We stayed at this home for 5 nights and 6 days with a team of 7 while attending the San Diego Food Show.Although there were a few minor inconveniences, overall the house was very comfortable and well suited for our stay.The view was beautiful, and the home provided a pleasant and relaxing environment after long workdays. We had no major issues and enjoyed our time there.If we visit San Diego again with family, we would definitely consider booking this place again. Thank you for a great stay!

Disliked: Cleanliness
Arrived to filthy windows, floors and overall cleanliness was beyond substandard. Host did responded promptly throughout but I spent the first 4 days of 10 managing the property and related deficiencies and then one of the principals of the host chimed in to make my family feel like we were to blame - - what? The house is tired and are the pictures are not representative of the actual condition. Very noisy as location is right beside major road. There rooms were all a decent size.

Fun minus sun

Great property for hosting our group of 9. Game room area was fun for 3 kids and the basketball hoop sauna were a fun bonus. Floors were swept but not mopped clean so when you took your shoes off (as the sign asked) your feet got very dirty. House was very comfortable and made it easy to enjoy being inside (no sun while we rented). Very close to restaurants of Old Town and delivery options. Kitchen was well appointed to cook in. Overall a great experience and we would return.

A Beautiful House on a Hill

A very spacious home with beautiful views of the bay and airport. We had ten adults and 2 children, and it was perfect for our group. The house is located close to so many things. It was a very clean home with a game room and sauna. The 2 children had room to run on the gated driveway. We enjoyed it so much.

Beautiful Hillside Home

Let me start by saying, if you have any problems with stairs, this place is NOT for you!! This hilltop home is absolutely beautiful and has excellent views. There were 8 adults in our group; all men. There were enough “beds” to accommodate all of them. Kitchen was pretty much stocked, though if you are cooking for a large group, there aren’t many pots/pans for large meals. Home was not as thoroughly clean as I would have expected it to be - lots of dirt/dust and crud under beds. Master bathroom is amazing but does give a sewer-like smell quite often. Parking is scarce if you have more than one vehicle or a larger sedan. They do have a small “driveway” but our Chevy Malibu barely fit in it. Street parking always seems to be occupied. We attempted the steep hillside driveway once and never did it again! Would not recommend using it. Overall, this place is beautiful and convenient to the airport and freeways, but no where near a grocery store or WalMart/Target. Would very likely stay here again if we come back to SD for anything!

Excellent holiday house

This house was the perfect fit for a multigenerational group coming from multiple locations. The house is centrally located to the zoo, breweries and the airport. The fire pit was a huge evening draw. The house was as described and any questions we had prior to the visit or during were always quickly answered.
