and overall, it was a truly wonderful experience!The home itself is incredibly charming, beautifully decorated, and offers a very welcoming atmosphere. We especially appreciated the fantastic location, which was convenient for our needs, and the ample parking was a huge plus for our group. The thoughtful touch of provided Keurig pods made our mornings so much easier and more enjoyable – a definite highlight! While we didn't get a chance to utilize the outdoor space, it looked absolutely fabulous and very inviting. Having blackout shades was so great! We did note a couple of minor points that, if addressed, would elevate the stay even further, particularly for business travelers or groups. In the bathroom attached to the bedroom I used, there wasn't any shelf or storage space for personal hygiene products, which meant my toiletries and makeup bag had to stay on the floor. Additionally, a hook or designated hanging area for business attire in that bedroom would have been incredibly helpful. Lastly, when we went to do a load of laundry, we found there were no laundry detergent tabs provided.These are small things, but they would significantly enhance the comfort and convenience for future guests. Despite these minor observations, we had a fantastic stay and found the home to be a great fit for our company retreat. We would certainly recommend it!
