Wonderful rental
We had an amazing week at this location. It is located in a really quiet neighborhood which was perfect for our family vacation. There is a park at a walking distance, but we didn't get to go there often since there was plenty of stuff to play with at the house. I highly recommend this place.

Quiet and clean place to stay
My family and I stayed here a few days while some work was being done on our house, we are familiar with this neighborhood. It is nice and quiet and clean and had all the kitchen and bath things needed. The only issue we had was the hot tub not working. I know not a big problem, but It was something important to us, and a reason we chose this property over others. The property manager tried to get it fixed but there were some communication delays and ultimately not able to really use the hot tub as intended. They did kindly heat the entire pool on the last evening as an alternative. Overall a good value at a nice house in a safe and peaceful location I would definitely recommend for familes. Also, respectfully, this house is in San Carlos, not Del Cerro.

Absolutely amazing
Beautiful, clean house in a quiet neighborhood but close enough to all the main San Diego attractions! Communication was absolutely amazing. Fast responses to any questions we had prior to our stay and easy to get a hold of if needed during the stay.
Equipped with everything you could possibly need for your stay. Made traveling with 4 little kids a lot easier! Would highly recommend and book again for future trips!

I can honestly say when I get these surveys for places I have stayed I rarely fill them out. But I needed to fill this one out to tell everyone how amazing this home and hosts are. Our family is still taking about how beautiful, organized, accessible, fun, and amazing this home is. We had the most amazing time staying here. The hosts were so responsive and kind. If you are looking for a home to stay at for your next vacation this is the house for you !

Spent a week at this home and it was perfect. They have countless amenities to make it feel like home. From child utensils to extra propane tanks in the garage, the hosts really go 2 steps beyond! The location was great. Rather quick drives to seaworld & the zoo, very quiet neighborhood! I would stay here again without any hesitation. The host was very quick to respond as well. Our family did not have any issue during our week stay! 10/10.

The property felt so homey from the minute we walked in the front door. The place looks exactly how it does on the advertisement which was a big plus for us. It had all the amenities we needed for our week stay. And as expected, we spent the most time in the pool and hot tub/jacuzzi during the day and night. We had fun-filled stay and can't wait to come back.

The property was absolutely amazing! The rental looked even better than what was shown in the pictures. The home felt like a home away from home and was nice and comfy. The owners were very thoughtful and had everything you could possibly need in the event you forgot something at home. The decor was top notch and the home is very well kept. The homeowner were very pleasant and responsive to any questions and/or requests I had. The neighborhood is very nice, quiet, and the neighbors were friendly. If you are looking for a rental we’re you don’t have to fear if what you will walk into will meet your expectations this is the home for you. My family will definitely return for another stay.
