A quirky space!

We loved our stay in this retro decorated home! The kitchen was well stocked so we could make brunch and sit around at the dining table! We also loved the beds firmness and layout of the home. Dean was super communicative and helpful as well. Would highly recommend this space for groups of 4!

Great location, beautiful yard and comfy home

Dean's home was clean, in good working condition and full of charm. The home was the perfect size for an extended stay for mostly myself and at times, one other person. Despite being on a busier street, no overnight noise. I enjoyed the walkability for groceries, coffee, restaurants and the proximity to the freeways for broader San Diego. Dean was super responsive to questions and one tiny issue and I'd love to stay here again. Thanks for a great visit!

An Excellent Stay

Everything was great. The house is so cute, in a nice neighborhood for walking and a close drive to everything, too. Beds are super comfortable, kitchen with everything you need, easy communications with owner, fun ambiance. I would definitely stay here again if back in San Diego. I loved Santos Coffee within a 10 min walk and my daughter loved Saigon Coffee a short drive or maybe a 20 min walk away. I highly recommend!

Lovely property close to highways and restaurants to walk to.

We loved the property but did not find the living room furniture very comfortable. The couch was too low. There was spilt coffee stains in the closet in the front bedroom.Trash cans in home were undersized. Could only find one in the kitchen. And it was too small. Utensils in kitchen were dirty.Loved the dressers in the bedroom. Plenty of storage, plenty of pillows and blankets. Lock was easy to use. Backyard was very nice. Nice water pressure.

San Diego Adventure

The property is charming, clean, and spacious. All the amenities were as mentioned, and the appointments were convenient and pleasing. Well located and near many points of interest. Our Host, Dean, was very helpful in accommodating our minimal needs. Since he lives close by, he was able to quickly address a minor issue about the bedroom lights. Altogether, a wonderful experience! We're hoping to visit this property again!

Eclectic Oasis

Dean’s home is utterly charming! From his eclectic and funky art pieces, serene backyard, and kind communication, we couldn’t recommend staying here enough. It will teleport you to a 1950-1960 vibe. Fantastic mid-century modern furniture, and a Zen feeling - especially in the back yard. There’s tons of space and it’s walkable to all the best places in North Park. Will definitely be back!

Ideal Base for Exploring San Diego

We really liked this property. When we opened the front door and turned on the lights, we were delighted that everything was just as pictured. The bungalow had just about everything for a comfortable five-night stay. I appreciated having filtered cold water in the kitchen, so I didn't have to buy bottled water. The washer/dryer came in handy, allowing us to do a load of laundry before heading to our next stop in SoCal. (The bathroom is on the smaller side, but it didn't pose any problem for us. If I remember correctly, there are no grab bars in or around the tub, which might be helpful information for those who would need support to get in and out of a tub.) If we weren't so busy sightseeing, we probably would have spent a lot more time in the lovely, tranquil backyard. The property is situated in a nice neighborhood, within walking distance to a number of good restaurants on Upas Street, and close to Balboa Park. It is also easy to get on the freeway, so it never took us long to go anywhere (Little Italy, La Jolla Cove, Coronado Island, etc.). Dean's communication was timely and clear. I'd definitely like to return to this property the next time we visit San Diego.

Purple Panache in San Diego

This beautifully appointed mid-century modern bungalow is in North Park, close to everything. I was here to move my daughter out of her freshman dorm (SDSU) and needed a home base close to campus, the storage unit, the airport, and fun stuff. This place was perfect. Most importantly, we wanted a clean quiet space for us to relax and for my daughter to finish an online exam. We couldn’t have asked for a better place. It is so comfortable and clean. We had plenty of space (2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, big table, outdoor space) and felt right at home. We loved all the decor, the pops of color. Everything we needed was here. The host was very responsive. I would definitely stay here again!

About the host

Hosted by Dean Burrows

Hi! My name is Dean Burrows. I've been an independent real estate sales broker (Turn Key Real Estate) in San Diego for about 30 years. I've also managed rental properties for decades, and was an all 5 star "Super Host" on a platform that made me crazy, and rhymes with ErrorBnB. So happy to be with the HomeAway family. I'm a home remodel, and furniture consignment store, junkie. And love to entertain. So, hosting vacation rentals is right up my alley.

Why they chose this property

Rarely does one get the opportunity to enjoy a meticulously remodeled property, designed with the traveler in mind. A perfect blend of 1920's architecture with a Mid Century Modern flair. In America's Finest City's most popular Hipster neighborhoods - North Park and South Park.

My other property is VRBO1551179, a North Park fountain courtyard studio with lots and lots of 5 star ratings - about 6 blocks from The Purple Panache.

What makes this property unique

Location. Location. Location.

Close enough to walk to everything, but just far enough away to avoid the noise and parking issues.

And the house and garden are beyond awesome.
