A great place to stay with a friendly host who likes to make your stay a pleasant experience.

Adam has thought of everything to make this a great place to stay. The apartment is well presented and maintained with an appealing decor and well equipped kitchen.There are extra bathroom supplies in cupboards in case you run out and the washing machine and dryer are large and readily available. A car is a distinct advantage to fully utilise the location however you can walk to the beach, some restaurants and other area of interest. We loved the relaxing outdoor area attached to this apartment. It is a well designed haven to suit whatever you want- shade or sun and has been furnished well with comfortable seating and lounges, coffee tables and umbrella. Adam has further added to options by providing night time lighting and a small gas fire pit so it is pleasant to sit out at night also. We thoroughly enjoyed this great place.

Quiet and Comfortable

There are so many positive aspects of this VRBO hideaway. The home is very comfortable with everything you need to make your stay complete, including a simple kitchen, very comfortable mattress and a large shower. It is beautifully decorated with both an overhead fan and wall-mounted air conditioning. Around the corner from the unit is an incredible view of the Del Mar estuary and a partial view of Torrey Pines beach from an elevated patio with a fire pit and comfortable seating. Lastly, the host (Adam) is easy to reach and is quick to respond to all questions. We had an awesome time there.

Ideal spot in Del Mar

This place is exactly as described. We found it to be fantastic. The host is very personable, and his studio suited us well for our few days of hiking in the area. We hope to return. FIVE STARS ALL AROUND.

We loved it. Very convenient to Surf Park for soccer/ultimate frisbee events. Very nicely appointed— good A/c, appliances, shower, TV etc. We didn’t use laundry but nice to have. Would have been nice to have extra set of towels as they didn’t dry out overnight and we needed to use the same ones for 4 days. But that’s a small thing. Will stay again!

Perfect Stay On The Reserve

My wife and I stayed in the guest studio while visiting Del Mar for a week. The location was perfect for everything outdoors! Bird Rock Coffee, Roberto’s and a few other bar/restaurants are all in close walking distance, but the major bonus was having Torrey Pines just a short walk away. We took full advantage of the quiet, and peaceful outdoor space that made us feel miles away from the bustle, all while remaining conveniently located near the freeway to explore all that San Diego has to offer!

A Perfect Place for a Vacation

Adam Gevanthor was a great host. Adam was available if we needed anything. The studio is adorable and just perfect for us. It is well furnished and tastefully decorated. It also includes bedding, bath and kitchen towels, kitchen and bathroom supplies and cookware and a washer and dryer in the garage. Most convenient. It is a great location. We walked to the beach (Torrey Pines State Beach and Del Mar South Beach). Adam told us about a loop to walk in his neighborhood (check out the architecture), which we walked several times and the last time, we watched the sunset. It was beautiful. The studio location was a five-minute drive to Torrey Pines State Natural Reserve, which we visited three times. Our favorite hike was the Guy Fleming Trail. The views are breathtaking. We also hiked the Torrey Pines State Natural Reserve Extension (MAR Scenic Trail and overlook). It was an enjoyable hike. We took public transportation to Petco Park to watch the Padres. We visited Birch Aquarium, Balboa Park, San Diego Zoo and the Museum of Making Music in Carlsbad. We also visited San Diego Botanic Garden in Encinitas (which Adam recommended to us). A twenty minute or less drive to each of these places. We ate at Oggi's, Jake's, The Grill at Torrey Pines and Handel's Ice Cream. We so enjoyed our conversations with Adam and also pet his dog Slate (a beautiful husky). We spent two weeks at the studio in July 2023 and had the best vacation. Thank you Adam and Slate!

Very comfortable, small, well located property

The location is very convenient. We are walkers and from this property were able to walk to the beach, along the beach to Del Mar and then back to the property on along Hwy 101. It was also a very short drive to the Torrey Pines Reserve. From the parking lot we walked/hiked up the hill, experienced most of the trails and beautiful views. From there we walked the trails down to the beach and then back to the parking lot. The unit itself is very small, but for the two of us it was fine. The king bed is very comfortable. The kitchen is a little sparse, but functional. The dedicated upstairs patio was a bonus.

Perfect for a romantic getaway

Just enough space for two! Kitchenette had all you needed for small meals and beverages. We opted to cook breakfast and make our own coffee, all other meals were out (Jake’s in Del Mar was fantastic). The neighborhood is very cool and it was fun just driving around checking out all the interesting architecture. It’s a very quiet area. Location was really convenient, close to freeway to get to other areas. You can walk to a few restaurants, coffee shop and a liquor/convenience store. Parking was easy. Host Adam was very responsive but didn’t need to contact much as the property was well appointed. We absolutely plan to return.

Lovely Little Hideaway!

We spent 10 nights in this lovely studio while babysitting our grandchildren nearby. Great location! The studio is perfect for a couple. It's a separate structure from the house, so we didn't worry about having the TV too loud or listening to people in the main house. The studio is bright and clean. Good sized bathroom, comfy king bed, relaxing living room/kitchen. The outside gardens and rooftop patio are such an added bonus. Adam has thought of everything and he is a gracious and accommodating host. We will definitely stay again and recommend it to the other set of grandparents! Thanks, Adam, for a wonderful stay!

SD vacation

We enjoyed a wonderful week here. Couldn’t ask for a better location. Easy access to shopping and beaches. Very well equipped with everything you need. And the rooftop deck and fire pit were very relaxing and peaceful. And the sunsets were amazing. Adam is a very friendly and thoughtful host. Bought us a nice bottle of Olive oil from Baker & Olive. Thank you Adam!! And Slate, at first he seemed very intimidating but a little nibble of bacon and he was our best friend!! Beautiful dog😊We hope that we get a chance to return someday. The Hudnall’s
