You and your guests will enjoy this well-designed and welcoming outdoor space complete with mature shade trees, Saltillo tiles, a walk-up bar with stools, a chiminea-style fireplace, and a group outdoor dining table under an open-beamed covered patio. Mature tropical trees and splashes of colorful Mexican tiles complete the space and add to the feel of this special retreat. After a full day of sightseeing and activities, there is nothing like sipping a cold drink and soaking in the bubbling hot tub while sharing stories of the day’s adventures.

10 / 10Outstanding·Aug 2025
Six long-time girlfriends spent five nights in this charming home. We loved all the indoor and outdoor spaces. The Host provided everything we needed and check-in and check-out was a breeze. The home is so walkable to Old Town and a short walk to the Trolley Station. Many great shops and restaurants within walking distance. Short Uber rides took us everywhere we needed to go. We were very happy with our stay, and the Host is very responsive to questions. 10 stars!
8 / 10Excellent·May 2025
The house was lovely. Getting in and out was inconvenient because of where the locks were.The master bath while lovely to look at was a small layout, had no counter space. The bed sheets were to big for bed, which made it uncomfortable.There was no coffee or water for guests. The filtered water was very slow to come out.

My son and his wife, our daughter and her husband, and our two granddaughters all stayed with us and we had a wonderful time. We could walk to great Mexican and Italian restaurants in Old Town and our little granddaughters loved the Old Town trinket shops and the bunk beds in the house. Everyone liked the hot tub and the beautifully maintained historic adobe house with its big windows and elegant furnishings. The Bluewater rental team is so kind and they were so responsive to us any time we called. We were happy with everyone at Bluewater--and we loved the bright, beautifully decorated house that felt just like home!

My family stayed at this property for a week. We had a great time! The home is nice and cozy and the location is terrific. SD old-town is a block away and where there are many fine restaurants and shops. Many of SD popular tourist places including the downtown district are just a short drive away as well. The home is well kept and the host company is very accessible and responsive. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone looking for a nice place to stay in SD.
